Update Tuesday - Tumblr Posts

Heya! I did a thing!!!

So, yesterday I posted a thing on my writing side blog, @GlasScribbles!!

It's called Sanguine, because I'm a language nerd, and it started off as a self indulgent fanfic years ago, but now it's somehow part of my paranormal romance universe? I'm not sure how, yet, though.

If you're curious about my writing style and don't mind an undetermined amount of spice, then please feel free to check it out here!

Warning: I have not plotted this one out. I'm literally using it to get back into the habit of writing more often, so there may be small inconsistencies as the story progresses and I'll be swapping POVs between the male and female characters. There will be instant lust, smut/spice (but i can't promise it will be well written), and there's potential for violence later, but I don't have any concrete ideas for that yet.

Anyway, if you do check it out, would you let me know what you think? Thank you!

This show (not this precise episode, but the show all together) was my gateway into fandom and fan fiction.

I started watching 5 or 6 years after the series finished and I wasn't satisfied with the ending. I want upset with how it ended, per se, but with the fact that it was done now and I wouldn't be getting any more. So I turned to the internet and found a fan fic site devoted to Spike (can't remember what it was called now, but I'm sure i have it written down somewhere). The stories didn't have to be spicy, (although many were) but they all had to focus on Spike.

The idea that I could take these characters and stories that I loved and tell their story at a new/different angle wasn't entirely a new idea, but the fact that other people were doing it, too? That was a special discovery.

So, yeah - BtVS was my gateway drug.

What was yours?
