Chapter 5 Of Unto The Labyrinth Is Up!!! Will Make An Official Post In The Morning Hehe

Got this on my main and had permission to post here!

This is from the next chapter of The Town of Anywhere by the way!

This is the magic lucky word count. Reblog for creativity juice. It might even work, who knows.

I enjoy the Two Cakes Philosophy and I believe it deserves its place enshrined in fandom culture.

Forgive me for the extended metaphor but I also want to simultaneously celebrate what I’m calling Bakery Display Case Philosophy. You know when you walk into a bakery and the display case is full of beautiful treats? And there’s a variety of different colors, textures, and flavors to discover? And that’s so deeply exciting?

You might say to yourself, “No one is going to want to read this pairing. No one is going to want to want a character study of that character. No one wants genfic in this fandom, only shipfic.”

And you might use that to discourage yourself from writing a certain fic.

Fandoms, like bakeries, need cakes and cookies and éclairs and cream puffs and shortbread and brownies and pies and tarts and petit fours and turnovers and cinnamon rolls and madeleines and meringues—and so many other things—to survive.

Write your dark chocolate pistachio croissant fic. Your fandom needs it actually.

Unto the Labyrinth Chapter 6 is up!

Anxiety overtook Maze. She thumbed her ring, fingers trembling.

She was up.

Finally, the applause for the District 2 boy began dying down, and someone wearing all black at the side of the stage motioned to Maze, indicating she was next.

She sat up straight and prepared to stand up, moving her thumb over her ring one last time. Her heart pounded in her chest.

“And now, for someone who we’ve been curious about since her Reaping, and even more curious about since the tribute parade,” Caesar announced. “The one and only, Maze Donahue, from District 3!”

Maze took a deep breath, stood up, and walked out onto the stage to thunderous applause.

Relationships: OC & OC, Beetee Latier & OC

Summary: “Maze Donahue always thought she would be lonely forever. No one wanted to be friends with a troublesome orphan with a penchant for pranks. But when the unthinkable happens and she is Reaped for the 57th Hunger Games, she is shocked to find people taking an interest in her for the first time ever - the Capitol, her mentor Beetee, and even other tributes. She must deal with the impermanence of this social support, including the deaths of her allies, and try to survive the horrors of the Hunger Games and all that comes afterwards.

But no matter what, she won’t ever be alone again.”

Happy birthday to Maze Donahue from Unto the Labyrinth!

😈 for the writing asks

And 🦅 too. seems appropriate for blue bird writing :)

😈 Has there been a point in a story where you did something just to be playfully mean to your readers?

I’d say Chapter 3 and 4 of Ties of Blood and Water are just that. Putting poor Roderich through hell hehehe :P (he only kind of deserved it)

🦅 Do you outline fics or fly by the seat of your pants?

I’m an outliner! The only exception to this is The Town of Anywhere, which isn’t fully outlined but I have the next 10 or so chapters outlined
