The Dreadful Path From "Omg I Love This Chapter So Much" To "If I Read It Once Again And Find Yet Another

Impossible. That's the best feeling ❤️

Name a better feeling than getting the first comment on a fic you were uncertain about and knowing that at least one person liked the tiny piece of your brain that you put on the internet

YEAH YOU TELL THAT BITCH (affectionate) ❤️

editor brain: so what if--

me: nope.

editor brain: i don't think this is quite--

me: zip.

editor brain: we should probably fix--

me: we have written over 800 words in the past 18 hours, at least a third of which was spent sleeping. we still have more new words in us. do you REALLY want to knock our momentum away when we JUST GOT IT BACK????

editor brain: ...no.

me: yeah. that's what i thought.

me: bitch.

I would love to know whether it was the writers' or Kayvan Novak's idea to have Nandor clutch Guillermo's sweater the entire time while the latter is hiding from the Baron in s5

Chapter 19 of "Spawn Me the Details" now online 🥳

In which you find a dead spider, lick it, and get distracted by succubus saliva.

"Spawn Me the Details" on AO3 - Summary

As Astarion is snatched from the streets of Baldur's Gate, another one of Cazador's spawn gets taken. You.It can't have been more than a few months since that fateful night at the tavern, and now you find yourself hiding behind a bush while he gallivants through the forest with his new allies. As the group is passing by, a voice pierces through your mind. Follow them. You need to stay close. It's the last thing you want to do - follow the man who led you to your doom. But it seems like you have no choice in the matter, if that tingle in your brain is anything to go by...

Hope you have as much fun reading as I had writing it. 💕

Give it a read if you're up for vampire shenanigans and emotional damage 😎✨️

Made a spell for my dear friend who gets really excited about their interests in our group chats

Making myself sad while editing Chapter 6 of my WWDITS fix it, which is basically Nandor and Guillermo watching Season 5

I mean, imagine Nandor watching how Guillermo was turned. That he was buying his turning from anyone who would offer, just getting it over with in a supermarket backroom. To see how low Guillermo had stooped for it.

It's just so sad. I need to get to the fluff soon. XD

(Also quick reminder that this is not me abandoning my Astarion longfics. This is just a detour. I will be back.)

obviously i’m the one choosing for her to do this but at some point shadowheart casting guidance every time you speak to somebody displays a quite funny lack of confidence

I have a word document where teenie-me collected all the remarks on her animexx fanfic. This document is almost 20 years old.

I wouldn't delete it if you put a gun on my head.

(I lost the story eventually, but you can be sure I still have the comments xD)

"I didn't comment on a fic I liked because I don't think the author would care or remember my comment anyway". fanfic writer here, I still remember comments I got on my fics from seven years ago. I still think about them and they still make me smile. your kind comments are what motivates us and what helps us keep writing.

I personally know writers who take screenshot and print out comments they got from their readers.

TL;DR comments matter to us writers more than you think. if you like a fanfic, never be shy to let the author know ♡

Somehow I ended up being both 💁‍♀️

There are two types of writers:

1. 'It's fiction, it doesn't need to make sense!'

2. 'I didn't account for the rotation of the planet and how that affects the constalations while my characters stargazed at different times of year, I have failed as a writer, and this entire thing is trash'

This!

im just not convinced humans were ever meant to be this busy
