20 Questions for Fic Writers
Thanks for tagging me, @crestfallercanyon !
How many works do you have on AO3? 82.
What’s your total A03 word count? 648,300 (quite pleased with that - a lot of words of fic in six years!)
What fandoms do you write for? In terms of what I've published - Mostly Arrowverse, with a little bit of Buffy and the Good Place (and I'm currently dipping my toe into Star Trek: Strange New Worlds for a fandom event). In terms of what I have not published - so many fandoms. Way too much Star Trek and, again, Buffy.
What are your top five fics by kudos? - Can’t Take That Away From Me (Coldflash identity porn). - Better Latte Than Never (the meet-cute prequel to the above Coldflash, and I actually hope to finish that series soon!) - [A fic that I'm embarrassed to have as 3rd highest kudos so eh] - The Bed (The Good Place, Chidi/Eleanor/Tahani). I'm really pleased that's still high on the list, because I think it's for the writing as much as the ship. - Unspeakable (DCTV Coldwave). I think the high kudos is mainly because it's been published so long - I wrote it years ago.
Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? Always. And I say so at the end of every fic. I adore comments, so I feel like I should acknowledge them. Even if my thanks are really boring some days!
What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? So many to choose from! But in terms of angsty endings, probably First Time (Westhallen time travel post-Eddie's death).
What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? It might be the Stealing Time/Saving Time series (Coldwestallen, Len with Oculus powers), where Barry, Len and Iris kind of get everything they want, in a way I think makes sense for this version of them.
Do you get hate on your fic? Only once, and I don't know if it even counts as hate, but it was someone who got mad about one of my neurodivergent headcanons - which was more of a surprise than anything, as those usually get great comments. I got so much support from my fandom friends about it that I felt much better. :D
Do you write smut? On occasion, but I try not to. No one needs to read my grey ace ass trying to write sex in a vaguely convincing way (and failing).
Do you write crossovers? Not yet... but let's say I've been working on a Faith Lehane/Leonard Snart fic for ages, that will probably never see the light of day at this point. It's fun though!
Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not that I know of, but I can't imagine anyone bothering with my fics!
Have you ever had a fic translated? I don't think so, but I've had podfic made <3 The awesome @litrapod turned Fireworks (Coldwave) into a great podfic, which made me so happy.
Have you ever co-written a fic? A few times! Including with @achangeinpriorities. Top tip, beta readers can make great co-writers!
What‘s your all-time favourite ship? That question is too hard and I will never answer it but also it's Coldwave. Or Faith/Buffy. Or... Nope I'm not starting down this road :D
What’s the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I *really* wish I'd been able to finish Take The Keys (And Drive Forever) - Lisa Snart/Caitlin Snow, spooky fic - but I just ran out of ideas for it. Maybe one day...
What’s your writing strengths? Questions about my strengths are a challenge! I've had some nice comments about my writing of character dynamics.
What’s your writing weaknesses? I really struggle with dialogue. You'll see me try out many different ways of writing it, throughout my fic back catalogue, as I attempt to make it work. I think I'm getting better, but slowly!
Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic? If it was a good fit for a character - like if Hartley Rathaway was being snarky in Latin - I might give it a go, but I wouldn't try it very often. Too easy to get wrong, in too many ways.
First fandom you wrote for? Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but I never shared those early fics anywhere. It's for the best!
Favourite fic you’ve ever written? I've written 82 fics this is very difficult! This answer would probably change if you asked me another time, but I think it might still be the Retired Rogues series, in which Coldwave retire and hijinks ensue. Both were early fics, so my style has changed a lot since then, but they stick in my mind as being a lot of fun to write. I'm not sure who's done this already, so sorry if I tag you and you already have... Tagging (totally obligation-free, of course) @habibialkaysani @coldflasher @kittsfics @joanthangroff @sugar-haus @strangebrainrot @achangeinpriorities @blueelvewithwings

Fanwork creators self rec! When you get this, reply with your five favorite fics/art/podfics/etc. that you've made, then pass on to others. Let’s spread the self-love 🌼
From @anstarwar :}
Aw! Hey, thanks! I'll do my best to answer! \o/ <3
Long Ride Home (Star Wars, Echo/Crosshair) Though I struggled for a while and stopped writing around the time my dad passed away, I really think this will be some of my best work once it's finished. I've had the basic plot planned out in a loose sense for more than a year, and it really feels like I'm finally getting there! All my favourite ingredients are here: slow burn, healing from trauma, enemies to friends to lovers... just trust me, OK? When discussing this story with a friend recently, I said: "CrossEcho is less my ship and more my oceangate submarine that I keep insisting is fine guys, really, just try it, moments before it reduces me to paste". Maybe that will convince fence-sitters to read it out of morbid curiosity!
this small, but stubborn fire (Digimon Survive, Shuuji/Ryo) This story has been on the back burner for a while (sorry!) but once Long Ride Home is done, it's my first priority. After writing so much sci-fi it feels kind of nice to get back to a more grounded, human story... I say that, but it is Digimon, so take it with a grain of salt, haha. It's also nice to write something with younger characters for a change, and play with using social media within the story.
baby (Mass Effect: Andromeda, Avitus/Macen) I've always been super fascinated by the topics of AI and robotics, and the moment I got the idea for this story it just kinda possessed me. Obviously this story is about a romantic relationship, but it also carries a lot of my own feelings about caring for a loved one with a disability. Written for a gift exchange, so hopefully my giftee liked it as much as I liked making it for them!
not our first rodeo (Star Wars, gen - Bad Batch) So this one time, I paired up with this super amazing artist for a mini bang event... ;D But really! I love writing comedy shenanigans and unreliable narrator stuff, and this story let me visit so many fun genres that have influenced my overall tastes and style in some way. It was a blast and I had so much fun bouncing ideas off of you. <3
what's in a name? (Star Wars, gen - 99 & Bad Batch) I wrote this a while back for the Vode An zine and, honestly, I stand by it. I really enjoyed writing 99's POV and I'll definitely have to do it again someday! I tend to ramble, so one of the challenges of writing a zine piece was sticking to the word count... but I worked with an absolutely amazing beta reader who did an awesome job helping me condense things and be super judicious about what needed to be kept or cut. I would say the whole process really helped me grow as a writer!

Megs!! 💖 6 & 9 for AO3 Wrapped: Reader’s Edition!
When I decided it would be fun to do this, I immediately realized I have read SO many works this year, it is all a blur, but I will do my best!!! 💕
6. What's your absolute favorite works you read this year?
🔒 Collateral Damage by @danpuff-ao3
Draco Malfoy/Ron Weasley | E | 16k Fandom: Harry Potter
Yes, I realize you are the one that tagged me in this and asked the question, BUT I cannot discount the fact that this was one of my first 2022 reads and ABSOLUTELY one of my favs! I've reread this... I have no idea how many times at this point. It truly made me fall in love with Dron, and as many as I have read since then, I always come back to this one. It was so well written; you can tell you enjoyed every word!! 💕
an unsteady sun by @museaway
Nanase Haruka/Matsuoka Rin | M | 15k Fandom: Free!
I did a rewatch of Free! thanks to @makeitp1nk and re-fueled my love for RinHaru! 💕 Of course, that meant I needed to go searching for fic and stumbled upon this lovely amnesia fic! I'm planning to podfic it when I'm able! 😍 Thank you muse for being my intro to the Free! fandom, and I absolutely love it here! 🦈🐬
i'm just a guy whose intentions are good by @phenomenalasterisk for @hpcestfest
Harry Potter/James Sirius Potter | E | 9k Fandom: Harry Potter
So Phe doesn't write often. She's a fantastic Podficcer and the world's greatest cheerleader, but when they *do* write - damn. Just. Damn. I was SO in love with her characterization of James in this fic. Just a sweet chubby boy trying to ignore his crush on his dad, and then finding all the love he deserved in return. It was absolutely "wholesome incest" and I loved it so much. I'm so glad you were able to finish it!
9. Favorite rare pair you read works for this year?
Insert airhorn noises here 📢📢📢📢📢📢📢
🐍S N A M E S🦁 (Severus Snape/James Potter)
Good god, I could go on for days regarding my love for this pairing. From the very beginning of my entry to HP fandom I adored Snarry. I was definitely one of those Snape fans with a grudge against the Marauders, but as my multi-shipping grew, my love for James Potter blossomed into a burning adoration that I cannot get enough of.
I can thank GoldenEmpire's The Friend of a Friend for introducing me to this pairing and convincing me of soft, redeemable James. It has since been removed from AO3, which breaks my heart, so I'm thankful I had it downloaded as I reread it CONSTANTLY.
I'll supply my next favorite fic as a recommendation, because, holy shit, this is the wildest of rollercoasters that makes you feel ALL of the feelings in one story... from anger to hope to despair, to anguish and optimism and that ultimate happy ending. I had to take some breaks when the road got rough, but it was so worth the journey!!
Revenge is Sweet by BlueHorizon6 (FFN | AO3)
James Potter/Severus Snape | M | 120k Fandom: Harry Potter

Hi! I hope you're doing well.
I was wondering if you had any longer podfic recommendations? I like to listen to audiobooks while working and lately I've been listening to podfics. Downloading a few and then listening as I work. Preferably novel type length, just because I can't keep getting my phone to swap the book yk?
Anyway, it's no big deal if not.
Tea 🥰
hello, Tea! i'm doing fine, preparing to finally return to campus after a week of quarantining at home. how are you?
a confession: i don't really listen to podfics 😬 or podcasts or anything of that variety. i'm more of a visual person than an auditory person, so i prefer to read rather than listen. because of that, my knowledge of podfics and podficcers is rather less. the only active one i am aware of is Podfixx (whose tumblr i have linked and not tagged, because for some reason tumblr isn't letting me tag them 🙄) i went through Podfixx's ao3 to find the longest pods they have, and i've linked all of them here, along with a few other podfics i know of. for some, the length was untagged, so i've added the word count of the fic instead, keeping most of them above 50k since you asked for novel length pods (two of them are below 50k, but i've added them anyway bc i like them 🤭) i haven't heard any of these podfics, but i have read all these fics, and i enjoyed them thoroughly! i hope you find something to your tastes, Tea! and if anyone has podficcers or podfics that fit Tea's request they'd like to share, please do!
[Podfic] The Case of the Green Gown by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] The Case of the Green Gown by splix (length: 26.75 hours, E)
...Watson had at that time deserted me for a wife, the only selfish action which I can recall in our association. I was alone.
---Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, The Adventure of the Blanched Soldier
[Podfic] Proving a Point by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Proving a Point by J_Bailier and @elldotsee (length: 20+ hours, E)
Invalided home from Afghanistan, running out of funds and convinced that his surgical career is over, John Watson accepts a mysterious job offer to provide care and companionship for a disabled person. Little does he know how much hangs in the balance of his performance as he settles into his new life at Musgrave Court.
[Podfic] Nature and Nurture by AxeMeAboutAxinomancy, inspired by [fic] Nature and Nurture by @earlgreytea68 (length: 15-20 hours, M)
The British Government accidentally clones Sherlock Holmes. Which brings a baby to 221B Baker Street.
[Podfic] Given in Evidence by erica_schall, inspired by [fic] Given In Evidence by @verity-burns (length: 10-15 hours, E)
Coming back from the dead can be a complicated business. With a new case on the horizon, rebuilding a life is one thing... rebuilding a friendship quite another. For Sherlock and John, things may never be just the same...
[Podfic] The Heart In The Whole by @verity-burns, inspired by [fic] The Heart In The Whole by @verity-burns (length: 10 hours, 21 mins, E)
Events after 'The Great Game' leave Sherlock dependent on his best friend and colleague. But John has a secret of his own...
[Podfic] In Memoriam by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] In Memoriam by strangegibbon (length: 7-10 hours, E)
Sherlock returns from his self-imposed exile to find a John Watson he barely recognises. Now he must solve the mystery of the disappeared man and try to rebuild their relationship as well as deal with his own return to a London that has forgotten him.
Post The Reichenbach Fall. Romance, angst, slash. Sherlock x John.
[Podfic] Letters, Resolved by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Letters, Resolved by @earlgreytea68 (length: 5-6 hours, M)
The letters have been written, read, and discussed. But that doesn't mean anything's been resolved. Yet.
notes: this is part 5 of the Letters series, and will probably only make sense if read/heard in sequence. the first 4 podfics are short, however, around 20-30 mins each, so i haven't listed them here
[Podfic] Extraction by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Extraction by holmesian_love (length: 4-4.5 hours, teen)
After Reichenbach, during his hunt to overcome Moriarty's network, Sherlock is captured and tortured, in Serbia.
While Mycroft spends a month working overtime to find his brother, with agents reporting back and an extraction team in place, John's world is turned upside down, after a surprise delivery shakes his foundations. He is forced back into the world of Sherlock Holmes, completely unprepared to face the consulting detective.
The extraction is only the beginning for these three men as they face the consequences of past actions.
[Podfic] Corpus Hominis by AxeMeAboutAxinomancy, inspired by [fic] Corpus Hominis by mycapeisplaid (length: 4.5-5 hours, E)
John knows the human body intimately. He’s had plenty of opportunity for study as a doctor, soldier, and lover. There’s one particular body, however, he knows very little about. When Sherlock launches himself head-first into a new obsession and they get sent on a case in an unlikely location, the pair discovers each other’s bodies with confusing yet delightful (and sometimes hilarious) results.
[Podfic] About Sleep and Coffee and the Existence of Fate by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] About Sleep and Coffee and the Existence of Fate by atiki (length: 2-2.5 hours, E)
Naturally, John was startled when suddenly the ultimate solution occurred to him: Marriage. This was, of course, a bit of a fundamental problem rather than an actual solution. One didn't simply use the words “Sherlock” and “marriage” within the same sentence. Not even in a hypothetical context.
(Five times John kind of wanted to propose to Sherlock, and one time he didn’t have to.)
[Podfic] Almost Home by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Almost Home by @bertytravelsfar (length: 1.5-2 hours, E)
"He pulls out the ID card – the one that Sherlock had somehow seen when he was buying drinks at that awful club. He’s had other ID cards since then but he's hung on to this one for some reason. He looks at the image of his face, young and pale and idealistic, and he knows that just a month later that man would have found and lost the love of his life within a week, and even knowing that, John wouldn’t change a single thing."
[Podfic] The Death and Resurrection of a Beekeeper by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] The Death and Resurrection of a Beekeeper by @shiplocks-of-love (length: 1.5-2 hours, M)
Sherlock escapes London for a quiet, solitary life in Sussex, exhausted after the whirlwind of drama following Mary’s death.
One day, a letter arrives.
[Podfic] Under Cloud and Over Cloud by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Over Cloud and Under Cloud by @khorazir (length: 1.5-2 hours, teen)
After his Fall, Sherlock travels the world to destroy what remains of James Moriarty's criminal empire. When things don't go according to plan and he finds himself in desperate need of a discreet means of travel, cue MJN Air ...
[Podfic] Casualty by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Casualty by @totallysilvergirl (length: 1-1.5 hours, E)
Sherlock renders assistance at a hit-and-run and is left deeply shocked. When the accident turns into a case, John moves back in to 221b to help—and finds that Sherlock has way oversold his image as an emotionless thinking machine
[Podfic] The Wedding Garments by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] The Wedding Garments by cwb (105k, E)
This is the story of a young consulting detective who wants nothing to do with marriage and an army doctor who wants to find true love. It's 2020 post-Brexit England and the British government is encouraging arranged marriages. Candidates meet through state-run agencies and date in hopes of finding love (and tax benefits). Sherlock doesn't need or want a spouse, at least not until John Watson shows up. Hesitant to give in to his more carnal urges because of the way they derail his mind, how will Sherlock progress toward the more intimate aspects of a relationship? The answer lies in a very special wedding gift.
[Podfic] Quarantine by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Quarantine by wendymarlowe (53k, teen)
John and Sherlock are stuck at 221B together due to coronavirus concerns. Sherlock slowly drives John barmy.
Updating in real time.
[Podfic] Chances Are by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Chances Are by @bertytravelsfar (51k, M)
Sherlock is spending some time in his mind palace - so far, so normal. But why is John there, why do things keep changing and why are there only two exits from the sitting room at 221B, neither of which seem to go anywhere useful?
It's a case like no other for Sherlock Holmes and John Watson.
[Podfic] Turn Left at the Park by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Turn Left at the Park by Glenmore (37k, M)
So what would have happened if John hadn't walked through the park and met Stamford?
What if, instead, he walked around the park and just went home?
[Podfic] Ride On by Podfixx, inspired by [fic] Ride On by @totallysilvergirl (34k, E)
After the disastrous reveal at the Landmark, John tells Sherlock there can be no excuse for what he’s done, and no forgiveness. Sherlock leaves London and starts a new life, and not even the British Government knows where.
It’s up to John to track him down and make things right, with a trip around the world and a clue only John would recognize.
[Podfic] The Progress of Sherlock Holmes by Cellar_Door, inspired by [fic] The Progress of Sherlock Holmes by @ivyblossom (62k, E)
“I had,” he said, “come to an entirely erroneous conclusion, my dear Watson, how dangerous it always is to reason from insufficient data.”
-- Arthur Conan Doyle, The Adventure of the Speckled Band
[Podfic] Performance In a Leading Role by aranel_parmadil, consulting_smartass (orphan_account), inspired by [fic] Performance In a Leading Role by @madlori (156k, E)
Sherlock Holmes is an Oscar winner in the midst of a career slump. John Watson is an Everyman actor trapped in the rom-com ghetto. When they are cast as a gay couple in a new independent drama, will they surprise each other? Will their on-screen romance make its way into the real world?
[Podfic] The Bang and the Clatter by kholly, inspired by [fic] The Bang and the Clatter by @earlgreytea68 (137k, M)
Sherlock Holmes is a pitcher and John Watson is a catcher. No, no, no, it's a baseball AU.
[Podfic] To the Sticking Place by Lockedinjohnlock (Podfixx), inspired by [fic] To the Sticking Place by @blueink3 (121k, E)
Renowned Shakespearean actor Sherlock Holmes has finally burned all of his bridges in the theatre industry save for his constant director, Greg Lestrade. John Watson has made a name for himself in the musical theatre circuit, but age and injury are working against him. Can they reinvent themselves for an all-male Macbeth without killing one another?

HI HELLO I HAVE MANY THOUGHTS
okay so I've been like thinking these things for weeks but I've been very unmotivated so I'm saying them all now!! so prepare for multiple asks!! or something!!
okay so I've just been rereading my all time fave fics and there was this one like in one of them- 'I’m not *stupid*, I just can’t read' and it immediately made me think of your writing, like kyis, first of all (and actually more on that bc obviously I've been rereading that too as one of the Best Fics Ever™ and holy SHIT it's so good. I cannot believe no one has made a podfic for it yet, bc wow especially after listening to the extract that was read out at the beginning of the podcast episode I NEED someone to read this shit to me so I can savour every bloody word bc dammit I'm a skim reader and its TOO GOOD for me to be skimming the fucking words!!!!! anyways needed to get that of my chest back to the regularly scheduled programming) but then also with wander home, I feel like with sam being able to read its definitely gonna be cashing some form of angst for the other boys, dean I think similar to in kyis but also with all his bucket load of self worth issues it's like makes sense uno. but also with cas, I feel like cas thinks of himself as not that intelligent at all. we know he thinks quite poorly of himself due to his autism, and I feel like he would consider himself not actually smart but rather just weird, especially with him being uneducated and I think his struggles with running the inn, especially before dean and sam would rly effect his opinion of himself and lead to some self-hate. so anyways, then I feel like when sam enters the picture and interacts with cas (once everything has settled down and they start interacting NOT in a life-or-death situation) I feel like he'll add an outsider perspective and realise that actually yeah cas *is* actually rly smart. like, he'll be talking with cas about something - like uno spewing all his knowledge like the little nerd he is - and cas will be following along but as soon sam tries to engage him cas will be like 'I'm sorry Sam, I'm not smart enough to know that' and sam is like grhhh yes you are!! and then he tries to push it bc hes Sam and is like 'but u were just telling me and *insert something cas knows, like about nature or the like* yesterday! and you knew loads!' and cas dismisses it bc that's a result of him being abnormal not being smart and then there's a whole little journey of sam trying to convince cas he's actually smart with many trials and tribulations but eventually it ends up with them having their lil debates/Intellectual Conversations about whatever Sam has recently learned with his lessons and it's all :)) (bonus scene is dean observing them and when they try to involve him he's like 'yeah no not gonna happen, idc if u say I'm not dumb sam, not all of us can be Aquinas okay?')
I justify the aquinas reference bc I had to know him for a subject and now I've gotten my exams back and I somehow haven't flopped them!! which means I never have to do that subject again and I feel the need to at least somewhat reference the worthless knowledge in my brain :')
ok first of all what is the fic ur referring to drop the fic!! (even if its not destiel ill read anything lol!)
also thank u so much ;~; <3 idk no one has ever offered to make a podfic and i am terrible at reading out loud so i def cannot but if anyone ever offered i would totally be down for that!
i think ur so right, i think cas def does not think of himself as smart at all, when he actually is!! and i think he's a giant nerd as well who would def find a lot of the stuff sam rambles about to be very interesting. hes not a Certified Genius like sam and doesnt have the same Desperate Thirst For Knowledge but he also genuinely finds this stuff interesting!!! i think they bond so well over nerd stuff!! but yes!! sammy following him around once he trusts him more bc dean will indulge him but he can tell hes bored to tears by sam talking about like geometry and its just going in one ear and out the other. hes like hmm wow thats interesting sam. yeah that is so cool ur right. but hes like falling asleep. so he starts talking to cas...maybe it starts bc cas overhears him talking to dean and is like ! wow really? and asks like an actual question. and sam is like YES finally and rambles his heart out and cas is actually listening and engaged and sam is like ok i like u now actually ur my friend. and starts talking to him about all the intellectual stuff. and yes him over time convincing sam that his intelligence isnt just a Symptom of Being Weird or even if it is who cares hes still smart???
and do u mean Thomas Aquinas? i have never read anything by him!! congrats on surviving ur exams tho!!!!!

Hi Steph, hope you and your loved ones are doing well(: Do you have any long fics (+100k) that are about character development? I like casefics but I would like to read something that the focus in the story are the characters, even if there is some cases. I just read The Adventure of the Silver Scars for the first time and now I'm adrift lol. Thank you so much, you make my day most often than not, *virtual hug*.
Hi Nonny!!!
AHHHHHHH I’m so happy that you’re enjoying my fic lists, and that I make your day <3 I want to argue that I PERSONALLY find any story that long has a LOT of character development, so I’m gonna be an ass and add a part two to my last 100K w. fic list :) Hee hee hee! I don’t get a lot of opportunities hah. I haven’t read very many 100K fics since my first list last May so I apologize for the length. 
Because I’m so focussed on trying to read more long fics lately, it’s taking me a lot longer to get through them, so I’m sorry I don’t have a lot for you. BUT I’m going to ALSO link you to my other longer fic list posts PLUS my case fic lists since you’re looking for those too :)
I genuinely feel like a lot of the fics I rec that are long have a lot of character development, because otherwise I don’t think I would have been able to get through them. It’s a weird quirk of mine: I need to get into the world of the characters if I’m going to invest that much time into them, so yeah :P I hope you enjoy what I have for you! 
PS AGREED I loved Silver Scars! It’s actually on this list because I only recently read it, hahah :D

When this child is born, the angel comes into being to protect and care for them during their life on Earth. For John Watson, all he cares about in the world revolves around his Chosen, Sherlock Holmes. Watching him grow up though, the angel soon learns that God must have had a sense of humour the day he decided to make Sherlock, as trouble seems to follow him like a magnet wherever he goes. John can't decide what's worse, the idea of losing his Chosen one, or the fact that he may be breaking the most taboo law of heaven as he disguises himself as a human to better protect and befriend the beloved detective he's always watched from afar. He was meant to care for him. But what happens when caring evolves into something more? What happens when an emotion an angel is supposed to be incapable of possessing comes to life suddenly and viciously inside John's chest?
