20 questions for fic writers
I was tagged by the wonderful and talented Lana @cfr749. She’s a gifted writer and has 19 works with a WHOPPING 354,235 words on Ao3!!!!!! She’s a gem, a fandom OG (I think), and began writing Chenford since before they were canon. I like to read an author’s fics in chronological order and am reading hers this way. There’s a charm about reading pre-canon works in this fandom because it’s like time traveling and seeing a shipper’s heart through their writing and their belief in this ship that may or may not come true. And Lana on top of all of that has a way of combining words in a way that tugs at the essence of human emotion. Go read her fics!!!
1. How many works do you have on Ao3? I’m honored to be recognized as a fic writer despite having zero works on Ao3. Lana was incredibly thoughtful to tag me and I *think* it’s because she saw some tags where I mentioned that I write fic. Noticing small things like that is one of the many reasons why she is an awesome human being.
2. What’s your total Ao3 word count? Currently 0. In total, I have around 80,000 words that I haven’t shared yet.
3. What fandoms do you write for? The Rookie.
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
I’ll use this space to preview 5 fics in various stages of planning:
1. Psych professor Lucy and student Tim. Tim is married and Lucy’s in a relationship, so Chenford will be riding down Angst Avenue for a while … even as they ride their s/o’s.
2. Psych professor Lucy and student Tim. A companion story to the first.
3. Tim meeting Lucy’s grandma. There are a few OCs in this one including Lucy’s grandma. This is planned as a one-shot with potential for more chapters. I’m currently “face casting” Lucy’s grandma, so if anyone has suggestions, feel free to send them my way.
4. Soulmates AU. I have five separate Google docs with five separate ideas of how I want to write this. I’m leaning towards writing this from a historic angle where there’s a huge geographic separation between Lucy and Tim.
5. Found family goes on vacation. Patrice or the Thorsen family owns a huge resort up in the mountains (because of course they do). Our favorites spend a few days of fun up there. Thinking of writing Chenford as either having a secret relationship or in a pre-relationship. I just returned from a vacation in the mountains and this was in no way inspired by that. Nope.
5. Do you respond to comments?
If someone takes the time to comment on my stories, I definitely will reply.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
My fics will always end happy because Lucy Chen deserves for Tim Bradford to give her the world.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Psych professor Lucy/student Tim is the only one that has an ending so far. But dunno yet if I’ll keep that ending.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
No, because I currently don’t have any fics on Ao3.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Psych professor Lucy/student Tim is my first fic in over 20 years and first foray into smut. They just wanna bang … their s/o’s and each other.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
As a kid, I wrote a fic where S Club 7, BSB, NSync, Britney, Christina, Mandy Moore, Jessica Simpson, O-Town, A*Teens, etc. all stayed in a hugeass chalet and performed sets. BSB and NSync kept throwing shade and snowballs at each other.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Nope.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Not yet.
14. What’s your all time favorite ship?
Chenford!
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
I started writing psych professor Lucy/student Tim over six months ago and I honestly don’t ever want to finish writing that fic. But that's also partly why I haven't shared it yet. The story keeps evolving which makes the front end still a work in progress.
16. What are your writing strengths?
I can’t comment on my strengths as a fic writer because I haven’t gotten any feedback on my fics in over 20 years. But I can comment on my strengths/weaknesses as a writer: I’ve been told that I write very colloquially/conversationally and this was, until recently, seen as a strength by people smarter than me giving me honest feedback.
I also try to incorporate real experiences into my fics. This takes research, talking to people, listening to their experiences, etc. but it's so worth doing. For example, when Colin O’Neil (Mel’s bro) drinks, his face turns tomato red. He wrote about it in an Instagram post. Same thing happens to Melissa and to a lot of other East Asians but there are ways to circumvent redness with pills and such. So yeah, with that tidbit in mind, there's a scene in one of my fics where Tim clocks Lucy’s tomato red flush after a night of drinking.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Not writing enough details (see what I did there?)
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
Haven’t written dialogue in another language but I’m not against it either. I know enough Spanish to be comfortable writing in it without butchering it. I'm so game for Lucy to speak Chinese to Tim and Chenford kids, but I don’t know if I can pull it off. I can try though!
19. First fandom you wrote for?
S Club 7.
20. Favorite fic you’ve written?
Professor Lucy/student Tim.

Thanks again for the tag, Lana!
I'm tagging @onlyforchenford (because I'm an instigator and would love to read her fics), @poppypickle, @goodgirlssayiloveyoutoo @rememberthismomentx, @lovemesomechenford, @randomlittleimp, and @sailorslut111 (apologies if y'all have already done this and I missed it)!

Chocolate 🍫
It was the day of love – Valentine’s Day, and for Tim and Lucy – it’s their very first Valentine’s Day together. Lucy smiled widely into her pillow as she opened her eyes. She moaned as she stretched her arm. She looked over her shoulder toward the left side of her bed. It was empty.
She ran her fingers through her hair as she sat up in bed. She checked the time on her phone, it was seven on the dot. She looked around her bedroom, Tim’s stuff was still there, but where was he?
Lucy planted her feet onto the floor, she headed for her bathroom to get her day started.
When she opened her bedroom door, she stepped into her living room, where she saw rose petals leading up to her door. She looked into the kitchen, where she saw Tim making them both breakfast, however he didn’t know that she was behind him.
There were bouquets of roses in two vases on each side of her kitchen island, alongside a mini teddy bear with a heart, and to top it all off, a heart-shaped box, with a bow wrapped on top. She tip-toed behind him, and placed a kiss on his arm.
A soft smile ran across his face when he turned to look at her, he paused the music he had been playing, “Hey, you – good morning.”
Lucy wrapped her arms around his torso, “Morning, baby,” she said softly, “What’re you making?”
“Well, I was trying to make some heart-shaped pancakes, but, they didn’t exactly come out how I wanted them to.”
She placed her hands on his chest as she laughed in his face, “Y’know what? It’s the thought that counts – even if it doesn’t look exactly like it.”
He shoved his hand into his pocket as he turned off her countertop stove, “I have something for you,” he said, using his free hand to grab hers.
“You have something for me?” she gasped, “What is it?”
Tim grabbed the heart-shaped box off the counter, and handed it to her. She had a smirk on her face when she undid the bow and the ribbon on top, “What’s in here?” she asked.
“I don’t know, you tell me.”
She shook her head and scoffed when she placed the bow and ribbon on the counter. She removed the lid from the box, and loudly gasped when she viewed what was inside, “Baby, you bought me chocolate?”
“Not just any chocolate – it’s your favorite…I know how it’s so hard to find, so I’ve been spending the last couple of weeks trying to find it.”
She placed the lid back on top of the box, and held it close to her heart, “Thank you, baby!” she exclaimed once more, “I’m actually gonna eat these right now.”
“You’re gonna eat straight-up chocolate for breakfast, Luce?”
“Mhm!” she hummed, already popping one in her mouth.
Tim snickered at his girlfriend’s actions, “Well can I at least get one for finding it?”
She shrugged as she made her way to the couch, “Maybe – I’ll let you know if there’s some more left after I’m done,” she said, trying her hardest to contain her laugh.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Send me one word and I’ll turn it into a chenford fic!

Chenford + Tim notices Lucy is jealous when he says he's dating Ashley
I'm not sure I captured it quite right, but I hope you like it.

Four minutes from Lucy’s very long night.
She cannot stop thinking about the kiss.
—
Just a quick little something because it’s been half a day and I cannot stop thinking about them.

Okay, I just logged into AO3 for the first time in a few days because I was reading other books, but now there are CHENFORD CHRISTMAS FICS and I'm literally so excited I could burst.
If you are contemplating writing chenford with anything having to with the holidays please do it because I will read it. A Oneshot, a couple of chapters it literally does not matter just do it because holiday fics are some of the most fun to read.

Hey! HEY! So after that finale, I'm so happy but also sad, like how are we gonna survive this summer without these 2! Tips or fic to read?
Hey!
I don't know but it helps knowing they'll soon be back filming ! (Late june/Early july). So really it won't be that long. In the meantime i've been rewatching their kiss again and again. And again. 😁
Some of my fave fics i'm currently reading are (in no particular order) :
- Constantly on the cusp (of trying to kiss you) by moonycpd.
- Live your life by carmen_085 (Sequel to Sally in the alley)
- In the crystalline knowledge of you by Anxiouslynumb (i'm desperatly waiting for chapter 2!)
- Crowded heart by LiteraLi (waiting for chapter 3!)
- Beneath your beautiful by Cfr749
Those are only the most recent ones. I'm more of a multi-chapters fics fan but there's also some amazing One-shots, too many to list!

Nothing to Lose (Without You)
“You broke her heart, Tim. The only thing she actually needed you to protect — the only thing you were supposed to protect, and you shattered it."
OR
Angela has some things to say to Tim.
***
Super random bit of angst (no happy ending) based on scenes and dialogue floating in my head... mostly Angela attempting to talk sense into Tim.
Read the rest on AO3.
