anyway the actual point of fandom is to inspire each other. reading each other's fics and admiring each other's art and saying wow i love this and i feel something and i want to invoke this in other people, i want to write a sentence that feels like a meteor shower, i want to paint a kiss with such tenderness it makes you ache, i want to create something that someone else somewhere will see it and think oh, i need to do that too, right now. i am embracing being a corny cunt on main to say inspiring each other is one of the things humanity is best at and one of the things fandom is built for and i think that's beautiful

Thank you @thewholelemon @cutestkilla @monbons @forabeatofadrum @mooncello and @run-for-chamo-miles for the tags, there is so much good going around today! Seriously y'all have me yearning to write something long and complicated and meaningful, ugh.

I don't have any fic like that in the works, though. I was trying to prod at a document that's been languishing for a while that is at least kind of meaningful, but I'm having such trouble. If anyone wants to brainstorm, please feel free to throw that message at me like a paper ball.

But barring meaningful and complicated, there is Musical Chairs, which does have the adjective long going for it. It's also giving me such trouble in such a small section, but I'm trying. Here's the littlest sample I've maybe ever shared for it:

“You're a shameless flirt, Simon Snow,” Baz observed. Simon smiled. “There's no shame in flirting.” Baz tilted his head. “There’s some in being a fucking tease.”

Alright alright there's an animal demanding I take it outside now, tags below the cut <3

Six Sentence Sunday

Thank you for the tags, @roomwithanopenfire, @thewholelemon, and @cutestkilla! Currently sipping on my turmeric ginger chai and listening to Found Heaven. It is a good Sunday. I hope y’all are having a good Sunday, too.

I did a WIP ask game yesterday, which was lots of fun, and I feel it accurately sums up my WIP agenda right now. Feel free to check that out if you so desire.

Next, here’s some snowbaz—sentences from the mystery fic I teased three (?) weeks ago. I’m honestly getting really excited about it, so I might find myself diving in in earnest after the Eras tour.

““Say yes,” Baz whispers. Through the haze that has descended upon the room, it’s difficult to comprehend, but I manage: he’s voicing a request, not a command. One more reassurance. One more unlocked trap door, should I need it.

“Yes.””

…I’m sure y’all know exactly what’s going on here, but if you wanna guess in the tags, feel free, lmao.

RWRB and tags under the cut 😘

Some baby Henry from my Fearless fic:

“Catherine ruffles Henry’s short, fluffy hair as Arthur hums in thought. “You see,” he says, “your gran, Mum’s mum, was the Wicked Witch of Europe.” Catherine laughs brightly, but Henry’s eyes have gone wide and fearful.

“Does that mean we’re going to be wicked, too?”

“Oh no, not at all. We’re the good guys. Your mum tapped her shoes together and whisked us off to a happier, safer place.””

Very excited to post this one!!

Hellos, hugs, and/or fist bumps: @tea-brigade @martsonmars @you-remind-me-of-the-babe @whatevertheweather @that-disabled-princess @palimpsessed @artsyunderstudy @philaet0s @goblindad-emoshit @youarenevertooold @ileadacharmedlife @onepintobean @supercutedinosaurs @nightimedreamersworld @imagineacoolusername @larkral @jasonfunderberkerthefrogexists @happiness-of-the-pursuit @bookish-bogwitch @brendughh @raenestee @alexalexinii @ic3-que3n @facewithoutheart @rimeswithpurple @hertragedyconnoisseur @noblecorgi As usual, I’ll be checking out what y’all have shared after this gets posted!

#you're right I do not know what's going on but I know that I love it #really really #and I love that you're getting excited about it! it makes things so fun!! woo!!!

what's up lovelies? thank you for the tags @cutestkilla, @emeryhall, @hushed-chorus & @thewholelemon. I feel like I say this every time but your excerpts are all so frickin' good, and I look forward to more from all of you, whenever it's shared. 🩵

words aren't flowing at the moment, so I'm researching for both my wips. street art supplies + process for one fic, and skateboarding for the other. it's all very cool. I might procrastinate on writing even more, dig out my skates, and hit up the local skate park this afternoon. (more research, right?)

alright...how 'bout some more cobb stuff? still untitled. more Simon POV under the cut:

He shakes their hands and murmurs more apologies as the corporate guys leave. I’m bouncing my right leg as they all file out, bounce bounce bounce, I can’t stop, it kills me not to have my board right now, I need to move, this is all so majorly messed up. Once they’re gone, I try to reign in my nervous energy and repeat my previous statement. “I didn’t do hard drugs, Davy.” “Simon ...” “You’re seriously gonna believe the word of some random person over me? They were probably paid by the tabloids for that quote!” “Simon's right,” Penny says. “It's a tactic they use all the time.” “It doesn’t matter,” Davy says. He folds his arms across his chest, and he looks so ridiculous in that blazer, his shaggy hair slicked behind his ears, and it suddenly seems hysterical that this is the man who holds my career in his hands. His too-soft hands that haven’t held a board for over 25 years, but still tells me what to do with mine.

love tags! @best--dress, @bookish-bogwitch, @artsyunderstudy, @facewithoutheart, @whatevertheweather, @valeffelees, @ileadacharmedlife, @stitchyqueer, @larkral, @you-remind-me-of-the-babe, @blackberrysummerblog, @shemakesmeforget, @iamamythologicalcreature, @shrekgogurt & @orange-peony

#I am INTRIGUED #and researching while you can't write is great and deciding oh shit I wanna go do that is even better!!!#go skate!!!

Seven Sentence Sunday

Y'all! Y'ALL!

The Eternal Life of Baz Pitch is out in the world! So exited. If you want more in depth behind-the-scenes, take a look at my procrastination post.

This past week was spring break and I spent ALL of it writing like it was my job. Ask me how many Romeo and Juliet essays I graded for my actual job... (Please don't. The answer is zero.) But, I finished 25k words in a week and I'm really fucking proud of me.

In any case, once I finish the last few revisions to the last few chapters, I am going to block Google Docs from my life and finally get back to reading all the amazing fics that have come out since I started this project 6 weeks ago.

Given that I've started posting, I can now preview sentences from later chapters. Moving forward, all previews will be under the cut to avoid spoilers for those who have not read/are not caught up on current chapters.

Here's a bit of past Baz from Chapter 3

Baz is so in love that he does not notice the world pass him by. Every morning, Baz wakes up to the ghost of Niall’s touch, so he does not see his mother’s shaking hands as she drinks her tea. At night, he falls asleep to the memory of Niall’s groans heavy in his ear, and he does not hear Natasha’s hacking coughs. Baz helps his father around the stables, daydreaming of Niall’s smiles and completely missing the furrow in Malcolm’s brow. Then, a day arrives when Baz can no longer ignore any of it. Natasha collapses at dinner, silverware and plates flying as she makes a weak grab for the table. Glass shatters around her, the shards sharp and menacing.

Thanks for the tags @roomwithanopenfire, @thewholelemon, @emeryhall, and @cutestkilla. Your snippets all looked great and now I can FINALLY read your fics... or wait with baited breath for yours @thewholelemon.

Tag, you're it.

@thewholelemon, @roomwithanopenfire, @noblecorgi, @you-remind-me-of-the-babe, @youarenevertooold, @cutestkilla, @bookish-bogwitch, @emeryhall, @valeffelees, @beastmonstertitan, @raenestee, @arthurkko, @iamamythologicalcreature, @hushed-chorus, @rimeswithpurple, @aristocratic-otter, @cattocavo, @larkral, @drowninginships, @artsyunderstudy, @whatevertheweather, @brilla-brilla-estrellita, @comesitintheclover, @shrekgogurt

#I'm so excited for this AU #and like not to come on too strong but I'm fucking proud of you for that wordcount too okay??#the fire that fuels writing like that for an au that's consumed you is unmatched and it makes me so happy to see <3 #tbr

Good morning and thanks for the tag @thewholelemon, I'm living for your quippy V!Baz narration. Since I was already here procrastinating the procrastination ask post, I figured I might as well not procrastinate this post. So, some more from the upcoming Ch 5 of Hiding Out in the Open, for which I have my full POV-by-POV zero draft of done (P.S. thanks for that term @valeffelees it perfectly encompasses my process).

The question hangs in the air, and I wonder if I’ve got it wrong. If I were the old me, I’d just take the plunge. Take what I want. Steal the kiss. But I’m not, and the me I am now is terrified. Not because I might be gay. (Or whatever this would mean I am.) Not of kissing a boy. Of kissing Baz. And fucking this all up, this thing between us. The part of it that’s working. The part of it that feels like the only thing keeping me alive.

^^SUBJECT TO CHANGE because I just took my dirty zero draft and wrote that chunk properly 3 minutes ago.

Anyway, some tags for my lovelies under the cut!

Six Sentence Sunday

Hello marshmallows. Happy Sunday. I’m getting over being sick—picture me wilting on a fainting couch, please, I’m a baby about this shit.

Below the cut, some sentences with Baz and Penny. I don’t have anything in coherent enough order to even beta but, still trying to write through it.

I process what she’s said a second later but still minutes faster than the Windows Vista no doubt loading in front of her. “Bunce, I don’t help people. Last I heard, I terrorize people. After all these years, do you not instinctively fear me? Maybe you should write yourself a note.” “Please, Basil. I’ve been more terrorized by my siblings when they hear an ice cream van.” “To be fair, that does sound terrifying.” “It truly is. The things they will threaten you with just to get a single with flake. Anyway, I have a puzzle I want your help on.” “Take it to a retirement complex. I don’t do puzzles.”

Full disclosure: the line about writing yourself a note is a direct lift from the TV show I am AU-ing. Every episode had at least 100 good lines; I'm not going to feel bad about adapting that one with credit.

If you have something to share, I would love to see it; if not, hoping you are not being harassed by several Bunce children wanting ice cream: @hushed-chorus @raenestee @facewithoutheart @bookish-bogwitch @mooncello @monbons @shrekgogurt @you-remind-me-of-the-babe @brilla-brilla-estrellita @larkral @onepintobean @martsonmars @technetiumai @palimpsessed @ileadacharmedlife @ivelovedhimthroughworse @youarenevertooold @iamamythologicalcreature @erzbethluna @artsyunderstudy @cutestkilla @alleycat0306 @rimeswithpurple @prettygoododds @blackberrysummerblog @yellobb @run-for-chamo-miles @theearlgreymage @ic3-que3n @cattocavo @theimpossibledemon @melodysmash @katatsumuli @nightimedreamersworld @best--dress @supercutedinosaurs @nausikaaa @valeffelees @emeryhall @dohrnaira @aristocratic-otter @arca9 @goblindad-emoshit @whatevertheweather @roomwithanopenfire @noblecorgi @orange-peony @alexalexinii @arthurkko

an ask game for writers to procrastinate working on your WIP(s)

Thank you for the tags @bookish-bogwitch @aristocratic-otter @youarenevertooold I've been in search of ways to procrastinate <3

1. 🦈Tell us the name of your/ one of your WIP(s):

I'll go with one that isn't being posted yet: Callous.

2. 🍄Describe your WIP/one of your WIP(s) in the format of “___ + ___ =___”

Touch starvation + poor communication = Baz's No Good Very Bad Night

3. 🌍What tags or warnings will one of your WIP(s) need if you intend to share it?

PTSD, disassociation, and, uh, emotional hurt/comfort?

4. 🧭An alternative title to one of your WIP(s)?

Bold of anyone to assume I'm good enough at coming up with titles that I have multiple to choose from. Oh! But actually I do for Bait and Switch, thanks to Dre brainstorming fishing idioms with me. There were 4 alternatives, but my favorite is All is Fish, because it makes no fucking sense.

5. ⚠️Which WIP your most likely to finish or update next?

It had better be Musical Chairs.

6. 💾What is your document of your WIP/ a WIP called? (not the stories actual title but what you’ve saved it as)

In an uncommon turn of events, I only have one (active) WIP right now that's not already named as it will be posted, and that's "yeah sure let's just write some shit that's way later and not finish the other that's fine"

7. 🖍Post Any sentence(s) from your WIP.

It’s just…there’s also some deer in the headlights energy to him, which, mixed with the general aura of barely tamed violence, is throwing Shepard off. Truly, it’s been a good long while since he’s done this kind of pinballing over what he’s seeing when he looks at someone.

He does know what he’s seeing when he looks back at Simon. It’s the sort of face that has him politely averting his eyes to examine the bland thread of Simon’s shirt instead. He thinks walking in on the two of them tangled up without a stitch of clothing wouldn’t feel half as intrusive as looking at that expression did.

8. ♻️A scrapped idea for your current WIP.

I had to abandon about a page of the above misnamed WIP (now to be succinctly abbreviated as YSLJWSSTWLANFTOTF) because it no longer fits the tone of the rest of the fic at all, which is sad because it made me laugh. It's too long to put here in its entirety, but here's part of one line, which shall function as the dead darling's eulogy: "I know you have a dick, Baz, I’ve fucking well been thinking about it!”

9. 🤔What’s a story you’d love to write but haven’t even started yet?

Okay there's one I don't want to say much about because, selfishly, I want to be the one to write it, but it's related to truth spells. (Technically I've started it because there's a document with 10 scattered lines of dialogue, but I haven't started it started it.)

10. 🤡How many WIPS are you actively working on?

I'm trying to focus on 3, but I might have to say 4 here.

11. 🛠Is there a scene or anything in the WIP you are struggling with right now?

I have rewritten the same 4 pages of Musical Chairs about 5 times. It's absurd. I know what's going to happen, I have the ending written, I have almost everything that gets us there written, and yet this section is u n d o i n g me.

12. ❤️Not a question, just a second Kudos to send.

I'm gonna take that as me sending kudos to all these lovely people: @cutestkilla @you-remind-me-of-the-babe @artsyunderstudy @fatalfangirl @whogaveyoupermission @iamamythologicalcreature @thewholelemon @facewithoutheart @martsonmars @ileadacharmedlife @ivelovedhimthroughworse @larkral

#for number 6 I also have to give a shoutout to the callous chapter 'haha whoops more chapters'#my writing #ask game #(sort of?)
