What other fandoms do you think you’d write for? Or are you strictly an HP writer?

PS. Love ATWMD and THTF. Your writing is impeccable.

i’ve written a captive prince & succession fic as well so! & have also briefly written fics in some other fandoms when i was much younger which r now too embarrassing 2 name lmao

honestly not sure what other fandoms i’d write for it honestly just comes down 2 whether i’m gripped w an idea for certain characters…would love 2 escape hp fandom lol but i think part of why it’s sucked me in so bad is that i like fucking around w the holes in the canon universe…like most of the marauders fic i’ve written has been either canon compliant or canon divergent & me going “hmmm what would these characters do in this context” & now bc i’ve spent so much time thinking abt & writing them it’s just also becoming easy 2 plug these characters into aus 🤧

actually thinking abt my fic writing experience generally the thing that tends 2 make me wanna write fic is if there’s something abt canon that i wanna patch in…like my captive prince fic is just canon but from a different character’s pov & my succession fic is just “what if kenstewy were canon” lol. have thought abt writing aftg from andrew’s pov & the first book of the feverwake duology from dara’s pov simply bc that’s something i enjoyed doing w atyd & captive prince but never actually did…guess i could also see myself potentially writing spn fic if i came up w an idea i liked…& honestly i think if i ever reread trc i might go crazy for real & could then potentially decide 2 write fic who knows. but atp i feel like marauders fic has just become my comfort zone…it’s just a weird balance to strike where a story has to have characters i love but be unsatisfying (poorly written/queerbait/not actually queerbait but i’m delusional/would be fun 2 see from another character’s pov) enough that there r gaps i wanna fill. so like there r various stories/franchises/series i’ve loved where i’ve just never felt compelled at all 2 read or write fic bc i got everything i wanted out of the story etc!

The locked tomb, hell followed with us and the feverwake series definitely build some kind of venn diagram I'm just not entirely sure what the feverwake/tlt space is

[boydykepdf]

@fastasyoucan1999 ty 4 the tag!! <3

book that pleasantly surprised you: do androids dream of electric sheep? by philip k. dick! read this like a month ago + had only read one other philip k. dick book + didn't really enjoy it so i was surprised by how much i liked this one <3

book that disappointed you: quite a few recently which is...unfortunate. just been reading a lot of books that i end up not really liking :( most recent was the girl in red by christina henry which i read last week after having it on my tbr for so long that i forgot why i even added it and it was simply. not good! writing ranged from mediocre to bad + the actual plot was not particularly interesting or well-executed so :/ second most recent was bad feminist by roxane gay which just. did not have good politics lol

your current read: living a feminist life by sara ahmed but it's slow going bc i am...not really enjoying it </3 giving her a chance bc i've only just finished the first 3 chs but...honestly had higher expectations...

top 2 books on your tbr: my tbr is sprawling + disorganized i don't really have any particular order in mind for it but! i do want 2 read young mungo bc i've seen all my tumblr mutuals raving abt it + i've also been meaning 2 read on earth we're briefly gorgeous for a really long time!

an author you’re loving: having been reading some engels + marx this year + loving them lol & have also read a couple books by leslie feinberg + bell hooks + have really enjoyed those as well!!

rec a book to the person who tagged you: ummm my go-to rec right now is. the archive of alternate endings by lindsey drager simply bc it is my favorite thing i've read this year <3 but also!! since u enjoyed the captive prince series...the feverwake duology by victoria lee has kind of a similar vibe although v different setting etc....one of my faves <3

Do you ever think about Dara throwing away the watch that Lehrer gave him after Noam ends up getting hurt? Because that was the last thing he wanted? And how he begged Noam to be okay while he was unconscious? Or are you normal?

[hqlmesbqry]

Just another day of missing Noam Alvaro, Dara Shirazi, Carter Ames, Bethany Glennis, Taye Washington, and Leo Zhang.

so wrt book recs

I think you've already put the 2nd book of the series on your tbr but City of Stairs, Robert Jackson Bennett - had some Choices that I'm not sure what to think of but it had some really interesting worldbuilding + is also just a fun read

She Has Her Mother's Laugh, Carl Zimmer - not sure if this is the type of nonfiction you'd like but I remember reading it a while back and thinking it's an interesting read so maybe check it out?

Jade City, Fonda Lee - slow… underhanded politicking ig one could call it, Pale Lights type characters who strongly hold different paradigms of morality from ours, twisted family relationships etc. is fairly long + can be quite slow though

and wrt 'Stuff that's - not even originally written in something besides English, but just written outside the shadow and cultural weight of the Greater American Publishing Industry' specifically, Salt Fish Girl by Larissa Lai immediately comes to mind but I don't. remember enough of it to tell whether it's really Out There in a good way or not.

also in the category of "nothing to rush to read but if you're in the mood for something shorter/lighter*, I think you might like these more than the marketing/blurb/etc would make you think", I've mentioned The Darkness Outside Us already, but I'll tentatively recommend Feverwake + the prequel novella if you end up liking the first book (I find it reframes some of the books' more awkward parts in an interesting way + helps smooths over the awkward parts)

*as in easier to read not. necessarily in subject material

....oh jeez this ended up being super long lol and I was thinking 'I don't have many books to rec this'll be short'. but yea 👍

Jade City is, going by page count/being a coherent trilogy you'd presumably want to read all of a bit long me for at the moment, but the rest are all absolutely on the list.

(City of Stairs is on the list basically entirely on the strength of American Elsewhere, which I read a couple years back and absolutely adored. Now I'm actually curious about what sort of Choices you mean)
