#I deleted the fic be happy now

[k0yaz]

guys what the actual hell?

Why did I lose so many followers? If it’s because of my recent fic I will delete it and remove it from my master lists but can I have an explanation as to why I lost over 150 followers in under a few hours?

I’m not blaming anyone ily all but im just curious as to WHY I lost followers over one single fic which didn’t even contain anything problematic in it, and there’s plenty of other fics for you all to read so why focus on ONE just because it’s from a game that you don’t like?

Again I’m sorry if this came off as harsh I’m just upset and not in my right mind rn because this feels ridiculous

🧮🔥💕 (last one for your current WIPs) for the fic writing asks? Thanks :D

🧮 what are you working on? describe it in 20 words or less

post s2 au of perry mason hbo where pete and perry get their shit together

🔥 what’s something that’s currently going really well?

i finally figured out how to get from point a to point b in Modern Architecture (my forementioned perry mason fic), and i have fully outlined both remaining chapters of No Grave Can Hold My Body Down (my bathena amnesia!bobby au)

💕 what's your favorite part of your writing process?

when i've got my music going and i've got all the time in the world and the words are flowing as easy as breathing and i know exactly where i'm going and how to get there

OKAY I’M DONE‼️ tomorrow‼️

(Subtract about 3-4k [in-progress notes and afterword for my print version—which will be sent to those who asked once i finish editing (might be a minute)!] but here’s proof)

sorry it took so long. I was really unhappy with a couple sections and decided to stop bitching about how unhappy I was with them on tumblr and take the time to rewrite them to a standard that I would actually be happy posting… which I thought would take like a week… silly compacflt… always triple the amount of time I estimate i might need… so sorry I’ve been MIA. ive been working on this the whole time.

but now I’m actually really happy with these. And with their completion, it means this series is over. I think this is an ending I can actually be proud of, now. so for me it was worth it.

also i think i should reiterate, these aren’t supposed to be read all at once, i just thought it would be crazy to post these dozens of individual one-shots as their own chapters. that’s crazy. Lol. so you can treat them like chapters if you want. or don’t. I’m not your mom

these sections (ice/mav retiring, getting married, hangster wedding, retired life etc.) will be posted tomorrow. Thank you for waiting‼️

so I woke up to this fucking comment in the middle of the night

and I just wanna say, not only did I absolutely NOT use a fucking AI or bot to write my fic, but also if this is something that is going to happen now and I’m gonna have to be anxious/worried that someone is gonna accuse me of doing something like this OR that someone is gonna upload my work to a machine to teach it how to steal the work of a real human: I just won’t post anymore. like it’s literally as simple as that.

and that kills me because I already have enough reasons not to post the things I write and I was legit so excited to put something new up and now I’m like a sad leftover birthday balloon and I honestly don’t know if I will continue posting this fic or not. I feel super gross about this and frankly, really violated too. we’ll see if that changes by wednesday, but no promises on updates anymore at this point. most of the joy I had about posting this fic is gone now because of this.

so whoever is out there feeding fics into bots, here’s my PSA: fucking do better. be better. and stop ruining creative outlets for actual real people. you suck.

I’ve started working on my ancient FMA post-COS fic for the first time in a straight up decade, and I finally caved and made a spotify account so I could organise all the old songs I listened to when I was writing it.

You can find it here if you wanna hear some pretty songs that make me think of fma 2003 and CoS. It’s short rn but it’ll grow as my memory comes back.

If any of yall have been here long enough to remember my old abandoned fic, I’m finally bringing that ol corpse back to life and working on it again, miracles really do happen!

Ok I honestly hope that this is just the universe playing a mega fat april fools on me...

BUT as for NOW it is sadly true:

I DON'T have a computer/laptop anymore 😭 The battery died...and I don't know if it can be changed or if I at least can save what is on the harddrive/memory card..

Which means that SOME (not all of it! Most of it is thankfully saved on a separate hardisk) of the chapters/pages of my Rammstein WIP Fic MAY be lost FOREVER 😞 I never learn by taking several copied snd save them somewhere else and so now I am being punished (just like that time when my phones SD card got broken when I dropped the phone into concrete and the card couldn't be saved and my ENTIRE 1 and a half year stay in Gothenburg was lost!)

I wish I was fooling everybody right now but it's true! Fuck. I really HOPE that everything that is saved there can at least be taken out somehow and saved before I buy a new laptop. Otherwise I am gonna cry...

[General fic. Jo Sawashiro and Masato Arakawa ft. Masumi Arakawa]

Sawashiro had joined the yakuza in order to reunite with the son he abandoned son Masato Arakawa, that much was clear. However, apparently he'd done too fine of a job gaining the senior Arakawa's trust and respect in the process: what would seem like a dream and perfect opportunity to some could only promise an awkward evening for Sawashiro as he was given the important task of babysitting Masato. By himself. When he had no experience whatsoever with children on his own.

But if Arakawa appeared to have enough faith in him, then what reason did he have to doubt himself? Plenty, really.

same anon here who sent the original ask,,, it’s not exactly in video format but i swear, by sheer coincidence, i wasn’t even actively searching for it, i found an extended version of the cute lil punching thing???

https://www.tumblr.com/beyondallreasonablesport/16985250525/fuckyeahsebson-maythekersbewithyou-mark-acts

what a coincidence frrr i wasn’t even trying to search for it and it just… popped up… it’s 4am and i’m freaking out at this coincidence. anyway! it’s not the best quality but aaaaaaaa

Anon tysm omfg!!!!! 🥺🥺🥺 you really delivered!! <3

I think I'm still gonna be a bit sad for a while that I can't go find it in the archive itself, but I really appreciate you sending it!! What a crazy coincidence! It's a shame that the op is deleted because I'm really curious if I had the race correct or not. But finding out that something has been deleted is one of the worst things to experience online I think, you just feel kind of empty because it's something you'll probably never get back sigh sigh :,)

[officialratprince]

hi :) do you have any suggestions for younger writers? any detrimental mistakes we should strive to circumvent? (younger meaning teens, i guess?) your writing is so, so beautiful and i crave advice!!!

OMG i forgot about this ask for a literal month i'm so sorry 😭 here is what i can think of off the top of my head <3

keep reading others' works and branch out in authors/genres/forms as much as you can. if you just keep going on your own words you'll start to feel like you're just saying the same thing over and over in slightly different ways

write about what you care about! writing for fun is not a school assignment. i usually churn out 3-4x the amount of what actually gets posted because that's how i process my thoughts. everyone's process is different but imo it's better to write a bunch of bullshit rather than holding yourself back because you're scared it'll be bad

part two of the above point: don't get sucked into writing things just because they're what will get you attention. i'm a hypocrite for this because i've done this but i'm recovering from that mindset lol. i think art is better the more of a niche freak you are and i mean that genuinely

part three to this chain--write original works even if they're only drabbles. it's a different skillset from writing fic and even though it's harder and won't get you as much direct instant gratification it's also much more personally rewarding

most importantly just keep writing!! i write so much shit that's just for practice & for fun and isn't for others. i could get into specific grammar/plot pitfalls i see a lot but i feel like the main mistake i made as a younger writer was intimidating myself out of having fun with writing.
