Love Bites {Masterlist}

With your memory spotty, you gravitate toward the first person you see—an old friend from a very old past. But Astarion is keeping plenty of secrets...and he's never been the best liar. How long will it take before his deceptions unravel? And what will you do when you realize just how much damage he's done?

Ship: Astarion Ancunin x fem!vampire spawn!elf!Tav/reader

Warnings: 18+ MDNI, vampire spawn!Tav, fem!Tav, manipulative but guilty/regretful Astarion, Astarion's sexual trauma, Cazador, vampire bite, reader is turned into a spawn, reader is technically one of Astarion's victims

18+ Warnings: vaginal sex, consensual sex, mirror sex, riding, fingering, oral, blood kink, bite kink, loving sex, non-descriptive noncon/dubcon (Astarion’s trauma), Astarion experimenting with his boundaries

Total Word Count: 47,397 words (87 pages)

Notes: The title of this fic (and some of its chapter titles) is heavily inspired by Def Leppard's song Love Bites.

Posting Schedule can be found on my {Updates Page}

CONTENT NOTE: Where Astarion's perspective comes into this fic, I tried writing his experience with his hurt that he has been treated this way along with his "this is what I do" mentality; he's very back and forth about the abuse he's endured and some of my writing reflects that. If that upsets you or makes you uncomfortable in anyway, I completely understand and I encourage you to leave the fic at any point. However, I do believe writing this perspective is necessary, as his blasé take on his sexual trauma is one that I myself have struggled with, as I am sure other survivors have as well.

☟ story parts linked below ☟

Best Unremembered {Chapter 1} Waking up with a spotty memory and the only person you do remember is jarring enough—but it only gets worse when the people who remember you are monsters and strangers.

Walking Corpses {Chapter 2} Astarion's night spent searching for prey is interrupted by an unwelcome feeling of familiarity. Your life is derailed by recognizing a long-dead friend.

Little Love {Chapter 3} Appearances can be deceiving, but they can also tell you everything you need to know. A second look at the elf you once called a friend is all you need to fill in the two-hundred year gap.

The Golden Elf {Chapter 4} Sometimes, vampires choose their spawn specifically. Sometimes, they're in the wrong place at the wrong time and are lost to their loved ones for centuries. These days, that's all you can think about.

Little Star, Little Sun {Chapter 5} A long-awaited reunion that doesn't go quite as planned can lead to many things, especially when two manipulators both lay their traps for one another. Though is it really a trap when all you want to do is spare your lover from yet another night of torment?

Love Bites {Chapter 6} Astarion remembers you, but it's already too late. He's bedded you and remembered the love and life you had together, two hundred years ago, and now he has to make a choice. Does he sacrifice himself, or does he sacrifice you?

Love Bleeds {Chapter 7} Fangs gleam in the shadows and a coffin lies open nearby. Vampire lords are nasty creatures; even a changed heart can do very little when there are claws around it.

On My Knees {Chapter 8} A betrayal so severe even centuries of love threaten to break beneath its weight. Yet you offer forgiveness, even if Astarion has not felt its kindness in two hundred years.

Second Chances {Epilogue} Home is a place and home is people. You have quite the large family now, and it's time to provide for them, however you may.

[chejuu]

20 questions for writers

thank you @wingdingery for the tag and excuse to self-indulgently talk about myself <3

1. how many works do you have on AO3? 17 on cheju, then 11 more on my various and sundry accounts 🫣

2. what's your total AO3 word count? 73,122 on cheju, a total of 110,145

3. what fandoms do you write for? nightwing + some original work as of late + various fandoms i used to be in that people request in fic exchanges

4. what are your top 5 fics by kudos? like two days ago bad desire just surpassed the kudos of a ten-year-old sansa/margaery fic i published on my old account. wow! please ignore that i was writing smut at 16

setting aside my other accounts, then it’s diesis (smut), listen to teeth (smut), sex, lies, and audiotape (mafia au. also smut), and exactly what it looks like (silly identity porn crack)

5. do you respond to comments? always!

6. what is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? down together leaves it open but probably fits the bill, in that the sex makes things significantly worse between slade and dick

7. what's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? Rescued Slut Thanks His Studly Savior is established relationship sladick fluff (if pure smut can be fluff i guess) which i thought i would never write so maybe that. or better now, but it's about theater camp (2023) which is already a feel-good comedy movie to begin with

8. do you get hate on fics? not yet. i feel like it's a rite of passage, tho. quick someone send me hate

9. do you write smut? If so, what kind? it’s like... all i do

10. do you write crossovers? no, but never saying never!

11. have you ever had a fic stolen? nope

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? nope!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? i think i’d be too embarrassed

14. What's your all-time favorite ship? gotta be drarry (sorry sladick)

15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you will? i plan to finish all my wips eventually, even the unpublished ones! at least any that have made it out of the notes app and into a word doc. the only one that maaay not make it is a recursive fic (author permission granted!) based on a popular sladick story—i’m a bit nervous about not living up to the original 🙈

16. What are your writing strengths? character voice, i think, and banter in particular. sexual tension, smut. so i've been told!

17. What are your writing weaknesses? i hardly write anything longer than a single scene, let alone more than one chapter. the one time i've given it an earnest go, i've gotten so caught up in the weeds that i haven't updated in months T_T

i'd also like to get better at atmosphere. not so much descriptions of the setting, more like... creating a distinctive tone through detail, metaphor, word choice. sometimes i feel like unless i'm writing a very particular setting, the tone is just. nonexistent?

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? i honestly have zero thoughts

19. First fandom you wrote for? harry potter when was 14. wow it even has an A/N and everything

20. Favourite fic you've written? i think it’s bad desire so i’m glad the people agree hahah

[khaoala]

tag game ✨

@mbjw saved me from saturday boredom and tagged me in this, so thank you jubs, i enjoyed these a lot.

1. why did you choose your url?

i love khaotung. khaotung was obsessed with the capybara song last year before i even knew who he was. capybaras happen to be a very common animal in the region i live. i was very happy they were getting the recognition they deserved. put them together, we have lovely khao + capybaras = khaopybara (i'm also super sure i've seen people here and on tw use this and i just stole it. i'm not creative especially when it comes to usernames).

2. any sideblogs? if you have them name them and why you have them.

i have two other sideblogs. @tuseryoo for all of the gifs i make so i can have all of them in one blog just because, so i feel like i'm not losing track of the things i create (even though i haven't updated that one in a while), and @captain-xandis that some moots might have noticed in their notifications bc i recently created that one to post gifs about critical role, but i always forget to check which blog appears on top of the thingy, so i'm constantly deleting and reblogging things in the right blog these days.

3. how long have you been on tumblr?

as of july 3rd, i've been here for 11 years now, so since 2013? which tracks with my super strong k-pop phase tbh.

4. do you have a queue tag?

nah, i have a queue going for gifs that are requests or for episodes that already aired, but usually i just post things whenever.

5. why did you start your blog in the first place?

ha, i was into super junior. and i was experimenting with fandom for the first time at the time. that's it. i felt like tumblr was a lot more creative and pretty than twitter or facebook, so i stayed.

6. why did you choose your icon/pfp?

i am a mook defender and apologist. i also think aya is super cute and super pretty. i change icons so often though, i blame all the pretty women in qls these days for making me change it all the time.

7. why did you choose your header?

i am breathing and living for the heart killers and kantbison and unfortunately i'm dying from lack of content. the tattoo table kiss is going to change lives i think, so until we don't get the official version, i'll have this masterpiece displayed there somehow.

8. what’s your post with the most notes?

as of now, it's a 23.5 official trailer gifset of sun being jealous of ongsa with amazing 939 notes, but the gifset of lada protecting earn from hitting her head on the table is quickly catching up with 877.

9. how many mutuals do you have?

17 mutuals? i think that's right.

10. how many followers do you have?

843 if you count the main blog + side-blogs.

11. how many people do you follow?

... 27 blogs.

12. have you ever made a shitpost?

i mean, sure? i do get embarrassed by my own shitposts sometimes and i delete them tho.

13. how often do you use tumblr each day?

all the time. it's my favorite social media for sure. i get to see pretty things and my dash is much better curated than other apps. it's great.

14. did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?

i don't think i ever fought online. i block people with remarkable expedience tbh if i don't like their vibe or their tone or the shit they post, and i also make use of the filtered tags, so you know, no reason to fight.

15. how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts

these exist? good for them. you shouldn't tell people what to do.

16. do you like tag games?

sure! i only started being part of them now, so sometimes i forget them, or i just don't see i was tagged, but i do enjoy them.

17. do you like ask games?

i don't think i've ever done an ask game but that's mainly bc i think people won't want to know and won't send any asks, and i'd rather spare my ego from that humiliation.

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

i think many of my mutuals are famous in our ql bubble which makes it a little crazy that some are my mutuals tbh. that's most of them actually.

19. do you have a crush on a mutual?

i do have people that make me kick my feet when they interact with my posts like, twirling my hair, silly smile, giggling because they've noticed me. but actually crushing, imagining our lives in the countryside, with a kitchen facing the meadow in a fine spring morning, with two dogs and three cats, no.

20. tags?

i'm tagging @namtanfilm, @aylinaliens, @sollucets and @sherrymagic, @ayansukkhaphisit and whoever feels like doing it, and to those i've tagged, just ignore this if you want, too, no pressure.

Copy pasted from Facebook:

Darlings. If you are experiencing dysregulation right now in the form of dorsal freeze (this feels like you have a lot of nervous energy inside but you cannot mobilise or focus. Think an engine revving but the car is in neutral) Try any or all of these. 🩵 (Please note this post is set to public for sharing purposes).

1. Drink some water

2. Move your body in some way. Micromovements and shoulder raises and releases, hand shake outs and horse lips count. Toe wiggles. Don’t underestimate little actions, they truly can get us out of a state of freeze.

3. Eat something with protein in it. Eat something fresh. Then eat anything you like.

4. Turn off the news. Your brain was not designed to process this much information stimulation and stress.

5. Do 3 or more rounds of box breathing.

6. Put on a favourite song and sing along loudly to it

7. Put down your phone: Create some tiny sense of order. Make a bed, clear a sink, wipe a counter, arrange some flowers. If you cannot put down your phone: delete some emails or close some phone tabs. Update an app.

8. Move to another room or space

9. Colour or doodle

10. Go outside/Open a window/turn down the heat a bit. Circulate stagnant air and energy.

11. Send a kind message to someone

12. Splash your face with cold water

13. Cross your arms across your chest and tap alternate shoulders rhythmically

14. Call someone, walk around while you talk if you can.

21

2. What’s your AO3 word count?

93,466 -- holy shit.

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Doubt & Trust

5. Do you respond to comments?

Almost always. Usually, delete or freeze the hateful ones.

6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

You are Mine. -- I guess you can count this as angst? I wrote an everlark Halloween related fic, but that was back when I tried writing in first person, and it's not good😅

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Doubt & Trust. -- I guess. Since I haven't really posted or updated any of my longer fics.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Yes. I used to get anons on here talking bad about my fics, I used to get a lot recently with my wyler fics, but I usually read and delete. Because if I don't delete or block, I usually will continuously read them and torture myself.

9. Do you write smut? What kind?

Yes, I just recently started writing smut. It's not the greatest, but I used the entire Wyler Kinktober to try & get better. I write any kind I'm comfortable with or one such as Non/con where it's not too graphic, I usually don't write a lot of non/con

10. Do you write cross-overs?

Not really. I don't enjoy when characters meet other characters from other universes.

11. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope.

12. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Nope.

13. What WIP would you like to finish but doubt you ever will?

Probably Captive in the Darkness. An everlark fic of mine and a few drafts of everlark that I have scrapped because I just lost motivation.

14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?

Hmmm... that's really hard. I recently have absolutely love Petroclair & Wyler, schelly. Everlark will always be one of my first ships. I used to love stony & spiderwitch but sorta fell out of those. I guess Everlark can count as an all-time favorite.

15. What are your writing strengths?

Honestly, I think I can write some good gore and horror it's just kinda hard to get the right words sometimes.

16. What are your writing weaknesses?

Foreplay & Kissing. It's so hard for me to try and write sexual tension. Honestly, writing sexual intercourse in general, I feel like I'm pretty bad at. Also, it doesn't help that I'm constantly doubting my writing.

17. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I can try but definitely need to use a translate app or something.

18. First fandom you wrote for?

If you want to be technical, I guess IT (2017), but for Ao3, it was Everlark.

19. Favorite fic you’ve ever written?

To the Ends of the Earth -- THG fic with httyd au. because I absolutely love httyd & I have so much going for this fic, I just need time to write.

20. What fic would you want to rewrite one day?

Definitely Black Cat or Captive to the Darkness.

(Literally, the only reason why Black cat has so many kudos is because that's when the wyler fandom actually.. nvm.. & it was my first long wyler fic. Other than that, it wasn't great.)

Tagging (idk who has done this😅) --- @iamfandomcrazy @thee-antler-queen @mega-aulover @pookieh @mellarked-katnisseverdeen

Not to out myself as PB Choices: Stories You Play trash because I've been in a love/hate relationship with that app since I was like 13 and began with The Crown & The Flame (I feel like we should count online visual novels as able to shape the stories we write because somehow Choices has), buuut the way Prince Aerin in Blades of Light and Shadow reminds me of James Herondale fucks me up. My guy is literally a major antagonist of the first book and, admittedly, I did not spend the diamonds to track him down and bring him to Whitetower prison, so now I'm hoping he turns up later in the game (alive), AND IF HE HAS A REDEMPTION ARC AND THE ROMANCE THAT WAS AVAILABLE IN THE FIRST BOOK COULD PICK UP AGAIN, I WILL NOT COMPLAIN. Except maybe about how I committed myself to romancing Tyril and so then I'd feel awful about pursuing Aerin, but then if Aerin is available... IDK what I'll do. It's like he was designed to be the guy that worms into my heart. He has honey golden brown eyes, the most lovely dark mess of curls, godforsaken pale vampire skin, and he's a nerd and I truly believe he was once a good man with good intentions before the Shadow Court got to him.

Anyway, I hate the direction PB has gone with most of their books and it's why I wasn't on the app for ages again (always a dry spell). Someone's probably already said it but they really went from having diverse genres coming out all the time to leaning heavily into the NSFW category (as a genre rather than simply an element of another genre if you paid diamonds for those extra choices in romantic moments). I think they're just following the trend though of smutbooks in general and which of their books have been most popular (if I have to see any more The Royal Romance promotion, I'm going to kick a man) but even that wasn't NSFW in genre, just cheesy romance. But it's no secret booktok trends favour the spicy books traditionally published and so it makes sense why PB writes their own. I mean, they literally have a spicy fae one now (I played The Cursed Heart, yes, but for diamonds so I wasn't spending on the actual NSFW scenes that the book intends readers to indulge in).

I replayed Endless Summer and I will forever be mad that Kele was only a romance option for Quinn and not MC. Jake is my love and I adore Estela (but honestly female!Lancelot in Guinevere (a book I became obsessed with) made me well and truly fall in love with the muscly-woman-with-long-dark-hair-and-stoicism character type that I think they both share) BUT KELE. HE IS SO CUTE. WE WERE ROBBED.

Anyway, Endless Summer demonstrates I have a history of falling for the character that shows up halfway through books/series, and it does not help that Aerin's appearance reminds me of James Herondale, my greatest fictional crush. I don't know what to do. Hell, I'm tempted to replay Book 1 so that I can get that scene with Aerin in Book 2 Chapter 2 that I saw someone else had. For now, my fingers are crossed and I'm hoping to see him again later on in the updates.

The Future of FitTech: How 5G, Wearables, and AI are Transforming Fitness App Development

The global fitness mobile app developmentmarket is booming, expected to grow at over 13% CAGR to reach $14.7 billion by 2026, according to a study. But as competition intensifies, offering generic workout programs is no longer enough. Users expect fitness apps to act as advanced virtual coaches and provide bespoke guidance based on their changing fitness levels, goals, and preferences.

Source

 5G Connectivity usher in Real-Time Fitness Experiences

The rollout of high-speed 5G networks offers game-changing capabilities for fitness apps compared to 4G or WiFi. For both outdoor and indoor fitness apps, 5G enables an array of real-time use cases not possible before.

Reduced Latency Enables Real-time Tracking and Feedback‍

5G offers sub-1ms latency compared to the 50-100ms latency of 4G networks. This allows fitness apps to provide real-time tracking and feedback without any lags or interruptions. Users can get moment-to-moment updates on running pace, heart rate zones, rep counts, and other metrics during workouts without latency hampering the experience. For example, the Fiit app provides real-time feedback during workouts by leveraging 5G's low latency capabilities. This creates an immersive experience where users feel like they have a virtual personal trainer by their side.

High-definition Streaming for Immersive Fitness‍

5G’s faster bandwidths, ranging from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps, support high-definition live streaming of workout classes. Apps like FightCamp are using 5G to provide lag-free boxing and HIIT class streaming in up to 8K resolution. This high visual quality, coupled with minimal buffering, results in highly immersive fitness experiences. Additionally, 5G enables Multiplayer VR fitness gaming where groups can participate together in fast-paced VR workouts or training games. Zwift, a popular indoor cycling app, now supports 50 players together in a 5G-powered virtual world. Such interactive experiences will become more mainstream as 5G coverage rises globally.

Image‍

Uninterrupted Tracking for Outdoor Fitness‍

For outdoor activities like running or cycling, 5G allows fitness apps to provide constant biometric tracking and mapping without any drop-offs in connectivity. As users move through different areas, their workout data can be continuously uploaded to the cloud rather than having intermittent gaps. Apps like NURVV Run leverage 5G to offer uninterrupted foot strike analysis and running coaching in real-time. This leads to outdoor fitness experiences where users feel seamlessly connected throughout. As more gyms, stadiums, trails, parks and cities become 5G enabled over the next few years, it will expand the possibilities for creating fitness experiences powered by real-time data.

Wearable Devices for 24/7 Fitness Tracking

Wearable devices have become massively popular for continuous fitness tracking as well as receiving real-time guidance during workouts. According to IDC, shipments of wearable bands and watches will cross 160 million units globally. By seamlessly incorporating wearable tech, fitness apps can tap into a constant stream of biometric data and provide personalized recommendations.

‍Image‍

Enhanced Tracking with Advanced Sensors ‍

Next-generation wearables are equipped with sophisticated sensors to capture comprehensive data on the wearer’s exercise performance, recovery, sleep, and overall health 24/7. For example, the WHOOP 4.0 band uses 5 LEDs for accurate heart rate measurement, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, and a SpO2 sensor to track advanced strain, sleep, and recovery metrics. Deriving such granular data allows fitness apps to offer tailored insights and feedback to the user.

Wearables with electromyography (EMG) sensors, like the Myontec Mbody shorts, can track muscle contractions and exercise intensity. This enables apps to identify imbalances or optimize hypertrophy and strength programs based on an individual’s biomechanics.

Personalized Guidance through Wearable Integration‍

Leading apps like Apple Fitness+, Peloton, Nike Run Club, and MyFitnessPal seamlessly sync up data from wearables to offer customized fitness experiences. Wearable integration allows these apps to: - Provide real-time metrics like heart rate and pacing without needing to glance at the wearable device - Retain workout data like GPS maps, totals stats, and rep counts within the app for post-workout review - Offer tailored workout recommendations and training plans based on the user’s fitness patterns and recovery needs observed through the wearable - Provide form correction, technique analysis, and safety alerts based on real-time data like unstable heart rate or dangerous exercise form

Image‍ As wearables become mainstream, they will be integral to fitness apps, creating personalized experiences driven by users' own quantified biometrics data.

AI and Machine Learning for Adaptive Training

Sophisticated AI is enabling fitness apps to act as smart virtual coaches that customize guidance to each user and adapt plans based on changing fitness levels and goals.

Workout Personalization through ML Recommendation Engines‍

Machine Learning algorithms analyze users’ performance, feedback, goals, and other engagement data to build a fitness apprecommendation engine. These engines suggest tailored workout routines, training plans, gear, playlists, challenges and other features personalized for each user. As apps gather more data over time, their ML models improve, and the level of customization increases. AI can even design entirely new workouts optimized for a user’s needs instead of recommending pre-defined programs.

Intelligent Form Tracking and Correction‍

Computer vision techniques like pose estimation allow apps to track exercise form and provide real-time corrections before injury-causing mistakes become habits. For example, the Paofit app uses AI to analyze exercise repetitions in bodyweight workouts and detect suboptimal techniques. Users get tailored cues like “straighten knees” to improve form. Startups like Forsight use sensor fusion and deep learning on thermal video data to accurately track movement patterns across both sides of the body during rehab exercises. Such intelligent form tracking will be critical to prevent injuries as fitness application development becomes virtual personal trainers.

Motivation through Personalized Insights‍

Leveraging data from wearables and external apps via APIs, fitness platforms can gain a holistic context of users’ health metrics, sleep patterns, nutrition, and more.

Image‍ AI can then derive personalized insights to nudge users and keep them motivated. For example, the fitness social network Strava analyzes runners’ training load and race performances to provide customized training recommendations and predict potential race finish times. As privacy concerns are tackled, the combinatorial power of cross-app data will allow fitness platforms to offer hyper-personalized guidance based on the complete understanding of each user's body, lifestyle, and goals.

The Future: Fitness Experiences Powered by 5G, Wearables and AI

Emerging technologies will work together to redefine fitness mobile app development experiences over the next 5-10 years. Here are some exciting possibilities:

Immersive Fitness Realms with Digital Humans‍

5G coupled with AR, VR, and AI, will enable apps to build your own fitness app worlds where users can have interactive workouts and competitions with virtual coaches, friends, or digital twins of real athletes and trainers. Spatial anchors can map digital assets like weights and instructors persistently into physical spaces for hybrid experiences.

Image‍ For example, Holofitness uses AR to project holograms of trainers who can demonstrate moves from any angle and provide corrections in real-time during workouts. Such immersive fitness realms will make exercising at home as engaging as gym experiences.

Fitness Apps Integrated with Smart Gym Equipment  ‍

Wearables and IoT ecosystems will allow fitness app development solutionsto connect with smart gym equipment to create data-driven workout experiences. Apps can auto-adjust equipment like smart treadmills based on changing heart rate or form breakdown. Biometric data can visualize intensity and output on screens to immerse users in the workout. Post-workout data can be integrated within fitness apps to provide feedback on form, training effect, areas of improvement and to optimize future exercise plans leveraging AI. This will blur the barrier between digital fitness experiences and physical gym equipment.

Image‍

Fitness Apps as Central Health Hubs‍

In the future, fitness mobile app development will evolve into platforms for complete physical and mental health. Users will be able to seamlessly access nutrition planning, telehealth services, sleep tracking, stress management, and well-being features within a single app. Workout recommendations will factor in data across all these dimensions for whole-body optimization. Powerful analytics will provide insights on optimizing longevity, performance, and overall wellness. 

Conclusion‍ Emerging technologies hold enormous potential to transform fitness mobile app development into intelligent and highly personalized virtual coaches. However, there are challenges to building human-centric AI for fitness, including concerns around data privacy, algorithmic bias, and the need to keep users engaged. As 5G, wearables and AI evolve, fitness application developersshould ensure they design experiences that adapt to human needs rather than forcing humans to adapt their behaviors to technology. Fitness app experiences must be joyful, intuitive, and effective at nudging people towards their goals.

At Consagous Technologies, we are at the forefront of building next-gen fitness and health apps powered by data-driven insights. Our fitness application development experts create highly tailored apps that leverage AI and biometrics to provide users with the benefits of virtual coaching and community engagement towards achieving their wellness goals.

Writing Process: Drafting

Sooooo, I started drafting Part 2 almost immediately after Part 1 concluded—and by now I've abandoned my Scrivener file entirely and am doing everything in Google Docs. (I talk about my switch from Scrivener to Google, here. ⚙️)

This time, I didn't have all the journal entries to work from, either. I was starting entirely from a blank slate. So at first, I just let myself WRITE. All the scenes I was most excited about, in no particular order, just to squeeze all the juice out.

I did that for like a month. And then, when I had about 15-20k words of random bits and bobs, I started to put them in order, and develop a through-line. That's where the draft docs & trackers came in.

✏️ Away from Scrivener, I needed some extra organizational tools to house my more general notes, research, & scraps. So, I built this li'l cutie with easy links to all my Google draft files, and included a brief summary that helped me greatly when plotting out the next set 10 chapters for Part 2:

*The chapter titles were updated as my outline changed, but the summaries did not! The descriptor for Chapter 20 is now, like, Chapter 23.

Keeping the descriptors short really helps me stay on task. If I have so much I need to cover in a chapter that it drops my formatting to the next line, I know I probably won't be able to cover everything in ~3,000-5,000 words.

✏️ Now, that's just the first page of the "Table of Contents." As of today, it's 13 pages long, and it also houses a TON of notes and working drafts and snippets of dialogue that I am saving for future, as-yet-unspecified chapters.

It's really messy—and sometimes when I'm out & about and my service is shit, I whip open my old Notes app, just to get a thought down. Here, have a taste of what's been rattling around in my brain...

Dialogue often starts as just the dialogue. I layer in tags & descriptors later, during the editing process. Most of the conversations I've written started with me talking to myself alone in the car, in the shower, or while washing dishes. (This works for copywriting too. My best ideas almost NEVER come to me while I'm sitting-down-looking-at-a-screen. Of course.)

For instance, that same conversation made it from the Notes app into a Google Doc and has since evolved to:

A li'l somethin-somethin from the upcoming Scorcher Season's Chapter 24 🔥

✏️ Once I've got all the major plot points written, I'll go back and write the "boring" stuff in chronological order. Okay, it's not really boring. It's just the filler information that helps a reader get from point A to point B, and I edit as I go. This ends up being like half of the total word count for the full 10 Chapters.

I'm currently hitting this point in Part 3—and you can see below that just writing my favorite parts here and there gets me pretty far on its own. Over the last 3 weeks, I've nearly exhausted my imagination developing the general story arc. Next up, I'll go back and start fleshing out each chapters one by one.

Wanna know something CRAZY?? Over the last ~year, I've noticed that I tend to write nonstop during Mercury Retrogrades. Like, I don't want to do anything else. I'm learning not to schedule any major projects for these ~3 week periods, so I don't blow my deadlines on account of being too obsessed with my fanfic to bother. 😅

After my decision to expand to 4 Parts total, my original ToC Doc got a bit... top heavy. (Also, I got really tired of manually calculating all the word counts.) So, instead of continuing in Docs, I added a tab to my spreadsheet:

*Hiding my chapter summaries so as not to spoil!! 😈

As you can see, I fill in the links as I create the draft docs... and I've already had to split a chapter in half due to scale, so the untitled <Scorcher 7> dropped to Part 4. I'm hopeful I won't have to split any more, so I can end strong on 'Ten Days.'

I don't usually start the finale until the very end, because I've learned that the wonderful comments I receive will sometimes give me extra ideas that I want to ensure make it into the fic!

✏️ Around the time I've fully completed the first 5 chapters, I'll give myself the green light to start posting. That leaves me just enough runway to finish out the rest of the season, and posting on a timeline helps keeps me motivated & accountable!

This is getting kinda long, so I'll write about Trackers & Timelines I've developed along the way in another post.

Thanks for being here! 🖤

xo, Sheesh.

Shopify Inventory Management: Keeping Your Store Well-Stocked

Managing inventory effectively is crucial for the success of any Shopify store. Here are some tips for keeping your Shopify store well-stocked:

1. Set up Inventory Tracking:

Enable Shopify's built-in inventory tracking feature to keep a real-time count of your products.

Set low-stock notifications to receive alerts when items are running low.

2. Use SKU Codes:

Assign unique SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) codes to each product variant. This helps in easy identification and tracking.

3. Regular Audits:

Conduct regular physical audits to reconcile your physical inventory with the data in your Shopify store.

Correct any discrepancies to maintain accurate stock levels.

4. Product Variants:

Utilize product variants for different options (size, color, etc.) rather than creating separate product listings.

This simplifies inventory management and avoids confusion.

5. Supplier Communication:

Maintain good communication with your suppliers to ensure a steady supply chain.

Inform them of any changes in demand or upcoming promotions that might impact your inventory needs.

6. Forecasting:

Use sales data and trends to forecast future demand.

Shopify has reporting tools that can help you analyze sales patterns.

7. Safety Stock:

Keep a safety stock level for fast-selling products to avoid running out of stock during unexpected surges in demand.

8. Bulk Editing:

Use bulk editing tools to make changes to multiple products simultaneously. This is especially useful for price adjustments or updating stock levels.

9. Automate Restocking:

Consider using apps or tools that integrate with Shopify to automate the restocking process.

Some apps can generate purchase orders based on low-stock levels.

10. Clearance and Sales:

Implement clearance sales for slow-moving items to avoid overstock.

Use Shopify's discount codes to promote sales and move inventory.

11. Multi-location Inventory:

If you have multiple physical locations, enable the multi-location inventory feature in Shopify to manage stock levels across different places.

12. Returns and Exchanges:

Have a clear policy for returns and exchanges to efficiently manage returned inventory.

13. Integrate with ERP Systems:

For larger businesses, consider integrating Shopify with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems for seamless inventory management.

14. Training Staff:

If you have staff handling inventory, provide training on how to update stock levels and perform regular audits.

15. Regularly Update Product Information:

Keep product information up-to-date, including images, descriptions, and prices.

By implementing these strategies, you can maintain a well-stocked Shopify store, reduce the risk of stockouts, and provide a positive shopping experience for your customers. Regularly review and adjust your inventory management processes to adapt to changing business needs. To know more visit us at https://magnigeeks.com/
