Sadly making some cuts and edits to my fanfiction appreciation page, some of them hadn’t been updated in forever so I just took a good 1/4 of them off. 

I made the page to share with my followers and lovers of fanfics (particularly in the Fairy Tail fanbase w/ Nalu & Gruvia) - so I’d love some recommendations if anyone has any, to add to my ‘collection’ on my page. 

Some authors on there, that are here on tumblr are:

@moeruhoshi, @bonneyq, @mushi9, @mslead, @superfreakerz, @amehanaaa : you’re all amazing, keep up the amazing work in your writings!

Authors Recs:

BonneyQ - aka the unofficial queen of the Gruvia fanfiction community. She no longer writes Fairy Tail fanfiction, but definitely check out her past Gruvia stories (if you haven’t already)— they are AMAZING. I didn’t include any of her works in my list specifically just because they are all amazing (and I figured a lot of people already know them).

zeldris - a super creative and original author. Their profile is au galore! I seriously recommend checking them out!

randomteenager - absolutely love their works!! :)

**please note that these are mostly fanfics/authors from outside of tumblr**

If you’re looking to find more tumblr fanfics and authors, check out my other account @gruviafanficsyo, which is a collection of amazing Gruvia fanfictions by talented authors from right here on tumblr :)

[bonneyq]

Hi BonneyQ! I’m a big fan of all your Gruvia fanfics and it’s inspired me to become a writer of my own. I was wondering what motivated you or fave you inspiration towards you ideas or what to write. I don’t know where to start or where to look but I really look up to you and your writing

Oh, wow. I always get a little shaky whenever I see something like this. Such an honor!

Well, I’ll be a little cliché here and say J.K. Rowling played a big part (before all that of course), Meg Cabot, Stephenie Meyer (I liked the books when I was 15) and weirdly enough, Marion Zimmer Bradley LOL I read The Mists of Avalon at the same age as I was reading all of those and it inspired the hell out of me!

Nowadays, I like mature stuff lol I can give you some names of naughty authors that inspire me A LOT! And of course, I read a LOT of fanfiction. We have some AMAZING authors that 100% should be published!

[dakara-koko-ni-iru]

when my fave gruvia ff author also ships todomomo! I live!!! bonneyq-sama!

[be-dazzled]

Can you tell me about gruvia fic writers not bonneyq I already read everything of her please! 3🙏

Oh wow this is so embarassing but for someone who claims she's a big Gruvia fan, I don't think I've read a lot about them. Hahaha. Or know many Gruvia writers. Most that I know and whose stories I read and follow are from fanfiction.net

@tobethefairybest ; Kanarenee ; @firstinhatredandlove or NeverInUrWildestDream ; @thewritingstar ; Sauri ;

Most of them have become inactive but they have collection of one-shots which are fun to read.

What? That's all I have?! Hahaha. Well, lucky for you, #GruviaWeek is just around the corner (April 1-7) so don't forget to follow @gruviaweek to see and read amazing works of art and literature from amazing artists and authors.

(Shameless advertising: I'm also a Gruvia fanfic writer so drop by my fanfiction account anytime. And that would be xxbedazzledxx 😉)

The problem with reading and why Sansan ruined me

I've been into fanfiction for the longest time. Ever since back in fifth grade (I think). It started of with Harry Potter. In my native language before I started to wander of into the English realms of fanfiction. And OH BOY™ has this been the best and worst decision of my entire life. Why? It opened so many fandom for me but reading just takes so much time (who hasn't lied about "only one more chapter really").

I began to change fandoms like my underwear and read several ships parallel. All back from Harry Potter, Eragon and everything I could think of really. It was fascinating. And then anime came. I really got into it. Binge watched Fairy Tail until I was at the actual episode and many more. And you guessed it. I shipped them all. In all of them. Always.

And then I saw the GoT memes on 9gag(uses reddit people, don't use 9gag, the memes are delayed), the gifs of Gendry saying to Arya that she was his lady and Arya telling Gendry that she could be his family.

That meant for my younger self to dive headfirst into Gendrya (I haven't seen a single episode or read one of the books at that point of time, I just thought it incredibly cute) and LITERALLY in the first fanfic I read about the two there was the wedding of Sansa, marrying this scarred dude, that Arya did seem to like and not like but she was happy that Sansa was happy. Me thinking it was canon (don't forget what fandoms I've read before) thought damb gotta ship this ship and IMMEDIATELY searched for Sansa x Sandor. Best decision ever. I haven't touched a single Gendrya (main pairing) ever since. Nor have I really read any other ship to this point of time. Which is sad because one of my favorite authors from the Gruvia ship (Fairy Tail) is still posting so many awesome stories and I really want to read them because I know they are probably awesome and I could only bring myself to read the GoT crossover she did :D (Big shoutout to @bonneyq here. You are an amazing author. I've been reading your stories for so long but I just lost interest, not in the ship but in reading fanfic about Fairy Tail in general I think. If I'll ever come back to read Gruvia yours will be the first I'll read! 💖)

That's probably why I also can't read any other Sansa ship seriously. Well I do sometimes (for the glory of smut) but only few and sparsely. I really envy the people who can multiship her. Because then they can read more. But well Sansan has ruined me 🤷🏼.

Which brings me to the next point. I don't know maybe you guys have read "Dirty Little Secrets" by @mynameisnoneya1991 . It's hilarious. I had to laugh so hard while reading it. Now maybe spoiler for the story, so go read it before I continue.

I'm serious read it.

But there is one tiny little thing. She changed the setting to modern and made Sansa write fanfic about Game of Drones (hilarious!) And she changed the names of Sansa and Sandor in the show to Sophie and Rory. And while this is simple but genius as fuck I felt a little bit uncomfortable reading the small passages about Rory and Sophie. Because while being fiction in fiction (ficception) they are real people to me.

Don't get me wrong I still love the story. It's great, honestly (I know I still owe you a comment on it. It'll come). But I can't really help myself. I just tried to read those passages as fast as possible :D

That's probably the reason why I'll never read the Rory Story from @hollandoodle even though she's one of my favorite authors. Her Sansan stories are great, they made me cry and laugh and wait for the next chapters and I couldn't await them. And I'd love to read it but I can't. Sorry (but I'd hug the fuck out of him it I'd ever met him and he'd let me) :D

I hope it's okay I mentioned you people :)

So what I want to say: ship and let people ship, no matter how crack it is but also keep in mind that people might have their own reasons why they don't want to read something even if they can't really explain it themselves.

Stay awesome you guys, all of you. Your stories, all of them, keep the fandom alive, make people laugh and cry. You all have the ability to make me imagine so many things, always remember that, even if there is just one comment on your story, or the people forgot to leave Kudos (I sometimes forget it :( ) don't give up. You're all great 💖

Did Sansan ruin anyone else for other ships? I'll be founding a therapy group then ;)

Author Questions

21. What was the first fanfic you ever wrote? OhkuDa from JE.

22. Is there anything you regret writing? Not particularly about any fic, but I regret not finishing my JE fandom fic and some other fandoms made me leave some fics undone.

23. Name a fic you’ve written that you’re especially fond of & explain why you like it. For one shot, Living Proof. I think I captured a lot of things in that one shot and it gives an overall different perspective in SaiIno relationship. I have to say that it is the work I’m most proud of. And for multichaps, then Make My Heart Beat. I’ve always dreamed to inspire people through my writing so I’m happy that people got inspired by that Gruvia fic.

33. Do you write oneshots, multi-chapter fics or huuuuuge epics? All? LOL

34. What’s the word count on your longest fic? 122,000 words.

35. Do you write drabbles? If so, what do you normally write them about? Yes, in JE fandom. I write about friendships mostly, and my drabbles are usually far deeper than my one-shots and multichaps that people need to read twice to really get the double meaning.

36. What’s your favourite genre to write? Slice of life and adventures.

37. First person or third person - what do you write in and why? Third person. I can expand the plot more. First person is too limited in driving the story.

38. Do you use established canon characters or do you create OCs? Established canon as much as possible. Only when I have no choice then I create an OC.

39. What is you greatest strength as a writer? I dont know LOL. Do I even have one? XD

43. Is there anyone in your fandom who really inspires you? A lot LOL. There are a lot of awesome people in fandom and they amused me without fail!

44. What ship do you feel needs more attention? RoyAi. Like… They’re the best pairing ever and they dont even get a closure. So sad…

45. What is your all time favourite fanfic? A lot and most of them are left unfinished. But some finished ones like Heartaches & Devotion (Gruvia), Shadow (Zerith), and a few other great one shots

46. If someone was to read one of your fanfics, which fic would you recommend to them and why? New Day of SasuSaku becoz I want people to understand there exists forgiveness no matter how huge the sin was. It’s all within us

47. Archive Of Our Own, Fanfiction.net or Tumblr - where do you prefer to post and why? Fanfiction.net coz I dont have AO3 account and Tumblr is too general a blog

48. Do you leave reviews when you read fanfiction? Why/Why not? Yes. I love letting people know what I think of their writing. It shows the writer what the reader thinks behind his writing
