[seven-stars-in-his-palm]

ok. i took a long, long time (song ref) but hi!!!!!!!!!

1. titanic fic (*cue shit-eating grin*). umum. im curious if there's anything about the morse code yet. or codes in gen actually. so. sentences with the word "code" :3

2. titanic vid!!!! Idk if you like the engineering aspects, but there still were a ton of other facts sprinkled in (spiral staircases, people that monitored coal balance, separate staff room for firemen, how they got air down there etc) https://youtube.com/watch?v=4begc_U8ygI#searching

3. surprise!! this is an interview. i have some Official Author questions for you (feel free to pick and choose, come back to this later, or just striaght up ignore lol):

3a. Do you have any authors (professional or not) that you aspire to be like one day?

3b. Following that up, are there any specific works (again, published, professional, etc or just amazing amateur works!!) that really inspire you?

3c. What made you start writing? I'm curious on anything that led to the conscious decision, of course, but additionally do you think there was anything you grew up with that "planted the seeds"? Was it any of the people from question 3a?

3d. What's the silliest (/pos) idea you've ever had for a fic? If you didn't write/publish it, why not? Was it a recent thing? If not, do you think your experience would have influenced that idea today?

if those dont make sense u can send me a messgae or something 👍👍👍 goodnight

ITS BEEN THREE DAYS but im here okay……. lets do this. hi pep :>

1) alas, i’ve been focusing on a lot of other things so i havent reached a written point of the Code Usage, which begins in like chapter 3-4. sorry man 💔 (progress has been made ! just not as much as i’d hope 😭)

2) FUN FACTS?!??!??!??!!?!!? IM WATCHING A DOCUMENTARY RN BUT IM YOINKING THIS RIGHT AFTER YIPPIE!!!!!!!!

3a) uhmmmmmmmm i dont exactly pay attention to authors as much as i pay attention to books but you know what. rick riordan. not because of anything he’s done or written but because of his audacity to write 20+ books in the same universe and still get 100000000000000 people 1000000% invested in it. i wanna write sequels forever. can i be him

3b) OHHHHHHHH UHM UHM UHM UHM the thing that got me into fanfic specifically was the fic “versability” (it was a gf fic about ‘what if ford never made the portal’, written like 2015-16, and yeah i did know of and even read a bit of fic beforehand but i was never into it) but just READING ? the land of stories by chris colfer, easy. mmmmmmmmm that was my fucking Thing. if i wasnt a baby at that time i would have WROTE. SO. MUCH. GOOD GOD. IT WAS MY THING. THE THING THAT GOT ME INTO NOVELS. URGH. alex my iconic mentally ill bisexual, conner my precious cynical boy. i need to read those again my GOD now i think about it that was fairytale fanfiction that happejed to bepublished and ohhhhh it was beautiful. im gonna read jt . iM GONNA DO IT!!!!

3c) in writing in general or just fanfic? for fanfic its that one day i had an gf fic idea (that i had to heavily revise/rewrite, but it did end up getting out eventually) that i hadnt read anything like it, and i wanted to see it. decided: hey, im shit at writing, but might as well!!!!!! 65k words later, its not a joke anymore. im a Writer now :) but as for in general, well ofc reading books. people told me in the past im creative and should get into book writing if you like reading so much. i decided well im gonna do it professionally, but might as well do something tiny, so i well uh wrote. im not gonna tell you but it certainly was Something. classic isekai mary sue dramatic plot hybrids etc etc etc but actually the queen the mc is “related” to is actually polyam and was in a relationship with both their dad and their mom and the big villain is the queen’s sister who’s pissed that both of her lovers ditched her for the human world (but actually they had to break up because because the society was not polyam friendly. there just happened to be a war after that). everything else was basic isekai except for that little crumble of lore. the queen was a bisexual. the dad was a pansexual. the mom was a lesbian. i think i ate there to be honest

3d) mmmmmm i gotta think. there was definitely a gf x amphibia au where ford got ploped in amphibia and the plantars IMMEDIATELY stole him and wrapped him up in their adventures right when the plot starting becoming a thing (early season 2). there’s one where stan and ford just….. climb a tree. it’s laced with a lot of philosophical talks straight from good omens knowledge but ultimately its just goody fun. mmmmm theres one where gabriel has no idea what crowley looks like, but he DOES know what Bildad The Shuite looks like, itd be tiny but so so so so funny. the gf/gomens crossover…..a human au based on that one tumblr post about a necromancer bringing people back from the dead to fuck with the killer and opening a discord support group….. the s1 humans + aziraphale being the victims, crowley the necromancer, and the s2 humans being the nosy outsiders who Notice things happens but can never say shit. oughhhh……… Yeah. yeah, thats good. most of these are recent except 4 the amphibia one, wouldnt change much about it even with the shit i know now EXCEPT being able to handle the relationships/emotions between the characters better, ive certainly gotten better at it and i love it. i havent published any bc either i started but couldnt finished, or just thought it was neat and moved on to plop it in the ideas folder and wait 4 inspiration.

OKAY THATS A LOT BUT THERE YOU GO sorry for the wait, man. you’re my best cupperty you know that right 🫵 ANSWERS!!!!! and ill work on titanic as fast as i can, it hasnt been forgotten !! i just gotta mow the grass….. (“short” fic wips)

Out of curiousity how many wips do you have right now? I saw your old post about how you had 3 active wips but you've posted more since then so I guess I'm wondering if any of those other wips are going to bepublished anytime soon (please say yes)

Hello! I’m sorry to have to say that I don’t know if any of those WIPs are going to make it to AO3 in the near future. Let me go through my docs and I’ll do a proper rundown of what I have in my docket at the moment.

Actively working on:

flesh and bone (the Ghost!Cormoran AU, which is happening much faster than anticipated, but also is getting bigger than I planned!)

second chapter of “this photo of us” (first chapter is up, I had most of the second chapter done when I posted.... and then scrapped a lot of it, and now I’m here, oh dear)

A TBA fic (this one may end up being back-burnered, I’m not sure how much of it I can finish at the moment)

Next in the queue (back burner fics):

the Mystery Writer AU (this one is spiraling rather magnificently, they’re barely friends yet! I thought I’d get to something more significant by this point, I’m afraid I’m in over my head)

Showing-Up-Drunk AU (this one is hopefully getting to the good stuff soon)

Various ideas, other prompts, and daydreams: 10 or so various page-long drafts, compilations of notes, and sentence-long summaries, including things as short as “Robin’s patronus?” and “phone sex”

I hope this is helpful to you. I usually try to have no more than three “main” WIPs at a given time, so that I have room to bounce from one to another without having too many balls in the air, to mix metaphors. I’m a bit scattered right now, especially with everything going on in the world, so I’m bouncing a bit more than usual.

I do plan to get something new posted soon! I very much appreciate the excitement people have shown for my work here on Tumblr. Being able to post bits on Sundays and Wednesdays helps me keep my momentum going on projects that might otherwise stagnate. Thank you all so much for that!

is Ghost of Tsushima's spiritual son up to the task?

is Ghost of Tsushima’s spiritual son up to the task?

The game may bepublished by Devolver Digital, the American publisher that needs no introduction, and developed by Flying Wild Hog, the Polish studio behind the recent Shadow Warriors, it is indeed a trip to Japan that Trek to Yomi invites us. And the change of scenery is not only geographical, since the adventure takes us back to both the era of the samurai (in substance) and that of Akira…

Writing and Shit - part 35 - If you want to be published, you mustn't write for the dead

I feel very sorry for writers who commit so many years to writing for readers who died before they themselves were even born. This week's blog is on high shelf words, pastiche and gatekeepers. #writingtips #bepublished

If a reader doesn’t know a word, if they are forced to look it up in an online dictionary, it will stop them dead. It will break them out of the reading trance (I’ll write about this soon). And – almost certainly – it will them feel lacking in intelligence, stupid.

It’s not a good idea to make your reader feel stupid. Not if you want them to continue to be your reader.

Some writing – of course –…
