Before Love: A Nico Elena fic
The Sweetest Oblivion Prologue #NicoElena
Tumblr media Tumblr media
New NicoElena fic / prologue can be read on AO3 and Wattpad.
SUMMARY:
Told in dual POVs, this two-shot shows Elena and Nico reminiscing their past relationships before they met each other, and how it made them who they are today. Elena remembers the boy who gifted her the ring and who took her virginity. Nico remembers all the shadows of his past, who all pale in comparison to what he feels for Elena now.
Note that this NicoElena fic contains explicit scenes.
EXCERPT:
Our bodies became one, a pulsating need of sweat and warmth and lust. He continued to kiss me, burying his lips in my neck and over my boobs, even sucking a nipple. I threw my head back, crying out in ecstasy, even as he placed his mouth on mine to silence me. Throughout it all, his grinding hips never lost its pace as he thrust in me again again, and my hips rising up again and again in an attempt to match the rhythm he craved.
Soon enough he was moving against me so hard and so fast that I could scarcely catch breath nor keep up. The wildfire feeling was still there, burning more than ever, spreading throughout my body and threatening to singe my limbs and face alive with the heat of its flames. With a guttural cry, I threw my head back and let the feeling consume me, a rush of ecstasy coming across me so violently that I shuddered. He did the same, moaning all the while, as he crashed against me, landing a few more thrusts before stopping and spilling his seed into me. I wondered if we would have yelled each other’s name, had we known what to call each other.

Also not me watching all the book twit drama happening rn and realizing i literally knew the person responsible for the whole mess back in ye olde cosplay days lmaoo 💀 I was literally her handler all day at an anime for a cosplay contest years ago this shit is so wild.
Disclaimer, we were not close by any means, I was a teenager at the time and was trying to help out an internet friend when she needed a handler at a con that I frequented. We moved in the same circles in the cosplay community when she was still doing that, but did not talk super frequently (and not at all for several years now, we stopped being mutuals when she left cosplaying) so its not like i have ‘insider info’ or anything, its just crazy to see people I used to know come up like this.
If ppl reading this don’t know what’s going on and are curious, you can check out Xiran Jay Zhao (author of the Iron Widow books) posts on Twitter/Tiktok that explain everything.
Anyways, please support all the lovely debut authors she tried to screw over and their upcoming 2024 debuts!

I have a certain distrust towards books popular on booktok & book twt bc all I ever see from them is the same straight romance YA novel over and over again with slight variations, and while people are valid if they like that, its really not my scene

When Insecurity Makes You Racist
Ya'll, I've got some stuff I wanna get off my chest.
So this morning there I was, drinking my tea, trying to decide which story I was going to continue working on, minding my own damn business for once when on twitter (I'm not calling it X. I said it, and I don't care) I saw a tweet from a mutual talking about some Chucklehead who had created a burner account on Goodreads (seriously, who the fuck does this?) and was mass one-starring books by other indie authors on there. Wait, because there's more.
As if this wasn't shitty enough, this person was also five-starring their own book, which will debut in 2024.
Tumblr media
Did you fucking ever??
So, naturally, I did some digging as I do because I'm nosy af. Fortunately, I wasn't the only one wanting to know the tea, but unfortunately, it doesn't appear as though there's much more information out there except that this author, who I will remind you has not even published their book yet, is acting a damn fool and threatening their own career before it even kicks off.
I did manage to find this thread, which appears to be the original tweet that kicked all this off on twitter, but doesn't go into very much detail. It does, however, reveal another sickening aspect of this fuckery that l i t e r a l l y makes me want to riot, and that this...author was/is "using clearly POC names in the fake accounts to upvote every negative review on POC books so the top ones are all one and two star."
It got me to thinking about how precious and valuable reviews are. How much we crave them as indie authors because it's what will boost our books in the algorithm and get our book into the hands of the next reader. It's our lifeblood. A review and/or rating on Goodreads can absolutely make a difference, especially to indie authors since we only have ourselves and the generosity of our peers to market our books.
So, for an author to betray that is such a disheartening thing. I can't imagine taking the time to create a burner account for the sole purpose of trying to tear down my fellow indies. What's worst, and most likely the most egregious aspect of all of this is that they're weaponizing a POC identity (which I don't even know that they are actually POC) in order to tear down POC authors.
Being an indie author is hard. You're responsible for every aspect of writing, preparing, marketing and selling your book. There's an enormous amount of pressure that naturally comes with being an indie author. Not to mention the constant intrusive thoughts of "what if no one reads my book?" It's hard. But to go out of your way to sabotage other authors so that your book does well is not the way. As indies, we've GOT to have each other's backs, and yes, even call each other out when necessary. This person has not been identified as of yet, and I honestly don't know how I feel about that.
On one hand, there is zero attention on them as an individual and all the attention on their racism and blantant disrespect for the indie community, specifically the POC author community, and therefore their book, name is not receiving any attention apart from the five stars they're giving themselves. But on the other hand, does this mean they're going to be able to get away with their behavior?
It would be bad enough if this were a one-off thing, where they posted one bad review and upvoted themselves one time. I would still say expose their asses if I'm being honest. But this is m u l t i p l e instances of this and in a short period of time.
This is not okay.
And will them getting away with it encourage them to do it again or do something similar?
Personally, I want to know who they are so that I don't support them even by accident, but I know it isn't necessarily my place to demand this. We'll see what happens. As of right now, it appears the person who first posted about it is giving them a chance to knock it the fuck off, which is so incredibly generous, and in my opinion is more than they deserve.
I don't know if this person will heed their advice and stop the fuckery, but I know that I cant just sit idly by and wait for tea — though I most certainly will be watching this and waiting for any additional tea, because friends, I AM A NOSEY BITCH! That and I want to make sure this author never accidently ends up in my TBR because literally fuck them, and their racist burner accounts.
Still, this whole thing makes me want to do something. Not just talk about doing something or talk about how fucked this is — and it is, absolutely fucked. So I kept digging, hoping to at least find a list of those authors targeted so that I could use what platform I have to share their work.
The only post I've been able to find thus far is this one, calling for exactly the same thing, a list of all the authors who have been victimized by a person that should have been cheering them on, not plotting and mobilizing to sabotage them. Thus far, only one name has been identified, at least that I have found, but I will be keeping my eyes open for more, and I will update this post every time I find a new name. I implore you, if you're a reader and want to support indie authors, give their books a read. Leave them a review on Goodreads as well as on Amazon (just copy and paste the same one, I promise it's fine) so that their book gets pushed out and promoted to other readers.
The Poisons We Drink by Bethany Baptiste follows Venus Stoneheart as she avenges the murder of her mother while navigating the corrupt political atmosphere of DC. I will be reading and reviewing this book on my blog as the synopsis sounds bad ass. The link above will take you directly to Bethany's website where you can get more details on this novel.
In the meantime, don't fucking do this if you're an indie author. Don't do this at all even if you're not an indie author. It's gross, it's racist, and it's going to take all of us together to combat this nonsense.
