i was tagged by @rolling-blunder, thank you so much!!

2. Which fanfic of yours has the most feedback? (bookmarks/subscriptions/hits/kudos)

the mermaid au by far has the most of all those (116 subscriptions, 67 bookmarks, 4542 hits, 342 kudos, 55 comment threads) the next most in hits has over 3000 less

3. What is your AO3 profile icon, and why did you choose it?

my icon is what my avatar here used to be and it’s oikawa through a sepia filter bc i just like the sepia filter

i actually read most of my fics over and over bc tbh i like a lot of what i write and i write it mostly for myself and what i want to see

i have 54 bookmarks and i’m subscribed to a lot more

244 subscriptions in general

169 total bookmarks

i don’t really think there’s anything i’m afraid of people judging me for like story idea wise or anything

10. Is there anything you would like to be better at? Writing certain scenes or genres, replying to comments, updating better, etc.

updating more often, replying to comments, finishing things quickly, using less dialogue, using more descriptions of things, tbh a lot of things

11. Do you write rarepairs or popular ships more often?

i tend to write popular ships more often, but i do occasionally throw in rarepair fics 

12. How many stories have you posted on AO3 to this day (finished and unfinished)?

19 so far

13. How many stories do you have saved in/with your writing program?

a lot more than 19

14. Do you write down story ideas, or just keep them in your head?

both. sometimes i tell someone about the idea i have for a story and that’s where it’s written down (btw you could literally message me and ask about any kind of new fic idea and i would 100% be down with sharing) but until i actually start writing the fic i usually keep it in my head bc if i write down something in a doc i’ll start writing even if i don’t have time (aka pirate captain witch oikawa)

15. Have you ever co-authored a story?

not yet

16. How did you discover AO3?

i don’t remember lmao

17. Do you consider yourself to be a popular or famous author in your fandom(s) on AO3?

i don’t think i am? but idk

18. Do you have a nickname or fandom name for your readers?

not really?

19. Was there an author who inspired or encouraged you to write?

a lot of what i read is inspiration and i have a lot of people that are very supportive and encouraging to me, but i don’t think i’ve got anyone specific?

20. What writing advice would you give to a beginning author?

Keep trying! Keep writing! Watch Brooklyn 99 season 5 episode 8! You get better the more you write, I promise

21. Do you plot out your stories, or do you just figure it out as you go?

it’s kinda a mix of both, but i mostly figure stuff out as i go

22. Have you ever gotten a bad comment on a story? If so, what did you do?

I haven’t ever really gotten a bad comment, which I’m super grateful for

23. Is there a certain type of scene that you have a hard time writing? (action, smut, etc..)

it’s really just the scenes that i don’t want to write that are hard, like if i’m really close to the scene i actually started a story for, everything up to that is hard because i’m so close to what i want to write but it’s still so far away

24. What story(s) are you working on now?

the mermaid au

magic mirror (which once i update it again is probably gonna be my main focus bc i’m close to the end)

oh absolutely i’ve improved since i started, i improve a lot even like from one fic to another

28. What is your favorite story that you’ve written?

no you can’t make me pick a favorite. I really like of hidden towns and the people that find them (and also from the castle to the woods) because i feel like i’ve put the most effort into like editing and making sure theyre both well written

29. What is your least favorite story that you’ve written?

no one would recognize it probably, but it’s titled Hide And Seek and i always regret continuing it past a oneshot

30. Where do you see yourself (as a writer) in 5 years?

i’m not really sure because things don’t really keep my attention for long and this is one of those things that i’m just like... waiting for it to fade out? i don’t really plan into the future for things or think about it just because so much can change, but if i am still writing, hopefully i’ll have finished my original work and i’ll still be writing fanfics

31. What is the easiest thing about writing?

ideas and wanting to write

32. What is the hardest thing about writing?

writing (and summaries and titles because i’m super picky about titles like it has to feel just right for me to use it and that’s why there’s some things i won’t post to ao3 because i can’t get the right title)

33. Why do you write?

i enjoy it and it’s something to do with my time and i love getting feedback and things like that and interacting with other people. writing is primarily a mode of communication and i just want to share what i’ve created with other people

I’m gonna tag anyone in @thewritersquad who wants to do this or anyone who writes in general!

[loud-unknown]

1. A show that never should have been canceled 

In opinions I’m pretty sure only I have - Conviction was a masterpiece and Law & Order season 19 was the greatest season they have made, so canceling both was a travesty. Also, there were rumors that Alanna de la Garza’s pregnancy would be written in if L&O had continued and just guh. 

2. A show you wish more people were watching

Superstore! Please tell your friends about this show! 

3. Your favorite new show (aired this tv season)

One Day at a Time

4. Your favorite show ever

Brooklyn 99

5. A show you hate

I hate what happened to How I Met Your Mother

6. Favorite episode of your favorite TV show

Halloween IV 

7. Least favorite episode of your favorite TV show

Community used to be my favorite until Lawnmower Maintenance. It wasn’t enough that they destroyed Britta as a character, but it was established that her relationship with her parents fell apart because they didn’t believe her when she was 11 and told them she had been molested by a man in a dinosaur costume. And then to erase that and make their relationship problems about Britta’s immaturity? Just absolutely no. 

8. A show everyone should watch 

Early Orange is the New Black

9. Best scene ever

Bridget and Franky dancing to the Divinyls in the Wentworth season 4 premiere. It’s like a minute and I love it with my whole heart. 

10. A show you thought you wouldn’t like, but ended up loving

It took me forever to get into Parks and Rec (I got through season 1 no problem, but then got stuck at season 4). Finally powered through and it was everything I had been promised. 

11. A show that disappointed you

People who have looked at this blog for more than a minute may guess Jane the Virgin. Victorious also could have been so much more than it was. 

12. An episode you’ve watched more than 5 times

God, so many. Episode of any TV show I’ve seen the most times is probably Guilt from SVU 

13. Favorite childhood show

Drake and Josh

14. Favorite male character

Alex Karev, Ray Holt

15. Favorite female character

Bea Smith’s character development is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen. Elena Alvarez is the most seen I’ve ever felt. 

16. Your guilty pleasure show

Grey’s at this point

17. Favorite mini-series

PEOPLE v. OJ SIMPSON

18. Favorite title sequence

Friends 

19. Best tv show cast

Victorious had an insanely talented and tragically wasted cast. 

20. Favorite kiss

Ignoring literally everything that came before and after - Lu/Su in Chapter 33

21. Favorite ship

Alex/Olivia, Jade/Tori, Jeff/Britta. Not a ship, ship but I also adore Frankie/Sol’s and Mark/Callie’s friendship/love for each other.

22. Favorite series finale

Scrubs

23. Most annoying character

Cannot stand Maggie on Grey’s

24. Best quote

Because the truth is, I’m lying when I say there is no truth. The truth is — the pathetically, stupidly, inconveniently obvious truth is — helping only ourselves is bad and helping each other is good. It’s that easy. You just stop thinking about what’s good for you and start thinking about what’s good for someone else. And you can change the whole game with one move.

25. A show you plan on watching (old or new)

I need to watch Buffy

26. OMG WTF? Season finale

JANE THE VIRGIN

27. Best pilot episode

....jane the virgin 

28. First tv show obsession

Drake and Josh. Entirely because of Mindy Crenshaw

29. Current tv show obsession

Superstore 

30. Saddest character death 

Mark Sloan

Month in Review // So Many Readathons! – April | Part 1

My brain is tired.

This Month in Review post is going to look a little different!

This first post is just going to be about what I read, watched and listened to because… well there’s a lot! I mean it’s mostly books. But like. A lot of fucking books.

Well that’s not entirely true. It’s mostly because I decided to participate in loads of readthons! Not bad for someone who participated in their first ever readathon this year!

And I just couldn’t figure out a way to format things in a more space-efficient way without sacrificing how I like my posts to look. Perfectionism is a curse, honestly.

I didn’t want to put everything in one post because then it would have been v. v. long. and no one has the attention span for that…I sure don’t!

So you can find Part Two for this post as an extra post, outside of my usual blogging schedule, on Thursday!

If you would like to buy any of the following books please consider using my Book Depository Affliate link!

If you click on any of the fan art in this post it will take you to the artist’s page!

      O.W.L.s TBR

Half way through the month I watched a few O.W.L.s TBR video’s on Youtube and decided I would participate as long as the books I was already reading for the UnsolvedAThon would fit the prompts.

If you don’t know what the O.W.L.s readathon is you can check it out in the link above. It’s basically a readathon created by Gintare @ Book Roast on Youtube so us mere muggles could experience the exams that students at Hogwarts have to experience!

I had initially wanted to join O.W.L.s when I first heard of it in March but brushed it off as impossible since I was already doing a pretty major readathon.

Well it turns out that I could participate without having to read any extra books I hadn’t already decided to read!

I decided to sit my exams for the Professor career. There were quite a few career’s I would have preferred but unfortunately it was required to read the History of Magic prompt, which is a book at least 10 years old and I just didn’t have time to add another book to my TBR. Plus the only books I know I own that meet that requirement are IT and Game of Thrones and fuck that. I definitely don’t have time for those!

For the Professor career you get to choose which subject you want to teach! I would have chosen to be a History of Magic professor but, like I said, none of the books on my TBR fit the prompt. Instead I have chosen Ancient Runes!.. Or maybe astronomy???

I don’t know! I just covered both topics and then I’ll decide when its time for the N.E.W.T.s, a readathon connected to the O.W.L.s, in August! Not being able to choose which subject is very on brand for me.

Ancient Runes 

Read a retelling

│Toil & Trouble││

Arithmancy

Read a work written by more than one author

│Toil & Trouble││

Astronomy

Read a book with Star in the title

│The Morning Star││

Care of Magical Creatures

│City of Ghosts││

Charms

Age-line: Read an adult book

│The Rook││

Defence Against the Dark Arts

Reducto: Read a title that starts with R

Herbology

Read a book with a plant on the cover

│Toil & Trouble││

Muggle Studies

Read a contemporary

Transfiguration

│City of Ghosts││

I did it!

      YA Bookaholics April Readathon

I decided last minute, again, to participate in another readathon! This one was hosted by the YA Bookaholics group on Goodreads and for that one we kept track of how many pages we read!

Month’s TBW

│Game of Thrones│Season 2-3││

│The Bold Type│Season 3││

│Brooklyn Nine-Nine│Season 6││

│RuPaul’s Drag Race│Season 11││

│On My Block│Season 2││

│Captain Marvel││

│Avengers Endgame││

I plan on seeing this with my mum on Mother’s Day!

│Us││

I was going to see this while my car was being serviced but there wasn’t a screening on at the right time for me.

     Watched

│Younger│Season 1-4││2015│ Darren Star│ Sutton Foster, Miriam Shor, Hilary Duff│

There is so much about this show that I don’t like, that annoys me a ridiculous amount and yet…I can’t stop watching it. It’s a problem. And there’s only 12 episodes each season and they’re only 20 minutes each. It’s so easy to put this show on and not think about anything but how stupid the characters are.

Except Maggie. I love Maggie.

│The Bold Type│Season 3││2017│ Sarah Watson│ Katie Stevens, Aisha Dee, Meghann Fahy│

I love this show so fucking much. I was hoping Younger would be just an older version of The Bold Type… And yet The Bold Type shows far more maturity, actually has character growth, and I don’t want to punch any of the main characters which is far more than I can say for Younger.

│RuPaul’s Drag Race│Season 11││2009│ RuPaul│RuPaul, Michelle Visage│Watching weekly episodes│

I’m still living for this season. I’m glad to see more of Plastique’s personality and Vanjie is still giving me life.

│Game of Thrones│Season 2-5││2011│ David Benioff, D.B. Weiss│ Emilia Clarke, Peter Dinklage, Kit Harington│

I—I forgot what an actual shit storm I had to endure. Like I knew. But I forgot how bad it was all the time. It just doesn’t stop. 

But I’m loving making snide smart-ass comments throughout now that I know what happens.

Like bitch, you about to dieeeeeeee.

Fuck your honour, I’d rather survive, to be honest.

Also this re-watch is just a reminder of how fucking much I love Tyrion. And Briene. And Arya. And Sansa, god I love her so much more now. And Podrick, bless him.

Mum and I are getting through the seasons so quickly (thank you Easter weekend!) that now I’m worried we’re gonna finish it before the last season is completely out.

│Captain Marvel││2019│ Anna Boden, Ryan Fleck│ Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn│

I went and saw this with my mum and omg it was sooooooo good.

This was better than Wonder Woman. I would die for Carol Danvers and Fury and his fucking cat.

Also I would fucking love to see grown up Scientist Monica in End Game, kicking ass STEM style.

│Bonding│Season 1││2019│ Rightor Doyle│ Zoe Levin, Brendan Scannell, Kevin Kane │

Youtube

│Ladylike│Devin Shares Her Sexual Assault Story│

I sobbed, like ugly crying, can’t breath, quiet sobbing.

Obviously it’s a very triggering video so please don’t watch it if it’ll harm your mental health!!!! You’re health comes first!

If you’re someone who wants to try and understand what its like for women who experience sexual assault then this is a good video to watch.

│Jessica Kellgren-Fozard│Royal Inbreeding Gone Wrong! (Was It Ever Right?) // Charles II [CC]│Am I Disabled Enough? // ft. Hannah Witton [CC]│LGBTQ+ Relationships Should Be Taught In Schools [CC]│Royal Drama! // How Historically Accurate is Mary Queen of Scots? [CC]│A Lesbian Queen of England!? How Historically Accurate is The Favourite? [CC]│The Bisexual Artist Who Changed The World From Bed // Frida Kahlo [CC]│Deaf, Blind and Awkward // Helen Keller // #DisabilityHistoryMonth [CC]│The deaf princess who became a style icon // Queen Alexandra // #DisabilityHistoryMonth [CC]│

OMG. So i stumbled upon this youtuber ages ago because I saw that she did a video on how historically accurate The Favourite was and I was panning to watch that movie. So I watched it and then forgot about Jessica’s video but she popped up in my feed again and so I spent almost the entire last day of the month binge watching her videos when i should have been doing food shopping.

Anyway I love her, she’s disabled, and super gay and vintage and really outspoken about being disabled and super gay and I love her.

She is also someone who makes learning history really fucking fun. Her Royal Inbreeding Gone Wrong! video is especially funny and she also has a video on disabled & queer historical figures and a video on how historically accurate the Mary Queen of Scots movie is!

A lot of her videos are closed captioned (not just the predicted captions, like actually people sat down and took the time to create accurate captions for her videos) and I super appreciate it as someone with audio processing issues and a mum who can’t sleep with any volume above like a 5. You can tell which ones by the [CC] in the title!

She’s amazing and if you’re going to check out any new youtubers in the immediate future, it should be Jessica.
