I've been MIA from this platform for so long that I'm not even sure how to navigate it anymore...or how to return lol

But HELLO. It's been a minute. More than a minute, I know. And I think I might be back? (Kinda?)

The itch to write again is slowly coming back after years of none. Health problems mainly kept me away for a while...and then it turned into general busy life stuff. That continues but I've also been getting back into reading for the first time in nearly two decades. I'm officially an ACOTAR girlie and this series is ruining me. I'm not through the books yet but I have a lot of...feelings. And opinions. And a quick glance through the tags of this fandom the past few days is making me think I might be in the minority. Ah. That tends to be my luck, I guess lol

I'm craving to write a long, complex Lucien/Elucien fic because OMG I NEED THE INSUFFERABLE PAIN AND LONGING AND NASTY SEX AT THE END OF IT ALL BECAUSE MY FOX BOY DESERVES HIS HAPPINESS DAMNIT AND ELAIN DESERVES SOMEONE WORTHY OF HER.

So, yeah, I think that's gonna happen at some point.

Just happy to even have the creative spark again. It's been a long while. I know I still have fics to finish and, believe me, I still regularly think about them and want to complete them. Hopefully I can sooner rather than later.

For any one of my readers who may see this really random post, I hope you're well. Know that I've missed this space and interacting with you. I hope to start reacquainting myself with my favorite fandoms and ships, both old and new, soon. ❤️

Not an ask, more like a confession; I feel like crmediagal's "Unquestionable Love: The Prequel" became one of the most underrated Snamione fanfics ever, or is it just me? I feel like no one talks about them, even though it provides one of the best storylines and character buildup I've ever witnessed during my time as a Snamione shipper.

I'm gonna be 100% honest with you and say that I don't remember ever reading it, and probably because I was intimated by the word count. But I'd love to bring it to the attention of others:

Unquestionable Love: The Prequel by CRMediaGal - M, 70 chapters - The beginnings of an unconventional relationship between a professor and his student are tested by war, secrets, prejudice, and perseverance. Epic novel with angst, drama, and blossoming romance. Prequel to Unquestionable Love. HBP to Post-Hogwarts era.

Your Snape is so beautiful! Especially Post-HP7!Snape with his neck scars. Thank you for sharing your art.

Thank YOU for sending me this message ❤❤Hopefully I get more inspiration for a new episode of the Snape Lives AU soon

If you're still doing the writing ask: 10, 11, 18?

11. if you could have another author write your wip for you (bc we all dream of this occasionally), who would it be?Oh, can I get Neil Gaiman to do it? 

10. does your writing style change depending on the genre you write?I don’t think so?  People tell me it’s recognizable from fanfic to original so...

18. a cliché thing you use in your writing?Enemies to lovers and Mary Sues for days.  

from writing style asks

[crmediagal]

Finally figured out some dialogue that's moving this story along. I'd been a bit hung up on details for weeks and I'm both frustrated with my slow writing these days but the execution feels more sincere than it ever has.

Just going to trust the process, even if it chooses to work at a snail's pace.

For better or worse, their worlds are about to collide, perhaps even unite them against a common enemy.

crmediagal replied to your post “but when will Adam Driver narrate audiobooks? record a podcast? voice...”

He voices the Infinity commercials, if that counts ;)

THIS IS THE BEST NEWS. In looking for them I also found this list of all his commercials, so thank you friend 😍

[blxck-cxffee13]

Writer would you ever...write about your OTP ending up as friends at the end of a story rather than lovers?

Hnnnng?!?!

I mean... maybe??? I think it would depend entirely on the context of the story???

I’m not saying I wouldn’t do it, that’s for sure :P

crmediagal replied to your post “I don’t know. It doesn’t seem worth the effort today to spend hours...”

Ohhh I get this in my soul. There's no enthusiasm when I update lol And I used to update pretty regularly. And #notgoodenough is my middle name. :/ I hope these thoughts lift for you soon...

I was thinking about your comment as my physical therapist did horrible things to my shoulder because musing on the demon that is ambition is a good distractor from severe physical discomfort.   I think, sometimes, people forget that we Slytherins are AMBITIOUS.  That burning hunger that nothing can sate is one of the things that drives Riddle, and us I think.  We want to be better, have more, get more, and are never sated.  And part of that thing that drives us is the demon whispering ‘not good enough’ in our ears.   No measurable goal will ever be enough.  We hit it and then all we can see is the next goal post.

It’s a curse but I don’t want to give it up.
