Story: Sin

@dimples33 please come home🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[weretheoneswhowrite]

Questions Answered....

With multiple stories under her belt @dimples33 truly has something for everyone. From the priesthood hotness of Rick in Sin to the gorgeous princess Michonne in Something New and a whole host of others in between, you won't be disappointed reading through her story list.

Let's find out how it all started and what she has in store for the future.

Why is Richonne so fun to write about?

“Richonne is so fun to write about because they are the first and only TV couple that I’ve been so invested in. I had never heard of ‘shipping’ before that but when I got familiar with the term no other TV couple came close to their unique dynamic. Michonne is the Ying to Rick’s Yang. She is able to reach Rick even in his murderous mode and can talk him down from any cliff while Rick seeks Michonne’s counsel and approval when he has to make critical decisions and listens to her. I watch a lot of TV shows and I have yet to see that kind of energy with any other TV couple.”

Do you have a writing schedule?

“Because of my heavy workload during the week I tend to write/update and possible try to post on weekends. If I’m not satisfied with my writing progress on weekends I will try to squeeze in a couple hours at night before bed. However, when I actually have a schedule I never follow it. Lol!!!”

What is your editing process?

“Write, read, edit, put down for a couple days, re-read, edit and put down for a couple days again. When I feel flustered one of my cousins who like my stories reads them and helps me edit as well.”

What drew you to fanfiction?

“It’s more like who for me and it’s one word….severelybabykryptonite. I was randomly searching the internet when I came across the story ‘The Sweetest Thang’ by @severelybabykryptonite aka SBK. It was such a beautiful love story. I followed the link to fanfiction.net. I will never forget that day – May 2nd 2016. That day changed me. I have been writing stories since I was a child but never even entertained the thought of actually putting it out there for anyone to read. My family didn’t even know that I wrote in my spare time. That day means everything to me. Thank you SBK.”

What has writing fanfiction taught you about being a writer?

“That I should believe in myself more. I was terrified when I posted the first chapter to my first fanfiction TWD Chronicles and almost got a heart attack when the first review came in just an hours later. The more I post chapters and the more reviews came in, my confidence grew. I realized that I do have something to offer however small it is.”

Who outside the fandom knows you write fanfiction?

“Exactly four people – my cousin who helps me edit sometimes, my niece, a former law classmate and her sister.”

How many people know you’re a writer?

“One person – my cousin who helps me edit. I don’t get many opportunities to talk about my writing unfortunately.”

Where do you see your writing taking you?

“For now, it’s for my own pleasure but hopefully in the near future to write full time. Having one of my stories turned into a Netflix series or Hollywood movie would be nice.”

Do you have advice for writers just starting out?

“I follow four simple principles - i) Always put your best foot forward in everything you do, ii) Don’t try to please everyone because it’s not physically, mentally or emotionally possible, iii) Be respectful and most importantly, iv) Just do you and be yourself.”

What do you wish you knew before posting your first chapter?

“OMG!! The editing process!! I wish I knew more about the editing. It would have made things a lot easier.”

How many writing playlist do you have? Does your music have to change with what you write?

“I don’t have a playlist and I usually don’t listen to music when I write. Most times I’m sitting on the floor in the living room with the TV on in the background or I’m on the bed with my cat purring and massaging my back!! Lol”

How many projects do you have going on right now?

“I have 9 fanfiction stories, some of which needs updating like asap. As for original works, I have several. However, right now I am focusing mainly on three which I hope to launch on my website next year. I’m working eagerly towards that goal. My fingers and toes are crossed.”

Have you ever written a scene that made you cry?

“The scene in my story Mirror when Michonne was running down the street barefoot behind the van that kidnapped her daughter broke me. I remember writing and my chest was constricting and my hands were trembling. I needed some time off after writing that chapter. Then in Journey when those racist pricks threw garbage on Michonne when Rick was buying her ice-cream, I cried. That was hard to write.”

Where do you get your best story ideas?

“I know this might sound crazy and sometime I think I am but I see stories everywhere. I see stories sitting in the bus, walking down the street, or just gazing at the trees. I got a few ideas in the bathroom and sometimes in the middle of the night. I would jump up and write them down before I forget.”

Do you have a solution for when you’re stuck?

“When I get stuck I just stop writing for a few weeks if necessary. I don’t try to force the creative process. I personally can only write for three days or so at a time producing three or four chapters before spacing out. Or sometimes I will pull a fierce 24 hours stretch of non-stop writing then stop. I don’t want to overload myself. It happened to me before and it’s not a nice feeling”

What does WTOWW mean to you?

“WTOWW means the world to me. @msjrichonne actively sought me out and extended an invitation to me to join the group. She was persistent and I’m having no regrets accepting. I got to meet heavy weight writers like Siancore, @foxissofoxy and @sophiasown just to name a few. I’ve never been part of a group like this and quite frankly, I’m honoured to be just in.”

Thank you Dimples for sharing some insight about you as a writer.

I just want to say Thank You. The Sweetest Thang was the very first fanfic I ever read. At the time I had never heard of fanfic before but was already a RICHONNE shipper. That story awoke something in me and now I am writing my own fanfics. THANK YOU

Thank you @dimples33. It is so awesome to see how the love and support flows throughout the Richonne fandom.  Several writers inspired me to write as well so it’s good to know that we are all paying it forward in some form or another.  I appreciate this fandom more than they will ever know.

[richonnejustdesserts]

Hi! I’m looking for a fanfic where I think Rick was a cop and got set up for a murder and Michonne wants him to take the plea deal. Rick eventually goes jail, leaving Michonne behind to take care of the kids. I think he gets out two or three years later and tries to repair his marriage with Michonne. Thank you!

Reader Appreciation Post

You ever had that one reader whos reviews you were just waiting for?

I really wanted to share a review given to me by @betterlatethannever24 because this reader without fail lifts my spirits with each review. I look forward to this reviewer every time I post a chapter to a story because the reviews are always so in depth and detailed, and you can tell that they read each word you wrote and reflected on it. So often writers (me included) complain about the lack of feedback we receive, but it is also nice to appreciate people who do give feedback, and so I encourage other writers to reblog this, and post a review that you received that you really appreciated, and tag at least five other writers to add their own. Lets spread the love for our readers/reviewers!

This was a review for my story What Carl Wanted

I’m tagging @cake-by-thepound, @sophiasown, @siancore, @dimples33, @avintagekiss24, @blacklitchick, @bigunknownkingdom, @fitholala, @fikfreak, @winterscorp, @tigerwalk3, @pennylane714, @yellehughes

[thewinterscorpion]

So many to list! What you need? AU? Canon? Completed?

Incomplete but long and awesome. You just kinda sit and light some sage that the authors update but rereading them is also entertaining and satisfying. It’s a mix of AU’s and Canon. Some classics mixed in with the fairly new.

Who do we have here...

We  would like to highlight the captivating writing of @dimples33.  She has written several fascinating stories including the one we're showcasing today.

The Walking Dead mid season finale reveal has  brought this story back to the forefront of our heart and minds. Dimples has a knack for pulling you into her carefully crafted world by giving you insight into the hearts of our favorite couple.  This story is angsty but will keep you engaged as you witness how tragedy brings our favorite couple together.

Please check this story out and her other fascinating works on ff.net

Story: Mirror

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12184334/1/

When Rick lost his son five years ago he felt like no one understood his pain but with the help of a grief counseling group he learned to cope. So when a new member falls apart during an emotional session Rick saw an image of himself from all those years ago and felt it was his duty to guide her through her pain. What he didn't expect was for her to help him too. (AU. No walkers)

This story broke our hearts a bit, but watching the relationship form between Rick and Michonne was a soothing balm. Sometimes things break but they can still grow.
