[alexiroflife]

fic authors self rec! ♡ when you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. let’s spread the self-love ♡

OOO FUN OKAY- I'll do it in order from lowest favorite (5) to top favorite (1) & explain why because i'm extra and i will yap about writing at the drop of a hat

"a bird's song" gojo x reader: literally bc i had that idea in my mind for a while and it hurt me so good to write. i have an emotional connection to this one, and i really loved writing about gojo in more depth here than i have for other fics. i think it helped build onto the angst of the story. i can't give a better explanation other than i fucking love this one

"my duty to you" toji x reader: I WAS SO EXCITED TO WRITE THIS bro omg i just love the bodyguard x royalty trope, and to fit toji into it as someone with a difficult upbringing combining worlds w/ someone so different from him was just so fun to write about. i also love the development of the relationship in this.

jjk men reactions to sh: this one is especially important to me because it healed a part of me i didn't know i needed to address. it's hard writing about things that you have experienced, but its also so freeing and heartwarming to see how connected we can all become in a space because people feel seen and safe reading. very hard to get through, but so worth it in the end

"tears" sukuna x reader: this one was hard, bc i love my sukuna fics bad, but i think i like this one sm because of how i got to explore sukuna's behavior for it. the way he is still harsh, but tries to manuever himself around it and doesn't know how to handle your tears UGH kills me, and in general i really like writing for sukuna. i think its a fun challenge when it comes to him romantically

"five more minutes" choso x reader: dude, idk what it is (maybe because the college au has a grip on me bc im in college), but i just really like the character of choso i wrote in a modern setting. i also loved writing the awkward tension between him and the ready stemmed by mutual attraction. it's short and simple but i think it's sweet :)

thank you for passing this on!! :)

warm like the sun

day 6 — temperature play w/ jooyeon ⌞⌗ kinktober ⌝

𓂃⠀𓈒 boxer!jooyeon x fem!reader

genre: smut — mdni! wc: 1.7k

contains: established relationship, soft dom!reader, sub!jooyeon, oil massage (m!rec), sensation play, temperature play, handjob, pet names, dirty talk

[ kinktober masterlist | general masterlist ]

Jooyeon breathes in, deeply and slowly, as he gets more and more enveloped in the soothing scent. The rich herbal aroma wraps his body like a comfy blanket, but also relaxes his mind as you focus your touch on his upper back.

He’s laying down on his stomach, face pressed against the mattress while your gentle hands glide over his broad shoulders and squeeze with a nice grip that has him hum delightfully from time to time. His sore muscles feel not so irritating as they did before while he was at the boxing gym.

You strictly follow all of the instructions you read on the internet - you massage the hot oil into the skin using circular strokes to reduce tension, and you work the neck, shoulders and upper back first before moving onto larger parts such as arms, legs and lower back. Judging by his blissful state, you're doing something right.

“You did so well today.” You lean a bit as you straddle Jooyeon's hips, letting your hands slide down his back before going up again. At this point, they’re almost burning from the natural oil as you keep rubbing it into his soft skin. “Feeling a bit better now?”

He almost didn’t hear your mellow voice since he’s so close to falling asleep.

“Yeah, thanks, baby.” He murmurs. Keeping his eyes shut, he focuses on your body movements on top of him, and the temperature that’s only rising higher. “I’ve recorded some of it so we’ll see how I feel about it after I watch it.”

“Don’t be so hard on yourself.” You say as you keep your voice low before grabbing the bottle next to you. You spill some oil in your palm and resume to free him from all pressure. “You’re improving every day, enjoy the process.”

Jooyeon’s face frowns for a second when you press against one spot at his left shoulder, but quickly forms a lazy smile once he hears your words.

“Wise princess.” He comments slowly. “Baby, this is so hot.”

Your hands slow down the pace until they stop completely on his waist before you move to kneel on the mattress.

“The oil…” He adds, still sounding half-asleep. “It’s too hot.”

“That’s the point, Joo.” You explain with a cheeky smile, amused at your own assumptions. “You can turn around now.” You playfully pat his butt and watch him struggle to flip on his back.

The towel underneath him messes up and the sheets are now getting stained from the oil as he gets comfortable, but you decide to ignore that. You lay eyes on him as he rests one hand on his forehead after running it through his chestnut colored hair. It’s a mess, but it only makes him even more enjoyable to stare at. His knuckles are still a bit bruised with reddish hues you’ve already kissed multiple times.

“Is this supposed to burn?” He asks slightly opening his eyes with comedic suspicion.

“Just a little,” you reply after straddling his lap again. The material of his sports shorts creates muffled sounds beneath you as you adjust. “But you’re mostly just being dramatic.”

“No, I kinda like it actually.” He smirks, but just a second later his lips part in a gasp that doesn’t come out as your palms slowly start to travel up his chest. They slowly close together when you reach for his neck. “Mmm..”

Your touch roams around, wet and hot; so warm that he’s convinced there’s no place in his body that isn’t burning up right now. He stays with eyes shut, enjoying the unfamiliar sensation, the powerful earthy scent that makes his brain fuzzy.

Your fingertips brush over his nipples and you finally see a reaction from him when your thumbs tease them with one or two circling motions.

“Miss,” he speaks out, centring his head so he can look at you, “is this a part of the procedure?”

You grin at the playful spark in his eye. His cheeks have earned a cute pink blush and he looks so attractive you cannot look away.

“I do it for special clients only,” you tease back, and to make sure you’re sensing it right… you grind against the stiff bump beneath your crotch which causes his smirk to grow with zero shame. “Really, baby?”

“If you were a guy getting a massage from your hot girlfriend you’d get hard too.”

Your hands don’t stop gliding around as you tease each other. The oils are soaking into his heated skin and the effects are obvious to you, but you’re not sure if they’re obvious to Jooyeon. The comforting fragrance in the room in addition to the hot stimulation lingering on his body, spread by your two loving hands turns him on.

Excitement flutters in your tummy as you realise you just found a new interesting way to have fun with him.

He still doesn’t have a clue about it, even while looking at your sly smile.

You lean into his flushed face and press your lips against his which he separates right away to accept your tongue. Subconsciously or not, his hips shift beneath you and the friction against his semi hard on makes him groan into the kiss. The warmth in his flesh, and the warmth radiating from your fingers that wrap around his wrists to keep his hands above his head is still strong and electrifying.

Not long after, you back away and he whines quietly at the sudden separation, but once you pull down his pants he grins approvingly at what’s going through your mind.

Usually he’d say something, something dirty or teasing, but judging by the tiredness that's covering his face and making his eyes heavy, he remains silent for now. He rests his head against the pillows and lets you do whatever you want.

With a good amount of oil on your hands you explore the area around his now full erection; you make his lower abdomen glistening, you take your time caressing his inner thighs which at one moment causes him to breathe more heavily.

His senses are so tingling; extra heightened by every light scratching of your nails as you graze them up and down. The heat is radiating all around his cock, but the thrill feels like it’s shooting right through his core.

His cock twitches, and he finally gives you a look.

“Baby, come on…” His voice leaves his dry mouth with a small whiny note. “Stop teasing me, baby.”

You laugh at his desperate sigh, and after giving his pretty panting mouth one last look, you lock fingers around his length and slowly tug at it while his turn into tight fists clenching at the bedsheets.

Sound of relief slips through his soft lips as your damped hand hugs his erection. There’s still some slippery texture left on your skin making each tug effortless and so slick; so lewd sounding too. Jooyeon cannot resist the urge to moan already. The pleasure invaded his body too quickly making him rock-hard in your palm.

“Shit—“ he gasps although you’re still twirling your hand around slowly; the strokes are perfectly firm and smooth, coming through a sensual pace. He’s never felt this good before. This is some type of numbing pleasure. His voice rises despite his exhaustion, provoked by your other palm squeezing his balls gently. “Fuck—“

You let go with a chuckle, and Jooyeon’s sleepy eyes look down with disappointment. But he doesn’t complain, he drops his head back into the cushion, breathing excitedly. One of his hands gets a hold of the sheets again.

“How are you feeling? Is it too much?”

You lean down, placing a kiss under his bellybutton. He’s gotten so sensitive that even this small touch makes his tummy clench. Even your breathing so close to his skin stimulates him further.

“Like I’m going to cum.” He murmurs and his closed eyes start to squeeze harder when your nails begin to move up and down his thighs again. These super light lines that drive him crazy. “Please, please, no more of this…” He grabs one of your hands to stop it.

At the same time, his hips jerk up, thrusting into nothing. He chuckles at himself too when he hears your giggles, but solely out of desperation.

“No more of what?” You continue to edge him, but with words. “What do you want, pretty boy? Say it.”

You keep your hands still, but your eyes are constantly moving between his gaze and his parted lips.

“I want to cum, baby, soo bad,” he guides your hand to his cock, and you let him. “Please, make me cum, I really need you.” His hand presses yours against him, his hips shift upward again, but this time he really feels something, and it makes him groan despite it not being as strong as he needs. "However you want," he adds weakly and glances at your little shorts so quickly you almost missed it.

But you didn't.

The oil is starting to do its thing and Jooyeon feels how his erection warms up as you push the head of his cock against your clit. The nicely scented moisture is smeared along your folds and his length glides between them perfectly, making you feel good too.

His body is completly still, his attention stays on your fingers that are holding him pressed against your pussy. The only movement is the one of his teeth biting on his lip as your hips move sensually, pushing him closer to the edge with each following rub. That's when he's not moaning how hot you are, making you want to peek at his face where droplets of sweat are glistening on his forehead. You notice his neck is starting to sweat too.

“Fuck—“

His eyes roll back.

While pressing his head against the pillow the veins of Jooyeon's glistening neck become more evident than before. You can see them up close once you let your body fall forward in order to rub yourself against him better. The view waters your mouth as you remain focused on moving your hips.

You haven't quicken the pace at all. You don't want to and you don't need to. You both want to cum like this - slowly, with flushed bodies sticking to each other and warm like the sun; while the pure aroma in the air comforts your senses and the pleasure of each brush of your clit along Jooyeon's hard length gets you both high.

Hello hello fandom friend! I love love love your blog. Thank you for all that you do for the this part of the internet. I have a slightly subjective question: I know that there are SO many creative, wonderful, smartly written pieces. But in your opinion, what are the top 10 (or less, OR more :-)) most gorgeously written stories? Anything where the writing made you think JESUS CHRIST and absolutely blew you away. I know this will be a personal call. Feel free to use your own measures. (Most re-read, most haunted by, ones with lines you still remember 10 years on?) Thank you so much in advance!

Hey Nonny!

Oh gosh this is such a broad question because everyone has different tastes, and stuff I may think are works of art may not appeal to other people. I think the safest way for me to answer this question is to direct you to all of my Fave Fics lists... I hope that's okay! <3

hi alex! do you have any recs for songs that sound cheerful and upbeat but are about murder/violence/thrill of the hunt type stuff? kinda like the vibe of choke by idkhow?

The og version of this is more ominous this one is more upbeat) Praying mantis - FKA Rayne ( i fucking love this song <3333333333) Crazy fuckin robot body - snowblood (I mean. this one's niche cause. robot body. but hey if it works it works!) Another way out - Hollywood undead (we're hunting you down for sport sorry) Get jinxed - Djerv (Sorry for the league of legends but this one also slaps so hard and has for years) Killer - The ready set (A CLASSIC A CLASSIC THE MOST CLASSIC EVER) Kill[h]er - Stand atlantic (I think this one fits perhaps) Bruises - Fox stevenson (ANOTHER CLASSIC!!! FISTFIGHT!!) Fingernails - Don Broco (Idk if this fits but it feels like it does its a cool song and also the video is fun as fuck more bands need to do weird shit again) The blade chose me - rainbowdragoneyes (8BIT OMINOUS SONG ABT CONQUERING ITS GOOD!!)

EDIT: I FORGOT TO ADD THE BLADE CHOSE ME

And yeah as always if anyone has suggestions feel free to reblog/reply with them -w-

[seaweedbraens]

hi hi!! sorry to bother you but i have been trying so hard to find a fic and was wondering if you’d know it? it was a percy/annabeth breakup fic, and i remember it starting with him buying her a coffee and then taking her to central park before breaking up w her, and then it goes on to them finding their way back to each other i think? it had fall themes? idr too many specifics bc it’s been forever but i’m heartbroken to have lost it so thought it was worth a shot to ask <3

its KILLING ME i know what fic youre talking about i feel like i've read it but i JUST CANT REMEMBER WHO WROTE IT AAAAAAAAAARGH

the only fic that comes close that i remember when the sun came up (you were looking at me) by TheWritingManiac, which i remember reading AAAAAAAGES ago and it's beautiful but so, so painful. it's definitely not the fic you're looking for, but hey! another painful rec for you!

i know my readers are far more versed in pjo fic than i am, so if anyone knows about the fic anon is looking for, feel free to hit me up or reply in the comments!!

[rebelrebelwrites]

Fic authors self-rec! ✨ When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you’ve written, then pass on to at least five other writers ❤️

Thanks for the tags @bad-surprise and @wyrd-syster

Mine are all from other fandoms, but just in case any Reylos still follow me or your sexual awakening was also Jareth the Goblin King 😂, I'll share my 5 favorite fics that I’ve written w/ all the old shit I made for them:

1. when the moon met the sun in the sky [reylo fantasy au | E | 71k | 20/20] — To date my proudest work, just because it was fun to try and attempt to evoke a Miyazaki-style fantasy world, and the world-building was so much fun.

"Who?" Rey asked.

She knew who. But she didn't know what else to say.

The man called Kylo Ren — Ben, her mind whispered — rolled his shoulders, a tick she'd seen before, a thousand times at least; an echo of a boy she used to know.

He seemed to notice. He took a tentative step toward her. When she flinched in response, he froze.

"Don't do that," he said, soft as a psalm. His dark eyes darted over every inch of her.

"Do what?" she asked.

"Lie."

2. Boon [reylogan heist au | E | 39k | 12/20] — This is such a niche fic in the first place because it’s a crossover between SW and Logan Lucky, but man, it was so fun and Rey/Clyde are so soft. I’d never attempted to write a heist and I obviously didn’t finish but I still have a fondness for this (permanently? IDK) on hiatus little fic.

“Your jar looks like it’s full of stars,” Sadie said, gaping at it.

“It does,” Clyde agreed. He raised his own. “Time to set them free?”

Sadie nodded, skipping into the night to release hers. As Rey turned to follow, Clyde snaked his good hand around her wrist.

“Follow me.”

He led her around the house, where the night felt denser, darker, somehow warmer. Underfoot, wild daisies swayed in the dying summer breeze.

“Here,” he murmured. She smiled at him, then twisted the top of her jar off. He followed suit. Together, they shook the little bugs free — to fly away, blinking little lights in the darkness; hazy yellow stars they might touch.

3. Crown Glass [reylo fantasy au | M | 4k | 1/1] — I love this one because it just sort of came into being; a prompt/gift one-shot that took on a mind of its own, but I got to play more with present tense and some high-fantasy elements bouncing around in my brain.

She shouldn’t be able to find it. But she does.

It stands tall, tucked away in the back of the cellar; she weaves through abandoned armor, crusted cauldrons, and shelves and shelves of spellbooks to reach it. It’s old, ancient even; she can feel that, even if she’d never set eyes on it, full-length and ringed in circles of crown glass that shimmer in the gloom.

She reaches out a hand, skimming the surface–

And then a world appears on the other side.

A room, awash in milky moonlight. A desk, buried by books. A bed…

And a man.

She draws her hand back, heart thumping as loud as the magic in her ears.

The world flickers and fades back into blackness.

4. This is the Sign You've Been Looking For [reylo modern au | E | 29k | 10/10] — My first real Reylo fic and what got me back into writing after years away, so I have to give it credit! Also my first ever AU, and Virgin artist Ben Solo and sign maker Rey were so sweet and sad but with a nice HEA.

"I'm sorry," Rey murmured, drawing close. She could only seem to look at her feet.

He pressed a large palm to her face, tilting her head up to look at him. The music filtering in from the living room was noticeably softer; vaguely, Rey recognized Elton's "Your Song" playing in the background and decided it was a good idea to rest her hands on Ben's hips.

He glanced down at her touch, swallowing hard.

"Don't be," he hummed.

5. Muse [Labyrinth canonverse fic | E | 82k | 20/20] — I have a lot of Feelings about this fic, but I have to include it even though a part of me wants to edit it into oblivion, haha. I feel like I’ve come so far as a writer since finishing this in my early twenties, but I’ll always appreciate this for how it helped me improve, for how it gave me an avenue to do more with fantasy world-building, and for the nice response it got in a small little fandom.

"Why did you give me the peach?"

He stared at her, his expression unfathomable.

"Are you going to answer me?" asked Sarah quietly.

"You know why I gave it to you," replied Jareth, "To make you forget."

"No," continued Sarah, "I know. That wasn't what I meant. Why did you give me the peach, knowing that I would never be able to leave after taking a bite?"

hii a longg while back I had sent a long ask about how much I enjoyed the answer and had asked about what other cults/writing/media had inspired you when developing the storyline and its characters. In your response you had recommended a list of books that you enjoy/inspire you and I just wanted to share that I bought two of the books you recommended:) The Secret History by Donna Tartt and The Long Walk by Stephen King. It was so exciting and I thought of you as soon as I saw them at Barnes and Noble lol. It meant so much that you replied and recommended some great books because I really do enjoy your work and reading about how you come up with stuff when you write. This is so silly but I got so excited and wanted to tell you haha. You inspired me to start my book collection!! If you have any more recommendations please feel free to share if you would like🫶 I hope you have a great weekend!

OMG!!!!!!! im literally honored seriously this is so awesome !!! i really hope you enjoy the books and pls lmk what you think after you read them :] im actually touched for real thinking about you thinking about me hehehe <33 putting a read more before more recs !!! hehe

im gonna be so real with you i REMEMBER answering your ask and i remember giving some recs but i have scoured my blog (as well as i can w tumblrs shitty search mechanism) and i cannot find it to save my LIFEEEE so ill give some more recommendations but pls forgive me if i repeat a couple bc i cannot remember ... what i said ... LOLLL

so in no particular order here are some more books !! hehe

a canticle for liebowitz by walter miller jr (this book is from 1959 but its actually so funny and the vibes are immaculate)

the langoliers by stephen king (technically a novella but tell me why i have an urge to write an au like this LMAO)

giovanni's room by james baldwin (not like other books i recommend but very good)

chaos by tom o'neill (if you feel like learning about charles manson and the corruptness of the us government)

people who eat darkness by richard parry (if you feel like learning about a japanese serial rapist)

(this one is controversial but. we're adults.) a mother's reckoning by sue klebold (if you feel like learning about the columbine school shooting from one of the shooters' mothers' perspectives)

i probably recommended this BUT if you find yourself really liking stephen king (or even moderately liking him lol) i would. H I G H L Y highly recommend the dark tower series. it is amazing and incredible and i loved every second i spent reading it.

im gonna be so honest rn. i read the entire acotar series. do i think they're good books. no. but did i enjoy reading them and laughing at sarah j maas's writing style. yes. so [shrug].

and to finish i am currently reading dune (like everyone else) and its quite good along with a clash of kings which is. game of thrones. so. hard to read but fun.

but yeah !!!! thank you so much for thinking of me and taking my recommendations hehe it really means a lot !! like i said pls lmk what you think of the two that you got bc those are truly some of my favorite books ever :] <3

[mcnuggyy]

idk if you saw, but that post about cohost allowing cub/ect art is false and misleading. there is a different section in their rules that states non photo realistic depictions are not okay. i would rec looking through the notes and replies for more info.

ah!! Thank you will do!! Tbh it’s something I should have looked into more only because I know how much of the staff is queer and trans themselves and people love calling trans women sex pests and all sorts of transmisogynistic shit so I wouldn’t be surprised tbh… also I see the same sort of gross pedo shit on here and twitter all the time against my will so like!!! Idk I think I rather take my chances with a smaller social media run by queer people than ones by huge dickhead ceos but yeah </3 def will check that out thank you!

(If it looks like I am flip flopping a lot to the viewers it is because I am learning info as i see it if anyone else has info about this please feel free to share it w me cause I don’t want to be spreading misinformation around 🥲)

[miodiodavinci]

I see you're a video essay enjoyer 👀

Any video essays you particularly like or video essayists that captivate you ? I am also a video essay enjoyer and I'm looking for recs !

unfortunately i am a very recent addition to the category of video essay enjoyer (as in i've only started seeking them out on my own instead of watching my partner's finely curated library in the past year or two, and even then it's sporadic depending on my work schedule) so i don't have much to recommend yet OTL (i mean besides hbomberguy who i love and cherish so so much but we all know him)

i do have a few documentary and deep dive channels that i regularly check back on like defunctland and izzzyzzz, but my partner's more the one to actually regularly keep up with folks w

if anyone wants to drop their favorites in the replies, feel free to ! ! ! !

Now bros acting all non-chalant no wonder we were all thrown off at first thinking that Karasu was the glazer…and LMAOAOA ME TOO honestly I know some people like to take the line and run with it for ships and headcanons but I think it’s just so funny like it’s such an in character pulled out of my ass compliment (if even LMAO) like bro just said lemme be a little unique

It’s free to download!! Ofc there’s in game purchases for more gacha currency (man, gambling.) but free to play and they give out free gacha pulls pretty often! The karasu figure actually kills me I remember the first time I saw it I was like WHAT DID THEY DO TO YOU??? He’s got the angry bird eyes fr it’s hilarious…I will note that the global server has a lot less characters than the Japanese one iirc but from what I’ve seen online they’re following the same character release pattern as the Japanese one for the most part so it’s just a matter of time…I’ll def lyk if I find more funny lines though LMAO

-Karasu anon

no because real talk i would love smth anri focused…how does she know about ego?? apparently she used to play soccer and as we know the japanese women’s team is actually really fucking good so did she get her ideas from there?? or is she just a little weird because what normal person comes up w the idea for bllk 😭 so many avenues her character could take and yet i doubt we’ll ever see any of it

they’re so unsocialized and social media/tik tok only makes it worse…like trust middle schoolers have always been brutal but nowadays they’re HORRIBLE!! and at least in the us a lot of them missed out on peak socialization during the covid lockdown which only exacerbates the problem

FWTKAC IS EVERYWHERE BRUH i was scrolling through my for you page on tumblr earlier and i saw a post from someone i don’t follow talking about how they had started simping for otoya because of a karasu x reader where he was acting silly…i was like omg this is so me w fwtkac otoya 👆🏻 TELL ME WHY I CHECKED THE REPLIES FOR THE REC AND THEY WERE LITERALLY TALKING ABT FWTKAC??? i felt so perceived in that moment HAHAH like wdym other people besides us know abt that fic 😭 and now every social media post ever is a fwtkac ref it’s crazy i need to make a compilation or smth

I’M SAYING hiori is being all cool and mysterious as if he did not follow this man home because of how amazing he thought he was 😓 i agree to me it just feels like karasu is messing around w hiori!! i can see why you’d ship it but honestly karasu is such a general jackass that it’s just as in character for him to be fucking w hiori for no other reason than because he finds it hilarious

i’ve actually never played a gacha game so idk what that is 😭 but i’ve heard of them a couple of my mutuals play some i think!! omg if it’s free to download i might just have to do it at some point…hopefully the rest of the characters pull up in the english version because i do not know any japanese i fear but also i need to see tabieita and hiori 🥹

i commented on a book rec tiktok and the op was like oh i'm getting into sports romances so i commented oh you should read aftg! and someone replied saying basically like it's irresponsible for me to be reccing that series without mentioning the triggers in it and is it just me or does literally any other book or piece of media get talked about like that?? i feel like people have a scewed idea about how triggering aftg is like i feel like i have read many many books (including literal classics) that are just as triggering if not more than aftg is???

also girl. google is fucking free and the person who's tiktok i recced it to is 23 years old i think she can look the series up if she's interested in it and see all the goodreads comments because apparently thats all anyone fucking talks about w this series anyways

like i feel like i'm going crazy but i really don't think aftg is nearly as wild as people make it out to be

[inevitably-johnlocked]

so are you on hiatus or still posting or...? what's the deal w/that

Hey Anon...

I'm not sure if you're just joshing me or being silly, or are being serious or whatever but your ask comes off as rude, especially since I try to have a post every half hour or so from 8 AM EST until noon DAILY (since I discovered those are my peak hours), unless I have no content, which y'all provide me with through asks and suggestions. I have posted fic recs EVERY Friday for over 3 years and curate a fic rec list nearly every Sunday unless I take a break / holiday. My blog tags are specifically designed to show me where in the cycle a post is, and, a lot of the "selling" point to this blog is its interactivity (where I check the replies and additions on every post that reblogs each day and I tack it onto the main post).

Granted, I don't post nearly as much as I used to (because it was affecting my mental health, and I have a day job I work between 40 and 60 hours a week with very little free time, and I'm back at the office so I can't post during work hours anymore) so I had to cut my queue back to auto-post 3 posts a day so I don't run out of posts before month's end. I also prep my blog the night before the next day, so I spend anywhere between 2 and 4 hours NIGHTLY, AFTER my day job, to file, answer asks, and schedule posts so that my blog LOOKS active.

AND if no one sends me asks or asks I'm not ready to answer (bad headspace, too long to reply so I save it for another day, etc), then the queue the next day is, admittedly, smaller and instead is about 1 post an hour up until 3 PM EST. All my new posts from asks get answered and posted between 8 AM and 11 AM, unless I have no content / next-day-reblogs, then I slot other asks into the 11 AM until 2 PM slots. I try not to do that on first posting, though, 'cause as I said, my peak hours are early morning so I'd rather have people see those ones first.

When I'm on hiatus, I pin a post to my blog. My Lovelies and Lurkers™ know when I am on Hiatus and are very understanding and know that I am a human being who needs a break once in awhile. I'm sorry I'm not posting up to your standards, Anon, I truly am, but I just physically can't anymore, since like, 90% of my free time is dedicated to either sorting fics or answering asks. And I don't really have the energy to do it at the rate I was doing it when I was working from home. I rarely take a break from this blog as it is.

Perhaps Tumblr has unfollowed you from my blog, which is why you don't see my posts anymore (it has happened, I've had to re-follow people before), but I can assure you, I have new content DAILY unless I have no asks I'm ready to answer. Some days are less than others, because, again, I am only human, and I have no obligation to provide content daily. I do it because I LOVE doing it. But asks like this make me feel like all my work is for naught. *shrugs*

Less is more, Anon. 💜🖤

1. We saw original Maria in our neighborhood the other day and we were like what the heck! So I texted her and she replied back a day later saying she has a job in the neighborhood. Feels kind of strange but I truly hope that’s true!

2. All the options for Nayas birthday are dwindling lol. Playpie isn’t open until 2. Glenoaks Rec room isn’t free thst day. I cannot for the life of me figure out what rec rooms are available at parks in Los Angeles. So I think tomorrow we’re gonna check out a place hatty suggested. I tried to put together a guest list and it was like 30 adults and 25 kids. Sheesh

3. I’m really enjoying writing lately. It’s obviously terrible and hard still but I think I’m just luxuriating it in a little bit more. Because I’m near the end (but also so far from it). I’m nearing the end of this draft is how I’ll put it. Crazy.

4. I’ve told so many coworkers abt the fact that I’m trying to write so they check in to ask abt it now and again. Same thing w Jason’s mom she always calls me 자가님. But today I was like man… this really has to be somewhat decent otherwise all these people I know and work with are going to read it and they may come away from it being like what the eff did I waste my time for. Lol. Like it’s embarrassing if it’s not up to at least a certain standard. Doesn’t have to be groundbreaking but it can’t be cringe, which it very well could be.
