Welcome to Letters2fiction!

The concept here is to send in a question or a letter request, and you’ll get a response from your fictional character of choice, from the list below. Please stick to the list I’ve made, but of course, you can ask if there’s some other characters I write for, I don’t always remember all the shows, movies or books I’ve consumed over the years and I’m sure I’m missing a lot 😅

This is the masterlist for a writing challenge dedicated to the "Yearbook" project created by Sleeping at Last.

Each story will go with one month. Each month has a dedicated EP with three songs. Each song will get its own part of the story.

So, to put it simply, each story will have three parts.

I hope you enjoy this writing challenge.

Reading This Week 2024 #39

I have the growing impression this week that I can't quite call myself a homebody anymore. I called myself one to my roommate today and she disagreed, which I suppose can be chalked up to my increasing social business. I keep getting involved in things that have me getting out of the house to attend them, or having friends invite me to events that they want to go to. It feels good!

Finished:

Most Ardently by Gabe Cole Novoa, audiobook narrated by Harrison Knights I said a lot about this in last week's update but as a note: there is a full page in my reading journal taken up by my thoughts on this book. A few notes I will make here: 1. It switches the setting of the pride&prejudice story from the English countryside to London itself in a way I found quite jarring. 2. I feel like the entail/primogeniture stuff with a trans boy Bennet should have come up way earlier in the book than it did (at the end. as a solution to everyone's problems because well its turns out the second oldest bennet child is a man! english property law is inexplicably trans-affirming!), like I would have loved to see Oliver frustrated and indignant that because everyone thinks he's a woman he won't rightfully inherit his family's property throughout the book! i find anxieties about financial stability and future prosperity really key to Austen works, so that would have made the inspiration feel more grounded than it did. personally I am less interested in Most Ardently's very modern version of queer & trans-ness, since I tend to come to historical fiction with an interest in engaging the ways that gender feelings might have been embodied and articulated prior to our present language of trans-ness. Nonetheless! I'm sure many teenage gay trans boys will find this book and feel seen. The loving and detailed descriptions of Regency men's fashion was absolutely a highlight of this book for me.

Love Me Like You're Real by Cynthia Yuan Cheng this is the comic I linked in a little post gushing about it this week. it's advertised as a BL comic (though produced in English from the start) about a transmasc hopeless romantic falling into the post-canon of their favorite fantasy novel and directly into the arms of their fictional crush. it's a really lovely story about growing out of passive longing and yearning and into an active pursuit of romance and love as Terr takes lessons from their fictional romance forward into their day-to-day

The Wicked + The Divine, Vol. 3: Commercial Suicide written by Kieron Gillen, art by Kate Brown (#12), Tula Lotay (#13), Jamie McKelvie (#14), Stephanie Hans (#15), Leila Del Duca (#16), & Brandon Graham (#17)

The Wicked + The Divine, Vol. 4: Rising Action written by Kieron Gillen, art by Jamie McKelvie I have come out of these volumes a bit confounded by the motivations and choices made by the main antagonist. she really seems to just be making a bunch of problems for herself that don't need to be problems. and secondly i don't like the twist that we didn't see a whole chunk of events that took place at the end of volume 2. that felt like a cheap reveal, and i liked what i had imagined was the case better

Fantasy Island: Colonialism, Exploitation, and the Betrayal of Puerto Rico by Ed Morales, audiobook narrated by Sean Duffy part of my ongoing efforts to learn about the history and colonial present of Puerto Rico (where half of my family is from). reading this led to some emotional rambling in a friend's DMs about the really shitty bind PR is in currently

The Apothecary Diaries, Vol. 1 original story by Natsu Hyuuga, character design by Touco Shino, manga by Nekokurage ohoho? spunky smart girl protagonist and a beautiful eunuch as well? sign me the fuck up I love the court intrigue vignettes

Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White, narrated by Shaan Dasani, Graham Halstead, and Avi Roque I read this for october's queer lit book club (YA post-apocalypse horror). I would have absolutely loved to read this book in high school at the peak of my violent fantasies of sprouting wings in painful bloody glory. however it was published in 2022 so i cannot do that, and the book was okay to read as an adult a bit removed from those feelings. excited to hear that Lilly Wachowski is working on a movie for it!

"Take His Memory to Your Grave" by Shelley Parker-Chan this is a short smut story that Parker-Chan released initially as a preorder reward for He Who Drowned the World but is now available on their website. it's toxic hate sex between Lord Wang and Ouyang prior to their appearances in She Who Became the Sun, and it is so funny in a way that only these two tragic idiot assholes could be. a friend said that my description of this was the best pitch i've made for the series yet

Ongoing:

Magic's Pawn by Mercedes Lackey, narrated by Gregory St. John I am reading this to keep up with Shelved by Genre and really loving it. I might have to check out some of Mercedes Lackey's other work after they finish with this trilogy

Rethinking Rape by Ann J. Cahill

Lady Eve's Last Con by Rebecca Fraimow picked up a copy at the library this week. only read the first chapter. got a lot else on my plate but i will Try because i've heard good things

Frieren, Beyond Journey’s End, Vol. 2 by Kanehito Yamada

DNFs:

The Shabti by Megaera C. Lorenz, narrated by Matt Haynes i picked this up based on a good review from KJC comparing it to Jordan L Hawk's work. I should have remembered that I don't like Hawk's books all that much. There was nothing egregious that made me drop it, but I realized 75% through that I actually didn't care about any of it. sorry, i just wasn't interested in either the shitty ex-boyfriend plot nor the angry ghost plot, and i wasn't terribly hooked on the romance. not really worth the time i gave it

Lord of Eternal Night by Ben Alderson, narrated by Shaun Grindell this was on my TBR from my time searching a year and a half ago for gay vampire romances. i found the audiobook narrator so grating and I didn't find the dynamic between the vampire and the witch sent to kill him sexy enough to push through. 25% into the book and they've barely interacted? come on...
