Archiving my artistic influences thread from twitter, continued. I liked this exercise, for all the usual narcissistic reasons, but also bc by juxtaposing all these artists that have affected me, I see where they connect to each other as well as myself. - Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 -

Last of the Second Generation
Next born into the camp was Lynn, daughter of Dinah and Theron. (I really need to take birthday pictures after I update their outfits instead of before . . .)
Then Lewis, son of Rosalyn and Fernando.
Lewis had an ongoing grudge with Wesley for some reason. (I have a lot of pictures of them fighting.)
After Lewis was Cecelia, daughter of Misha and Fernando. She was orphaned as a newborn when Magda’s ghost killed both of her parents the same night she was born, but since everyone in the colony always chipped in to raise each other’s children, her care was not lacking.
Next was Elias, first son of Heidi and Anthony. He may have been born in the Amazon camp before Heidi moved in to marry Anthony.
The relationship between these four was a little complicated. It seemed straightforward at first. Lynn and Lewis could pair up
and Cecilia and Elias could be a couple.
But Lynn and Cecilia really wanted to be together despite me trying to push them towards the guys in the interest of having children.
In the end, they both had their children (two for Lynn and Lewis and three for Cecelia and Elias) and they ended up married to each other, so it all worked out for the best.
Lewis had no problems finding other lovers
even into his old age. They were just visiting flings though.
He also had a child with Lois, Anthony and Heidi’s second child (who was technically second generation, but was the same age as the first sims in the third generation). I thought Lois and Lewis could be a couple, but unfortunately she died young.
Elias was also a victim of an early death when he was unable to survive a combination of heatstroke and being scared by a ghost, which his baby sister Gretchen had to witness.
Elias: Am I dead? I think I died.
(Are you actually dead if you can think though?)
Heidi and Anthony did not have much luck with their children. Fortunately, their third and youngest, Gretchen, is still alive and well so far.
Anthony had already passed away from old age before his children died prematurely.
Heidi was quite a bit younger that Anthony, so her elder years were just starting as her husband’s were ending. With a lot of life ahead of her, Heidi ended up marrying Blake from my Beta family off-screen and went to live out the rest of her years with him.
The last sim born in the second generation (not counting Heidi and Anthony’s youngest) was Fernando Jr. to Rosalyn and Fernando. All of the other sims in this neighborhood I named using a random name generator, except for Fernando Jr. Since he was born after his father died, I named him after his late father.
Fernando Jr. did not take after his father in the romance department. He started a relationship with Isaac’s widow, Shari, and has remained faithful to her. Shari is a bit older than Fernando Jr., but they had time to have two daughters together before she became an elder.

Getting to know you meme tagged by @andallthatmerrymishigas
Favorite time of year: for the temps and the aesthetics, it’s the 4th quarter. Fall. But I work in a retail adjacent field and this time of year is like a suckerpunch to the face every week so it’s also the time of year I dread the most. Emotionally, spring is getting to be my favorite time of year because spring break means a 10 day vacation.
Comfort foods: Shari’s chocolate chip cookies (made with see’s baking chocolates), homemade fried tacos, mashed potatoes, my moms chicken enchiladas, in n out, the pollo asada tacos from Casa Del Rey.
Do you collect anything? Dogs, apparently. Fandoms. Briard stuff. Moving a couple years ago forced me to really whittle down my collections so now I have a few prizes pieces. My life magazines signed by ginger Rogers. My picture with Isabella Rossellini. Shari’s Moolly. The travel scrapbooks I’ve made. Photos. Recipes. Quilts made by Shari’s mom. An afghan made by my grandma. A painting of me by my nana.
Favorite drinks: Coke Zero, iced tea, pepsi, frozen margaritas, mimosas.
Favorite music artists: the other day I had a playlist going at work from my iTunes and it was… eclectic is a mild word. I mean you’ve got your typical divas. Reba, Dolly, Cher. An outrageous number of musicals are represented: wicked, Hamilton, frozen, beauty and the beast, the Addams family, hairspray, Sweeney Todd, Les Mis, Cabaret. And then the rest is the most insane amalgamation of music mostly culled from movie and television soundtracks that are inexorably tied to that media in my mind forever. And postmodern jukebox.
Current favorite songs: oh good grief. Nothing But Diamonds by ATO. Now by the carpenters (shut up). The Sound of Silence (disturbed). Truth Hurts (lizzo). Black Sheep (gin wigmore). Once upon a dream (Lana del rey). March March (the chicks). Chandelier (puddles pity party).
Favorite fics: well obviously Harts All A Flutter by @andallthatmerrymishigas which is single-handedly keeping me going through this grueling holiday season. But also her Downton stuff. And Blake stuff. I’m a fangirl sue me. And then…do you know how much fanfic I’ve read?? Alias, XF, MFMM, tdbm. I have even started scanning svu/OC stuff.
Favorite video games: bubble bobble (NES), Soulblazer (SNES), Mario bros 3 (NES), Skee-ball plus (iOS), Bioshock Infinite (PlayStation 3), Mario kart (wii).
Tagging: I dunno. The Hart crew. @blossom--of--snow @tyree-toes @holy-ships-x-red-lips who am I missing.

50 Questions Tag
Hey there, so I thought I can’t ignore this forever, and so I’m going to do the rest of the things I was tagged for. First, the 50 questions tag, for which I was tagged by @thesimperiuscurse quite some time ago. I decided to do this for Shari since we haven’t seen her in a while, plus she’s rather... uh... complex, so it might be interesting.
How old is your Sim? As of the latest, 19th, chapter, she is 34.
When is your Sim’s birthday? July 4th.
What is your Sim’s zodiac sign? Ironically, both she and Ron are cancers. *coughs suggestively*
What is your Sim’s ethnicity? American, though I do not talk much about it in the story.
Does your sim have any nicknames? Shari. Tiny Shari sometimes (I think @thesimperiuscurse once used it in reference to her, I liked it, and it kind of stuck).
Do they have a job? Technically, she’s a cartoonist, and has even released a couple books with her drawings. But no, she doesn’t have a “real” job, in terms of having set work hours, being forced to get up in the morning, etc.
Where does your Sim live? She currently lives in Appaloosa Plains.
Who does your Sim live with? She lives with her husband, John, and their three children, oldest James and twins – Jasmine and Justin.
What environment did your sims grow up in? She grew up in a loving environment. Although her mom, Candy, was technically a single mother, Shari was surrounded by many other adults she treated like family – “uncles” Reggie, Frank and Waylon, and “aunt” Hailey. And of course, she grew up with Ron and Becca (her peers), and two years older Clint. But throughout the years, she’d grown more and more jealous of the fact that everyone had a father except her. She deeply believed in importance of a traditional family dynamic, even to the point of feeling sorry for Clint for growing up without a mother.
What is your Sim’s favorite food? She loves sweets, and especially chocolate. She can eat a whole bar (or a couple of them) by herself when she’s stressed, which is often.
What is your Sim’s favorite drink? Shari loves tea. She often prepares herself the melissa one because she’s trying to convince herself it will calm her down during anxiety attacks (which it really doesn’t).
If they have one, what is your Sim’s favorite color? She doesn’t really have a favorite, though she started wearing a lot of red because of Ron (and the fact he connects red to her due to his synesthesia), and has gotten so used to it, she still unconsciously buys a lot of red clothes.
Does your Sim believe in any clichés (love at first sight)? She doesn’t necessarily believe in love at first sight, but she does believe in destiny, and that everyone’s fate is known before they are born.
What is your Sim’s sexuality? Straight.
What is your Sim’s gender identity? Female.
Is your Sim type A or type B? It’s hard to tell because she’s quantities connected with both – gets stressed easily, is impulsive, over-emotional, but definitely not a high-achiever.
Is your Sim introverted or extroverted? Introverted.
What is your Sim’s favourite woohoo position? In a way, she treats sex like a way to feel less alone, so she would pick anything that lets her feel it on a spiritual level. She particularly enjoys face to face positions with a lot of tight hugging, like the basket pose. But she doesn’t usually voice her preference and lets the partner decide because she’s desperate for just about any physical contact.
Is your Sim a pet person? She adores pets of all kinds, and can’t pick a favorite. She had always wanted a dog as a child, and was excited when her husband brought a rescued puppy home. Now, as she lives in the country, she feeds a lot of stray cats, dogs, and has also learned horse-riding.
Does your Sim have a best friend? She used to be very close to Becca when she was still alive. Now that she’s mostly distanced herself from all her past acquaintances, she doesn’t really have friends anymore.
What is/ was your Sim’s favorite school subject? Art.
Is/ was your sim a high, mid or low achiever in school? She was a low achiever because she was always too focused on her drawings to pay attention during classes.
Are they planning to go or have they already been to college? She studied fine arts for a short period of time, but then dropped out.
What are your Sim’s political beliefs (if they have them)? Shari is an ignorant when it comes to politics, and not once has she even considered voting, nor is she interested in what’s going on in the world.
What is one thing your Sim wants to do before they die? She wants to come clean to her husband, and admit she’s cheated on him multiple times with many other men.
Does your Sim have a favourite TV show (cable) and/ or movie? She doesn’t really watch TV.
Is your Sim a Netflix viewer? She doesn’t watch any series either. She once tried, but came to a conclusion that people there either seem too happy, or, in the dramatic ones, so sad she gets more depressed than she normally is.
Does your Sim like books? Not traditional books, but she loves comics, and likes to do fanart sometimes.
Does your Sim enjoy video games, if so, what is their favorite one, and do they play on PC or console? She used to play on console with Ron, Becca and Clint as a teenager, but she doesn’t do that anymore.
What is your Sim’s personal style? She wears girly clothes in bright colors. When she was younger, she sometimes liked experimenting with more risqué clothing and make up, but has grown out of it. She also loves flower themes, and midi skirts.
Does your Sim have a lucky charm? That would be the bracelet given to her by Ron on their anniversary. More about it in this post.
Is your Sim religious? Not really, but she believes that there exists something out there that’s going to eventually punish her for all the wrong she’s done, like cheating, which she feels extremely guilty about, but has no plans of stopping.
What kind of music does your Sim listen to and who is their favorite artist? She doesn’t listen to music with lyrics, only relaxation music to calm herself down during anxiety attacks. She loves when there are birds or sea sounds included.
Is your Sim a festive person? If so, what’s their favorite holiday? She doesn’t care much for holidays. Usually, her anxiety increases during Christmas when she has to leave the house and shop in a crowd.
What is your Sim’s favorite type of weather? She loves when the sun’s shining. It makes her a bit happier.
Does your Sim prefer to start fights or finish them? She avoids conflict at all cost. So, most likely, she will burst out crying and apologize even if she’s not actually guilty. Thankfully, she and John don’t argue often because he’s very peaceful by nature.
Does your Sim have a dream job? She doesn’t really know what she wants out of life. There was a time when she wanted to be a praised artist but now she feels nauseous at the prospect of being overwhelmingly famous.
Does your Sim have any siblings? She’s an only child, though she used to think of Becca as her sister.
Does your Sim get along with their family? She used to be very close to her mother, and all her extended family (not related to her by blood, but she thought of them as such), but now she’s distanced herself from them, so she isn’t anymore.
What is your Sim’s favourite hobby? Drawing.
What does your Sim look for in a romantic partner? She has never had a healthy relationship. Her marriage with John was a way of escaping from unfinished business with Ron, and she wanted someone who’d provide for her. All she’s done after that have been hook-ups with no emotional attachment.
What is a secret about your Sim? She has a calendar in which she notes down the dates and names of all the people she’s cheated on John with.
What is a wish your Sim has? She wants to die, but is too afraid to commit a suicide in fear she’ll get punished in the afterlife.
What is a flaw your Sim has? Her fear of rejection, which prevents her from building up a proper relationship with anyone.
How do others generally perceive your Sim? As shy, insecure, reserved and vulnerable.
Does your Sim have a greatest achievement? If so, what is it? She’s become quite well-known on the internet because of her comics. She was even invited to take part in a meet and greet to talk with her fans and sign her comics, but she didn’t go due to her anxiety.
If they have one, what is your Sim’s greatest regret? She deeply regrets breaking up with Ron, even though she continuously tries to convince herself it was a good decision.
Does your sim have a favorite emoji? ♥ – a heart, which she not only uses in her conversations with John and her children, but also the men she hooks up with. She often prefers it over actual words because she tends to overanalyzes her text to the point she doesn’t know what to say anymore, and then panics that the person on the other side will get mad for her at leaving them hanging.
Does your Sim use Simstagram? If so what’s their @? She shares her comics on @sharistinydoodles (it’s not an actual username, don’t check, lol).
What is the last text your Sim sent (and who did they text)? “♥” in response to John’s message that he’ll be home in half an hour.
#shari's so messed up#i should really tag this post with like#tw: anxiety#or sth?#i mean i guess it can be quite triggering for some reading it#but sadly that's her#with her many many issues#anyway hope that was interesting#and sorry for the delay in responding to this#but you know the drill i was feeling drained etc. etc.#sharicka dawkings#shari dawkings#sharicka blake#shari blake#neverdoitagain#next one i'm going to do is carys' in-depth one#and i'm going to do it for britt#i'm stressed#now you're gonna see the real one with flat characters

Old School X is a project interviewing X-Files fanfic authors who were posting fic during the original run of the show. New interviews are posted every Tuesday.
Interview with bugs
bugs has 40 stories at Gossamer. They mostly focus on Mulder and Scully, but there are also some goodies featuring Reyes and Doggett. I’ve recced some of my favorites of her fics here before, including The Link. She also co-ran WhyIncision, a fun, smart X-Files mailing list that dissected fics like a book club. Big thanks to bugs for doing this interview.
Does it surprise you that people are still interested in reading your X-Files fanfics and others that were posted during the original run of the show (1993-2002)?
Not really. While I was still in high school, I started watching the then 20 year old OG Star Trek and became a Trekkie of a sort. Starlog magazine, James Blish novels and the other novelizations, and while I was working as a library page, I found fanfiction one day among the periodicals. Who knows how fanfiction ended up as part of a library's materials, but there it was, this tattered mimeographed collection. The fic that had the most impact on me was one where Nurse Chapel wrestled a giant alien snake to save Spock's life.
So when I got into XF, one of the first things I did was look for fanfic, knowing somewhere out there, Scully was wrestling a big snake for Mulder.
That experience showed me the power of fandom, that even without the internet, how the second generation of Trekkies joined the original group to advocate for the franchise to be revived. I remember sitting in the theater for that first awful Star Trek movie, choked up with what we'd done.
Tragic backstory way to say, no I'm not surprised that a well-produced show like XF would beget future generations of fans, and that they'd be chewing their way through the fanfic archives still being maintained.
What do you think of when you think about your X-Files fandom experience? What did you take away from it?
I'm so grateful to the fandom. Literally formed the life I have today through the confidence it gave me. Many of my friends to this day are 'pocket friends' from the various fandoms I've been in, and the longest friendships were formed in XF. I learned how to write, both technically and finding my voice. I learned how to think analytically, more than any college courses.
The two most important things I took away were, write for yourself first and always, and shit ain't that damn important. In the end, it's a TV show.
Social media didn't really exist during the show's original run. How were you most involved with the X-Files online (atxc, message board, email mailing list, etc.)?
YIKES. I came in at the Fight the Future summer hiatus, so the waning days of ATXC, then we moved to mailing lists, right? Yahoo Groups was in there somewhere. Finally message boards. Live Journal rose up at the end of the run which began to fragment the fandom even before the show ended, along with the migration off our individual websites to Archive of Our Own, fanfiction.net and such. We went from group discussion platforms to 'come look at my blog for my thoughts'. It was different and I didn't particularly like it, but in the end, when I came back to fandom for a new show....I had to get a Live Journal. That's the most interesting part of fandom, that a platform doesn't mold a fandom; we use the platform and when it's no longer useful to us, we abandon it en mass.
What did you take away from your experience with X-Files fic or with the fandom in general?
I've touched on that a bit, but to elaborate, I'm glad I started in the XF fandom. It had such high standards and I hope that I maintain those standards for myself to this day. These days, I don't usually have a beta reader, but that took a couple hundred posted fics to get to that point.
Having seen the same exact flamewars and divides and squabbles over and over, seen how the taste of 'fame' can drive someone to be rather unpleasant, has given me a much more 'whatever' attitude. It's sort of comforting when joining a new fandom to know what's going to happen next in its natural progression.
What was it that got you hooked on the X-Files as a show?
There's a meme "I have a type," and XF definitely had that type, but it just took me a while to get there. I was away at college then working on the road when the show started, and wasn't home on Friday nights most of the year. My mother has always been a big sci-fi fan, so she actually was watching before me. I don't like scary things, and would leave the room if it was on when I'd visit her. I was home for Christmas when Christmas Carol/Emily aired and I remember standing tentatively just inside the room so I could flee if necessary, and watched Scully go through the wringer, and ranting, "What the hell is this? Why are they putting that poor woman through this!?" I also saw how the show was doing the big ship tease, and I was like, uh, I don't have time for this. Even by my 20's, I'd been done wrong by so many shows that I'd become bitter. But the first film trailers suggested they were actually going from UST to RST, so I figured I could give 2 hours of my time for that. And yeah...but I was hooked, and WENT TO BLOCKBUSTER AND RENTED THE VHS TAPES TO CATCH UP....this interview is making me feel very old.
What got you involved with X-Files fanfic?
I've always been a shipper and have no shame in that, as I think forming and maintaining a relationship is the most conflict-ridden enterprise humans can attempt, and thus is the most challenging thing to write about. Like many fanfic writers, I'd 'told stories in my head' ever since I can remember about the characters from books, shows and movies. It was just a matter of then writing it down for the first time.
After I was sucked into the show and it was still the summer hiatus, I got on my first computer, dialed up that screeching modem, and went on Netscape to search for that fanfic I knew had to be out there from my Trek experience a decade ago. Like many people, after inhaling much of the delicious fics out there, I decided I can do that. I'm someone who's very methodical on my approach to something new, so I studied what worked/what didn't, the expected formatting, got a sense of the culture I was entering, acquired a critical beta reader, so when I actually submitted the first chapter to AXTC, I was calm and confident.
What is your relationship like now to X-Files fandom?
I watch from the sidelines, with a vague little smile on my lips.
Were you involved with any fandoms after the X-Files? If so, what was it like compared to X-Files?
Yes, I have. Battlestar Galactica had a lot of Philes, but it was still a big step away from the very organized fandom in X-Files. Plus, with so many characters, there could be lots of little groups focused on their favorites. Same in the Downton Abbey fandom. Just a different dynamic.
On the other end of the spectrum, one of my most popular fics is in the Silence of the Lambs fandom which I've never been involved with any other fans or their fandom, if it exists. It just sits out there on fanfiction.net and chugs along with the reads. My current fandom is The Doctor Blake Mysteries which is tiny but mighty--the saying is, we're six people and a shoelace. It's shown me that it's not the size, not the 'fame' possible, but the passion that makes a fandom.
Sadly, at least at this time, I don't think there will ever be an experience like The X-Files heyday. It was such a golden moment of the rise of internet and home computer use by the general public, a large generation of educated women having the time to participate in fandom, and there wasn't the amount of 'noise' that is distracting us all now. I'm so glad that you're doing this exercise to record our thoughts. We've already lost so many of the OG folks. My first beta, Janet Caires-Lesgold; Trixie, way too young; Shari, also too young; Brandon D Ray, leaving his family too soon; and many more.

BOOKS!
So I’ve recently found my love of books. It started with audio books...and then reading while on the treadmill (giant ipad, big print).
