#uhhh the answer it became several separate whump original fics

Okay, actually, you know what, here's the master list of all my current original fiction WIPs. Because I feel the need to prove that some of them do have actual names. For honour's sake.

WIPs with actual names:

The Game duology: I Lost the Game and [unnamed sequel] - functionally WIPII

Evil Plans Trilogy: How to Take Over the World, How to Rule the World, How to Destroy the World (+ companion novels: Nefarious Schemes, Villainous Plots, How to Save the World) - functionally WIPIV

Evil Plans AU (Alien Universe) Trilogy: How to Conquer the Universe, How to Reign Over the Universe, How to End the Universe - also WIPIV

Tall Tales of Terribly Tempest Tseas Series - functionally WIPVI

Old Timey Pirates Duology: Good Ol' Fashioned Piracy and Ye Olde Skull and Crossbones - functionally WIPIX

Princess of Decay Trilogy - functionally WIPXI

Swincorn Classical Academy of Magic (S.C.A.M.) series - originally WIPXII

I am actually so proud of every single one of these names. If I trad pub these books I will fight to keep these names. These names are final and will not be changed.

WIPs with working titles that will probably be changed later:

House of the Windtaken series - functionally WIPVIII

WIPs with numbered placeholder names because idk what to call them at this point. The title is either one of first things I know about a story or it is the last thing I will figure out. (The only exception to this rule so far has been S.C.A.M. which I figured out after a significant amount of worldbuilding.)

WIPI (fucking massive series)

WIPIII (trilogy)

WIPV (series)

WIPVII (standalone)

WIPX (standalone)

WIPXIV (four books)

WIPXV (idk at this point)

WIPXVI (also idk)

On the other hand... my WIPs in order of priority (subject to change on a whim):

WIPVII - 60% done draft 3

WIPI - stuck on worldbuilding, stuck on plot

S.C.A.M. (WIPXII) - stuck on plot (got stuck 25k into a first draft, decided to scrap it)

WIPX - stuck on plot

Evil Plans (How to Take Over the World etc.) (WIPIV) - avoiding research that will probably get me put on a list hehe

Princess of Decay (WIPXI) - needs more direction

WIPIII - stuck on worldbuilding

The Game (WIPII) - needs more direction, ideas

WIPXIV - needs more ideas, putting it off bc it's a very new WIP and older WIPs get priority

WIPV - still only have a vague idea of what I want for it

Old Timey Pirates (WIPIX) - no idea what the central conflict is

WIPVIII/House of the Windtaken - no idea what the conflict is

WIPXV - yeah I got nothing but vibes for this one so far

WIPXVI - not emotionally ready to write it yet

Tall Tales of Terribly Tempest Tseas (WIPVI) - waiting bc these are my dad's stories to tell first.

so uhh yeah... my WIP having a name has nothing to do with where it sits on the priority list ahem
