Goodbye from me <3

I know this blog has been dead for years now (with the exception of me, y’know, promoting my own things like a jerk) but today I am truly finished with it - every web series that I talked about whilst actively maintaining this blog is finally over.

When I was at university, this blog took up a lot of my free time. I used to post an original gifset every day, with extras on holidays. I used to comb the tags looking for content so I could represent each show equally. I watched a shitload of web series (even if, lets face it, I never really attempted to get my to-do list down), most of which were good, a few of which were not good, and a disappointing amount of which eventually let me down.

However, this blog has put me in touch with so many people who I continue to be the best of friends with, even if we no longer have common fandoms. I honestly cannot imagine what my life would be like without the friendship of these people, some of whom I have met (one of whom I travelled across the world for her wedding) and some I am yet to meet. And so I am thankful for this blog, for the friends I made, and for Ngozi Ukazu for giving me something to hyperfixate on (and create content for) even when everything else was finished.

Most of you (the ones that aren’t bots) already follow me elsewhere, but for those of you who don’t - I’m still around at @unacaritafeliz and on twitter as @heyrae93. Lets keep in touch - I could always use a few more friends.

So thank you, and goodbye,

Rae <3

Guys the most incredible (web series related) thing just happened to me, I will tell you about it on Friday but if you follow me on Twitter you might already know!

Want to read an original novel by yours truly?

Hey friends! I did a slightly scary thing!

I uploaded one of my novels to SwoonReads.

If you’re not familiar, SwoonReads is a website where aspiring (and also published) YA and New Adult authors can upload their manuscripts to get feedback and ratings from a collection of readers a la Ao3, and the most well received get a publishing contract! 

Now there are obviously many many steps between uploading a manuscript onto the site and getting published, but first steps are first steps.

And the good news is, anyone can get an account for free and become a reader/rater!

So if you like YA novels and like giving constructive feedback and/or have ever wanted to read my original writing, you can find my novel here: https://swoonreads.com/m/spinning-tales-spinning-truth/ and visit the rest of the site from there.

If you’re curious about the novel particulars, it is a Sleeping Beauty retelling that focuses on the prince and combines Sleeping Beauty mythologies from all over the world because I’m a nerd like that.

Happy reading!

Happy 20th birthday to one of the best fictional characters I’ve written. 

And hey, if you’ve never read The Art of Letter Writing, A-Z, the original interactive YA novel I wrote with @creativityobsessed, you know the whole thing is available for you to read in one sitting on artofletterwriting.com, right?

Please help us out by sharing this, and donating if you can. I know that even a $1 donation would make a huge difference to Ella, Chris and Dobby ❤️

My friends' dog was recently attacked by a much larger dog. Ella and Chris are two of the best people I know and their dog means everything to them so I'd really appreciate it if you could please help share their fund-raiser (and donate if you can)

Do you like books? Do you like diverse books? Do you like diverse books by women writers from around the world?

If, like me, you hate how “best of” lists are always

Super white

Mostly dudes

Almost entirely British or American (and maybe a European or two)

Straight

THIS IS YOUR CHANCE to help compile a “Best of” list that is something DIFFERENT. Ahead of August (#WITMonth, women in translation month, look it up!), readers will have the chance to submit ***10 nominations*** for the “Best Books by Women Writers in Translation” list! Nominations close on August 25, 2019. If it’s a book by a woman writing in a language other than English, it is eligible!

So if you’ve always felt angry that your country, your language, your authors, your childhood favorites, your representation, your LIFE hasn’t been well reflected in canon-defining lists, this is an opportunity to start shifting the balance back. There is more to this world and there is more to our literature! The more nominations, the higher a book is ranked, so boost your favorite titles and share to get as many readers as possible involved! (And no, you don’t have to submit ten, but remember that anything over ten won’t be counted, so choose wisely!)

IMAGE ACCESSIBILITY: Banner with the following text:

#100BestWIT

GOAL: Compiling a list of the 100 Best Books by Women in Translation!

DEADLINE: August 25th, 2019

RULES:

Up to 10 nominations per person spread out until August 25

Nominations can be tweeted, DMed, PMed, emailed, commented on, or smoke signaled to @read_WIT/@biblibio on any platform (@readWIT on Instagram)

Anything published in book format is eligible (novels, nonfiction, poetry, plays…), with no genre limitations

Authors may be living or dead

Only the top 2 titles per author nominated will be included

All works by women* written in languages other than English are eligible, whether or not they’ve been translated into other languages

If the list is incomplete by August 25th, @read_WIT picks the rest! ;)

Choose wisely… and have fun!!!

Sup, bitches? Who still follows this blog? I'm drunk so lets chat!

[welovewebseries]

My tumblr recommended list is showing me lolilo posts in the year of our lord 2019. Bitch, I didn't even like that show when it came out.

[welovewebseries]

Over the past two weeks I've hung out with so many friends that I made through this blog, including a few people I giffed for this blog!! I'm glad that all the hours I wasted on this lead to some good friendships.

✨Big announcement time! I SHIP IT Season 2 will be coming to your eyeballs on The CW as a TV(!!!) show on Fridays at 9pm starting April 19th! ✨

Season 2 will be a total series reboot in an alternate universe, telling the story of Ella, Tim, and friends on a whole new musical fandom adventure. Every iteration of I SHIP IT so far - the short film, digital series, and now TV (!!) show - has seen a different spin on the world of fandom. But at its heart - this show has always been a fangirl fantasy.

The story I wanted to tell this season is the most personal one yet - Ella is a fanfiction writer who aspires to work on her favorite TV show, “Superstition”. We made this season with a specific audience in mind - my fanfiction-writing teenage self and fangirls who want to take over Hollywood someday.

If you’re either one of those - a fangirl or a time-traveling teenage Yulin - you make up the audience that I most want to find our show and your opinions are the ones I’ll take the most to heart. My request - when our show comes out, please consider watching it and giving it a chance. If you like it, please be vocal about it online and in your fan communities.

I want to show The CW that they were right to take a chance on this story (and on me) - that fangirls can be more than a marketing demo, that we have our own stories to tell too. I hope I get to watch yours next.

<3 Yulin
