Useful(ish) Sticky!

I’m trying. Really I am.

I want to be here more than I am.

I want to be geeky and share what brings me joy with everyone here more than I do.

I want to FUCKING write for the LOVE OF GOD, more than I do anymore.

But mostly,

I want to make friends with like-minds.

What you can expect from this journal:

Shenanigans and Hijinx.
Book Reviews (mostly queer lit)
Broken Promises to be here regularly.
Half-finished memes.
Seriously, I am the WORST!

Things I post about When I do Post:

Me being ridiculous about what I'm reading
Fandom Shenanigans
Writing Shenanigans

Fandoms:

The most reading and writing I have done historically is for:

Harry Potter--my forever fandom, though that has waned since the whole JKR being a giant piece of shit thing.

I sadly only get inspired to write once a year for [community profile] yuletide these days, or when I have big feelings about things like Heartstopper and The Green Creek series. 


Hmmm… What else? My fic can be mostly found Here on AO3

Pronouns: She/her but I’m also considering “Whatever” as a pronoun too.

Which brings me to the Friending policy:

Feel free to friend me all you want. I’ll more than likely friend you back--especially if you throw a comment below introducing yourself. If you just want to read my public fandom related posts, that’s cool too, just let me know so that I don’t accidentally friend you and expose you to my brand of silly ridiculousness. Cool?

It's so great when you figure out your own writing style 🩡🩡🩡 I thought I was a pantser when I was just starting out, because all the more plotter-type-advice I found focused mostly on spreadsheets and "at this percentage point of the story you do X-plot-step", and I didn't vibe with that (no hate on anyone who does, it just doesn't work for me personally). I do like to try out new techniques for writing stories and I might like listening to writing theory and tips as much as I enjoy writing 😁 It's such a great feeling when you have an "aha!"-moment as you try out a writing tip or read meta about why some versions of prose work for you and some don't (aaaand that's where I'll pause my writing meta ranting for now πŸ˜†)

I do love me a fix-it AU πŸ’– Will take me a while to catch up on canon, but once I have, I'm definitely checking out your fics πŸ’š

Ah yes, the WIP-fanfics-of-ages-past, I have them too πŸ˜… There are a few ol' fics I keep promising myself I'll finish one day, buuuuuut...yeah, probably not πŸ˜†
