Dear Author,

Thank you so much for writing for me! I'm really excited to see what you come up with.

This letter contains a list of Likes and DNWs as well as a couple of prompts. If none of the prompts catch your eye, then write whatever you like. As long as it doesn't hit any of my DNWs, we're good.

( Read more... )

And that's it! That's the letter. If none of these ideas appeal to you, then please feel free to write whatever you're inspired to. I can't wait to read what you create for me!

Challenge #10: Big Mood (Board)

CHOOSE SOMETHING YOU LOVE AND CREATE A MINI MOOD COLLECTION OF THREE (or more) ITEMS THAT EVOKE YOUR FEELINGS ABOUT IT. You don’t have to limit yourself to visual media, or collect the items into a special format like a square (though you can if you’d like).

I've already mentioned in this year's Snowflake Challenge that I create playlists for pairings/fandoms, so I'm going to share one of those. Like I've said before, listening to playlists like this helps me to write. They also help me to stay within a particular fandom vibe whenever I'm not actively writing fanfic as well as help process fic ideas. So.

These are not things I usually share. Argh.

( Read more... )

That isn't the whole playlist. Some of the songs that I've left out are there for "inexplicable vibes" reasons; some are there because I listened to them while obsessing over the fandom and accidentally assigned them to a character and now can't separate them.

So, that's how I write things. I quite enjoyed writing for this challenge: it was nice to thing about how I do things and compare them to how I used to do it. There's been a lot of trial and error over the years.

I used to have to write analyses of my own writing for university (my BA is in English Lit and Creative Writing, and we had to do that for the CW part) and it used to make me want to die inside from how fucking pretentious the whole exercise was. They were never really accurate either, mostly because they talked about symbolism more than "I wrote this for a grade and I hate this teacher, so fuck it." But now I'm now kind of wondering what an analysis piece would look like for one of my fics. Huh. Let me know if you want to see one someday, I guess.

Challenge #7

LIST THREE (or more) THINGS YOU LIKE ABOUT YOURSELF. They don’t have to be your favorite things, just things that you think are good. Feel free to expand as much or as little as you want

1. I like my creativity. I think I'm a fairly solid writer, and I enjoy reading back over my own stuff at times because I'm the audience I write for the most. I've also spent the last year or so learning how to paint with oils, which has been pretty fun to explore.

2. I'm pretty adventurous. I'm up for trying pretty much anything at least once (my hard limit is cave diving), whether it's an activity or something to eat. I was raised to not say I don't like something without trying it first, and that's kind of stuck with me. It's led to me eating ready salted crickets (crunchy, but not much in the way of flavour), but it's stuck regardless. I also enjoy learning how to cook different things, and experimenting with putting new ingredients together.

3. I've developed some good boundaries. I used to be a bit of a people-pleaser, but I've become a lot more sure of myself in recent years. I've also stopped caring so much about what other people think of me, and while I'm still generally a kind and helpful person, I'm a lot more protective of myself.

Challenge #6

Top 10 Challenge.

I decided to write about the top 10 books and short stories that I read this year. I read less this year than I did in 2024. Partially due to availability: English books are possible to buy here, and I'm a big fan of a ~~not very~~ local second-hand bookshop that primarily buys from and sells to the expat community. The bookshop in my local mall also has a surprisingly large selection of foreign-language books, although they're a lot more expensive ~~and the organisation of that section relies on a system that I haven't been able to decipher yet, so there's no way to find anything quickly. You can only go if you're prepared to browse for hours.~~

Anyway, here's the list! It's not in any particular order; it's just ten things I liked.

Snowflake Challenge: A warmly light quaint street of shops at night with heavy snow falling.

In your own space, create a list of at least three things you'd love to receive, a wishlist of sorts. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it and include a link to your wishlist if you feel comfortable doing so.

1. Fan art - I adore receiving fan art for my writing. It always makes my day and I love going back and staring at it over and over again. My writing can be found here. If anything inspires you, then I'd love to see the result.

2. Icons - I'm always on the hunt for new icons that represent my current fandoms. Icons for IT, YuGiOh! DM, MDZS and SVSSS are all very much appreciated as are more gothic/spooky-themed ones.

3. Fandom recs - IT: Welcome to Derry finally inspired me to get my shit together and get a decent VPN, so I'm no longer restricted to things that are available only in Vietnam. So, recs please! I'd love to expand my fandoms list. I'm usually into horror, crime, or things that can be construed in a vaguely spooky way, but I do also enjoy fantasy - specifically either classic fantasy, e.g. The Lord of the Rings, or xianxia.

Meme taken from

calliopes_pen:

Take your last 5* fanfics and copy their first and last lines. We have to guess what the story is about!

*you can go back as far as you like to find fanfics where it's not obvious what's happened.

(I'm also using completed works.)

1. First: He walks up the steps to the Niebolt House knowing that what he’s doing is stupid.

Last: He closes his eyes and lifts his hand to his mouth, wraps his lips around his fingers and tastes cotton candy, popcorn, and sickly-sweet death on his skin.

2. First:George pulls his car into the cemetery car park.

Last: He reaches up, and Pennywise grins as he cups its face in his hand.

3. First: The comment arrives on cue, one hour after his latest chapter hits the internet.

Last: A-Yuan doesn’t know it yet, but the sale of his novel – the one he’d took a chance on developing at the retreat – has earned him enough to buy a ring.

4. First: Their parents make her wear a veil every time she leaves her courtyard.

Last: She wants to be sure, before she has to send him back to Cang Qiong, that he’s given her the baby she so desperately wants.

5. First: The palanquin comes to a halt.

Last: He wonders what the monster of Bailu forest is doing now.

Challenge #4: Rec The Contents Of Your Last Page

Any website that you like, be it fanfiction, art, social media, or something a bit more eccentric!

I think that, outside of fandom spaces like DW and Ao3, the fannish site I've been using the most recently has been the Stephen King Wiki. For obvious reasons, I guess XD Not to say that I don't like rewatching the movies/series at every opportunity, or reading the books, but when I'm writing, I don't always want to find a page or a clip for a quick detail.

(For anyone who is curious, it's possible to buy English-language novels here - and I have! - but availability is pretty much up to fate and ordering them to be imported can be prohibitively expensive. Yay, taxes.)

I was also involved in the creation of a zine last year, so I'm going to rec it here. I wrote for the ABCs of Problematic Kink zine, which can be read and downloaded here. My letter was N for Necrophilia (it's on pages 31 and 32), and this was the project that I finally decided to write MDZS fic for. It was really fun to be involved with: the community involved in creating the zine were all very friendly and supportive, and honestly, the whole thing was a blast. So, if you fancy having a bit extra short, kinky, dead-dove creations in your life, please take a look!

This little book meme is shamelessly lifted from

calliopes_pen.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Turn to page 126
3. The 6th full sentence is your life in 2026.

My nearest book is The Shining by Stephen King, so we're off to a great start before I've even opened it.

I'm going to include the following lines since this is actually a bit of dialogue followed by a lovely little sinister premonition.

"I doubt it," Ullman repeated, and he sounded sad. "The place in Florida is a dump, if the out-and-out truth is to be spoken. The Overlook is my real job. Take good care of it for me, Mr Torrance."

"I think it will be here when you get back next spring," Jack said and a thought flashed through Danny's mind.

(but will we?)

So, what this reads as to me is reluctantly turning over responsibility of something to someone else and it all going to hell in a handbasket.

Fandom: SVSSS
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Gen, Angst
Pairing: Pre-Shang Qinghua/Shen Yuan
Warnings: Self-esteem issues, AU - No Transmigration, References to Depression
Disclaimer: I do not own SVSSS and I am making no profit from this story.
Summary: It’s on a whim that he checks his email inbox afterwards; he usually throws himself into writing straight away, desperate to get his words out and his deadlines met, but he was unexpectedly prolific yesterday and he can afford the pause.

He deletes most of them without thinking. He reads a couple of newsletters to remind himself that he used to be part of a community once, then deletes those too. His mouse is hovering over the mass delete function when a subject line catches his eye: Paradise Hills Writers Retreat: Your Reservation.
