Hey everyone,

First of all I want to thank all of you who read my stories and follow me here on Tumblr. You guys make my life more interesting.💕

So, I've been going through a lot these past few months, and although I've tried my best to put on a good face, keep writing and updating, my head's not in the right place. A long time ago I struggled with anxiety and a eating disorder, and I guess I've hit a rough spot once again. I'm going to take some time to take care of myself and hopefully I'll be back soon.

Once again, thank you all for everything.💜

xoxo

“She remembered it was August and they say August brings bad luck. But September would arrive one day like an exit. And September was for some reason a lighter and more transparent month.”

— Clarice Lispector, from The Complete Stories; “In Search for a Dignity,” (via writemeanna)

“Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in you souls. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

The Quantock Hills

This is the most incredible time of year - the end of English Summer. The heather in full bloom at the end of August on the Quantock Hills. Get to a moor before the bloom ends!

ROBIN HOOD AU

After escaping capture, Jughead Jones returns from the Crusades expecting his life would go back to normal. Upon arrival, he found Nottingham in uproar. Prince Hiram had taken the throne while his brother was in the middle east fighting for their homeland, and his brand of rule was dripping in cruelty.

When his families lands were seized to satisfy "back taxes", Jughead knew he had to make a stand. Unfortunately for him, there was already a vigilante waging war against Prince Hiram, one who was conveniently using his name.

It didn't take long to track the man down so that he could reclaim his moniker and take charge. He was surprised to find that the man in question wasn't a man at all. It was a familiar face he'd often dreamt of while he was at war. The woman he'd always dreamt of marrying before duty pulled him away.

options for when you no longer like a fic you wrote

Orphan it. By adding it to the orphan_account on AO3, you remove your name from the fic and from the comments (if you replied to them). The work is removed from your account and from your stats. You will not see future stats or comments or kudos on that work unless you click into the fic yourself to investigate. You can no longer edit or delete the work after you orphan it. You can not get the work back.

Add the fic to an anonymous collection. This will remove your username from the story and from the comments if you choose to reply, but you will retain ownership of the work and still be able to edit/delete/orphan it in future. You can also regain ownership at any time by removing it from the anonymous collection. 

Add a disclaimer or other author’s note to the top of the story explaining how you feel, or what’s changed since you wrote the fic. 

Edit the fic. Either make changes to the existing story on AO3 or create a new story and include something in the summary or an author’s note that says you are rewriting your own work. You can even link the two together in a series or with the inspired by function. 

Delete the fic. While this will sadden readers for whom it might be a favourite story, this is always an option. Your Archive is your own, and you can control which of your works remain on the internet.

Remember that you wrote that fic at a time in your life when you felt a certain way or had a certain skill level. There’s no shame in that. You had to start somewhere to get where you are today. ❤
