So, I haven’t been around much over the last 2 years - partly because I was more focused on books than fanfic recently - but with Twitter potentially imploding and posting my first new fic since 2020 earlier this month, I’m giving Tumblr another go!

Maybe you remember me, maybe you don’t, but I’m Rachel, author and fangirl! I joined Tumblr as part of the X Files / Gillian Anderson fandom, but I’m also here for all things sapphic and all kinds of other random fandoms and pretty things that catch my eye 💜

My most popular fanfic is the Two Worlds Collide series, which is my Dana Scully/Stella Gibson X Files/The Fall crossover fic. I’m a huge Stella/Scully shipper! Give me a s/s fic, and I will read and obsess over it and fall in love with them just a little bit more! I’ve also written various short Mulder/Scully fics and one crossover with Sex Education where Scully delivers Jean’s baby on a train. Find all my fic here.

When I’m not fangirling, I’m writing books. You can find my published work here. And I’ve just moved to Vermont! It’s beautiful here, but the downside is being super far from everything. We’ve already got snow - eep!

Anyway...see you around! *waves*

NEW X-FILES FANFIC EXCHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT!

It’s that time of year again! I’m happy to announce the fifth annual Secret Santa Exchange will take place on December 17th, 2022! 

General Rules and Sign Up Information in the Thread!

As with all the Secret Santa Exchanges, there is no set theme or rules for the prompt. These stories are Secret Santa gifts, so you can ask for whatever you’d like!

- If you’re not comfortable putting your address on this document, no problem. You just need to ensure that I have it. All emails will be deleted from the document after the sign-up period ends.

- Some people have issues accessing the sign-up sheet on their phones. If you’re having problems, I suggest trying it on your desktop. If nothing seems to be working, then just send me your info and I’ll put it on the sheet.

- I know it can be tricky to think of prompts, and I totally don’t mind at all if you have TBD in place of the prompt for a while, but please try to put something in there when you can – even if you change your mind later.  I just ask this because sometimes people are hesitant to sign up if they don’t know what the prompts are. Again, please feel free to put TBD so that your info is confirmed and you’re joined, just add the prompt when you think of it!

Theme: None, whatever you’d like! 

Minimum: 1k 

Sign-Up Ends: November 18th, 11:59pm CST

Shimmer

Anyone here remember me?! 😉 I’m back, and I wrote a fic for the @xfilesfanficexchange 2022 Stella/Scully Exchange! It’s maybe the fluffiest thing I’ve ever written (and also very smutty!) 🔥

For: stellaxxgibson

It’s a night of firsts for Stella and Dana: their first night out since the baby arrived, Dana’s first time in a gay club, and a special surprise Stella never expected.

Read Shimmer on AO3 here!

The Stella/Scully Exchange is tomorrow (11/5), and I am EXCITED!! 🥰 This will be my first new fic in 2 years!

Coming up next, I am thrilled to announce 23 talented authors are delving into the Stella/Scully Exchange (the first ever crossover exchange)!

Prepare for these stories to drop on November 5th! 💗

#XFStellaScully2022

Participants: You should have received two emails, one from the secret Santa website with your person's name and the other from the exchange account which is just welcoming you.

Let me know if you didn't receive either.

Stella/Scully exchange!!

Slash exchange!!

Dark fic!!

These are amazing! I’m coming out of my semi fic retirement to participate in the s/s exchange! :)

NEW FANFICTION EXCHANGE ANNOUNCEMENTS!

We’re waiting on the final One Bed fics to come in, but in the meantime, I wanted to make sure to get the exchange sign ups out for those ready for more!

In typical exchanges, there are certain things participants are discouraged from asking for. In particular: triggering content, ships other than MSR, and non-XF related content.

I realize these limitations can be annoying to individuals who enjoy this content, and I never want to exclude anyone from participating. So for the October/November exchanges, we will be focusing on THREE themes that allow the aforementioned tropes that are usually banned.

I would like to announce the following new exchanges (details on each to follow)! 

The Darkfic Exchange (October 29th)

The Stella/Scully Exchange (November 5th)

The Slash Exchange (November 19th)

I know three might seem like a lot, but I presume people might not be as interested in doing all three of these since they’re a bit niche theme-wise (but more power to you if you do). Also, unlike the other multiple-theme exchange announcements, these events will be on different dates

Hey, did you know that I wrote a fic set on Mulder’s birthday? There’s also a spooky trip to the forest 👻🌲

When Scully experiences a powerful sense of déjà vu that leads her and Mulder to a body in the woods, will he be able to convince her to follow her intuition before it's too late?
