I tried making that writing roadmap to keep myself from being overwhelmed. To quiet things down in my head. And it worked for a little bit but… I’m overwhelmed. Every idea is screaming and none of them know how to take turns. Incongruous scenes pushing each other out of the way so quickly it’s just blurs behind my eyes it’s going to make me motion sick. I can’t handle more than one input at a time. So if I want it to be quiet I can turn on music but then I literally can’t think. And that’s not even getting into the real life being an adult and keeping my life on the tracks

And my daughter just started banging on the cabinets (her sign that she enjoyed her breakfast) so I’m gonna go cry and curl up with Death Note until the world fades out enough that I can hold myself together even a little

The face of a man perpetually in physiotherapy

Just finished day one of the new shoulder regiment and I am in agony

I wish the reboot had never been made

stop using juuls with the fools and come smoke a blunt with a cunt

If I had a nickel for every time I wrote an AU and ended up with a rarepair/crackship, I’d have at least 3 nickels just this year

I miss reading manga. I haven’t been doing a lot of any kind of reading in like the past year. Things just got too busy/rough.

But it’s easier to read the manga for reference than rewatch Death Note as I’m writing. And @gravesidevibes has the boxset all pretty.

Remember how I once (maybe twice) said I’m always rereading Certain Prey by John Sandford? Well, who had “Arin adds the Death Note manga to her always reading list”? Cuz it wasn’t me lol

When you remove a line in your manuscript and then read on further and have to add it back because you realize why it was there in the first place

I’ve never properly outlined a long fic. Like not in a way where I was breaking it down into chapters before hand. So this is a really interesting experience. I’m having fun. I have no idea where I’m going. No idea what comes next. Outlining by the seat of my pants or something like that

I think I like outlining?

Procrastinating actually starting by getting weird replying to comments on Ao3 🙃🙃

Sometimes, one is just a little weird. Odd. Strange, even.

I don’t like typing with the stylus. I think I’ll need to go get a pair of those touch gloves so I can type normally even when it’s cold. As we enter the cold months… why can’t the mornings be the warm part of the day 😫😫

Glee fic is outlined! And it only took me like an hour?

I still need to do subplots (which will make up the bulk of it admittedly) but there’s nothing that says I can’t start the main plot and get everything rolling while I figure them out.

I wish it weren’t so cold outside tho. It’s a lot slower typing with a stylus than my thumbs. Gonna have to pop a few more layers on before I go back out there 🥶🥶

I’m gonna bite you

you need to understand that i have two sets of headcanons. there's the set of realistic headcanons based on my genuine reading of the show, and then there's me playing pretend with my dolls.

Forgot to add one last fic. That’s just sort of floating around. I plan to write it tentatively in this batch, tentatively starting the next batch. And that would be:

The Nursery Nurse Omegaverse AU featuring Deliah/Geraldine, a Mialotte pregnancy, and a whole lot of alpha!preg

Writing Roadmap

Just posted the smutty sickfic I’ve been working on. AO3 curse got me and I was in the hospital last week. So glad to finally have it done and posted tho. It was a struggle as the closer I got to the end the more plot bunnies started multiplying. And now I am free to start working on those plot bunnies. So here is the (ideal) order that’s gonna go in:

Glee Finnchel role swap set in 4A (this has been haunting me for a few years and I finally feel motivated to write it)

Smut for OCs (won’t be posted, maybe happen before the glee fic)

Death Note domestics AU where the series was just Light’s nightmare and he and L have been married for years

Part 2 of Damage Left Behind

Phaidei modern AU (possibly set on a cruise ship for forced proximity reasons)

I’m not going to get too ahead of myself and keep planning ahead. That’s a great way to get overwhelmed. Damage Left Behind has a total of 4-5 parts planned, obviously only one is on the list right now. I’d like to try to get through this list before making any more plans.

OH and not listed is I would still like to clean up and post the HSR Bronya/Blade catharsis fic I wrote last summer as well as the TNN essays I have. Titling and front end (tags, summary, etc) are what are holding me back 🥲🥲

I miss when characters could be morally complex and/or terrible people without the author having to declare “I disapprove of this.”

Now it feels like:

Character: (Commits heinous crimes).

Authors note: Just to be clear, this is not endorsed. I'm not morally aligned with the fictional disaster I created.
