You know what?

I love you, fics that take months to update. I click on the newest chapter and have no memory of this place and get to go back some chapters and rediscover how much i love everything about this story.

I love you, fics that take years to update. I think of you fondly, and know your names, go search for you and see an update from this year and scream, diving in uncaring of any missed details (i will finish the update and read you in reverse because this is a treat you have bestowed)

I love you, fics that probably will never update again. Thank you for being a roman empire for my mind, thank you for teaching me about the ephemeral fandom experience, for inspiring a thousand million what if-s, for being a comfort read and a nostalgia read and a reread.

I love you fic writers, who jump into projects and stories with enthusiasm. I love you when you succeed in pumping out those chapters and that love doesn't go away when you stop.

I love you fic writers who post and then get in your own head and never feel confident enough to update, whether it's at all or whether it's just that one story.

I love you fic writers, who have a fandom or media hurt you to the point of abandoning or having a hard time with their WIPs.

I love you fic writers, who lose interest or have life changes or illness or bad memory. Thank you for being part of the fandom, a core part of the fandom. Thank you for the time spent in the fandom.

I love you, fic writers who try out something new and then stop. You're so valid.

I love you, WIP fics that may or may not ever get finished. Thank you for brightening my day in the way only you could have.

New story requires new fanart. So here’s a quick doodle of Aloy while I was on break.

I’ve just finished Horizon Zero Dawn with my husband and it’s so my kind of game. Archer girl and mecha dinosaurs for the win.

Shoutout to My Lady Jane for having a young girl watch her sister get married to a horrible old man and her immediate solution was to murder the man. That’s absolutely the solution a baby sister would come to.

Must a show be “good”? Is it not enough to be an alternative history that asks “what if instead of the Catholic-Protestant schism causing complications in Tudor England, it’s Animorphs?” that’s super horny on main, has the vibe of A Knight’s Tale, surprisingly pretty accurate historical costumes (with a few notable exceptions), and a bunch of British character actors acting absolutely wild?

Sometimes the media says “there are no words” to describe or justify horrific attacks on hospitals. Other times, the media has countless words to describe and justify horrific attacks on hospitals.

Hello! As those who have been following my blog for some time now may know, my name is Liz. I primarily write fanfiction for the Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West fandom, but I also enjoy exploring other fandoms and am currently working on my own book.

I'll get straight to the point. I unexpectedly lost my job last Wednesday. It was a tough blow since I had put in a lot of time and effort to do well at it. I am now actively searching for a new job and have a few potential prospects, but my previous job was what paid for my mortgage and bills. Without it, I'm not sure if I'll be able to cover my expenses until I find something new.

Therefore I am opening commissions. I currently have five slots open, and I can write for a variety of fandoms, pairings, etc. Feel free to DM me for any details!

I do have a couple of rules however:

Anything NSFW can be negotiated with a higher price attached (mostly because I rarely write sexual content/smut) to the final piece but I REFUSE to write the following:

Rape, non-consent Anything involving the abuse of children Over the top, extreme violence and gore

The following are base prices for regular work: .03 cents per word for a max of 1.5K words 500 = 15 USD 1,000 = 30 USD 1,500 = 45 USD

I am willing to go over my 1.5K word limit but for an extra .01 cents to the OG price: 2K = 80 USD 2.5K = 100 USD 3K = 120 USD

Anything with NSFW will be subjected to a price increase of .02 cents to the total word count.

Meaning 1.5 K words = 45 USD + another 30 USD (.02 cents x 1.5K = 30) = 75 USD

I also set up a Ko-fi . My commission info is there too, and you can donate some money if you want to, thought it's absolutely not necessary, as I'd prefer to take commissions.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you can't commission, I would deeply appreciate if you could share this post so I can reach as many people as I can to try and help me out in the coming weeks.

I know this isn't Harpy Aloy but I would love to see your pictures of Aloy holding the shark and Beta next to her but since she isn't as strong she is holding a smaller fish

Chaotic duo🦈🐟

Some Teenytallos

I like to think Kotallo was a holy terror as a child

Trying to fall asleep in summer is much like the dilemma described in Katy Perry’s hit song Hot N Cold (2008).
