Hi! Hope you're doing well! I was reading your TTOI fic on Ao3 and I was curious if there are other ones out there floating around? Thanks in advance!

Do you mean if I’ve written any others like that? No, I haven’t. If you’re asking me if I know other fics for TTOI, I’m sorry to say that I haven’t been in that fandom for years and wouldn’t be the person to ask about this.

for all you writers out there:

donjon has tons of generators. for calendars. for demographics of a country and city. for names (both fantastical and historical) of people, nations, magics, etc.

this site lets you generate/design a city, allowing you to choose size, if you want a river or coast, walls around it, a temple, a main keep, etc.

this twitter, uncharted atlas, tweets generated maps of fantasy regions every hour.

and vulgar allows you to create a language, based on linguistic and grammatical structures!!! go international phonetic alphabet!!!

AH OK i see i was wondering why i couldn’t find them anymore :( i rly loved them!! i understand not having them up there anymore but would u be fine with sharing them elsewhere if possible? it’s ok if not!!

Thank you for your kind words (and your interest! Nicely timed too; I was lamenting today how isolated I feel from fandom for one reason or another).

I ended up taking down a lot of my fics because there were multiple instances where my fics were taken by someone else and passed off as their own. Rather than risk having that happen yet again, I deleted all the fics I liked.

I’d be happy to share them, but I’d have to talk to you off anon (I think I have it set so anyone can message this blog? If not I’ll doublecheck and let that happen). I’d prefer to know the url of whoever I’m sharing it with!
