THE MAEVE CHRONICLES UPDATE (aka that weird novel i wrote in 10th grade english class that people have been asking about lately)

I remembered typing it up the summer after 10th grade bc i wanted to put it on my website (which never actually worked as a website bc wix website builder was crap) but I thought I'd lost it completely bc it was on my high school email address which I no longer have access to

or at least i thought i no longer had access to it until i tried logging into google docs and it worked! so i quickly shared the doc with myself and made a copy in case my high school finally gets around to deleting my email account and/or i forget the password someday

TL;DR that weird Macbeth/Tale of Two Cities/Model UN research paper/Solarpunk Coming of Age novel starring a ghost that I wrote when I was fifteen is coming to AO3 at some point and thankfully I won't have to type every single handwritten page myself

#it's still so surreal that so many people want to read this old weird story that i wrote #i'm excited to have it online tho. like even if only 3 people read it (bc again it's my writing from almost 5 years ago)#it'll be cool to have something to point to when i bring it up in casual conversation and people are intrigued by the concept #also ngl even though the beginning is rough (bc i didn't know i was writing a book i was just answering writing prompts)#i'm actually still pretty proud of the ending?? like the entire solarpunk section has some nice dialogue and descriptions #and i think it ties things up pretty well #anyway i still have a few papers to write but you better believe as soon as i have time i'm making a throwaway ao3 account #and posting the maeve chronicles all at once #with plenty of author's notes about what was going on in my world at the time as well
