Hey hi!! I am a new reader, after falling in love with the Shout to my ex fics, I can’t wait to read more from your latest regency au fic! I really appreciate your writing, thank you for sharing it with us!!

Oh, you are such a sweetheart! I'm so happy to meet you @elenasreading! Thank you for your incredibly kind message. I hope you'll enjoy what will come next for the Jily Regency AU and everything else that my mind wants me to create and put out there.

I am loving Marigold mornings! I was wondering if you have already written all of it or if you are posting updates as soon as you write them ...? Because it's shocking that someone can come up with something this good in such a short time but on the other hand talent is easy to be seen in your writing and the words that you choose go straight to the point, you create images in just a few lines and honestly it seems just effortless, so this makes me think that everything comes from your heart and in a few seconds it's up on the net!

This is so kind thank you 🥺

Marigold Mornings and the multi-chap I wrote before We Can Still Be Friends are unique in that I am writing a story by linking together individual prompts people have sent to me. I am doing a bit of plotting ahead of time to make a coherent story but because I aim to write 2k-3k chapters I am able to write, revise, and post a chapter within 2 days.

If there were more involved plots, longer chapters, etc I'd write further ahead before starting to post. But I'm just having fun with these, not stressing about writing too far ahead.

I’ve missed your James ♥️

He's missed you too!

[chdarling]

@elenasreading now I’m imagining James going through and rewriting all of Snape’s POV chapters, à la Emperor’s New Groove:

(just imagine it’s a stag not a llama lmao)

I have a doc with all my favorite lines of yours, but I don’t need a doc to remember these, these are forever in my mind:

They all exhaled her soft little laugh; they all thought his name, or perhaps murmured it, the whisper passing through the crowd like the wind amidst trees. Maybe they all loved him, or hers was enough for all of them. (MY FAV CHAPTER ON PLANET HEART)

He understands the impulse to freeze this moment in time. It catches in his throat, the happiness of it, and surely that delight would hold firm even to a photograph; it spills unbound in the air, curls like her hand against his jaw. (I can’t whit these two, I just can’t)

When term begins anew she will necessarily go back to being studious, hardworking, deadpan Lily. Always in control. For now let her practice; let her flex and curl into this made-up character a little while longer. Something new every day. (Tmwysl Lily speaks to my soul)

Hey suze! I hope you’re well!! I was wondering, what are iwnma james and lily up to right now? Can you tell them to stop living in my mind? Thanks a lot

awww hahaha elena <3 my deepest apologies, i cant believe theyre doing this to you

in my head they're always in three separate parts of the story (i.e. during p&p summer because there's always a risk i will write something more about then lol; after the end of iwep/france; random throwaway post-harry ideas that occasionally occur to me) but in that happy middle timeline they're probably skipping through orchards in the south of france or something, which is hopefully good news to you!

[thequibblah]

Hi Suze!! I was wondering ... are we going to know when you're updating CT or is it gonna be a surprise drop? You know, I need to mentally prepare

hi hi!! i think sheer relief will make it so i NEED to be like “guys don’t worry it’s coming on this specific day,” so you will probs have warning haha. honestly i haven’t been able to make as much headway on it as i’d have liked in the past couple of weeks, so I just don’t want to put a deadline on it now and stress myself out when work has hit a surprisingly crazy end of year stretch (should be illegal)

[maraudersftw]

claudia I had missed the last retribution chapter, how could that happen, how was I able to stay one month without that incredible chapter??? I love Retribution sooo much, thank you for updating 🥰🥰

Ahhh you're the sweetest for leaving me this ask! Thank you so so much 💗 I'm excited to share the next chapter with all of you!

[thequibblah]

Acid trips is incredible, I loved it!! Thank youuu! I missed your writing, come back whenever you want I'll wait!!!

ahhh you're so sweet elena, thank you!!!

[thequibblah]

Hello incredible human being, can I ask for a snippet from chapter 52? I have just finished re-reading chapter 51 for the FIFTH time lol

FIFTH

wow for your penance, some mary wiseassery

At present they all, one by one, turned to look at Mary. She blinked. "What? Why are you— Oh, look, all the wizards I've been with have used Muggle protection anyway."

"Black used a—?" Doe began, then clamped her mouth shut with a gasp.

Germaine's eyes were the size of saucers. "Black, like Sirius?"

"No," Mary said, deadpan, "Black like one of his inbred relatives who wants me to fuck off and die."

[thequibblah]
