does anyone wanna hold hands until we feel a little braver

[turtlesnails]

Y’all…. I have an update…. I don’t even want to call it a “Fanfiction authors curse because part of this was designed in a system to deliberately hurt people” but yeah.

Firstly, my country is falling into who-the-fuck- knows what? A dictatorship?

Secondly, I’m non-binary/intersex. I have a medical thing that gives me too much testosterone in my body. This is… something I’ve been coming to terms with in regards to my gender/my sexuality/ my chance to even have biological children. But now, everything, did a fucking 180. I can’t keep up with trans rights (being lost/ fought for) or womans rights because I’ve been fighting to keep my fucking job and ounce of sanity I have left.

Thirdly, I’ve had a chain of bad events happen this week.My boyfriend lost his doggo, which kinda also felt like my doggo to. She was such a sweet girl, but old so despite it being sudden, we knew it was soon.

My mom had an accident Thursday which may have been a chain of strokes. She is in an induced coma right now. Prognosis is positive, but also there is talk of needing to moving her to a rehabilitation home and that she might not have the same ability’s she had before.

Lastly, since I took family and medical leave yesterday, I don’t even know if I have a fucking job come Tuesday. Yesterday, they fired a bunch of people illegally. I work for the government at a science focused agency, absolutely adore my job in public safety. Specifically, we monitor flood predictions, floods during flooding, and flood damage after. We are out in the floods measuring things to get information to keep people safe. It’s important. I can’t stress that enough. It’s important to keep people SAFE.

I’m sorry this was a long message. I woke up because I couldn’t sleep. I just had to vent, and I’m sorry it was on here. To my friends/fans/lurkers, I’ve not abandoned writing, it’s just… had to do so right now. But, I’ll try.

If anyone wants to talk, or needs to talk, about anything at all. I’m here. My DM’s are open. ❤️

Stay safe everyone, I’ll update you once I know more.

The worst part of Alex's life is of course the murder attempts. The second worst part is that half of the people trying to kill him wanted to fuck his dad

[turtlesnails]

maybe your fanfic doesn’t have to change someone’s life maybe it can just brighten someone’s day for a bit

So I’m sick; which means less time at work, more time for fanfiction but I’m also so sick and I can’t focus or stay awake long enough to write anything 😬😂 guess I’ll just eat my soup and go to bed 🤞hopefully I’ll feel better later.

I wanted to do something special on the day Alex time travled but I’m so behind with writing that the next chapter might just come out on that day instead 😭. Maybe next year 👀

Meanwhile, I got a bingo oneshot and a Multi-chapter story in the works. I also have one/one and half ideas done for whumptober.

So yeah this month is busy and retrograde might be on the back burner! But trust me it’s still cooking

yes, I'm self-aware thank you

writer’s block isn’t real, it’s just your characters deciding to go on strike because they’re mad about how you’ve been treating them

My guilty pleasure right now is watching luxury hotel reviews and I found this british guy who keeps accidentally clipping into the backrooms.

He's unintentionally making the best liminal horror content on youtube

Reblog if you’re over 20 and still read/write fan fiction.

I’m curious!

Ah! To be a trans goon in an Alex Rider novel…#goals

Diversity win! Some of the evil goons are transgender!!
