NEW and IMPROVED intro post!!
Hey there! I'm Alternative_Title! Call me Alt for short!
I am a 21 y/o agender aroacespec fanfiction author! I use They/It pronouns!
I've been writing on-and-off since around middle school. I've always been a huge lover of fanfiction, and of stringing words together into something beautiful.
This got rough, for a long while, and I stopped writing for a very long time. But I've been slowly getting back into it, dipping my toes into it with oneshots, (failed) attempts at long fics, and a lot of roleplaying.
This blog is a way to help me share my fanfiction with the general populace, gather feedback, and interact with my community now that I've decided to get serious about it again!
This blog USED to be a personal blog. That means not everything is writing related, nor will it be. There's simply too many posts to delete, and Tumblr has decided to break and not allow me to make a new account, lol.
With that said, please do not engage with me about system discussion, discourse, or anything personal like that on this blog, UNLESS I interact about it first. I am in the process of making sideblogs for all of that stuff, and you are welcome to dm if you'd like them. :)
This blog is meant to be a writing space for me. I haven't ever been serious like this about my works, and I would like to keep it as disconnected from my personal life as much as humanly possible, for my own sanity's sake.
I take requests!
But, as with all good things, there have to be just a few rules.
- NSFW and SFW are ALLOWED, but minors CANNOT interact with adult content.
- Dead Dove and Triggering Content are ALLOWED, with the exceptions of: successful suicide, eating disorders, and rape/non-con.
- I will work WITHIN MY FANDOMS. Most of them are pretty obvious on this blog, if you scroll around far enough, but if you don't know, feel free to send an ask or dm to confirm!
- Requests MUST be sent to my email ([email protected]), or, for an anonymous request, my strawpage (linked in the socials section). Requests sent via Twitter, Tumblr, or any other social will not be honored.
- I keep only three request slots open at once to allow myself breathing room and avoid burnout. If all request slots are taken, please understand that if you send a request, it may be forgotten by the time another slot opens up, as I have memory issues. If you want a higher chance for your request to be seen, save it as a draft in your email, and send it once a slot has been cleared up. (This rule may change at a later date, depending on how many requests I might get.)
Currently Open Request Slots: 3/3
I am looking for beta readers!
I do have two IRL betas for the current fic I am working on, however I am of the mind that more is merrier! People of any skill level can ask to be a beta reader, and will be added to a "beta fish" group dm on my Alternative Title discord account.
If you'd like to apply to be a beta reader, please send me an email with your username/nickname (ao3, Tumblr, or Twitter for proper crediting), what platform you prefer to use for beta reading, any other works you may have beta'd for in the past (if any), and your discord!
Betas will not be required to do any editing or reading for fics unless they have opted to take a specific fic onto their roster! Betas are not required to do any editing at all, unless you'd like to! Betas are, in my workspace, primarily for brainstorming and feedback about pacing, phrasing, dialogue, etc. If you'd like to have more of a hand in the process, let me know in the email!
