Hi Bill.

i’ve been writing since i was ten or eleven years old, but it took me a long time to become comfortable with “publishing” my stuff for other people to read.  for as long as i’ve been doing this, i’ve never been accepted into such a supportive, loving, generous, friendly community as this one.  i write as stress relief and as a break from long work days/socializing, but you guys make me really, really love writing, and that’s a feeling i haven’t had in years.

i love and appreciate all 1500+ of you so, so much.  you make my days brighter.  every message, every reblog, every like, etc. means so much to me.

that being said!!  i want to thank you guys for reading and reviewing and sending me the most uplifting and motivational words!  (i’ve seriously met some of the most wonderful and kindest people in this fandom.)  

prizes are as follows:

merch from either clipping. OR teerico valued at $40 or less + 3-part series of any pairing/character of your choosing (prompt/scenario/etc.)

merch from either clipping. OR teerico valued at $20 or less + 2-part series of any pairing/character of your choosing (prompt/scenario/etc.)

merch from either clipping. OR teerico valued at $15 or less + one-shot of any pairing/character of your choosing (prompt/scenario/etc.)

rules are:

you must be following me (obvs)

likes don’t count sorry :(

you’ll need to be ok with me knowing your address to send you the prize!!  also if you live with your parents they’ll need to be ok with it!!

“are you still working on that fic?” last edited: 24th January 2005 “haha of course”

that feeling when someone comments

planning a fic down to the words you’ll use without anywhere to write it down and getting home and remembering none of it

it’s just a fic no one will care about inaccuracies *spends four hours researching a 2000-word one-shot*

grammar

*sees word in advert* yes that’s a good word I’ll remember that word *never uses word*

my last four fanfics are centred around this character and while it means their characterisation is perfect, people are yelling at me

“oh you write? can you name a character after me” “ummm”
