i’ve been lurking in this little corner of the internet for a while now, so I figured it was about time to introduce myself.
my name is kayli (she/her) but you can call me kay or ghostie! this is actually a side blog, so i follow from @bookishfreedom (and you can also find me on instagram at @bookishfreedom !)
❀ what i write
I write a little bit of everything, although most often fantasy and romance, and i always have multiple WIPs floating around. I’m really good at starting things, but not so good at finishing them… so I’m working on keeping one focus at a time
most of what i write is original work, but i used to be pretty into writing fanfic, and it’s something i’d like to get back into, if only a little. just as a low-pressure way to keep the creative juices flowing
❀ why I’m here
i’ve been writing for fun since i was old enough to hold a pencil, but i haven’t always been good at making writing a priority. i figure if I’m ever going to achieve my dream of someday being traditionally published, that needs to change
this blog will probably be a mix of things - writing excerpts, inspo, and whatever else writing related I come across :) hoping it’ll help keep me accountable, as well as being a fun way to track my writing journey.
and most importantly, I’d really love to make some writing friends 💖 so come say hi in the notes, i’d love to find lots more writers to follow and chat with. (i’ve never done them but consider me a tag game -friendly blog!!)
❀ my current (primary) wips
project birdsong - wlw romantasy (drafting)
• witch hunter x witch, enemies to lovers
• elemental magic
• lesbian mc & bi love interest
project red hood - low fantasy (outlining)
• loosely a little red riding hood retelling
• feminine rage, burn down the world vibes
• bi assassin FMC
❀ misc fun facts about me
I’m 24, bi, and recently diagnosed audhd
I’m a software engineer by day, and by night i have far too many hobbies fighting for my attention (incl but not limited to: reading, painting, video games, hiking…)
in college i minored in both german and creative writing (because i am an indecisive bitch at heart)
I don’t have any pets of my own, but at any given moment I am almost certainly fostering at least one animal!
❀ if anyone read all of that
you have earned my undying love and devotion. let’s be friends? 🥹 my dms are always open if you ever need someone to rant about writing with
back from hiatus ig???? guess who's finally done with being an undergrad : D
now that i'm unemployed free i should have plenty of time to work on my main wips which have been collecting dust for the past few months... haha pray for me while i make my transition and settle into post-uni life.
one last news !!! i'm now on vgen for future writing + translation commissions !!! will drop more info once i figure things out so look forward to it ><
i'm back for a bit! i haven't made as much progress as i hoped with writing (and i missed day 1 whoops) and i feel a little rusty, but i've just finished a writing session and managed to get 691 words in, bringing me to a total of 2,183 out of the 6,000 i have to write for my creative writing dissertation! i do aim to write more than that and i have 25,000 listed as my camp nano goal so i'm really hoping to achieve that.
i can't make a wip intro sadly as it is a uni thing and i'd rather not risk stuff and have it out here in a public space until i have it graded, but it's a project i'm super excited about and am frankly itching to introduce to all of you. i've also met with my supervisor a while ago and his feedback was incredibly encouraging and positive, and it meant a lot because i wasn't confident in my writing at all for this so it's good to know that i'm not doing as terrible :')

and i'm here to ask if anyone would be interested in me publishing a short story collection? :0 i'm still working on my main wips of course but i have a few short stories i've written in the past that are ready to be posted after a few edits here and there! the collection will also be updated from time to time when inspiration hits — i guess it's going to be some sort of writing dump for me? and a place to showcase my writing beyond my super short wip snippets rip.
if you're interested, i'd appreciate if you could either reply or put in the tags where you'd prefer to read the collection online (wattpad, ao3, directly on tumblr, etc.)!
crying and sobbing y'all when people said that you only add scenes that advance the plot they didn't JUST mean the overarching plot. they meant the plot of the book... entirely. like a conversation between two friends can advance the plot by characterizing them and grounding them with a meaningful relationship. if your book doesn't have "filler" it's missing emotional beats. which are plot. which are important. fun and whimsy aren't mutually exclusive from what "needs" to happen in your book. the advice isn't bad it's just taken too literally stop come back.
