sometimes i do words

haha hi anon, i'm alive! i just don't post on here anymore and i don't think i really ever will again--my fanfic era is over for now, i'm afraid!

thanks for checking in, though, i really do appreciate it a lot. i still get notifications from this blog every so often, from people liking a fic here and there, and it always makes me smile! this blog was a huge part of my life for a handful of years, it's wild to think that it started out as a collaboration blog with a couple of other blogs who ended up bailing after like a month lmao (zero shade to them btw, we never had any bad blood!)

fanfic really opened the door for me into writing and tumblr and writeblr specifically absolutely changed my life. i met some of my best friends in the world through writing (shoutout to @panda-noosh, who is absolutely 100% the reason why i decided to post my own fanfic in the first place and is pretty much the reason why this blog exists as is), i met my actual honest to god partner of 1.5 years on here through writing, i'm not kidding when i say it changed my life.

i'm leaving this blog up for as long as i'm active on tumblr, i'll still be responding to asks and stuff when i get them, and hey, who knows, maybe i'll have a surge of inspiration one day and post new stuff on here!

that being said, if you wanna keep up with me and my original work, check out my writeblr, @ghostcasket ! i'm not posting a lot of my og writing there atm but i plan to in the future, and that's where you can read the first part of the hallmark christmas boyfriends story and its sequel when i post it. i am very active over there though, so if you feel so inclined, please do come say hi!!

again, thanks so much for checking in, it was an excellent opportunity for me to give y'all a bit of an update on where i'm at haha. love y'all.

oh bby ! how exciting ! no need to be scared, we’re literally all just vibing and doing our best. as for advice, these are just things I did but maybe they just won’t work for you! there’s no one way to do these things, remember that :)

personally i keep my fanfic blog and my writeblr separate, because they’re 2 different things and they have different purposes so mixing them doesn’t feel right.

for a fanfic blog, don’t be afraid to self-promote. a lot. maybe start by making a post introducing yourself and who/what you write for, then consider opening requests? i’ve found that that ensures at least Some interaction with posts. obviously numbers don’t matter, but i’m also a writer and i know that having people interact with my stuff makes my day.

remember to write whatever you want. even if you do requests, you are by no means obligated to write every one of them. you do and write exactly what you want !!! the point is for you to have fun !

don’t be scared to interact with other writers as well ! (if you do end up making a fanfic blog/writeblr drop the url in my inbox !!)

i hope this helped ! i’m maybe not the best at giving out advice but if you want to talk over dms you can hmu at my main @tayluin or my writeblr @ghostcasket (this is still officially a group blog even though i’m the only one active here so i don’t have dms here unfortunately :( )

scout: @selinatherealname hey thank you so much !!! i can’t believe ?? i missed this ? but uh anyway! thank you ! this means the world ! i do still write, i think the next couple of things will be critical role related because that’s my hyperfixation at the moment lol. i have some requests in my inbox still as well that i WILL get to in time ! requests currently aren’t open, so i’ll politely decline this one, but keep an eye on my bio because it’ll say when requests are open again :) (i’ll also make a post about it hehe) 

hey thank you so much!!!! I loved writing it! sadly since then school has pretty much been kicking my ass and I find I have barely any time to write :( I have some things in the works rn but it's mostly for myself, idek if you guys would be into that haha
