i'm still at soup

the hardest math of all is basic addition </3

hi! my name is jess. or idiopathicsmile, that works, too. i’m creator and head writer of sci-fi drama/comedy podcast the strange case of starship iris. i’m working with an agent on adapting a long-form extremely AU fanfic called world ain’t ready into an actual YA novel called pretending to date gabe novak. 

also, one time i wrote a fanfic about bucky barnes and captain america coming to terms with modern bananas. barring unforeseen circumstances, this is probably the piece of my writing that will have the widest impact on the world. (oops.)

world ain’t ready/pretending to date gabe novak is set in 2006, which is when i was in high school. (yes, i am ancient. my bones are dust. i speak the long-forgotten languages of trees.) the thing is, i’d like to write more YA novels, but i can’t keep hiding behind the whole “setting a book during the time when i was a teen makes it ~historical fiction” thing forever.

at some point i need to write about modern teens.

@thewillowtree3 asked me to collaborate in a celebration/well-wishing-fest for @threehoursfromtroy and her wonderful Korrasami fics, and of course I was happy to do so!! This is an arrangement I made of the music in the final scene in LoK (aptly titled “The Legend of Korra”). 

[ For anyone interested, the original track is up on Jeremy Zuckerman’s Soundcloud page here: https://m.soundcloud.com/jeremy-zuckerman/the-legend-of-korra?in=jeremy-zuckerman/sets/from-the-legend-of-korra 

 If you’re feeling nostalgic I’d definitely check out all the Korra stuff he has on there — it’s all previously unreleased material and the man is a genius, I absolutely love his music!]
