This coverart was commissioned for a novel-length fanfiction project that I've been turntabling in my head for a good couple years. I've put portions of it to paper (or Word, rather), and thanks to the kindness of many a pro bono editor, it's finally ready to peek its head out into the the light of day.
A YUGE thank you to my cartoonist buddy, "Buff," whose illustrative talents breathed some tangibility into the story via the featured image. There are many more acknowledgements to make, and they will come in due time, when the story is uploaded to fanfiction.net on Thursday, 6/15/2023, no later than 8pm ET. (The link to which will be its own separate post, on the day of.)
For now, I humbly introduce you to the world of this alternate Gravity Falls continuity with its summary:
A brush with time travel leaves Dipper entangled in a new mystery, while an old rival schemes from the shadows. Everything is different, now: he and Stan can't see eye-to-eye. There's more to Wendy than it seems. Mabel, as always, is the wild card, but it's Dipper who has to answer: what does he truly want? And how much will it change him?
Though this story is obviously meant for the fandom, you'll likely have a more immersive experience by re-visiting this small handful of GF episodes:
*"Time Traveler's Pig"
*"Fight Fighters"
*"Little Dipper"
*"Summerween"
You are welcome to DM me here, or for an even faster response, PM me on fanfiction.net. (My penname is Ricky Roma's Cadillac; https://www.fanfiction.net/~rickyromascadillac)
Until then, take a quick moment to favorite this and give me a li'l follow, that way you can be one of the first to know when the story's live!
So stay safe, sane, and Scooby-licious! (Whatever that means. I'm pretty sure it was the marketing slogan for a Scooby-Doo cereal once upon a time. And who doesn't like Scooby-Doo cereal? Only unicorn-hating communists, that's who.)
