Goth Twink that Loves the Colors Pink and Green

One out of five chapters in the first fic has just been completed! I'm going to take a break for dinner but I will continue working on it later tonight. If I keep up this pace, I'll have the first fic done by Sunday! I'm working on the fic I teased a few posts ago, and since it's named after a musical song lyric, I decided to name each chapter after a song lyric as well. And don't worry, any borrowed scenes from the Monster High comics will be properly credited at the end of each chapter that uses them. I have a friend beta reading it who isn't a Spellentine fan and she's actually hyped to read the rest of the fic so I take that as a good sign everything is going well! The fic deals with a photo album and memories associated with it between the two so there's a lot of POV switching and my main concern is seamlessly transitioning between memories, POVs, and what's happening in real time but also making it obvious who's eyes we're seeing through when read. I figured three spaces between scenes and switches would help that a little bit but I'm still a little nervous about it. I also planted a teaser for the second fic in the first chapter, so when I released it sometime this weekend or next week, keep an eye out for that hint. 😉

Chapter two done! Three more of the first fic left to go and seven of the other one! Also, I'm researching different cryptids and mythological creatures to put into the fics because of Valentine's volunteer job and I found the best one ever! A Shrimply. It's a giant shrimp and they named it Shrimply. Shrimply, my beloved. Why isn't that more popular?! Shrimply would be the best meme cryptid! 😭 It won't be in the fics sadly but I stan Shrimply. 😔✊🏻 Also, I will not be posting the chapters one at a time, the whole fic will be posted at the same time so please be patient. That's just my writing style. I like to go back and edit as I go, bear with me please. 🙏🏻 I posted a teaser for the first fic on my blog last night.

It's done! The first of the two fics IS DONE!!! All I have to do now is read over it, edit it, then publish to AO3! Thank all of y'all for your patience! I will post a link here on my blog once it's up, I'm going to try and do the editing tonight and have it posted. If you didn't see my other post sharing the total word count after chapter four, it was 13,380 words as of last chapter and before editing which will add more. I specialize in writing short stories, I've done writing contests with a strict 1,000 word cap, I never thought I would ever write this much in my life! I'm so proud of myself! I also ran a poll yesterday asking if I should make custom skins for the fics and y'all said to add those after publishing so I will update y'all when I get that done. Anyways, I have to go edit the fanfic, mostly add more details and make sure all the proper Monster High terms are used.
