#agdc

So here we go: My first WIP doesn’t have a definite name but for the moment, I named it “Au Gré du cœur” or “At The Discretion Of The Heart” and I will shorten it in AGDC (It’s almost ACDC!) and will tag this way in the future when I’ll brag about my WIP.

Au Gré du cœur

My writing is always focused on a character and how they will evolve (like a Pokemon but mentally). This WIP will go the same way because I just love character development.

So my MC is Léo, about to be 15 and just finished middle school. It's his last summer before high school but his parents drag him like every year to his maternal family's manor in the French countryside with no internet and a little village some kilometer away.

His mother family always gather there every year for some reasons that Léo isn’t aware of. But he will learn this summer that his family has some powers that they obtain from a ceremony and Léo has finally the right age to receive his own power. But what he will receive is definitely something he has no interest in at all, the power to cure.

He will have to learn to control and use his power alongside other kid’s families from all around the globe in a politically neutral place: Antartica. But there is one problem. His family was punished years ago for something that is forbidden to know. So Léo’s mother asks him to bring back the honor of the family.

And last but not least, Léo has a strange curse that appeared during his childhood. He didn’t talk about it to anyone and hope to find someday a solution. He is senseless. He can’t feel anything but his brain seems to react accordingly. He just… doesn’t experience the feeling.

So Léo will have to face a hostile world with scheming and plotting, trying to understand what happened to his family, learning his newly obtained power and cure himself.

What I hope you will think:

The end of my first WIP! Now it’s time for the second one!

The second one is named BAD (I’ll tag this way). It’s an acronym but I don’t like what I had chosen 6 years ago (omg, 6 years?) so the acronym is yet to be decided.

BAD

I wrote this story when I was in high school and I finished my first draft when I left my parents house to go study Japanese in Paris. I love/hate this WIP. It’s the first original story I ever finished BUT I lost my file when my external hardware broke for some reason I still don’t understand. When I left my parent’s house, I deleted all the files I had in their computer because I was “moving on”. Bad idea. When my hardware failed, I had nothing to back me up. It gave me writer block for one year until I found a way to retrieve an old version, not finished, in the depths of the house computer (but I could only screenshot it).

So after 3 years, I finally have the courage to look at my monstrous teenager writing and go for the second draft! 

So what is it about? It’s about a boy, Théo, who just moved in and must acclimate to his new high school. But poor Théo has some social anxiety due to some things that happened in the past and has a real problem trusting anyone. But this guy, Frédéric, is always around him. What does he want? Hurt him? Use him? Become his friend? Or more?

The plot is way more simple than AGDC but, hey, I was in high school, reading only fanfiction. It’s not like I wanted to write a series.

Sooo let’s go for my last WIP!

Au Fil des conversations

So this one is a fanfiction of Harry Potter and it’s a Drarry because it will always be a Drarry. I just love this couple. The title means “In the course of conversations”. It’s not an AU and it takes place 3 years after the last chapter (minus the epilogue).

Since it’s a fanfiction, I’m publishing as I write the chapters. So you can already read (in French) the 10 firsts chapters (100K+ words) on FanFiction.net here. I will use the tag “AFC” for this one.

I’ll write here the summary I gave there:

“Harry and Draco meet each other two years after leaving Hogwarts. They get in touch and step by step, a new bond is made between them. In the course of conversations, they will learn to know, trust and confide in each other.”

Aaaand it’s over!
