I’m doing a mini-writer’s retreat with my writing group and am working on A Porn Star’s Guide to the Holidays with the intent to post it for Christmas in July (and Hoseok’s Jack in the Box album 🥺 💜)!

During a break, I went back to thinking about what I can do to make this site a more welcome place for me. I get so overwhelmed every time I come here and the endless doom-scrolling I have to do to reblog content and even support my moots goes against the distraction-free lifestyle I’ve been building for myself.

I’ll likely either make a new account under my pen name or revamp this one’s content, trimming down my follow list to a very few. I’d also like to talk about and reblog more content about writing in general, eventually integrating more of my original writing progress. I’m still thinking on this since I know this started as a bts/kpop blog, but I’ll post to the void when I come to a decision.

My 2022 project list, in order of my plans to complete:

🖊️ A Porn Star's Guide to the Holidays

I intend to post this on January 16th, but anyone who has been following me for long enough knows never to trust me with dates. It's been difficult to write and I'm doing my best.

🖊️ In a Sky Full of Stars

@propinqxity you have been so patient with me and I swear to you it will pay off. This simple idea has turned into a full-length novel passion project with at least one future sequel. My author's heart is on full display in this story.

🖊️ Eternium

Commission. A short (hah!), smutty, VERY LOOSE Hades and Persephone retelling.

🖊️ Two Fins Up

Collab. Rich boy Yoongi, dirty from boat-engine repairs, fucks a mermaid. That's it, that's all I want from this.

🖊️ Éffleurer

Yes, I will continue this story as a fanfic and post it to completion on AO3.

Yes, it will come after the other projects listed.

Yes, it will take me a long time to finish the remaining 18 chapters.

Yes, I will put as much heart into writing it as I always have.

While I work on these fic projects, I'm also drafting my first original novel, a vampire fantasy romance tentatively titled "Our Dark Below". I'll also hopefully be starting a new, challenging degree program in the fall.

Some of you know I live with varying degrees of mental and physical health issues, in addition to life's curveballs. All my goals and planning can never account for those. So y'all pls be patient and flexible with me through 2022. And I'll do my best.

  Always writing,

Thank you! We are doing ok, just taking it one day at a time. And yes, I'm definitely still going to be posting A Porn Star's Guide!

I'm in the middle of a career change and, in addition to a 6-week class at the end of last year, I took a state exam in December, another in January, and am studying nonstop for my third and final one that's in just over a week from now. Combined with the rest of my life, writing has had to take a back seat while I sort out my shit. Once this exam is done, I'll be back into it, and hopefully the story will be released soon after that.

This ask is from December...😅

My late ass, at least you're having plenty of time now to cope with The Wedding Arrangement. Thank you so much for reading it, it's still my very precious child and it makes me so happy that you enjoyed it!!
