Beyond These Trees by furiedheart

“I’m Chris,” the man said a little louder to be heard above the wind. The gate clanged as the man changed his grip, but it didn’t creak. It remained closed. “Are you okay up here?”

This Glowing Ember In My Heart by furiedheart

“Did you know I was an alpha?” 

“No.”

“And did I disappoint you?” Voice soft, Chris continued to pick at the table, the scratch of his nail on the metal doing nothing to distract Tom from his closed-off face, as if braced for Tom’s rejection.

“Hey, wait.” He felt Chris’s fingers at his elbow and stopped walking.

15) why did you start writing?

because the stories weren’t gay enough. i’m kidding (mostly). 

i didn’t really start writing fanfiction until i started reading fanfiction. i was reading all these works from an array of authors; some of them were great, others were…not so much, but i was excited at the idea that you could take characters that you love and create new scenarios and situations around them. as i delved more into fanfic, i realized that i had some stories of my own that i wanted to tell. so i did. :) 

17) if you could give your fledgling author self any advice, what would it be?

your imagination is limitless; don’t be afraid to go too far! 

24) have you ever become an expert on something you previously knew nothing about, in order to better a scene or a story? 

i would never call myself an expert, but i definitely know more than i ever did before about roman slavery, entertainment, and bathing habits. :p

FIRSTLY, congrats on the grade, babe. Secondly, fucking hell, like really?? What a noob. I would wait till end of semester, print that out and tape it to their office door. How obnoxious and high handed.

Thank you for this incredible response. I thought firstly was such a simple and common word. And my professor doesn’t even seem to know it’s a word.
