Hey, friends! I know I've been quiet lately, but I'm really working on getting my sideblog set up. After the beginning of February, I'll be more active on this main blog. I've got a few completed stories to share with you guys and I hope to get more done soon!

Will requests open back up after you're done posting Now Boarding?
Thank you for asking this, anon! I don't want to bog you down with details, but I'm a planner and I believe in transparency, so I'll post a much longer explanation under the cut.
The short answer is: not at this time. Now Boarding took a lot of time to write (mostly due to writer's block), so it really slowed down my response time for requests. I still plan to reopen requests, but it will be some time before that happens.
Under the cut is way too much information about my writing speed and practices, but I want to be open and honest. Thank you again for the opportunity to talk about this, anon!
Okay, as promised, here are the details: In a good writing week, I can write roughly 1,000 words on a work day and 2,000 words on a day when I'm off work. With a 5-day work week, that's 9,000 words per week. My fics average out to 3,000 words each (depending on the story). That means I can write roughly three fics per week.
I currently have 13 open requests, so that's a little over a month of writing I have to do to catch up on requests. Not bad, right? Well, there are some problems:
Three fics per week is just the writing time itself, and doesn't include editing or formatting
Those 13 requests don't include new chapters of Gar Cabur or another series I'm starting, let alone personal projects
Sometimes, writing weeks are just bad, especially since:
A lot of people have left their jobs in my workplace and I've been regularly scheduled to work six days a week
The biggest problem, however, is that I am also trying to work on writing smut. I've never done that before, so I challenged myself to write a certain number of fics that include adult material.
(*These fics will be posted on an entirely different account - this account will only be for my SFW fics.*)
I've already written some of these fics, but I still have eighteen of them to write, which takes my total to-be-written list up to 31 - over ten weeks of writing before I even start working on Gar Cabur again, along with my other projects.
Now, I'm hoping things will change soon. Work should ease up in a few weeks. Now Boarding being posted means that I don't have the chance to keep re-editing it, so I can work more on writing or editing, formatting, and uploading finished fics.
By this point, you can see why I'm reluctant to give a definitive date that I'll be reopening requests. There are just too many variables for me to accurately estimate when I'll have caught up with the backlog.
Hopefully, this look behind the curtain hasn't ruined your immersion or made you think that this isn't something I enjoy. I love writing, I love being busy, and I am honored beyond words that people have trusted me to write their ideas. I am going to continue doing this because I enjoy it, but it is definitely taking longer than I wish it would.
Sorry for the information overload, but feel free to leave questions in the comments section or send asks for further updates as we go along!
So, as some of you may already know, I've been working on a private project for literal months. I decided I wanted to do something to thank all of the lovely people who follow me or read my fics, so I wrote a short series of interconnected one-shots featuring some of the 501st boys! Since I'm not great at naming things, it will just be titled Now Boarding.
It'll be ten chapters overall (including short intro and epilogue chapters), and I'll be posting one chapter every day. The focus will be on Rex, Fives, Echo, Kix, Tup, Hardcase, Denal, and Jesse, but other 501st troopers show up in the background!
Posting this series will be my main focus for the next ten days, then I hope to get back posting one-shots more regularly. The fics will be collected in a separate area of my masterlist since they're all connected to each other. Again, this is a short series, but feel free to request a tag if you're interested (even if you're not part of my taglist)! Or follow the tag 'now boarding fic', if you'd prefer!
Thanks for reading this update! I look forward to hearing what you guys think!
Hey, friends! I know I've been very inactive for the past week or two. My roommates and I are getting over a bout of the coronavirus, so things have been a little hectic and I haven't been able to summon the energy to post very often.
I am back now, though! I'll post an announcement about that secret project at the end of this week and I'll be posting a Ramble (like a journal entry, but with clone troopers in it) later today.
For those who have requests in, I promise I am working on them! Progress has been a little slow lately, but I'm hoping to put more effort toward them going forward.
First off, hi! Thank you for enjoying my work enough to follow me!
Second, you'll notice I haven't posted a ton lately. I'm finishing a secret project I've been working on for a few months. It should be posted in the next week or two! Until then, I may be a little spotty when it comes to posting.
Third, my requests are currently closed, but I plan on reopening them after I've posted my secret project and caught up with all of my current requests and ongoing series. Feel free to ask at any time if you can expect to see requests opening soon!
Fourth, despite the drama with Apple and the tagging system, I do my best to properly tag all of my fics because I never want anyone to see something they are trying to avoid. That mostly impacts Gar Cabur, my Alpha-17 fic. (His name is literally on the banned tag list!) If you use Tumblr in a web browser, you'll be able to read it without a problem. That being said, reblogs are more important than ever!
Finally, my links rarely work on Tumblr's app, but here are some of the ones you may want to access (with web links posted in case the problem is in the embedding process):

Hi, everyone! I know I'm a little early for this, but I wanted to get it out of the way: I'm only making one (1) resolution this year, and it's to put more emphasis on valuing my time and effort.
I have a bad habit of putting everything I have into things that don't matter (mostly at my job - this is not a Tumblr callout post!). I work myself into exhaustion keeping up with self-imposed deadlines and get frustrated when I can't uphold my own high standards.
Part of this resolution is closing my requests like I did last week. It sucked and I felt super guilty about it, but I need a chance to catch up on my to-write list.
The other part of my resolution is that I made a Ko-Fi account! This is not me asking anyone to tip me. In fact, this post is the opposite: if you aren't in a place to offer financial support, please don't.
My Ko-Fi is there if you want to throw $3 my way, but if you don't want to or can't, I want to reassure you that my content will remain free. I will continue writing and posting fics regardless of whether anyone donates. In fact, I have some really cool stuff planned and I'm excited to see where 2022 takes us!
Will you write more for Curl? Maybe smutty?anyway I look forward to more of him
Hmm. Mmm. First off, thank you for this ask, anon! It's weirdly timely and I apologize for the giant answer I'm going to write.
So, I've never written smut. I probably won't ever post any on this account because so many of my followers are either under 18 or prefer not to read explicit things.
That being said, I recently made another account with the intention of writing and posting some adult material. Like I said, I've never written explicit stuff before, so I know I need the practice!
If I ever get comfortable enough with the quality of my writing there, I may bring in some of my original characters. At that point, I'll share the account with any interested (and 18+) people here.
All of that being said, I probably will write and post about Curl again on this account in a less mature sense after I've caught up on current projects. I really do love his attitude!
Thank you, anon, for letting me talk about a current project and I'm sorry for the novel-length answer!
