Heyy, so, I'm the anon that asked about Julie! Yeahhh, I LOVE that fic, thank you SO much, and Im really happy she'll be around more! I love her lots lol. Soo, anyway, question...I tend to have a lot of ideas, and I'm technically a writer, but writing is too hard for me to manage with other parts of my life right now, so I have countless ideas that always come to mind, and your writing inspires a lot of them too! Which makes me wonder if maybe you'd maybe be up for me being a slightly annoying anon who sends requests and feedback and ideas often cause I really appreciate your work? I should come up with an emoji that suits me...maybe..⭐️? If you choose to accept, anyway hehe. Anyway, really appreciate you, and hope you have a good rest of the day! Byeeee. Waitt, actually, sorry, my memorys appauling, but quickly remembered something. Do you know any other writers that write sicfics and have medical student/doctor/nurse, etc, ocs, or just ones that have lots of medical knowledge! Honestly, Ive wanted to be a doctor sonce I was a kid, and have always related to those characters because of that, so would love to find more! Anddd..one last question, Im curious, are you a lifeguard, considering how much you know about them? And if not, where do you get your first aid training from? I guess thats technically two questions...but only if the first one isnt affirmative...so, 1.5? Lmao..anyway, thanks, sorry for the rambling 😭, byeeee
😊 aw that's so sweet, I'm glad you're enjoying my stories!
Welcome ⭐️! I would love for you to be a presence in my inbox! I love thoughts, comments, ideas etc any interaction is hugely appreciated :)
Okay, other authors who have medical people. As far as I've seen, no one else is really using the lifeguard/first aid approach, but there's lots of doctor/nurse/med student characters out there!
@lisupandowntown has her Medical Boys Jer and Drew, love her writing and those characters for sure
@bellysoupset has doctors Jonah and Wendy, love her characters and writing so much! will always promote her stuff, Jon is a personal favourite
@secretobsessionstuff's Madix and Meteo are both doctory in some manner, I think med students or residents? They definitely touch on the trauma associated with a role in the medical field in some of their later works especially, which I think is very realistic and always liked that approach
Maddie had a med student Scott, but she comes and goes on Tumblr, her works are mainly archived here but she does really good platonic relationships that are always fun
@emetoandotherthings has a bunch of medical characters, let's see... Eden's a med student, Aleks is a nurse, Damian did something medical-y, Aiden's a nursing student, Zara's in medicine. Est has a ton of characters, and I fell in love with them early in my sickfic explorations, they are currently mostly inactive, but still a fun read
@writing-whump has Melissa, who's kind of a newer character in their world, but she's a doctor
I'm sure I'm totally missing some. But these are the people who jumped to mind, who have main characters in a medical role. If anyone has other recommendations, please add them!
And on a different note, Yes, I am a lifeguard! I've been lifeguarding and swim instructing as a part-time job for years, and it's part of the reason the pool is so important to me - it feels like home. I have my National Lifeguard certification, and swim instructors obviously, but in terms of first aid, I have emergency first aid, standard first aid, CPR training, and training to teach emergency first aid. So yeah, any first aid situation is based on my own training, knowledge, experience. Anything inside a hospital is very much *crossing my fingers let's hope this is at least somewhat realistic*
