sacredpools replied to your post āIāve been getting better at finishing WIPs these past few years, but...ā
Even putting that aside, five years? Really? Iāve seen quite a few fics get updated after three or six years. The longshot Iām still lowkey hoping for is this one hp fic that will have gone 11 years with no update this August (the author said this was the exciting part theyād been waiting to write all along! We /still/ donāt know what kind of magical creature harry was turning into and why the elves were wary of him!) And if something isnāt working for you anymore itās perfectly fine to moveā
āon and write something else. Frankly the alternative seems like it would be never posting wips and only posting already completed works, which might work for some people but feels like a huge amount of pressure to me. And tbh I think I speak for more than myself when I say that Iād much rather get to read incomplete stories than never see them at all. Some of the best stories Iāve read are incomplete, and if the authors hadnāt posted them anyway I never wouldāve gotten to read them. So thatāĀ
āmuch from a reader-centric perspective. As someone whoās never posted written work online I donāt feel exactly qualified to speak from a writerās point of view, but I guess Iāve also heard people say itās valuable to post stories as you write them - for advice, for inspiration, for cheerleading, for engagement w/ the community, whatever. Not that I think youāre going to stop posting wips or even that Iād be trying to talk you out of it, but I guess this is something that Iāve thought about b4Ā
Honestly, yeah, the only time I publish already finished works is when itās a relatively short fic, up to 10k words. I canāt really manage to keep up the steam on a fic without feedback from an audience, but the flipside is that sometimes... I just lose interest. Either canon has jossed the premise of my fic, or Iāve moved on to another fandom, or I just get interested in a different idea, but mostly I just drop stuff because I get bored and Iām moody and I have too many ideas to work on all of them at the same time.
And I donāt even mind comments on old fics or on fics that have been on hiatus for long. But sometimes when I get a comment like this, I reread the old fic (that I have often completely forgotten) and I reach the point where I stopped writing, and Iām a bit bummed out myself that I never continued, because Iām curious about what would have happened next, and I know I left a lot of people feeling the same.
But also, like... Iām not going to change. Iām going to keep leaving behind a trail of unfinished fics, and my only comfort is that Iāve gotten a lot better about finishing things than I was before, and I have only been improving with time, so if thatās the best I can manage, then at least thatās something.
Iām subscribed to your wordpress, so I noticed you guys posted the thing about Mattās exes there earlier today. Does that mean that you couldnāt find a publisher [ :( ], or are you still looking/āin talksā?
Weāre absolutely still querying! It is a slow process though (any literary agents want to jump in here and save us all the emailing? Please? It is very stressful!)
The Tragic Tale of Mattās Exes is a bonus story we wrote in response to a prompt from the kind and brilliantĀ @vardasvapors first published on @fakemattrose (our Official Novel Blog) here.Ā
ā¦.We have a slight problem in that we cannot stopĀ writing side stories and at this point have a second novelās worth of extras that weāll likely be posting in the coming weeks to drum up publicity because we canāt shut the fuck up about our useless actor children. We will also, of course, take any prompts anyone wants to send!
Re: Dan Simmons Achilles/Patroclus, really? I never managed to finish Ilium but from my vague recollections I thought there was a part where they have sex with women who look exactly like the other one or something like right next to each other and I thought he was trying to suggest desperate pining? It's been a while tho, so I might be misremembering
ok i went and looked it up online and looks like i was misremembering slightly but:
(1/2) Hi, I'm sorry if this comes off as weird or forward but I don't know if you've heard the latest lj news so I wanted to warn you. They changed the tos and now apparently everything will be under Russian law and they may just randomly start deleting journals? I remember you had a bunch of commentfic, but I don't know if you imported all of your comments or entries to dw, and I mean theoretically lj could probably screw with the importation tool eventually.
(2/2) You have to agree to the tos to actually do anything including import stuff. Anyway I just wanted to let you know in case you weren't aware, sorry if you've already heard about this and I'm just bothering you
Hi! Ā Yes, Iām aware, though I havenāt said anything publicly about it anywhere. Ā Iāve been on Dreamwidth since it started in 2009 and everythingās been crossposted from DW since then (and was imported when I originally went over to DW), though I havenāt been importing comments on the regular.
At this point Iāve only been talking to one or two people on LJ still (I went back to journal blogging last year when I was having my Relationship Crisis and needed to sort through my feelings under an access lock where I controlled who saw it, but that was all originally posted on DW), and all my significant content is on DW. Ā Iām not deleting my LJ, Iām just, uh, going to let it wither away, I guess? Ā I donāt have the energy to make significant decisions other thanĀ āturn off the crosspost buttonā right now.
Though I just realized that most of the Warsverse links lead to the original LJ entries, which I guess Iāl fix manually at some point when I have the energy, sigh. Ā (99% of my Narnia fic isnāt on AO3 and isnāt likely to be.)

This is kind of a loaded question, but... have you read the homestuck epilogues? I was curious about any thoughts you mightāve had on them. IMO theyāre very... homestuck, for whatever relative meaning that has
Lmao lmao YES I just finished them this morning.
I enjoyed reading! But they were a confirmation of something I already knew about Homestuck, which is that it stopped beingĀ āfor meā as a reader some ways through Act 6. I donāt mean that in the general sense of, like, this story is nice itās just not to my particular taste for some mysterious reason, I mean more that the target audience royally shifted and did not take me with it.Ā
I am not personally invested in:
misogyny examined exclusively through the POV of misogynists in the form of flip-flopping between indulgence, guilt, and a charming lack of self-awareness
metatextual buffoonery that wonāt crack a grin but instead commits fully to the strawmen it createsāthis is a very compressed sentiment, but Iāve set a daily hour limit for my tumblr usage and I do want to be able to browse fanart later, so Iām cutting even more corners than usual. Basically, in a similar vein as Princess Tutu, being asked to examine problems of narrative bias as solely represented by clowning fictional narrators feels oddly like being assigned mandatory training wheels. Iām not saying it canāt serve a purpose, but it really feels like a dull parody of what was, for me, a lot of the pleasure of the earlier comicās more genuine, unstructured, unstable play with perspective and storytelling.
āWas Homestuck ever for you, Gogol?ā ā yeah, shut up.
1 and 18?
1) is there a story youāre holding off on writing for some reason?
DONE
18) were there any works you read that affected you so much that it influenced your writing style? what were they?
Pratchettās Discworld stuff had a huge effect on me when I was in my early teens. Honestly, it was kind of stifling since I tried wayĀ too hard to imitate it and everything I produced read like a mediocre pastiche of him. I like to think that now I have a better understanding of whyĀ his writing works and what tools and tricks of authorial voice are relevant to the kinds of stories Iām interested in telling so itās been reduced from wholesale theft to more of an influence, but you guys tell me! Who do I read like?
I appreciate @sacredpools establishing their not Matt (and hopefully not Not Matt either) credentials early, and I hope everyone in my inbox will keep this up as Star*Boys becomes more of a thing. I do not need Matthew Rose shitting up my inbox, that boy needs to get a hobby.
Weāre still really sorry about the trolling, Confused Anon and Only Person To Leave A Sincere Comment On AlienationĀ Anon (and I will love you forever for that). To make it up to you, June is gonna hit you up with the secret backstory to the Alienation comments i.e. the first part of the novel ever written, all the way back in 2016.
