Our New Hope looks a bit different this week, huh?

This is actually an entry to @silvereddaye​ ‘s Draw This in Your Style challenge! While there are a number of prompts, Silver opened the challenge to different scenarios based on the fan comic. 

I wanted to redraw a panel of The Tinies in the style of the Star Wars fan comic I make!

Here’s the panel this one is based on:

What fanfic of yours should everyone have read?

I don’t want to say at all that anyone should have read any fics of mine, but if someone’s looking to read my fics or look for a summary of them, then I think a good place to start/a core one is Sparks. It’s got a lot of angst, it has my tendency to worldbuild and expand uncontrollably in it, it’s got the sort of drama I have in all my fics... but it’s not as heavy or long (yet!) as, say Eclipse. And it’s also a focused fic on Luke, especially, my favourite character and the one I come back to write about time and time again, rather than my other fics which have a relationship as the core (e.g., Luke & Leia in Eclipse, Luke & Vader in The Beauty in the Beast or in The Heir). It’s a fic I’m proud of that encompasses most of the core things I like to write about except for fantasy AUs, but I have a lot more fantasy AUs that I want to write than I have written.

What is something you don’t like about your writing?

It varies from fic to fic. Sometimes it feels too dramatic; sometimes it feels too contrived or neat or forced, like I’m slapping you in the face with some of the references and comparisons I want to make; sometimes I worry it doesn’t flow properly; I overuse adverbs and semicolons and em-dashes and never finish my sentences soon enough -- and sometimes it’s just frustrating that my overwhelming urge, even when writing fluff, is to make it dark or angsty. Like I’m caught in the gravity well of a black hole and have to fight to bring light to my stuff xD 

That was a brief rant, but I do, overall, love my writing. I’m very proud of it. I wouldn’t do it every day, work so hard, and keep posting, if I wasn’t. And largely, I love it enough that I’ll reread it to entertain myself, even if no one else out there enjoyed it.

Do you write original stories as well?

I do! Did? It’s been a while. But I have a lot of original stories and ideas, 99% of which are fantasy and sci-fi (I have very specific tastes) and 80% of them are gay, with 20% being gen. One day I’ll get back to writing those, but until then, I don’t love any of my own characters nearly as much as I love Luke Skywalker.

Thank you for the ask, friend!!

Maul: Anakin Skywalker? I was expecting Vader.

Anakin *who has removed Vader's limbs and has been using them as bait to get Vader to talk*: He's having trouble getting himself together.
