Ghostwriter, rated E
Summary: With the ghostwriting job that pays his bills on the line, struggling author Aziraphale is given one last assignment to prove himself: Write a tell-all 'autobiography' of notorious playboy Anthony J. Crowley. They certainly don't get off to a great start, but with Aziraphale's job and Crowley's only form of financial support on the line, they'll both have to hang in there long enough to finish the book.
If Crowley's family--notorious in the seedy underbelly of organized crime--and the law enforcement investigating them don't get in the way, then the very real feelings that spark between them will.
Beta: @soapasaurus - Who, as always, has been invaluable from earliest brainstorming, to word salad fixing, to along-the-way problem solving. Thank you so much, you’re amazing and fun and I’m really glad we’re working together on things. <3
Notes: This work is a Good Omens Holiday Swap (@goodomensholidayswap) pinch hit for @thebasisofoptimism. As this giftee has been patiently waiting for this belated holiday gift for so long, I’m going to start posting it serially now that the work on this fill-in gift is pretty far along. I'm trying to hit two of the three prompts given.
Prompts I'm working from: 1. To read about first kisses and declarations of love is really nice always in any kind of setting. 3. Or how about a human AU that is not 'they meet in high school / uni'.
I hope you like it, @thebasisofoptimism!
The first chapter is now available on AO3. I will be posting the rest of the work quickly as my amazing beta, @soapasaurus and I finish polishing it.
