#ymaewk

When I began writing it, I never imagined life would so painfully imitate - and surpass- art. Given the number of you who have checked in with me in light of the fic, I am profoundly aware this is a shared sentiment.

After a lot of reflection and advice, I’ve decided to continue the story. But I understand completely if your journey with it ends here. For my own sake, I need to give the characters—and Liam—the happy ending they deserve.

Only a month ago, on twitter, I stated that my goal has always been to bring comfort, growth, and healing through my words. I truly hope I will be able to provide that for those who continue reading.

Over the next few days, I will be updating tags and disclaimers. I do not recommend beginning the fic at this moment, if you haven't already. However, if for some reason you decide to, please do so with caution. Ensure you read the pre-existing tags and disclaimers before chapters - they are already very clearly marked on the chapters that require them.

And at the end of the last chapter, it seemed to me that this slowburn would continue for a long time (not that I would be against it), but now that everything has started to happen faster and it still looks very logical and natural. I slightly forgot how I wanted to end this thought, but overall I really enjoyed this chapter. Well, all the chapters (of all works) before that, in fact, too.

Oh, and I also wanted to say that I really like how the writing style changes depending on the character on whose behalf it is written. Although YMAEWN's Harry is driving me a little crazy, because from Louis's point of view he is absolutely incomprehensible to me, and from his point of view, the amount of what is going on in his head is a little knocking down.

Ahhh I'm so glad you liked it!

Yeah normally I try to make sure the characters have different narrative voices but ymaewk definitely has the most polarising ones. It's getting easier to write for H, but it was really hard at the start because I knew what I wanted it to be like, but struggled to get there. I think that's one of the reasons I really like the chapter; I feel like I finally got the voice right.

Ah, thank you so much!! I'm so glad you're reading it and you like it! The support for it has been overwhelming, tbh. I was really worried about posting something after my first fic (like low-key having an existential crisis over it). So it's such a pleasant surprise that it's getting so much love! Anyway, thank you!

Hey.

I think 'currently doesn't have the best relationship with food' is probably the best way to describe it. But... it's not really food related, nor a major plot point or anything.

Hey! Thank you so much, and I'm so glad you're enjoying them!

I'm terrible at judging length. For a long time, I estimated that ychiits was going to be 130-150k long, and it ended up being 235k, and it had a full-fledged draft. (I'm more efficient with my drafting now).

For Save Me, I think there will be about 25-30ish chapters. It's basically 2 chapters per week in the lead-up to the wedding, and then a few more. (Which is kind of exhausting now that I think about it. Ychiits is only 31. Why can't I just write a normal-length fic?). In general, my chapters are around 6-8k words.

I think You, Me etc., will be even longer because there is a whole lot that has to cover. But idk.

Aw, man. That's a lot of typing to do.

What are your favourite fic tropes?

I can actually do better than that. Here is tiktok with 216 inspo photos for that fic lol.

I'm still ironing out my upload schedule deadlines but the new chapter of that one should be out within the next couple of days!

Favourite tropes are definitely exes to lovers and enemies to lovers which I think it's quite obvious in my fics lol.
