Wow, oh my goodness. This is one of the loveliest messages I’ve ever received. Thank you so much for not only reading and enjoying my work, but for all the kind words. My biggest dream as a writer is for my work to connect with people, so you’ve definitely made my day! ✨

My Abby is so precious to me! It’s funny, because I honestly don’t think she is who I’d want to see in canon (Evil Abby, you will always be famous, be free girl!) But as I sought out to explore Mel and Langdon’s story through Abby, she just came to life in this way. Perhaps it’s because I have some personal experience being the piece who didn’t quite fit the puzzle, but I have loved receiving so many comments from readers celebrating how real she feels. It’s the best compliment a writer can earn, in my opinion.

I am currently halfway through writing a follow up! It’s Mel’s side of the story, which has felt like more of a challenge tonally, as she is a firmly established character and I’m not sure I am doing her justice, but my Abby is very much present and I hope I’m able to pull off as much nuance regarding their dynamic as I did in part one.

HI DOLL, hope you’re having a lovely day

6. What’s your usual writing environment?

Various houses, usually—mine, my parents’ if I’m visiting. Currently, I’m at my brother’s!

I live adjacent to a college town, so I will also sometimes walk to the library or a coffee shop if I’m too comfortable at home and need to caffeinate and lock in.

11. Which fic did you do the most research for?

My wip!! 🌝

oh my gosh hiii of course!

2. When and where do your best ideas seem to strike?

THE SHOWER. I’ve had to start keeping my phone next to my towel so that I can poke my head out and type my ideas into my notes app before I forget them.

4. How long do you spend editing?

Tooooo damn long. I am a developmental/copy editor by profession, so sometimes I literally can’t read a sentence without dissecting it five different ways before ultimately sticking with what I had originally. And yet—typos still escape me 🙄

omg HEY friend :)

1. Which of your fics is your pride and joy?

I’d probably have to say wish there was worse to you—I am still insanely flattered by all the love it got in such a short time, and my abby langdon has become very precious to me.

I’d also include pool, because a good mother doesn’t have favorites, and pynch are forever my firstborns

8. Which wip are you most excited about?

(I answered this one in another ask, but I’ll include my answer here so you don’t have to jump): I’m currently 8k words into my wish there was worst to you follow up, and I will say that I am struggling a bit! The response to part one was so unexpected and lovely and I don’t want to disappoint anyone because it’s a little different tonally and I’ve yet to edit out all my bad metaphors, but I am loving this universe I’m building so much I’m choosing not to care!!

17. What genre is easiest for you to write?

Definitely literary angst or romance. I’m currently attempting to write/edit my first novel (attempting being the operative word), which is an adult queer contemporary with a romantic subplot that’s definitely more sad than sappy. I do enjoy challenging myself to write in other genres, though. I wrote an action/adventure short story that won a contest a couple of years ago that I’m trying to get published.

HIYA 🤗

The response to part one was so unexpected and lovely and I don’t want to disappoint anyone because it’s a little different tonally and I’ve yet to edit out all my bad metaphors, but I am loving this universe I’m building so much I’m choosing not to care!!

14. What are your top three most used additional tags?

Hurt/comfort, fluff and angst, and minor violence - LOL tracks

Hiiiiii!!! 🌻🌻

18. What’s a trope you want to write but haven’t written yet?

I’m a huge sucker for a famous/non-famous AU (and I mayyyyyyyy have started outlining a kingdon one? 👀)

I also really love sickfics - a playground of a trope for the pitt fandom!!

20. Do you listen to music while you write?

My fics are predominately inspired by songs or song lyrics and I listen to a lot of music while brainstorming or outlining - not so much during the actual writing process. Too many words circling around at the same time!
