[id: fanart drawing of Lockwood & Co books. Lucy’s pressing her forehead against glass of the ghost-jar, and is looking at the ghost inside. Skull’s ectoplasm forms an exaggerated rubbery face that presses back at the same side of the glass, he’s talking to Lucy. the jar stands on the table covered with thinking cloth, there is a steaming mug and pen on it./end id]

simply cannot ever resist what i call the little mermaid or the tin man or the pinnochio plot, the one about a character who is either inhuman or human but outside in some way, constantly searching for whatever it is that they consider to be the quintessential proof of humanity, preoccupied by it so deeply that they fail to realize the proof is in the act and fact of the search itself

gotta be honest I think a REAL juicy dynamic is when someone has a True Love and a Soulmate and they are two different people

see this person is the love of my life I would follow them anywhere every day is brighter for having them in it. and THIS bastard shares a soul with me we’ll find each other in every universe and understand each other in ways no other living being could. neither of us are particularly thrilled about this

ilya constantly jealousybaiting shane is one of my top five favorite things about him, especially before he finally cracks & tells shane that he loves him . he’s like a big fluffy cat showing you his belly like :) so soft :) i kiss you so gentle & tease you & look after you :) & then shane reaches for the belly with fascinated reluctance & ilya goes SCRATCH >:3 what if i greencard marry my old friend i used to fuck more often than you >:3 & shane’s eyes go so wet & shiny & his jaw is clenched . & some raw, young part of ilya heaves a big sigh of relief to know that even if he can’t make shane love him, at least he can affect him . & then as soon as he learns that shane has turned the precise, devoted attention that makes him a legendary hockey player onto ilya he has that flash of holy shit . he is going to love me forever in a way that no one but my mother has ever loved me & i am never going to be the same . & every ounce of tension in his body just evaporates & he melts into a puddle under shane’s hands .

@tallsinspace AND ILYA STARTS CRYING !!!!

Yuna and David having watched their autistic son be so isolated all of his adult life and never having a happy relationship or close friends who understand his anxiety and then finding out that the man they’ve spent a decade hating on his behalf can casually talk him down from a panic attack in less than a minute

Yuna whispering ‘since rookie season’ and David adding ‘the summer before’ as they try to wrap their heads around the fact that Shane has been understood for YEARS in ways they never knew about.

I love that they got to see firsthand how well suited they are for each other emotionally, within an hour of finding out that this asshole womanizer they’ve felt nothing but disdain for takes care of their son in a way they’ve been terrified no one ever would. And it’s natural and it’s easy and it’s been going on for all this time

stories with the most KUDOS, BOOKMARKS, COMMENT THREADS:

work i’m most proud of (and why):

  • Shadow & Sunlight: at a mere 2,100 words, would you believe this involved a spreadsheet? it started as a one-off, then a double, and then kept growing until i realized it needed an actual plot and an ending. technically, it’s the most “chapters” i’ve ever done, and up there in terms of the number of view points. i think in another life, i would have done the 21k version of this, but i’m proud of telling a story that, in many ways, i’ve wanted to tell for a long time.

work i’m least proud of (and why):

  • bath bomb: This was a super fun collab with @sciroccoorion35 but also just a quick one-off drabble that wasn’t necessarily me pushing myself or trying something new.

share or describe a favorite comment you received:

  • Will you be my Freudian slip? is probably the most chaotic, unhinged thing I’ve ever written (and I’m also quite proud of it, thanks to @sciroccoorion35 for the prompt) and the comments got equally unhinged as it unfolded. @thelittlemissmisfit was a true MVP of cheering this along and @justice-for-skull left probably my favorite bit: “skull has nothing but his anger, poor guy doesn’t even have a dick” which really encapsulated the series this became.

a time when writing was really, really hard:

  • honestly, being in academia, it’s tough out here. really all i have time and brain space for creatively are drabbles, which is frustrating. my creative writing completely dropped off this past semester, when i started my phd and experienced insane burnout. trying to get back in the groove this january. i feel like it’s important to keep flexing the creative, fun muscles.

a scene or character you wrote that surprised you:

a favorite excerpt of your writing:

It’s cold when he kisses her; terrifying too, like jumping into the Thames. She plunges under, losing her breath, everything going dark as ghost-lock freezes her in place. Yet it’s all perfectly crystal clear.
Then, warm hands wrap around her, Lockwood’s mouth on her neck like white hot fire. The spell cracks open and it feels like coming home, shadow and sunlight intertwined, enveloping her in their embrace until the stars burst and she’s falling, floating, flying.
Guided down by gentle caresses and sweet words, drifting towards sleep in Lockwood’s arms, she softly gazes at Skull.
“Never leave me again.”

how did you grow as a writer:

  • i wrote a lot of different ships this year and a lot of different dynamics. it was nice to try new things and also really tighten up my writing with the drabbles. it’s made me a faster writer as well, which is great for my academic work.

how do you hope to grow:

  • i would love to do a fic longer than 5k again 😂 as fun as these drabbles are, i do want to push myself to tell bigger stories and not be so scared to get out of this format that i’ve become so comfortable in.

who was your greatest positive influence this year as a writer (could be another writer, beta, cheerleader, etc.):

  • i’m cheating a little here. @justice-for-skull and @ohmyoverland have been with me since the beginning and they get their hands on pretty much everything i write. i couldn’t do it without them. i also have to shout out @sciroccoorion35 because she’s directly responsible for 3/8 fics i wrote, and stepped in to cheerlead when justice-for-skull and ohmyoverland were busy. i owe all of these ladies a lot!

anything from your real life show up in your writing:

  • lmao no

any new wisdom you can share with other writers:

  • try to write a little every day and change up the genres you’re writing in.

any projects you’re looking to start (or finish):

  • i’m in the middle of two drabble series, I Need Sunshine (Heated Rivalry, Scott/Kip) and All the Way (People You Meet on Vacation, Alex/Poppy). i am already nervous that i’ll bail on these. i’d also like to do something for Ilya/Shane if i get the right idea. is this the year i’ll finish my locklyle engagement fic? (probably not.)
