Hello I just wanted to let you know the “it’s insanity, but…” fic is one of my favorite fics of all time. Ive reread chapters like two or three times a year since 2020 because I love it so much. Your writing of kids and the platonic brofriends that are Stiles and Scott are something I cannot live without. I’m on my 2nd reread of the year and feeling sufficiently overwhelmed and just wanted to gush to you about it. Thank you for writing it, I will treasure this fic forever ❤️
thank you so, so much! as someone who LOVES re-reading favorite books or fics, it is an honor that my fic has hit "re-read" status for you. you are too kind!!
that's one of those fics where I have the next three chapters planned out in my head but just not quite enough time to write them. one is actually half written-- one day! maybe during a vacation or something!

Hello, I don‘t want to put any pressure on you or anything, I‘m just curious as to whether you have plans to ever write a third part to Turning Tides? I just reread it and thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask. I completely understand if there never will be, I‘m not expecting anything and thank you so much for writing in the first place. 💚 I hope you‘re doing overall okay in life.
Thanks so much! Unfortunately, although at one point I had an outline in my head, I never wrote it down so I barely remember what was supposed to happen... the troubles of being a fanfic writer!
Thank you again for the kind words-- I am doing pretty great in life, though my job doesn't give me nearly as much time to write as I had in grad school, so that's my only regret. One day I'm sure the hobby will swing back around though.
I hope you too are doing well!

Hiya! Wanted to let you know that I just completed a frenzied reread of your "A Turning Tide" series and it's still one of my favorite fic series of its kind! I'm super glad to see you're still active in fandom and writing :D hope you have an excellent day!!!
Thank you so much! That's so kind-- I love that people are still reading my old fic and finding enjoyment from them. Gives me a reason to keep them posted!

idk if you’re aware already but there’s a very popular wolfstar fic called marginalia that is really similar to your fic defiance and progress
You know, I think someone else tried to tell me about this at one point and I started reading it and, sure, there are a few similarities with stiles/remus' backstory, but I don't think there's enough there to really panic or get upset about it! They added a lot more different things! Similarities happen sometimes in fanfic-- I've decided to be flattered rather than upset!
Thanks for your concern though, it's sweet of you to think of me!

has anyone else ever had a fanfic that just... haunts them? like it's been months and maybe even years since you read it, but it just lingers with you and you can never truly leave behind the imprint it made on you? and maybe it's just a single line, one sentence that you can't shake off, that takes up residence in your mind and stays there, feeding into your psyche and subtly influencing your brainspace and maybe even your writing or other works?

idk like if you're unironically saying there's more evidence of Taylor Swift being gay than Bruce Springsteen bc she wore a pink and orange outfit once I think you might just be deranged

I feel like I’m going to go to my grave without figuring out if Dr. Horrible is deliberately a condemnation of the geek-flavored version of toxic masculinity that would, years later, play a significant part in the resurgence of open white nationalism and the like in America, or if Joss Whedon is just a dumbass who wrote an extended callout post for himself on accident

sorry but I am officially a joel miller apologist. the fireflies knock him out & as soon as he regains consciousness marlene breaks the news to him that ‘yah sorry you’re never going to see your daughter again bc the surgery is lethal. but here’s her knife as a keep sake <3′ i’m sorry marlene but u thought that was going to go over well? you thought the insanely dangerous and firearm proficient man was who obviously bonded to ellie was going to go calmly? she should have sent ten men to escort him out. thirty. she should have just shot him in the head while he was unconscious. but of course she underestimated how much he cared. what he would do for ellie. bc she knew mean gruff self serving survivalist joel not father joel. she didn’t even let joel and ellie say goodbye to each other. was planning on killing ellie without even telling her for an experimental procedure they had no proof would work. didn’t even give joel the option to see her one last time. “would u kill 1 person to save 100?” they didn’t even allow a fourteen year old the agency to answer that question. team joel
