What's your favorite thing about your wip and why? For till death
How would you explain your wip to someone who knew nothing about it? - consider this practice for till death lol
Thank you for the ask! From this ask game.
What's your favorite thing about your wip and why?
I'm on the last few chapters of my first re-read. I love pretty much all of it. I love the nasty torment. I love the almost-dying-in-her-arms-x4. I love the fluffy moments. I love killing the bad guys. I love Eilis' little quirks, and my little gw easter eggs, and the little details.
I don't think any of it would work on its own. So perhaps my favorite thing is how well it all came together, despite having no fucking clue what I was doing?
How would you explain your wip to someone who knew nothing about it?
Ohgodohgodohgodohgod.
"You know that book I've been talking about nonstop for the past 4 months? Please forget it exists." 😅
On a slightly more serious note, that depends on the audience. Here on tumblr, where it's pretty clear what I write, it's not that hard. I could slap a few tropes, content warnings and representation notes on a dead dove sticker.
Disabled trans guy with a horrible past gets repeatedly tortured, and autistic ace non-girl with a horrible past patches him up every time. Hurt/comfort 🥺 Forced to watch 👀 Despite all the guilt and horrors, they fall in love 🥰 Heed the warnings!
Real life, I already wanna jump out of a window rather than mention it has a trans protagonist 🙄 And imagining my coworker might read the graphic noncon I wrote makes my soul leave my body...
I can defend Thorns. I can defend HmW. I can defend Glass Shards. They're "normal" novels.
But this one and Undeserved have been written pretty much only for the pain, and while I am still proud of the stories they tell, it's hard to explain — and I will have to find a diplomatic way to explain that half of the book is misery and graphic violence if she wants to read it 😅
"So I saw a really shitty horror movie, and I thought I could do that better..."

shopping in the big city with my cousin and grandmother was waaay more pleasant than i thought it would be. :^))) we stopped literally 8 different places and it was not a bit of hassle at all. i think the key to me having a good time is me being the driver and itinerary maker. and everybody else seemed to like it too. :^ <-the face i make when tumblr doesn't allow you to end a post with a parenthesis... for some reason..... they took my smile y'all. 😔
