red_eris: Geralt peeking around a corner (Default)
[personal profile] red_eris posting in [community profile] displaced_dumblr_authors
So since my goal here is for people to continue to have the social interactions that are such valuable fuel for writers, I'll go first and do a little roundup of my current projects. Insofar as I'm spending much time writing at all.

My most recent piece, Greyhair, about Geralt the Witcher accidentally acquiring a cat, was gratifyingly well-received, both online and by the target audience, which was my kids. Though they did complain that it was too short. I've got two Witcher fics in progress, even though I don't know what I'm doing or what the hell my goals are even. One is a short smut piece that's mostly done, but the other is a wholeass story, at least seven chapters I'd estimate, of which I have about 2/3 of one. So like...why. Plus at least two more solid concepts for other longish Witcher stories. The series really just leaves so many good possibilities, technically speaking.

But I really feel guilty about my continued lack of progress on Little Fox, which I promised myself a long time ago I would absolutely finish. I've got to finish it, to prove to myself I can. But I'm like...halfway done and haven't touched it in months. I plotted the whole thing and lemme tell you it's good stuff but somehow plotting it all out took the discovery out of it? Sigh. I even replayed the whole game looking for inspiration, and didn't get it. The game and my story are just...too divergent.

Anyway, that's plenty to start with.

Love your work

Hey, Red! Loved your Geralt gets a cat story on AO3. And I'm thrilled that you've invited me to beta many of your Little Fox (Dragon Age) chapters! It's been wonderful to work with you each time I've beta read for you and you've beta read for me.

If there's less images here to distract us, the flight could be a positive thing? Maybe?

I'm trying to keep up hope. Your post was a good start, I'm gonna put up a WIP post too.

>> I'm a tumblr era fan baby despite my age.

Oh SAME!!

That's why it has me all upset, this whole puritanical fuckery, cause tumblr is where I started! I may have been 44 at the time but I was a fandom baby and tumblr became my home.
And now they set the carpet on fire in my home.
