I love predicting what the winner will be for the polls... and this month, the result was precisely what I expected - Gianna as the winner as to who would plan the most hardcore Valentine's Day planner (with Regan being second)

2025-02-17 22:19:48 +0000 UTC View PostIt's really such a fascinating thing, approaching Sutton and Charlotte essentially "for the first time" in a sense.
In Midnight Rain, it was an AU, but it's based on the TWW world, and their relationship and knowledge about one another is already pre-established. So, walking through their relationship with brand new eyes is somet...
2025-02-13 21:56:27 +0000 UTC View PostI can't believe I forgot to do a poll last month! Absolute insanity, who do I think I am?
This month is sheer curiosity - amidst the many HCLU romantics, who would be the most determined to plan the best/most romantic Valentine's Day date?
2025-02-02 22:55:41 +0000 UTC View PostSomething I've been thinking about lately, especially as we're hitting 5 years of Those Who Wait, and the publication of Midnight Rain is about giving the fancast a little... zhuzh, if you will.
The deepest thanks to posting this fancast of Sutton in the community chat - it really feels so hard for me to fin...
2025-01-27 22:43:52 +0000 UTC View PostThere's a chance that Charlotte might just be the best scene partner for every character. Who knows?

Even when politics are looking bleak, I really wanted to give a reminder that: you are not alone. If even just online - you have a community, you have people. Here, specifically, you have a ...

A little background on this - I (as I'd mentioned) have been a big fan of her art for a while. I decided to just... what the hell, I'll reach out and see if she'll do a little Q&A! If nothing comes of it, then it's no big deal.

2025-01-16 20:05:18 +0000 UTC View PostI've been chatting with the incomparable Jenifer Prince - a sapphic artist - about creating a piece for Midnight Rain (to debut at Cass Con), and she mentioned that she'd created a piece that had an uncanny resemblance to Sutton/Charlotte, then sent it to me.

Autumn and Maya were kind of difficult for me to really nail down for a fan cast, since they started as side characters in MR. I just had a vision of them as entirely made-up beings, ...

The holidays have always been a big thing for me, as I stated on my post for December's poll.

Currently, Monica and I are on a road trip for the next few days as we're going down to Florida to dog-sit for my aunt. And on this road trip, Monica has to/gets to (de...
2024-11-30 14:22:05 +0000 UTC View PostSo - technically, this is the poll result for the month.
I know that the Caroline/Hannah AU won, however - this Autumn/Maya story is going to be a much shorter endeavor. About 5-6 (longer) chapters, all things considered.
