Your gateway to endless inspiration
23 and 30 for the fic ask game? :3

23. What’s a story you’d love to write but haven’t even started yet? This is an arc and not a story, but everything to do with pjo!Fyroah. There is nothing more I can write about him without majorly spoiling half the PJO au, and I'm not ready to do that yet. Insane. Cruel. Evil. I want to write about Fyroah.
30. Have you noticed your style change over time? A little! I like to think I've gotten better at cutting the fat from my prose, especially in the past year. There's also a phenomenon that used to happen a lot more, where I'd get so excited about a concept I would cram it in without regard for how well it actually fit in the work. I still do that when I draft, but I'm much better about killing my darlings now.

10 and 17 for the writer ask game
Thanks for the ask!
10. Is there a character or ship you'd love to write for, but haven't yet? I am exercising so much restraint to not cheat and answer K4yfour, I'll be real with ya. I'll say Feinberg. He's got a very interesting role in the PJO au that lets me show off a lot of the worldbuilding I've done, so that's exciting. I actually have tried writing for him before, but I haven't fully realized his backstory or character arc, so for now he is contained to the wips. I think he'll be really fun once I get him sorted out though. inspiration you want me so bad
17. What is something you recently felt proud of in your writing? Oooh, tough question. I like how I paced things out in Grave Digging. I really tried to tighten the story, give every word and action a meaning, but leave enough breathing room for the events to reflect on themselves and not rush through the emotional beats. It's also my first multichapter (that might get off the ground - sorry ISAT au, you weren't meant to be), which is awesome!

I also walked myself into a corner r.e. leaving out the context for Nerdi's big blowout scene because it's critical for everything else in the story 😭 dancing around the full scene is really kneecapping what I think I should and shouldn't include
I will say that Grave Digging's second chapter has a document 7 pages long that's mostly scraps of scenes
