          	I would love to say I'm cranking at my drafts... but, unfortunately, not. Puttering about is better suited. 
          	
          	My mental health is improving but my living situation is still stagnant. I am still a caregiver to my parent and it is draining, as well as my new job which now works in 12 hour shifts. Hopefully this situation will improve over time. 
          	
          	This message is not to complain; it is simply to let those who still anticipate works from me know that I am working on them slowly, but surely. Here are some details:
          	
          	My new Drarry fic is still in the early planning stages but I definitely think it has potential to be as lengthy as my last one (Living in My Head) with improved quality overall (re: thank god). This one takes place after the attack on Hogwarts, a while after school's end. So this one will be in the 1990s timeline, with magic and book plotpoints relevant. 
          	
          	A new Merthur oneshot is in the works and mostly completed (3/4ths or so) which I am fairly excited about. 
          	
          	Lastly, there is the two continuations of my Back to Gravity Falls timeline: with one about Wirt and Greg dealing with the aftermath of The Unknown (prequel-only or told via flashbacks, still working that out), and the other focused on the Pines Twins and Norman which was where the BTGF story ended. 
          	
          	Now, there may be a Wybie and Coraline story later but it would likely be much shorter and I plan on prioritizing the other two first. 
          	
          	The lengths are still up for debate but longest to shortest will likely be Dipper/Norman, Wirt & Greg, and Wybie & Coraline. 
          	
          	I also have some miscellaneous things I may release here and there (like a Forrest Gump oneshot from Lt. Dan's POV I have never had time to finish) lol
          	
          	Hope this clears some things up. Feel free to ask questions if you have any. 
          	
          	May the light of the moon lead you pleasantly astray,

Hi! Are you all right? Hope so. So, I was wondering if you would give me permission to do a translation of your stories?
          
          History: Living In My Head || Drarry
          
          Language: Portuguese - Brazil

I’m honestly surprised that you are still on this app, most people who have been on as long as you have disappeared off the face of the earth. I’m glad though, your books are great 

deathbyinsomnia

@dracotheapple i have no life lmao besides even though I'd love to write "real novels" i just dont know if I'm ready for it yet. So i will remain here to channel my creative juices, otherwise. Thank you for your praise :)

DECIDE MY NEXT FIC!!!!:
          
          So... The creation bug has bit me yet again...
          (I know I'm in the middle of 3 fics but let's ignore that a sec orz)
          Would anyone be interested in me writing another Drarry fanfiction in a nonmagic AU?
          I have a really cool longish length "Victorian-era Circus AU" idea i reeeeeally wanna do.
          Or do y'all have another otp in mind?

@dracotheapple well to be fair i haven't started my next fic yet lol i decided to finish the ones I'm doing now before i do. I was essentially torn b/w Drarry, Geralt/Jaskier, and Arthur/Merlin but it's on the back burner for now. I do have another Drarry in the works I had inspo for the other day and dabbled on, we'll see. XD

 I love your nomag AU so far, so I’d read it. Though I’m a couple months late  : )

As much as I love the idea of making money from writing, having loyal followers pay for each chapter of stories they love than to buy a physical book bothers me. 

deathbyinsomnia

@deathbyinsomnia Like, don't get me wrong, I almost exclusively write fanfic. But that's because all of my truly original (imo) ideas are overshadowed by those stories you see 100 different flavors of on here. Like if I had a penny for all the shitty alpha x beta stories or stories glorifying abusive relationships I'd be rich.

honestly, i love the idea of people paying authors on here, but i find it funny that it’s mainly been fanfic that i’ve seen, rather than an actual story.

@deathbyinsomnia Plus the ones that i have seen use the pay feature are (no offense to them) cash-grabs. Unoriginal but interesting enough for people to buy the same story they could've read in 20 different ways on wattpad for free.

Why tf are all the stupid werewolf alpha x beta bullshit stories in the paranormal tag? Werewolves are fuckin supernatural THERE IS A DIFFERENCE!
          
          (Also that genre is overdone and garbage, honestly. The stereotypes in the genre go against all real wolf behavior and-)
          
          Whatever. Nobody even reads my posts anyway.
