thank you guys for being so nice that's all lol I appreciate you. I'm sorry I can't update as fast as I did when I was writing WNWN - I work a lot and a girl is trying to get into grad school (which is a truly demoralizing process lol). But even if it takes me a bit, I promise promise promise that I will finish "Futile the Winds"!
(also follow me on tumblr so you can yell at me directly if I don't HAHA @lady-pluto)

You returning is the best thing that has happened all year!!! So excited
persephonesgrace
for anyone that's interested: I will definitively be returning to "futile the winds" but I think I'm just going to like.. speed run it LMAO
Like originally, it was probably going to end up being around 150k words, and now I'm aiming for like a good sexy 75k. It will have a bittersweet (but ultimately happy) ending.
Posting this here to hopefully keep myself accountable el oh el

unless you want to just be done with writing it (which i think all of us would understand), please do take your time and write whatever it is you have to say! not to tell you what to do lol, but if i may speak for all of us, we love your writing and will take it whenever we can have it, no matter how long it is or how much time it takes

not even joking I reread your story every couple of months and I think it’s some of the best literature I’ve read. you are so skilled with nuance and exposition, every time I read your stories I feel like it’s the first time. thank you so much.
persephonesgrace
feel like I should just say that I have returned to my roots and am writing more Spencer Reid x reader stuff but on ao3 (bc they’re just a lot shorter and I don’t think it makes sense to post here).
It’s not a FTW update (so sorry I’m getting there I promise) but there’s a one shot and a 4-chapter case fic that I’m working on (both of which are also named after Emily Dickinson poems bc I am who I am lol)

^a case fic where the team is on the hunt for an ethics obsessed killer, but spencer and yn’s one year anniversary is coming up (also someone gets trolley problemed LMAO)
I know I suck for abandoning FTW for literally years but have this instead for the time being xoxo

HIII YOURE ALLOWED TO EXIST IN WHATEVER MEDIUM OR CAPACITY YOU NEED TO!! you’re such a wonderful writer and we would all love a continuation of FTW but this is your life and your story, and we are all happy for the privilege of reading what you’ve already published. if you published a physical book, i’d read the shit out of it. i’m so happy to see you “back” on here, and i just hope you’ve been doing well during your hiatus <3

Hi author! I just reread Wild Nights and Futile for the millionth time and I get so sucked in even though I’ve already read it. We miss you and the wonderful story you created
ellegreenawaylover
just re-read wild nights for the first time in years and I am in absolute shambles. currently trying to read other fanfics but i cannot shake my brain away from your story. I don’t know if i’ll ever get over it. Wild Nights and Futile are better than most novels i’ve read in my 21 years of life.

Same, I cant find one that even comes close to the writing in these. It is some of the best things I’ve ever read, and I have read a lot! This was the first fanfic i EVER read, like I have not read fanfics before, and it messed up my whole week, it consumed all my attention and time, and i love it for it. I have tried reading others after wnwn, but none have even come close, sadly. I will check out those stories on tumblr though
persephonesgrace
omg stop wait I remember your comments from when wnwn was still being writtenI’m honored you think so highly of it!! Thank you for the kind words xx
tedsvodka
@ellegreenawaylover honestly same but also there are SO MANY just as wonderful on tumblr! imagining-in-the-margins, nereidprinc3ss, incognit0slut, homoose just to name a few users that have Spencer series/long fics where he's in character and have beautiful writing!
