the next chapter of the survival of us is officially underway! i’ve got a pretty busy weekend ahead, so i won’t promise an exact posting date, but it will definitely be out after the 8th.
          	
          	i’ve got about two months left in this semester (and more essays than i’d like to think about), so this fic probably won’t stick to monday weekly updates anymore. i’m going to aim for fridays or saturdays instead, but i’ll have a better idea of a consistent day once this chapter is finished and posted.
          	
          	and for those of you waiting on something new from me… i do have a couple ideas brewing.

i hope everyone’s been doing well i definitely miss doing weekly story updates, but i’ve also really been enjoying this time to focus on school and let my brain rest a bit. the break has been good for me.
          
          when i come back, my main focus will be finishing my two hiatus fics — Whole Again and The Survival of Us — before diving into any new stories.
          
          The Survival of Us should (hopefully!) start back up after march 6th with biweekly updates. i’ll share more details as soon as i have them <3

not spending a weekend writing flesh is so strange…

"Love wasn’t supposed to come easy. It never had—and Harry had made his peace with that long ago."
          
          This Flesh chapter is ruining me emotionally. I'm struggling to write it. </3

Oh my gosh I’m scared 
Balas

spam8105

@prettystylinson if it helps I'm emotionally invested because your writing style keeps me hooked. The twists and turns and just the right amount of angst

@spam8105 that’s absolutely what it is </3 i get so attached to my fics

Can you please I’ve been thinking about it for day but I don’t think I would succeed enough to do it can you make a story with the plot and the storyline of heated rivalry but instead of Ilya and Shane can you make it Harry and Louis 

KyleeGraceZelenka2

Thank you I would make it but I don’t think I’m good enough to do it and she’s my favorite writer so I feel like she could do it

Ooohhh that’s good.

as bittersweet as it is to end a fic, writing final chapters is always something i love. i'm a sucker for callbacks and full circle moments, and i can't wait to give that to you all wth Flesh. 
          
          if you didn't see my author's note on the latest chapter: the final chapter won't be out tomorrow. it's going to be a longer one, and i want to spend some time with it to make sure it lands exactly the way it should. love yall <3

I am excited to read it once you release it!

writers: do you ever hear a song you once tied so tightly to a fic and suddenly feel that ache that comes with realizing the story is over? because i absolutely do. i was listening to “a little death” by the neighbourhood and immediately thought of Breathing. god, i loved writing that fic. i want to rework it one of these days—but more than that, i just miss writing things like it.
          
          anyway—Flesh will be updated on sunday! i was aiming for saturday, but then i remembered it’s my birthday, and i will simply not have the energy to edit and publish LMAO

Laysialovesyou_

Omg breathing is my top three favorite fics you wrote. IT WAS SO GOOD. Also, happy belated birthday Katie! I hope you enjoyed it 
Balas

@prettystylinson Breathing was SO good. Actually, anything you’ve written is a favorite. Hope you have an amazing birthday!

Flesh being #1 in the larrystylinson tag right now is actually peak. Waking up to that made my whole morning.
          
          That being said, the next update might be out tomorrow. I officially start college in the morning, so it really depends on what I manage to get done tonight and how wiped I am when I get home. Either way, it will be updated sometime this week.
          
          Love you all.

@prettystylinson I think that’s why I like it so much, not that “boring-ass” trope-y structure (nothing wrong with that formula, just tends to get really predictable), I really enjoyed this more unique approach. 
Balas

prettystylinson

@girl_in_dirty_vans this comment genuinely made my day. i’m always so nervous about my pacing, i tend to make my fics longer than necessary because i don’t really follow the same structure as a lot of people. knowing that it still works for you (and that you’re enjoying it) means more than you know. :’)

girl_in_dirty_vans

@prettystylinson As it should be, Flesh is the best Larry fic out there! I’m always in awe of your craft. It’s one thing that you’re perfect in this witty style, but the way you structure & pace your stories is impeccable, and don’t even get me started on the character work. Congrats on the ranking!!! And I hope you get to enjoy college as well :3
