When you go away for work, too busy to spend much time reading fanfic and then get home to find AO3 is down 😩

Remember, you're under no obligation to justify yourself to anyone if you choose to spend the entire weekend reading a riveting novel, drinking multiple kettles of tea, and indulging in a scandalous amount of croissants.

need to quit my job to focus on my fanfiction

giving myself a gold star for this

Drop something HOT 🔥🖤🔥

Reading chapter 4 of this fic had me all kinds of 🥺🥺 So many emotions, and a bit relatable in some ways. And the “I’ll love you enough for the both of us Scully. Please let me try” at the end. All the feels. archiveofourown.org/works/205043...

Fanfic authors: anyone else receive random messages (maybe AI or bot) from randoms saying they loved your narrative (so vague) and want to create art for it and they can work with any budget. I write fanfic, my budget is $0 😂 Back in the day we made banners, avatars and fan videos.

The guy literally drops marriage hints and when he tells her he loves her she reacts with ‘oh brother’. May have been high but this pair are absolutely a big (slightly awkward) flirt and a champion eye roller. I love them. “Should we pick out China patterns?”

Visit home so watching The Lone Gunmen (X Files spin off) with my dad. Last time there was a baby they had to look after…of course named William - but not the William. CC and co sure do like that name! If in doubt, call the boy William 😂

If I could give any advice to anyone struggling with the complexities of what’s happening, it’s this: get to know ONE immigrant. Get to know ONE trans person. Every issue you think is complex becomes extremely simple the moment you love someone.

The Supreme Court sided with FWS. But it didn’t hear from a single trans person. This ruling sets a dangerous precedent and erases trans women from protections. It puts trans rights back 20 years. We won't stop fighting for trans rights 🏳️‍⚧️

After days of thinking ‘oh I really want to write something’ but then getting busy or distracted I finally sat down and wrote some of a fluffy Emily, Tigger and Roo epilogue. I’ve missed this fluffy little world. 🥰 I also have a much angstier fic in the works but finding the time/energy is hard 😫

Sometimes I think tv shows should have AO3 type tags. Just finished watching an ep that would have ‘main character death’ tag and 😭 I’d seen something about it so knew it was coming but damn. My eyes stung 😢

Just watched the first two episodes of Adolescence on Netflix. Some powerful stuff. I often find British procedural dramas a bit slow and not engaging enough but this has been captivating and compelling. The story, the storytelling, the subject. Worth a watch if you’ve not seen it yet.

Here's the thing about GenAI, LLMs, whatever tf you want to call the tech. There may've been reasonable ways to use it, but every one is nullified because: 1. They're trained off stolen work. 2. Running them is disastrous for the environmental. No potentially beneficial use excuses either...

Want to try and write this weekend. Should I try and work on: 1. IVF arc fic (Angst, Drama, romance) 2. Closure AU where Sam follows Mulder (family, sibling, time weirdness, some romance) 3. Emily, Tigger and Roo seasonal epilogues (summer, fall etc) 4. Some other idea? #xfilesfanfic

Had someone favourite a fic on the other fanfiction site. Couldn’t figure out which fic and then realised it was one I wrote way back in 2006 (I was like 16/17). 🥹 It’s kind of lovely knowing people are finding/reading some of my older fics. So: kudos/bookmark/comment the older fics!

New one shot: Scully’s Secret. Set sometime in season 8 but what if Mulder got returned much earlier, before it was obvious just how pregnant she was? archiveofourown.org/works/64160110

When you go and check your stats page on AO3 and notice one of your fics has over 400 kudos?!?! Absolutely insane (in a good way!) that so many people have enjoyed one of my ideas that much. 🥹🥹🥹

Ok, X Files friends I feel the need to share this. I’ve been ill this last week and today this surprise friend arrived from my sister. A Bigfoot that enjoys treats after a day of baseball. Maybe his friends are Mulder and Scully. Mulder would so try and pass a little Bigfoot off as a dog 🤭
