Time for a new pinned post! ✨

Hi, I go by Wendy (She/Her) and I'm a fanfic & original fiction author and also a historian. My username is a reference to the Wondrous Wisdomball which is owned by Khadgar from Warcraft.

On this blog you'll especially find content relating to World of Warcraft (both Retail and Classic), Control, Alan Wake, SWTOR, and other various video games. I also talk about my OCs sometimes.

I have participated in a handful of fanzines and you can find those pieces in addition to my other fanworks on my Ao3 profile. I enjoy talking about my writing process here. I tag everything to make sure my blog is easy to navigate.

I'm a notorious pun connoisseur so watch out!

I was tagged by @rangerzath for the Picrew meme. Now with the actual link ahfhdjajdjjdjajdj

I promise I'm not sad or grumpy, just tired. This is me without coffee in the morning. Tired, seepy. Wishing I could crawl back into bed. Regretting my decision to stay up late working on writing. The glasses are of course not accurate exactly but they were pretty cool.

I'll tag @pintsizeninja @sparkchemy and @chrisstarsong if you're interested!!

This commission piece was written for @a-flappy-bat who wanted Jesse and Darling working out some of their angst based on their complicated history. It takes place after the crisis with the Hiss has died down but hasn’t totally been solved. Jesse has a lot on her mind, including grief, frustration, and confusion with Darling’s behavior as we witnessed it in game. Thank you again for the commission! I hope you enjoyed it! It was a pleasure to work with you 💕

Just in case you haven’t heard, I’m currently open for writing commissions for Alan Wake and Control! You can find more information about them on my Ko-Fi or on my carrd!

So I had another hours long writing session where I worked on that part waaaaaay down the line towards the end of my Fictional CaseyWake series. Last week I mentioned how I’d watched the Shawshank Redemption for the first time and how it had left a profound impact on me, well… it’s still doing exactly that. Apparently I’ve had a lot of thoughts on my series’ ending burrowed under the surface.

But this time, the devil worked in me again and let’s just say I’m one of his favorite playgrounds

Thank you for the ask!! I love talking about my playlists. From my Fictional CaseyWake playlist:

April 2024 Update

This week I wrote ~10k words for Out of My Hands and Into Your Heart's sequel and drafted one of the final chapters of the entire story due to sudden burst of inspiration and energy. I've thought about the ending of my entire series off and on, but I hadn't yet put the ideas to paper until last night. Of course that's super down the road.

I'm in full swing with writing my sequel. I think in the next upcoming months, if not sooner, I'll be finished with it and ready to share it.

I suppose writing the Runaway Rabbit also did surprisingly take up a large chunk of this word count. It's deceptive when you're writing how word counts can just sneak up on you. I have enjoyed writing this story, and even though it's wrapping up soon, it's been a fun diversion to explore an idea to its conclusion. I've always wanted to write a sex pollen fic (shamelessly just gonna say that) because I always thought it fit the Control universe easily. There's so much altered material out there that can influence squishy mortals. I enjoy writing rom-com style novellas, and this was another joy to write. I'm happy with how it turned out.

There have also been smaller one shots I've worked on, other chapters for the sequel to the sequel, and other projects on the side. I've been working on commissions too which has been a fun experience, honing in on an idea and a specific scene with specific characters. It's a different kind of focus than how my writing can sometimes flow with my inspiration. It's been a huge help in training my writing skills, so I'm very gracious to have received the opportunities as of late.

As a result, I hit 100k words for the year, four months into 2024. Pretty shocked to say the least because it somehow hasn't felt like 100k words. As of today, I've written 104k words. This has been the fastest I've ever reached 100k in a year.

Thanks again Remedy for the brainworms 😊 and to everyone who has read my stories this year. The encouragement has been incredibly helpful and motivating. It's been amazing to focus on writing and I hope this energy continues as I march towards my initial goal and a new goal after it!
