Hello! Happy New Year 😊. I’m going through life admin tasks at the moment (typical January) and clearing out old notes on my phone, and came across notes I’d taken on STWS and TGR back in 2020/2021 and it completely took me back to those fics and how much I love them. Thank you for sharing those characters and their journeys with us! Hope 2024 brings you health and happiness ✨

I am obsessed with stws so i trust you and your amazing brain to pleeeease recommend me books with similar style please

Hello! I read so much I have a few recs for you although to say they're similar to STWS might be a stretch! I don't read a lot of romance? A few books I'd highly recommend in terms of writing style that I admire and aspire to though are:

Women by Mihail Sebastian You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Akwaeke Emezi East of Eden by John Steinbeck On Beauty by Zadie Smith The Weather in the Streets by Rosamond Lehmann In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado (trigger warning)

They're all thoroughly readable, and if you're someone who's usually not into reading 'older' things can I just say it's those books and that writing that fills my cup the most :)

Hi Kate!! I just needed to write and say thank you for putting STWS on public again. I love that story so much and it is still one of my favorite fics ever. The way you write has always been extremely captivating and how you discuss grief in it is exceptional. I hope you're feeling more love for your stories now!

Thank you so much! I need to build up the courage to read it again myself! I am determined to find my voice again and get Real Happy off my back - that story has been following me around for years now :D

idk if you’ve ever answered this question but where does your username come from? like is what’s the context? i luv ur user bc when i first found your acc I read it as “bullet down fics” lmao and thought it was cool

It comes from the Switchfoot song The Beautiful Letdown. There's a lyric that says 'and though it may cost my soul i'll sing for free' which hit me straight in the chest as a teenager and I guess I've never let it go! This blog is 14 years old now, and that's the only name it's ever had :)

Hello! Just wondering when will Twenty Good Reasons be available again. I just read Nina and Harry's story lately and I adored it so much! It would be so, so lovely to know more of their journey together.

Hope you're having a good day!

It's unhidden, you can read it now :)

Thank you for writing STWS, it was the only reason I created Tumblr. It's my comfort blanket. Will it stay unhidden?

Is Sail the Widest Stretch still hidden?? I didn’t think it was …

Hi I was just wondering if you were still planning on reshaping TGR? I would love to read again!

This is my bad, I haven’t had time to go through and unhide all the posts. But I will x
