Hussam's GFM is still extremely low on funds, so I'll be doing some fundraising for him! For every 5 euros you donate, I will write you 250 words. If you donate 8 euros, I'll write you 500 words. This rate is good up to 2,000 words! After that, every 10 euros donated will get you 250 words.*

Fandoms I've written for and will definitely write for: The Raven Cycle, Six of Crows, We Hunt the Flame

Fandoms I will NOT write for: Harry Potter, Marvel, OFMD, TLOU

If there's a fandom you want me to write for but I'm not that familiar with it, you can send me a DM and we can work it out! I'd just need some background so whatever you'd like to see in the story/characterization can be hashed out. Please make sure you DM me before donating so that we're both sure I can write for/am willing to write for the fandom of your choice. For artists: I will also write for your OCs if you'd like!

I will not write smut or anything NSFW.

You can send me proof of your donation and your request for a fic through DM. Please make sure to block out any personal information on your GFM receipt.

DUNE (2021) / DUNE: PART TWO (2024)

“One day, near the administration and registration statistics in Tehran, I found a pile of discarded omissions, full trash cans. All were women born in the early 1940s, which were photographed in their youth. The astonishing variety of hairstyles - only a minority of wearing a headscarf or veil - reflects the variety of options that worn by women in the late 1950s and 60s. One can see a variety of classes and individual women of that time, shy and modest, up, confident and glamorous. When I found these photos somewhere in 2005, I wondered if these women are alive died, emigrated or prolonged passes. It seemed to me that the government is likely to destroy the evidence of our recent and distant past, women in these photos are opposed to the current dominant culture. I was shocked that these records of our society could be thrown away so easily, without remorse. ” – Najaf Shokri. Not just beautiful, and the disastrous beautiful!

Life For Gaza: Each Cent Counts, Quenching the Thirst of Humanity in Gaza City

The Gaza Municipality is tasked with providing vital services such as water supply, waste management and sewage treatment. However, the widespread destruction in Gaza City has severely hampered the Municipality's ability to deliver even the most basic necessities to its residents. With limited access to water, the population faces a dire health and environmental crisis, especially affecting children.

By joining forces in this initiative, we cultivate hope and solidarity, fostering empathy and collaboration across communities while easing the hardships endured by those in Gaza. This collective effort reassures them that they are not alone in their struggle. The Gaza Municipality earnestly appeals for your support to help reinstate essential services, currently the foremost priority. In the northern regions of the Gaza Strip alone, over 500,000 individuals urgently require these services.

The Blue Veil, 1907 by Glauco Cambon (Italian, 1875–1930)

“Paul glanced at the other Fremen scattered over the sand beyond Stilgar, the way they stood without moving for this moment of personal prayer. And he thought of how the Fremen were a people whose living consisted of killing, an entire people who had lived with rage and grief all of their days, never once considering what might take the place of either—except for a dream with which Liet-Kynes had infused them before his death.”
