Hey, I'm Sparrow, I write fics and used to post here; just leaving this up as an archive. I may still post over on Ao3, you can follow me there.

New work on ao3, and bye, tumblr.

Hey, FYI, I just posted a new Steve/Tony 616 work over on Ao3, the first fannish thing Iā€™ve written in a long, long time. Itā€™s based on another fic by @sineala, ā€œStraight on till Morningā€, aka the Star Trek fic. Itā€™s a favorite of mine.

I will probably post some more things over there. (And I just updated my profile on ao3 which still listed my old pronouns and in which I referred to myself as ā€˜cisā€™, yiiiiiiikes, oops)

I also think itā€™s super likely that I wonā€™t be posting here on Tumblr anymore, but Iā€™m probably not going to shut this down, either.

See you on the archive. <3

You can remap ā€œPASTE AND MATCH STYLEā€ in Scrivener to a keyboard shortcut. Any shortcut you like, but I just used the standard mac one.

System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts > Scrivener

Hereā€™s a link about it.

SHARING TO SAVE A LIFE BECAUSE THIS WAS THE ONE THING ABOUT SCRIVENER THAT WAS KILLING ME BUT ITā€™S FIXABLE

*finishes a movie* *rubs my little gay hands together* wellā€¦better head on over to ao3 and see what theyā€™ve got

I like that queer fanfic culture has looked at media and said ā€œyou spent millions of dollars on putting together some good AU ideasā€¦. Iā€™ll see what i can do with it.ā€

holy FUCK I am getting Scrivener setup and it is so amazing. Worth every penny so far.

I just backported the first three chapters of Against the Dark to a Scriv project, added an outline / doc placeholders for Chapter 4, and Iā€™m going to pull in all my research and notes into one place. THE WHOLE THING WILL BE SEARCHABLE AND BROWSABLE, I CANā€™T EVENNNN.

(BTW according to Scrivā€™s stats mode, if ATD was a printed book it would already be 221 pages šŸ˜³šŸ˜³šŸ˜³)

Also gonna fire up a doc for my original book, and my short stories, and maybe one for all my Tinker Sailor stuff as well.

AAAAH. ITā€™S SO AMAZING Iā€™M JUST YELLIN ABOUT IT TO ANYONE WHOā€™LL LISTEN.

the mad max fury road set sounds like a mass hallucination. immortan joe putting motivational posters everywhere for the war boys and being the group dad? furiosa teaching nux how to knit and nux knitting everyone christmas presents? max making bro-clets for half the cast? those two stunt-doubles meeting and falling in love while beating the shit out of each other? did a bunch of old friends just get together, have a massive, mad-max themed live-action roleplay and film it? or

bonehandledknife

juuuuuuuust about.

ā€œThe director didnā€™t have to look far to cast the role of the Warlord. On the first ā€œMad Max,ā€ he had cast Hugh Keays-Byrne as the gleefully psychotic Toecutter. At the time, the freewheeling actor had volunteered to help pull together a cast and, if Miller would just ship the bikes, heā€™d lead a three-day road rally from Sydney to the Melbourne set of ā€œMad Max.ā€ Much to Millerā€™s amazement, by the time they arrived, Keays-Byrne had transformed a loose band of actors into an authentic biker gang.ā€ (x)

fanfic => original writing: growing pains

Me:Ā (trying to use snowflake method to outline my novel) I really need a third act. I know how Act One starts, and maybe some parts of later books, but I need the first book to end on a strong note, and Iā€™ve got to sort this somehow. I think I need to do more work on the socio-political status of the kingdom, and understand how that intersects with the larger magical plot. Me: ... Me: ... Me: also when does my very good boy get to bone his boyfriend, and why canā€™t i just write that part

#writing#fuck#doing all the heavy lifting sucks and I want them to fuck now#lol#i honestly just want to write fanfic of my own OCs and not do all the hard bits#ah well#it will be worth it#RIGHT???#it better fucking be
