WISHBONE WAS SO LEGIT.

what happened to your fanfics
Hey Anon!
A combination of things really. Mostly, I haven't had a ton of inspiration to write them. The scenes used to flow and these last few months I keep getting stuck. Also interest seemed a bit less, so while I enjoy writing it gets a tad disheartening when it feels like it's not getting read (Blame my ego?). The stories takes time and energy and I've been dealing with bad anxiety with a sprinkle of...depression sounds strong...but general feeling of 'meh' if that makes sense.
I have dabbled a bit with some original content but yeah guess a big ol' case of writer's block...
I have a story in the works I want to finish and it will probably be my last HWU/Pixelberry/Choices fic. I really love the stories and the characters that inspired them and I am beyond grateful for the wonderful support from the tumblr community. I'm not sure I ever would have gotten into writing without Alex & Hunt, and their devoted fanbase.
So there ya have it! I am going to shoot to have the finale out before the end of the year.
Thanks for checking in Anon <3 Wishing you all the best!
Cheers, A

videos like this are the reason i love tumblr
Aha, unfortunately I'm just getting into exam season with my first test in 5 minutes actually 😩 so I couldn't stay up. It's shame as well, seemed to be a good game, coming back to force OT. I got interested cos my brother went on a trip to New York in like 2019 and went and saw a Rangers game while he was there, then when he got back he tried to keep up with it. So then I also ended up watching but I obviously couldn't support the same team as him - had to pick a different team 😂
Ooof exams 😣 Can’t say I envy you. Hope the test went smoothly and that you got to relax a little this weekend! Wishing you luck on the rest of your exams!
Yeah it’s making for a good series! Deciding game tomorrow, should be a real nailbiter 😱
Hahaha good reason as any to pick a team! That’s cool! Glad you landed on a Canadian one 😉
That's cool! I ended up going for the Maple Leafs pretty early on in the season and that's turned out to be a good choice haha. Though it's a bit difficult to catch the games cos I'm over in the UK and we have a single channel that shows NHL, which means only one game gets shown each night. And when they are on it's usually from midnight till 3am - luckily I'm quite a night owl but yeah... it can get a bit much 😬😴
The Leafs were a great call! They're doing awesome this year! I, alas, cannot cheer for them because ~rivalries~ (jk in the end, I hope for a Canadian win over a US team any day...bigger rivalry i guess 😉). And based on my hockey pool standings I probably should have picked them haha
Woo! Cheers to a fellow night owl! Impressive dedication. Here I swear it's on every other channel. Hope they play/you can catch the Leafs-Habs game tonight 😊
Out of curiosity, what got you interested in watching?
I don't want this to come across as a stereotypical "oh you're Canadian so you must watch hockey" but I've been getting into it recently and I remember there was hockey involved in February Festivities 😅. But yeah I just wondered if you did and if so, which team you support 👀👀
Hahaha oh I 100% embrace this stereotype. My Dad actually started a neighbourhood hockey pool for the playoffs! And good memory! I quite enjoyed writing that hockey scene ☺️ Cool that you're getting into it!
My team would have to be the Canucks, however, since they are unfourtunately not in the playoffs, I'm currently cheering on the Jets (Who won last night in triple overtime!! 🎉🎉 )
How about you? Who are you supporting? 🏒🏒
something i wish i had realized earlier: you can write poems on the same subject more than once. you can write, paint, draw the same thing over and over if you want to. you can spend your whole life making art about oranges. i think i always felt this pressure to get it right the first time like i couldn’t go back and use that inspiration again. but you can. you can go back and revisit it. you can pick up the conversation again and again if you have more to say.
One time a friend told me that if she wanted to have a chill night she would come to me and ask for tea and a book to read. I didn’t like tea at the time, but I always made sure my cupboards had them in case she needed a quiet night. One time I told my boss that I loved oranges, but couldn’t peel them because of my nails. For a year he made sure to peel me one at least once a week. Once my friends gave me a made up superlative of “most likely to have a pen they could borrow” and ever since I’ve made sure I always carry a pen with me. A long time ago, my high school librarian told me that no one would care what my grade in my sophomore chemistry class was if I’m bringing them doughnuts and asking them about their day.
Sometimes friendship is about carrying pens and peeling oranges. But the point is, surrounding yourself with people who you want to do the little things for. The point of it all is bringing in the doughnuts because you’ve found the people who deserve the doughnuts.
And I’m so fucking lucky, and I don’t always say it or even think it. Because I have friends who send me letters and who told me when the cafeteria at work had chopped tomatoes and who want to watch Scream with me and it just hits me sometimes that this world can do the ugliest things to people, but as long as I still have a friend who will point out dogs on the sidewalks to me then I have something amazing to live for. And as long as I have pals who I want to make peppermint bark for, then I have a reason to keep pushing this world to be better.

Happy Trans Day Of Visibility! As a trans artist, I love our community and I love being trans, and I love how we come together and love and uplift each other. Even though there’s lots of hurdles we face, I look forward to the day when we can all rise up and celebrate our transness without fear!

Hiya!
Finally got my act together for a Choices Challenge (well sort of...I do apologize to @choicesfebchallenge for the under the wire timing!) This Alex and Hunt fic was inspired by the Day Seventeen prompt: Ring. This story is a follow up to my True Colours series (Part 1 here) as well as a loose continuation of my Christmas Time in the City series with my version of The Hunt’s. It follows Thomas as he tries to...reconnect with his family through a major announcement.
Warnings: None that I can think of—pretty fluffy, a bit suggestive at the end but that’s it. Words: 3800+
Eleanor frowned at the intrusive jingle of an unforeseen call—then caught sight of the name.
“Thomas, Dear. How unexpected!”
“Hello, Mother.”
“And to what do I owe this pleasure?”
“I’m in New York.”
“Even more unexpected.”
She spoke with the zeal of a gossip hound picking up a fresh scent. Thomas made an effort to relax his shoulders. “I was hoping we could meet for lunch.”
The most unexpected of all. Withholding her glee, Eleanor said, “I was to catch-up with the girls at the Club...”
She paused as if it were a pressing engagement—The silence grating.
“…But I’m sure they’ll understand.”
“So, that’s a yes?”
“Yes, Dear.”
“I’ve made a reservation at The Carlyle.”
“Oh, I do love their tea sandwiches.”
Thomas nearly cracked a smile at her delight. “I remember. See you at 1?”
“See you then.”
