Been thinkin bout you Mel, hope you're doing ok. From Coward anon

Dear coward anon,

please don't be a coward. I am doing well. Almost 2 years at a new job, new mood, 95% happy. Still fat but meh. Finding a ton of new hyperfixations. Sticking to none. How are you? I will try to be more present now that I am in a better brain place.

GUESS WHAT DAY IT IS!! That’s right!!! V’s first day off in a WEEK. Which meannnnnnns: VRQBT!!!!!!! I was noticing my hair has gotten long and has really nice waves to it these days today, so the question that is being bombed today isssss: what’s your favorite feature about yourself AND what’s a feature on someone else you love? (Physical or non-physical, don’t matta)

My favorite feature about myself is my sense of humor. Or the birthmark on my ear. Or maybe the color of my hair.

I miss you.

Favorite feature on someone else?

Um. I like when someone lights up talking about something they love, like a topic or something they are knowledgeable in.

I love Sugar Spring. I wish it was real. 😚🍬🌱

I don't know how old this ask is because I haven't been on tumblr in years, but I'm gonna tell you a secret. It is. It is real. It's not called Sugar Spring, but the name is similar and the place is very very similar to the town where I was born and raised. The school rooftop? Real. The copse of trees behind the church? real. The trail road with the old cabin from the end of the story? Real. Some other things mixed together to make other things. But I grew up in the most beautiful valley hidden in the Appalachian mountains. Over time, it has lost a lot of it's beauty and splendor, but my memory of it from my time there remains. The smells, the way the sun would flicker through the thick blue ridged mountains. It is totally real and I wish I could do it the justice it deserves.

More Than Life by @cattacodinosaur (rated Teen and Up, ~80k words)

summary: Rhett moves to smalltown Sugar Springs to get away from a painful past. Link lives in that small town contemplating his future while working at his parent’s general store. Link’s future is in shambles the moment Rhett walks into the store disrupting Link’s stagnant life. Rhett longs for solitude and has no interest in making friends with the locals. Link has no interest in grouchy hermits. Until an accidental renovation mishap forces them into each other’s company. Will the two learn that there is more to life than what they think they know?

So....hey. Remember me? I wrote this lil story like...in 2019? I don't even know if the community is still around or anything but in the VERY near future I intend to delete this story (and my others) from Ao3.

My weird pipe dream goal is to one day actually publish a story and the bones of this one have always stuck with me and made me proud of what I could write. I plan on reworking the story into a fully original work with completely original characters (so the two mains will need to be tweaked enough etc)

If you want to reread it or any of my other stories, I suggest getting around to it now, lol. (Although I will have them all on file so if there is a desperate need for one of my old fics, I can provide it somehow)

Recently it has also come to my attention that all this time (35 years) I have apparently had ADHD which was never diagnosed (thanks mom for not wanting me to be "labeled") to add to my dyslexia(diagnosed at 27), dyspraxia, auditory processing/sensitivities and other neurodivergent goodies. This makes my hyperfixations intense and my burnout extreme. (It all makes sense now)

The reason I mention this is I have every intention of completing this endeavor, it just might take me a while. But I also have intentions of keeping people informed of updates that might occur if they are interested.

How is everyone? I hope you all made it through the last two years. I noticed my last post was an early pandemic post.

depression is being alone in a hotel and eating two (2) 3 month old cinnamon raisin bagels from the unused pre-covid kitchen pantry while watching the oldest season of GBBO and critiquing their bakes.

#and that's after eating m&ms from the bare suite shop #and mixing multiple flavored drink packets into a bottle of water #just to feel the sting of citric acid and shame
