Guide To Fanfiction Writing

Heathers (1988) dir. Michael Lehmann

your rewrites of the manuscript: 10/10, no notes (though the original version was also lovely, of course!)

the reminder that everyone else is being so productive while i haven’t written properly in far too long: -1000000/10, so many notes 😭

LMAO I had a very random burst of inspiration and decided to rewrite The Manuscript (again, lol) instead of working on my WIPs or my internship (haha I'm fucked).

I'm glad you liked it though! And I can't wait to read whatever you write...regardless of however long it takes you to post LOL.

Calling Hour Snippet

(Summary: Theo calls on Eloise.)

“They appear to be quite fond of insulting one another,” Benedict noted, a gleeful expression on his face.

“Indeed,” Anthony replied dryly, still struggling to process the lunacy occurring right before his eyes. Eloise had just insulted Theo, who responded by throwing his head back and laughing.

Dear God, Anthony realized with no small amount of horror, they were flirting.

Edit: Link.

WIPs are still works in progress even if no progress has been made on them for a while.

Theloise: 2x07

This scene occurs the morning after Anthony's "failed nuptials"...and also the morning after Eloise confessed her feelings to Theo and he set aside books for her to "share her thoughts on". I can't help but wonder if the book she's reading here is one of the books he set aside for her?

This scene follows immediately after, and it's obvious she's on her way to meet Theo (my girl's practically skipping lol). Perhaps she wanted to meet Theo and "share her thoughts" on the book she was reading? The book that he gave her?

It's always "hey, what's up" over dms and never: "I’ve read all of these and…I set them aside for you. I thought perhaps you might share your thoughts on them."

If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading
