On tumblr and AO3 as ThirdEyeBlinking1982 Where ma xennials at? I'm an 80's kid who grew up with Harry Potter. I first read Philospher's Stone in high school and I was in my twenties when Deathly Hallows went to print so let's just say it got me through some stuff? So far that's the only fandom I'm interested in but life is long so who knows. Not new to writing, not new to reading fanfic, but brand new at writing fanfic. I was an angsty teen in the 90's (now I'm an angsty thirty something) and I love a lot of 90's music and culture. It's going to find its way into my fics because guess who else was an angsty teen in the 90's? That's right--every teen at Hogwarts. I like romance, hurt/comfort, plottiness, in depth characters and oh yeah ANGST. How many times can you say angst before it sounds weird? (Trick question. It always sounds weird. It's a dumb word.) Currently on the lookout for a beta, but won't be looking in earnest until I have a rough draft fit for the light of day. That said, if we have some things in common, I'd be interested in hearing from you and reading some of your fics so do drop me a line. I have a fuzzy line for mature content. The quality of the writing really makes a difference to me in determining whether smut is acceptable or not. Right now my favourite ship is Drarry, so it's almost impossible to avoid some, er, action? But there has to be a decent slow build, characterization and something other than that happening in the story plotwise. I think. I mean everyone has exceptions . . . I'll get around to linking my favourite stories eventually and you'll get a better idea. I've got a pretty busy work/home life and a few creative hobbies, but I'm hoping to really dive into this one for a while. It's been too long since I was excited to write something substantial. Thanks for stopping by! |
