March Madness
Added 2023-03-15 21:26:52 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
I was thinking about announcing this last week, and then I didn't do that because anxiety is hitting me hard lately. But I wanted to come up with my own version of this fun little fandom tradition and make it into a writing spree.
So below you're going to click on what you want to read most, and the stories that are in a similar % bracket will go head-to-head in polls that I'll post over the next few days to determine what I'll post first. They will be randomly timed with shorter durations.
I'll also be posting my regularly planned updates, so don't despair if you aren't seeing your fave on this list (and feel free to ask me about them. I'm leaving off BOE, SG, The Alpha Next Door, One Wild Night, the "So this is... St. Patrick's Day" update, and maybe a few others. The response to them is obvious based on comments and likes. Most of them were or are in the line up for March anyway, and some of the things on these polls might appear whether they're selected to be first or not).
There will be a lot of recognizable WIPs on this list, but also some other stuff (which kind of represents a fraction of things in my WIPs folder).
Most of the things are Supercorp, but there's also Swan Queen, Wenclair, and Avatrice because occasionally my mind will just spit out several thousand words at 4 AM for no reason.
The purpose of this is to kind of build up some writing hype and push me through some stress by distracting my mind with a lot of writing. I hope it's an enjoyable experience for everyone. 💙

I chose WTLGU too! The language is different and the pacing is chef’s kiss! The story really gives that “fated” feel to Kara and Lena’s love! I’m sure I’ll love whatever wins, but I’m glad it was just me that chose it!
2023-03-17 04:39:22 +0000 UTCWhat the Lightning Gave Us. 👀 I know I say this a lot, but I really need to finish up that update. I can put Alpha/Omega on there too (same problem with the symbol) even though it's a top tier patron fic. I love that one as well. Thank you - I appreciate the vampire-slaying and kindness. Sending the good vibes right back to you. 💙💙
2023-03-16 19:47:34 +0000 UTCThese things always feel like picking my favorite child 😂 I went with “What the Lightning” because we left off in such a !! Moment but I’m putting a note here too for AO (my phone doesn’t do Greek apparently Ope). The world building in that story just makes me giddy. Hang on there with the anxiety. It’s such a little vampire but we’re all here with the stakes and sun to help! Sending lots and lots of good vibes your way friend!

2023-03-16 06:21:22 +0000 UTCI'm already feeling pretty excited about it and hopefully some good things come out of it. Thank you for the kind words! It seems like Hot or Knot is a pretty popular one. Sometimes I can't believe I got to this place of so many WIPs (or that I've written so many one-shots like Hot or Knot that I want to extend). It's super hard when I'm writing a new story every month that I want to turn into a multi-chapter. But in a good way, even if I really want to finish stuff to make room for more new things. Thank you!! Looking forward to writing them.
2023-03-16 05:49:26 +0000 UTCHopefully it will be fun and I'm looking forward to seeing the first round of results. I feel way worse when there's a day that I don't write something. So in a weird way stress sometimes fuels me to write more. 😂
2023-03-16 05:41:41 +0000 UTCAww, cool, I'm so happy you like the idea. I didn't know if it would be fun or tedious to vote for multiple things. Thank you. ☺️
2023-03-16 05:33:46 +0000 UTCThank you. It'll hopefully go away or reduce to a normal level once a few stressful things are past. Writing is always enjoyable. You take care too! 💙
2023-03-16 05:32:13 +0000 UTCThank you, I appreciate the kind words! I slept for about six hours and now I'm ready to write.
2023-03-16 05:27:31 +0000 UTCWriting is a big help when I can't sleep. Thank you. 💙
2023-03-16 05:20:58 +0000 UTCplease take care of yourself, author-san! your health and well-being is priority. i'm excited about this march madness style so hopefully it helps drum up some excitement for you in a different way. there are many good ones in this but the one i keep coming back to is hot or knot so i voted for that. i'd been curious about a continuation of that (tho i honestly have wanted continuations for so many of your fics if only to be indulged further by all them!) so i can't wait to see how the bracketing goes. thanks as always for your hard work and looking forward to more of your stories!
