Writing Update
Jun. 16th, 2021 03:08 pmI have yet to figure out how to use Dreamwidth for anything non-writing-related, apparently, but we'll get there...
Fandom
I just posted my first solo Lost Tomb fic, so I'm doing the writer equivalent of tap dancing on hot coals because new fandom jitters.
A Distracting Effort
Length: 4k
Pairing: Wang Pangzi & Wu Xie & Zhang Qiling or Wang Pangzi/Wu Xie/Zhang Qiling
Tags: asexual Wu Xie, Iron Triangle feels, post Lost Tomb Reboot, choose your own platonic or romantic reading, honeypot: Wu Xie style (except not really), Shenanigans, Humor, Cuddling
Summary: “Teensy tiny favour,” Hei Xiazi starts, with the kind of grin that says he knows he’s about to stir some shit and is looking forward to it. “I need someone to distract Zhao Ji and you” – he points at Wu Xie – “happen to be exactly his type.”
Wu Xie blinks. That’s… not what he’d been expecting.
Next to him Pangzi looks like he’s readying himself to bristle in protective outrage at any moment now and across the room Xiaoge’s relaxed sprawl has turned into something rather more threatening.
or
Hei Xiazi has opinions on Wu Xie's wardrobe, Wu Xie has opinions on interior decorating, Pangzi has opinions on Wu Xie's flirting and Xiaoge lurks protectively (and pointedly).
I've also got another Guardian fic that just needs a final edit - the Shen Wei learning abilities fic, which derailed into a full-on character exploration because of course it did - and have finally started writing the multi-chapter accidental marriage weilan fix it AU that I've been thinking about since I watched the show in March.
Original Writing
I just received my free author's copy of the anthology that my first published short story appears in, which was very exciting. There's something really quite satisfying about seeing your name and work printed in a book you might find in your local bookstore (you won't, because this is a fairly small press, but still).
I'll probably aim to write a couple more short stories this summer and look to get them published too before returning to my efforts to get representation for my novel. Will probably end up doing another editing pass on that too, though at this stage that's at least in part just procrastinating from writing query letters because they're The Worst.
