🍁 🍂 🌕 🍂 🍁 Hi, I'm Ainsley, or starlightelixir! Here, you can find me posting just a little bit about my writing, or even links to it. Or just babbling, I do kind of like to babble sometimes. For more information, check below! 🍁 🍂 🌕 🍂 🍁

Changing my username back means I have to redo my pinned OTL

Oh, I meant to follow this up with “obviously that Curse is chronic illness”. Bc holy shit. Is it a curse.

I want to say I have a curse following me bc I was going to participate in a (very chill) gamejam and got knocked down for a week and a half in One sitting with a really bad migraine. On top of other chronic illness days and other migraine days. I was the only person who worked on it+

🍁 🍂 🌕 🍂 🍁 Hello! This is my writing account! I love stories featuring timeloops, parallel/alternate dimensions or realities, and he supernatural/paranormal. I write a lot of fanfics, and you can find where I post and more information below!!! 🍁 🍂 🌕 🍂 🍁

Mm, I’m gonna redo my pinned here. I wanted to edit my pinned post on tumblr, but it tells me the post will shatter like a toddler holding your brand new iPhone in 2007 unless I edit it from a computer. So. I won’t be doing That until I’m at the desktop again.

When I said that I was going to take some time transferring old outlines and notes into Ellipsus today, I didn't mean that I was going to start replotting something I've been bouncing between since 2020??? Good god what have I done. Holds my head in my hands.

Art is one of the safest ways to explore your deeper emotions. Those big emotions will arise during your process, whether you intend it or not. Be curious about understanding them like you're curious about learning to draw.

I hope everyone else's Writing Month is going. Because I. Uhm. Yeah.

I was. Going to work on Fictober stuff. But now I'm 715w into a Very rough summary/brainstorming session for something I thought of this morning. God. Christ. What the hell.

Once again dropping a #SchoolBusGraveyard fanfic for Fictober! Is this late? Oh, god, it really is. Am I catching up? Yup!!! Slowly and steadily 🫡 www.tumblr.com/sociallyawkw...

I ended up insanely sleep deprived for a few days and wasn't able to write 😞 But I started catching up on Fictober stuff last night. I wrote two pieces, I'm gonna edit them today+try for two more and keep doing that until I'm caught up.

🍁 🍂 🌕 🍂 🍁 Hello! This is where I post links to my fanfics & talk about writing. If you've got a request, feel free to send it through tumblr's anon ask box! You can find me on...: Tumblr: sociallyawkwardseal.tumblr.com AO3: archiveofourown.org/users/social... Thanks for visiting! 🍁 🍂 🌕 🍂 🍁

I used today's Fictober prompt for a really short #SchoolBusGraveyard fanfic! www.tumblr.com/sociallyawkw...

Another Lumine (webcomic) fanfic for Fictober!! Enjoy! :D www.tumblr.com/sociallyawkw...

LUMINE (the webcomic) FANS. I'm back with a fanfic for you all. For Fictober. It's only on tumblr though, sorry. www.tumblr.com/sociallyawkw...

Thinking more about NaNoWriMo and all of that. Using GenAI/writing AI/art AI just. Takes the humanity out of the process. I love writing. I can't imagine handing what I write off to a machine to finish. I have fun writing. Why would I deprive myself of that enjoyment? Writing sometimes causes me--

Will this be it? Will the Spectrums technicians finally fix my internet?

There is something So funny about researching the "Corrupted Blood Incident" and login screens in World of Warcraft for a fanfic. I played WoW for all of like, 30min on my mother's computer, a character she let me make, when I was like... Ten. Mabinogi was always my thing.

Right after I posted my last, my husband asked if I wanted to lay in bed 😭 So I didn't get to keep reading. Whoops.

Anyways, tonight, I'm reading the novel for Josee, the Tiger, and the Fish. The movie meant a lot to me a couple of years back, when my husband and I finally got to watch it. It wasn't my favorite wheelchair rep in media, but it certainly means a lot, and I desperately cling to it.

Reading some tonight!! I rambled about it a bit on tumblr, but I'll probably post smaller bursts of thoughts as I'm reading here. Except for things like. Beta reading. What I'm beta reading for doesn't say "don't talk about it", but past "oh this was SO good", I would feel wrong saying stuff ;^^

Will I be able to do all of that? Probably not. I'm sleep deprived. Not to mention, I need a stupidly annoying amount of sleep every day. So. I'll probably get through studying, a little bit of reading, and then sleep.

In-general, I mostly want to read through more of my husband's book, maybe do a bit of beta reading, Bungo, and Pandora Hearts. I kind of also want to reread parts of SBG and also Lumine.

Taking one of those rare "not writing at all" days. I'm probably going to spend most of it reading. And also studying.

My computer screen has a crack in it 🫥🫥🫥

Anyways!!! Anyways. Weird stuff aside. Hi! I'm Ainsley. I write a lot of fanfiction for the webcomic School Bus Graveyard. I've been taking a pretty long break since last October. #SBG #SchoolBusGraveyard #Writing #Writers #Fanfiction #Fanfic Been awhile since I've promo'd myself here. Whoopsie.

I'm going to say this here, where I feel like what I jokingly call The Curse can't reach me here. Unfortunately, nobody from tumblr follows me here, so this is sort of going off into the abyss. Whoops. Tulip Petals, my Omori fic from 2021, is probably never going to be continued. Considering how--

It is actually, genuinely disheartening what NaNoWriMo has been doing lately. Of course, this doesn't stop me (and it shouldn't stop anyone) from writing, but. It's still sad to see like, a place that's supposed to encourage and dote on and feed your own creativity rely and encourage the reliance on

It's strange and interesting to see this place liven up. I really like it here.

Are there any writing events or zines hosted here? #writer #writing #writersofbluesky #authorsofbluesky #zines #zine

I tried a few months ago, but too much stress and stupidity came up. And then more stress and stupidity. And more. But even with the stuff that came up over the past few days I feel pretty comfortable writing, so maybe despite The Horrors I'm just... Getting back into the swing of things.

I try to remember this site exists but I always forget . Anyways . I've been rereading Lumine a lot lately while working on some original stuff. It's been a nice way to get back on track for writing again.

I FORGOT BLUESKY EXISTED AGAIN . HELLO .

Also. Aiden feels so weird to write for now. I keep slipping into what I would write for the original SBG Aiden's personality. And that's not what I'm trying to do. Also I might have an OC named Aidyn now, as if that's not confusing verbally.

It feels so, so good to be writing again... I wrote one small fanfiction just to get back into the swing of things, worked on some OC Characterizations, and now I'm going to go work on planning stuff for a little bit. I might do some more fanfiction stuff to top off the night, but--

I was under attack while trying to write earlier...

I finally have a bluesky account, hi!! I write a lot of School Bus Graveyard/SBG fanfics <: I also write some original fiction, too, but that hasn't really been shared yet.
