First IWTV fic from me since August - and this was written in July 2024! Just needed editing - another post S2 reunion fic 'Salvage - to save from destruction' archiveofourown.org/works/74642146 #iwtv #iwtvfanfic #iwtvfanfiction

@transformativeworks.org Does receiving 4 emails from AO3 about resetting my password without requesting a change of password link in the past 5 days suggest someone is trying to hack my account? Or is there a glitch? I did change my password as a precaution but getting worried now.

Scrolling through old emails from when I was still teaching, came across this, circulated by the school nurse to staff and students:

I'm from the Jurassic 🦕🦖 I've done all but 8 & 9 (shoulders way too narrow for that, altho I did own a boombox and someone else carried it through London & over the Albert Bridge late one night in 1977 when we had to change party venue due to gate crashing nuns) - giving me a score of 2, close to 0.

EARRINGS EARRINGS EARRINGS SGIT IS NOT A DRILL TRIDNFKTN

Didn‘t have time to write a new fic for Lestat‘s birthday, but here’s one from last year 🎉🥳❤️ archiveofourown.org/works/514267...

Fandom isn’t your job. Take a month off. Take 3 years off. Post incomplete fics. Post incomplete art. Never post again. Switch fandoms. Stay loyal to one fandom only. Do whatever tf you want. You literally make all the rules of engagement in this arena.

Highly recommended!

Glad to have been invited to participate in this ❤️ Was around to read the book when it was first published, like many of us, I owe Anne Rice a great deal

It's odd how people readily accept that the first scene filmed isn't likely to be the first scene of a season, yet panic that the last scene filmed will be from the finale of that season. TVL was scheduled to complete filming earlier in Oct - probably needed extra time to film bits of other eps

Outlander fanfic 26/30 Due for completion by 21 Nov Start archiveofourown.org/works/607353... C 26 archiveofourown.org/works/607353... Jamie away for almost a year -lost memory in shipwreck Claire & John think him dead - marry and Claire falls pregnant What happens when Jamie finds them? #Outlander

ten toes down until iwtvtwt learns how to engage critically with the material in a way that doesn't ask writers to sanitize the characters

He's like if introversion and social anxiety had the most beautiful theater-inclined child. Bless him 😭

Listening to The Cure's Disintegration album ... could write a Loustat fic with this as their soundtrack ...

What is wrong with Word???

Gladioli usually flower in late summer - July to Sept. Mine have just sent up 2 flower spikes now, at the start of October (due to climate change). Have had to stake them (not in the vampire-killing way) to stop them from getting blown over in the 50mph winds expected later today from Storm Amy.

What do you do when characters in a story you’re writing get too frisky too soon, and when you try to get them to dial it down, they ramp it up to raunchy? my own fault really putting 3 of them in the same bedroom I guess…

Couldn't agree more. It's interesting that after a fic is completed, there's an uptick in hits & kudos (understandably as many readers wary of WIPs prefer to read a completed fic) but few if any new comments. Writers always enjoy the comments no matter when they arrive (unless they're mean!)

What a remarkable human Robert Redford was. He has to be the number one consummate movie star - but also a seriously good director, indie film icon and generous humanitarian. Look at the “he’s gotta invite us to stick around” moment from Butch and Sundance for an example of his effortless charisma.

Robert Redford was a beautiful soul who cared deeply for our country and the world! 💔

In London, hate will never win.

Hazel catkins in the garden - in September, when they don't usually develop until winter, ready to open in spring. Weather totally messing with the plants' natural cycles...

Outlander fic update 20/30 What if John & Claire were married long enough to fall in love and she falls pregnant? What if William was still a kid? What happens when Jamie comes back? Fic starts here: archiveofourown.org/works/607353... Chapter 20: archiveofourown.org/works/607353... #outlander

Still my faves to date... Oh to have them all in one DECENT photoshoot😅 #iwtv #InterviewWithTheVampire #tvl #TheVampireLestat #JacobAnderson #SamReid #AssadZaman

It's frustrating to me how many people seem to think that photos taken by a private citizen are somehow public property. Shouldn't people get a say in who they share their photos with? The entitlement, bro. People will usually respect fan artists who say not to repost... make it make sense.

Like Netflix wouldn't immediately cancel iwtv when too many homophobes gave up after the first episode 💀

I made a post on tumblr about fic interactions Summary: ‘Have fun playing in the sandpits of fandom without flicking sand in each other's eyes.‘ www.tumblr.com/angstosaur/7...

Ribbit.... ribbit... ribbit... readit....readit... readit ... The cake looked delicious and as for the fic there are certain combinations of words you'll never have read before concerning the brat, sorry, Frog Prince ... be ready to pucker up and look into his bulging blue eyes!! 🐸🫦

Last week I made a frog cake and called it Frogstat bc he wears chartreuse+glitter. Well IMPurity on Ao3 wrote a fic abt this Frogstat and Prince Louis! It's stinking cute and will cheer you up tremendously. Please go read, kudos and comment #loustatfic #iwtvfic archiveofourown.org/works/705654...

In my own little fic-writing world, I'm dabbling in exactly these two bits! When faced with post-kidnapping Lestat and when Lestat goes to Gobi, what would this NEW Louis do? He wouldn't just read books I tell ya! #iwtvfic #loustatfic #qotd #ttotbt archiveofourown.org/works/69888711

Thursday 11 Sept 9pm BBC2 and ep2 on Friday 12 Sept 9pm #TheNewsreader All eps available on iPlayer (incl S1 and S2 already) after S3ep1 airs 🎉

Yay! 7 months after starting to post this story it's got to 200 kudos A way to go to catch up with the previous multichapter fics of mine (Assassin and Detective fics -300, Memory is a monster -412) but it looks as if completion is bringing in some new readers #iwtvfanfic #iwtvfanfiction #loustat

When your grammar checker thinks you meant to write something smuttier than you intended:

Give some love to unproblematic, quietly ploughing away #iwtv fic writers/artists today. Comment on their fics, tag them here, tumblr or blue why you love their writing/art. We can have more positive, creative #InterviewWithTheVampire fandom. Give love to get love. #queervampires

Fic readers - please support fic writers by commenting if you enjoy what you've read - it can take many hours to write a chapter and less than a minute to leave a nice encouraging comment ❤️ Comments are fuel to us fic writers, without them we're running on empty, and some of us run out of steam🫂🥰

New chapter is up!!

I have a feeling that BBC will put the whole season on iPlayer once they've aired the first ep on BBC2 at 9pm - same slot they broadcast it on for S2, same slot used for IWTV!

Sands of Time - complete 26/26 archiveofourown.org/works/629137... The Prince has his castle, his man and his band! #iwtv #iwtvfic #iwtvfanfic #iwtvfanfiction #loustat

15 artists/bands to get to know me The Doors Pink Floyd Led Zeppelin The Kinks David Bowie Leonard Cohen The Who Queen Metallica The Cure Wishbone Ash Blue Öyster Cult New Model Army Massive Attack Måneskin 15 isn’t enough! This is just the tip of the iceberg 😅

I'm in the IWTV fic discord. I see fic-writers being down with very low engagement. I implore #iwtv fandom to pls help out with kudos and comment any fic you're reading. No writer dislikes a comment. Even if it's small nod of confirmation 'i hear what you saying' is good enough. #iwtvfic

May have to get tickets and see if I can steward at this con… Ncuti!!!!
