Eeeeek I’ve had a burst of productivity from somewhere *grabs it tight in the hope it doesn’t leave again* and it’s entirely possible I might, might, finish the accidental Monthly Rumbelling fic today. In fact screw it, I am going to make this happen! I haven’t finished anything in ages and I’m practically giddy at the thought. I’m going to get to write ‘The End’ on something *happy dance* …

If all goes well then I’ll post tomorrow 🙂

Awww thanks, your support means a lot! Besides now I’ve stated I’m going to finish it on tumblr I kinda have to actually finish it heh 🙂 No in all seriousness, I actually think this is going to happen. I finally after *cough* 7.5k have managed to include the prompt (yeah I know, but it’s not as much an after thought as it sounds). I’m thinking there’s only a couple more scenes left. So yeah, this should be a done deal, now all I need is a title for this thing.

I think I just realized part of why I’m struggling to write short oneshots these days. It’s that little voice at the back of my head going “show don’t tell.”

I just opened my file for my accidental Monthly Rumbelling fic and there was a couple of paragraphs I wrote the other day, that I didn’t count because they were just summarizing what happened. I realized after I’d written them that sucked, and so I thought “I’ll go back and write that scene properly” but because I do that, short oneshots generally explode.

This is how Fall All Over Again gained an extra two chapters before the scene that was supposed to be for November’s Monthly Rumbelling, and why subsequently I didn’t post that until this past Tuesday. I think it made for a better story (she says hopefully) but it means it takes a lot longer to finish anything. On the other hand perhaps it’s a case of “being careful what you wish for” as I’ve always written short and wanted to write long, so haha jokes on me – seems can’t do both 🙂

I’m so, so glad I found this story last week. it’s amazing! Of course I had to read the whole thing again so I remembered where everyone stood in this chapter.

Poor Neal, so confused about what being a cursed persona actually *means*. Can’t blame him. Fandom has been asking the same questions for years. lol

And then Lacey enjoying the parts of the date that *Lacey* would enjoy. It amused me to think that Belle would have been just as disappointed by the tiny portions – because, Lord, they *are* tiny, and I might have done as Lacey as grabbed a burger afterwards – but Belle would have laughed about it while Lacey was just annoyed. It’s the little things, heh. And then Rumple being ‘thanked’. Heh. I bet he had a good idea how to go about using his mouth on Lacey. A year’s worth of experience, in fact. lol Great chapter, can’t wait to see what comes when Lacey finally accepts she’s in love! 😉

Yay! I’m so glad you liked it *happy dance* to be honest with Neal, and this will come up again so spoiler alert, I think it was more that he wanted to make sure Rumple wasn’t screwing somebody over to get what he wanted. Neal thinks that Rumple doesn’t have much regard for people’s freewill, there’s not a lot of trust there right now. Thank you so much for this amazing comment! 🙂

The trials of an anyelle writer.

People on IMDB don’t always have pictures, or don’t always look like their pictures, so I’ve just spent half an hour scrolling through California Solo to get one guys name. It’s a good job I did that actually because I tried process of elimination, and I’d got it wrong. Thank you conscience for making me check. I did also pick up a handful of other useful facts which was helpful.

Seriously though writing standard rumbelle is so much easier because there are entire wiki’s with info, and complete episode transcripts. I can google and have an answer within seconds. In other words I’m trying to update all my WIP’s before the end of the month because seeing ‘last updated 2016′ is making me sad.

I have 3 things left that I absolutely want to post this month, ideally 4 things but the last one might be a stretch too far. There was a lot more on the list but words are a real struggle right now. I hope I’ll be able to do it but we’ll see 🙂

Conspiracy!Belle, what’s something Gold does that’s really cute and would shock the town if they knew he did it? (Like teddy bears on his fave pair of pj’s or something like that)

Evan’s pajamas are all solid dark colors – with buttons! I swear I am going to buy him a t-shirt one day. Anyway, I think that there are a lot of sweet things that Evan does which would shock the town, they don’t seem to believe he’s capable of being nice. For example, if it’s going to be cold in the morning, he always remembers to put my shoes and coat by the radiator so they are toasty warm. Little gestures like that mean the world, they mean he cares.

That wasn’t what you asked though, you asked what he did that was really cute. To be honest I can’t think of anything like the example you gave. All that comes to mind are things which just show him to be a loving and caring man. For instance he still has all of Neal’s teddy bears from when he was little, and you know about how he cut his hair to make Henry feel better?

I suppose, the town would be shocked at how affectionate Evan is. He’s very much a cuddler, not that I mind, there’s nothing more comforting than being wrapped in his arms and snuggling against him.

In Your Arms Belle: Had you any idea that Jamie was sweet on you?

Yeah I thought that might have been the case. Well, alright I hoped that was the case. There was always doubt in my mind, that maybe he just thought of me as a friend and that stopped me from saying anything. I didn’t want to ruin what we had by trying for more if he didn’t feel the same. So much for ‘doing the brave thing’ *sigh*

I don’t have very many friends and I didn’t want to lose him if I’d misread the situation, no matter how almost certain I was. After the night we spent together, I was going to say something but then I didn’t have to because he said it first. Nobody was paying any attention to us and then I caused a spectacle by kissing him, but I just couldn’t want a second longer. I was so happy and I wanted him to know I felt the same.

OOC: *happy dance* thank you so much for sending in an ask for this fic! 🙂

As a writer I’m supposed to have a good grasp of words. However, words fail me when I look at the TEA nominations. This is my first year in the fandom and to see my name on that list at all would be humbling. To see my name on that list *cough* ten times, is just quite frankly unbelievable. I am stunned and honored and I’m not at all convinced that this isn’t some kind of dream.

I’ve been trying to write this post all day and I really don’t know what to say. Saying thank you, just doesn’t seem enough. Thank you for thinking of my fics, and taking the time to nominate me. Seriously, thank you. When I put up my ‘for your consideration’ post I just hoped maybe I might find a couple of new readers, I really didn’t expect any nominations.

No matter what happens next, you guys have already made my year. Thank you so very much.

That moment when you are writing and you read back what you just wrote, and you have no idea if it makes sense or not. I mean I know what I’m trying to say, but I have absolutely zero faith that I’m getting it across. What is in my head is quite possibly not successfully translating to the screen.

And I wanted to post this chapter tomorrow. Well shit.
