Fic Comm is Here!

Oct 24, 2009 12:42

Hey guys! So I finally got around to making a comm for my fic. I didn't realize just how much I'd written until now, haha. You can now access all my stories together in one place at mixtape_fiction. I know you're probably wondering about the name...I originally wanted "loveandmixtapes" but some idiot chick who hasn't used her journal since 2004 still has it, and I'm still a bit bitter, not gonna lie. The word "love" is part of my Twitter name and it's more than just the cool thing, it's who I am. I'm the one kid who (despite being bitter and angry half the time) still believes that all we really need in this world is love, and that if we allow it to, can fix or heal most of what's slowly killing us. The mixtapes bit actually came originally from one of my favorite books, "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," and Charlie's love of mixtapes and their ability to capture song, emotion, and a moment in time. The original plot description on the back of that book talks about Charlie's struggles as an average high-school student through "the time of first dates and mix tapes," and that phrase just completely captured me.

I want to thank everyone for their patience as I've been preparing this comm and locking my journal and everything else. Thank you all for reading and commenting and talking about my writing and just everything, really. You'll never know how encouraging it is to see how well-received it's been, or how much it helps me to make it through another day when I wake up to six emails telling me that I have comments on a story that I posted just the night before. I hope you enjoy being able to find/read everything again and again, and I will be posting lots of new fic in the coming weeks. Oh, and if you friended me just to read my stuff, feel free to follow the new comm. I'll try to update my journal when I post new fic, and if you decide to unfriend, I will not be offended at all. Thank you all, and hope to hear more from you soon!

fic, musings, real life
