Have you ever considered writing a novel? I feel like you could definitely do it- I’m blown away by how quickly you can write really awesome stories.

Aww, you’re very sweet!

I definitely want to write a novel in the future– I have a few different ideas (most with g/t, some with sci-fi or fantasy), and they run through my head a lot while writing.

Life has been getting in the way recently, mostly my job and personal life stress, keeping me from putting enough thought into the writing I want to do. I’ve been writing all this fanfiction because it’s so nicely self-indulgent after a long day of work. I can look at gifs and daydream stories in various setups. But yes, writing a novel is #thedream.

It’s so much fun (and super educational) to write stories like these together.

Personally, I have written a novel-length story here and there. Some of my work can be found on my Deviantart, including a snippet of Bowman Leafwing’s original story! That project is currently undergoing some pretty important edits, and there will be an announcement regarding the progress of that story sometime in the near future.

February 5th excerpt:

“Havin’ fun with that book?” Dean snarked as he got back into the car to pull it around to their room.

Sam rolled his eyes. “The more we know, the better off we are.” He didn’t look at Dean, but he already knew… “Did you get her number?”

January 23rd excerpt:

Sam didn’t notice at first that Stan had vanished from the top of the pocket, so intrigued by the story in the book was he. It wasn’t until he’d reached well over halfway that he glanced down to find Stan gone.

Concerned, Sam nudged open the flap of his pocket to see inside, spotting Stan in his ragged clothing curled up inside, fast asleep. The amount of trust invested in them by the little guy hit Sam all at once. Stan had no control over what happened to him, yet he was slumbering peacefully away, his face relaxed.

October 26th excerpt:

“Alright,” Jacob muttered, shifting his focus entirely to the small sleeping person. He didn’t want to leave Sam lying in the book. He moved a hand tentatively towards Sam, ready to snatch it back if he startled the little guy awake.

It didn’t happen. Jacob had had practice picking up sleeping sprites before, and it showed now. Despite his hand being so much bigger, he was able to nudge it under Sam while hardly disturbing his curled-up position. His fingers curled protectively over the tiny weight. When he stood, his hand remained steady thanks to the times he’d carried young nestlings home at their insistence on a ride on his hand.

April 20th excerpt:

Sam drove the final nail in the coffin of his stubborn resistance. “Dean,” he said gently, sitting on the edge of his book with his legs dangling off. “None of us can drive the Impala. If you run yourself into the ground, we’ll be helpless. Please, just eat something.” His eyes, even as small as he was, were wide and round, staring up at Dean beseechingly.

December 11th excerpt:

When nothing turned up there, Sherlock got up to repeat the process around the room. He paused, squinted and leaned over the worktop to scrutinize a minuscule smudge. There were a few tiny dots of blood, long since dried, a short distance from the book pile where the knife had been found, one of them spread thin in the vague impression of the toe of a minuscule boot.

A tiny foot kicks Sam’s knife across the surface, hard enough to cover several inches in distance.

Sherlock frowned at the image that flashed in his mind. If Sam was truly in danger from another human, why would he rid himself of his sole weapon? Unless he wasn’t alone…
