just a friendly reminder that it was peeta and not gale who first suggested that they should join the revolution.

also! i've received a large amount of requests with people asking me to write fics in which either peeta or katniss give baths to eachother. im not sure why ive received so many all in one go from seemingly different people but i'd like to remind u all that ive already written a fic which includes a bath scene! you can find it here.

out of curiosity what are dark fics or dubcon?

this is my understanding of what a dark fic is. it’s a pretty broad/vague term!

and dub con means dubious consent. in the more intimate scenes i write (and if i ever end up writing any NSFW fics) i always want consent to be explicit and wouldn’t feel comfortable writing something in which it isn’t.

ive realised recently that when i write THG fics, i generally find it easier to work with prompts/shorter reqs because they allow me enough space to take the fic where i want. they give me inspiration, but they don’t limit me because they're never too specific.

so i just wanted to put out there that prompts, suggestions and short requests are easiest for me (e.g; “Katniss freaks and panics over a Peeta choking her flashback” or “sleepy katniss demands to be carried by peeta”). they’re what i like to receive because they plant inspiration and help me think of new settings and plot lines. i like the freedom that they allow me. 

however, i’m less keen on requests that are longer in nature or too detailed. i struggle to write things which follows a rigid structure and when i try, i often find myself worrying that im going to mess it up somehow and not end up with what the requester wanted. ive received quite a few requests like this over the past few days on ao3 and tumblr and honestly? i dont know what to do with them. i want to make people happy and i want to write something that’ll bring them comfort, but i truly struggle doing so when the requests are so specific. 

i feel like im not phrasing any of this very well but my main point is that i like short prompts a lot more than complicated or specific requests (this isn’t the same for everyone btw, it varies from writer to writer). if you have an idea for a fic you’d like to see me write, please send it, but be aware that if your request is quite detailed, i might not be able to write it. 

finally, please be kind and patient with me. im trying to write more consistently, but i have a life outside of writing too, and some days the words just don’t come to me. sending me the same request over and over just fills up my inbox and stresses me out. receiving asks like “i want you to write this for me *insert long description with not even a thank you at the end*” makes me feel unappreciated. please remember to be polite in your asks, and also please let me know if you’ve sent the same exact request to other writers.

i get that people might want updates or to make sure i’ve received their reqs, but it becomes overwhelming after a while :/ here’s a post I found regarding fic requesting etiquette - if you’re ever unsure about a request, feel free to check it out!

im going to make a navigation post tonight so that i can clarify everything ive said here. i’ll also highlight what i like/don’t like writing seen as people ask me quite often.

thank u for reading this if u got to the end :’)
