#all of these are phenomenal fics but that one in particular makes me genuinely insane

[hangmanssunnies]

I know I missed @lewmagoo 's positivity night cut off. Which first of all, Leah thank you so much for doing one. You are wonderful, and seeing mentions in my activity and all the positivity on the dash made me grin. However, there are so many fantastic wonderful people that I feel compelled to shout out! So I wanted to make quick post about it. This fandom is so great and full of kind souls and talent there really too many to name. Here are a few though ...

@bradshawsbitch Alex, is not only an absolutely lovely human but also a fantastic writer. She also puts up with me and my nonsense at all random hours of the day. Chef Rooster in Mise En Place is a complicated dream and I really wish he was mine. Not to mention her fic songbird which is some of my favorite Rooster smut. I haven’t stopped thinking about riding roosters abs since. She also makes very pretty gifs, which have been known to send me into a tizzy.

@top-hhun They just get Jake, he is always sooo well written and interesting. The way they write him is fantastic, line of sight is a particular fav.

@callsignspark I love Elle's writing and even though I am horribly behind on reading and leaving comments, I know their Mar(r)y Me fic is phenomenal, and loved anything for you.

@theharddeck so so so many fics that I could shout out of theirs but honestly my favorite might be their Coyote series. It drove me insane, and the little details they put in their writing is next level.

@wildbornsiren I have proclaimed shelly a queen of writing threesomes and I will do it again now.

@sushiwriterhere someone else I know has written fantastic threesomes, and I really loved all the content that came out to the threesome writing challenge they did.

@libraryofantiquitea I still think about their Jake fic Tell me my name and the two follow up parts they wrote.

@say-al0e it should be illegal to make me fall more in love with Bradley Bradshaw, and yet... they always seem to manage. I love all their fics though for real.

@sugarcoated-lame I love kricket's fics! Their recent Dilf Bradley story has had me particular enamored.

@myfaveficrecs I love their fics, and I love the positivity they spread in the fandom with confession Wednesdays as well as writer spotlights.

There are so so so many fantastic creators I could go on and on and on. Genuinely I love this fandom it's one of the best I've ever been in. Which is why I still am here over a year later some how. I love you all, and if I didn't shout you out, please know I do adore you too.

#I love so many people 🥺 #this is such a wonderful fandom #coley? that's not a person #coley's rambling

Hi!

I hope you’re having a lovely day and I just wanted to tell you that I keep a dedicated tab open for the first step of kintsugi just so I can reread it. It’s phenomenal (all of your work is, lbr) and even though I’ve mostly left behind the tom holland spidey fandom, this fic kickstarted it again.

It’s a genuinely wonderful story, and the conflict is written so well it drives me insane. It’s spectacular and I’ve just finished rereading it again, so I had to let you know how great it is.

(Also, AO3 says I’ve visited it 114 times and by god, I will increase that number by FORCE.)

Have a wonderful day!

Hi!

Thank you for saying this! All of my stories are really important to me (especially if they make it to the point where they get uploaded to AO3) and the first step of kintsugi in particular is one of my favorites. I'm so touched that it means that much to you!

I hope you have a great day!

#the first step of kintsugi #It's not abandoned by the way #none of my stories are #I always loop back around to my stories and the spiderman bug will bite me again #usually the way my stories go I end up falling off it for a bit and when I come back there's a bunch of chapters #nhthcth readers are long suffering in this respect #i'm the Muse's bitch basically
