Reading and trying to keep tabs on the fics & smauโs I read โข ๐ ๐ญ๐๐ฆ๐ฅโข Princess Park Reading Club crazy shadow warrior โข she/her (35 +)
I never check the kuddos. I check the summary, the length and if I donโt want to start a new wip, I check if itโs complete. And thatโs it. I start reading. There are so many underrated ficsโฆ why focus on such numbers?
@lovejfp
Maybe because some of those fanfics are way better than a lot of books? If it bothers you, just change the character names in your head. And here you go, you got a โreal bookโ.

i know i just wrote an olympics fic, so this is gonna need to be someone else BUT... imagine an enemies to lovers synchro diving fic. They don't get along, they argue about everything, but they mirror each other perfectly and are ruthlessly competitive
Just read this very lovely short one posted for Alpha Louis Fic Fest
Featuring feral Louis and soft shepherd Harry
Cute and so so sweet.

A year and a half ago, I stumbled in this fandom and by association I started to discover amazing authors and artists.
They give me so much joy every day.
THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU, ARTISTS OF THE FANDOM
Time for an appreciation thread
In-going ๐งต fics with older Harry and/or Louis
I have a soft spot for those fics so Iโll try to gather the ones I read here. Will add as I read more.

I agree. This should not be discussed publicly. Doesnโt matter what you think. Itโs a child and whatever โsideโ youโre on it will hurt them

I didnโt resist and read it againโฆ and itโs still as good as the first time. Even better
Link for those of you who need to read it (all of you actually).
The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea
Iโm really excited for this.
ALSO quite scared. What with the non-communication and angst queens collaborating?
Weโre going to suffer (but Iโm here for it lol)
As some of you know
@hereforhwriting
and I have been working on a project for the last six months or so. We can't wait to share it with you.
Eta... some time in the futureโ๏ธ
Canโt remember if I shared this here already or not. But thereโs this account on TikTok which recs one fic a day.
Love it because there are diverse fics every day! Includes the link, and some details in the comments.

The more I watch this video the sicker I get. He would force them to tour and release music under 1D if he could. He would continue exploiting them. Not one ounce of regret in the discourse. Thatโs just disgusting.
So I read โcome as you areโ by stylinsoncity for the 2nd time this week. And I canโt believe I forgot so many bits of it before.
Love those 2 so much โค๏ธ
Thanks to my reading buddies for the exchanges during the read!

Styles hadn't looked up and dread won the race in Tomlinson's heart. It was barely three seconds before he did, breathing a heavy sigh.

Itโs quite simply the story of 2 boys who were brave enough to live their story in a very hostile environment. In the 70โs in Idaho.
Love, shitty entourage, small town homophobia, found family (of sorts) and San Francisco.
Ooooh I love that!!
Happy fanfic author appreciation day!
Iโm so glad that you all decide to write and share your stories with us.
It doesnโt matter if you have a small or a massive following, you are a VERY vital part of my life right now.
Thank you to every writer!!!
THANK YOU for this thread yet again about why it doesnโt matter if youโre a larrie or not if you write larrie ff.
Maybe, at some point people will understand and stop harassing authors ๐ค
Iโm so tired of this take and Iโm not even a writer ๐ฉ
Hi anon. I know what this is about. And it's a rehashed topic that comes out every few weeks.
First of all, everyone posts their works (art, fic, smau) for *community*. The dreaded attention mentioned here. We all crave it, we crave people to like what our minds delivered.
Today is the dayโฆ

@BoosBabycakes28
Weโve talked about it for a while but weโve always been side-tracked. But here we are!
Reaction thread!
Enemies to lovers but itโs actually exes to lovers who were at some point friends to lovers. It was always love of some kind. Love that sprouted, blossomed, wilted. It never died, it just went through a rough winter. Now itโs spring again.
Something about anonymous pen pals whoโve been corresponding since they were kids agreeing to meet for the first time in their late 20s, early 30s.
Something about them realising they live close. Too close, in fact.
In the same house, even.
They were roommates.
American Rose - justgotowisharder
Itโs a really beautiful fic about the journey to self-acceptance for both of them. And this acceptance is finally leading them to being free of living their love.
The synesthesia is very poetically described โค๏ธ
Just wanna sayโฆ I love Harryโs pov in YMAEAK. Every time.
The chapter is perfect.
Now Iโll go back to cry about a lonely flat and a drunken voicemail ๐ญ
This one - I always think about it as if unbelievers Larry never acted on their attraction in high school (or maybe did but never talked about it) and theyโre at university now
so let's cross the lines we lost thecoloursneverfade
Soooโฆ I woke up to a steamy rec from

Itโs another stylinsoncity universe that pulled me in completely ๐ฅฐ
The daughter/father relationship and the way h & l story unfolds are told with much vulnerability and sincerity.
I also love the 2 times stamps/companions for this fic. Gives more elements to complete the story

They have the gift of always bringing me back to their work๐
One of the best kid fic in this fandom for me!

It's beautiful, heartbreaking, raw...
Always love their Louis๐ซถ๐ป
I donโt have the time to do an appreciation thread this month โน๏ธ

Keep going and weโll have nothing to read soon.
And I totally agree with Sweetieโฆ just a bunch of cowards! (to keep it polite because Iโm livid)
This is absolutely NOT normal and I am SO MAD RIGHT NOW. What a bunch of fucking coward(s) not even brave enough to use their accounts to say what they have on their minds, not that I am that surprised with the shit theyโre saying. LEAVE HAILS ALONE and come harass people -

@ImogenLeewriter
I love the not communicating or miscommunication so much! Of you take YCHIITS, Louis is so lost, itโs impossible he communicates properly. And Harry is not better. YMAEWK - same, Harry, especially, would never be able to express his feelings bc heโs always repressed his true self
You should not be on twitter if you end up bullying someone out of there just because you canโt understand a JOKE.
Ask yourself if your fav is proud of you
(a little hint: heโs not)
#IStandWithImogen
This fic is a must read!
Everything is so well done.
The plot, the characters, the dynamics between them. The complexity of their feelings, the danger and tension you can sense at every page.
Also love the found family, the friendship and the love they all share ๐ซ ๐ซ
Really loved this beautiful fic ๐ฅฐ
Really love a deep Niall and Louisโ friendship, a found family, funny characters.
Marigold is a pure delight. And Gemma is the best big sister.
And, it's a wrap!
The final chapter of The World Outside Is Bigger Than Me is now live.
It's been a wild ride and quite literally the least confident I have been about a fic, but I hope it came out okay and you guys enjoy it.
Lots of love ๐ซ
Caught up on this wip.
Itโs so so sweet. You can see how much they care for each other already ๐ซ ๐ซ
Canโt wait for the next chapter. Because it ended on quite a cliffhanger ๐คญ
@hereforhwriting
๐ omg I hate people sometimes - she was also told to off herself and reached through several platforms for people to send those nice messages even after she went private and removed all links from her account. Thatโs quite exactly the definition of cyber bullying.
I was a bit reluctant to read this one because of the โferalโ tag.
But that was mistakeโฆ
I loved it so much๐ฅน๐ฅน
Theyโre so sweet and cute and lovely. And they take care of each other so wellโฆ
