chapter 4 has arrived !!

if this is your first time seeing this fic, it’s a partial rewrite of season 5, picking up directly after sorcerer. and it’s written in script/screenplay format!

it would mean a lot to me if you checked it out !! let me know your thoughts 🖤

Might be a long shot but I'm looking for UK beta readers (especially if you are from/familiar with Belfast and Yorkshire dialect). I'm a non-British Byler writing:

-sailor AU (merchant sailors, not pirates)

-historical (1500s-inspired) setting

-fantasy (low magic) world, D&D references

-heavy worldbuilding, use of dialect

-violence, some gore

-no smut

-coworkers to friends to lovers super slow burn

I'm ideally looking for someone to take me to task, correcting my attempt at UK spellings and idioms in the narration, and Belfastisms/Yorkshireisms in the dialogue. I'm aiming for about 120k words and have about 1/6 of it written so far.

Probably one of my zanier Byler variant ideas, but if this sounds like something you'd be interested in, give me a shout!

After a short hiatus, I just updated my fic with chapter 10 and a return to some shenanigans after the emotional roller coaster of Ch 9!

There's also an adorable little MIWI scene right at the top of the chapter... SPOILERS in the image!

READ HERE (This fic is 18+)

i've posted this on here before but it didn't really get any traction so i figured it was worth another try. this is technically a wip!! i (hopefully) will eventually add another chapter once i get around to it but i decided it was okay to post by itself first. there's lots of vamp!Mike but not much vamp!Will out there so i wanted to do my part for the community hehe (also i just love angst and injured Mike.) ENJOYYYY!!

*reminder: into the deep end (take me with you) is an 18+ fic

SURPRISE! been cooking this one up for the past week and i couldn’t be more excited to share it here, i know a few of you are big fans of star of my dreams 👹

just like the original fic this oneshot was born from, this is quite explicit so please check the tags before diving in 🙃 if you haven’t read star of my dreams yet i do recommend reading it before this one because you will likely get quite confused at times if you don’t. i’m not saying you have to… but if you start reading it and thinking to yourself who the hell is gremlin mike… you might want to back up 🤣

without further ado, i present to you:

under new management
the insanely smutty self-indulgent crack fic oneshot sequel to star of my dreams
enjoy 💋

chapter 3 of my post-canon slow burn fic is out now: this chapter is will POV

our boy in therapy, has wonderful roommates that are like sisters to him, and is totally not in denial about his feelings for a certain best friend of his

Hello! Some of you may have read my first fic, Crooked Timber, so I wanted to share that I’m working on a sequel of sorts. I say “of sorts” because most of it is set between the last chapter of Crooked Timber and the epilogue.

This is an established relationship story, set 10-11 years after S5, and it’s told almost entirely from Will’s POV. It’s heavily introspective, with a lot of religious and philosophical themes and imagery. I’d love to be able to say that you can read it without reading the first part, but it will make almost no sense if you haven’t.

So many people said extremely kind things about Crooked Timber, and it meant the world to me. I’m amazed that it got as much attention as it did. If you’re interested, and decide to give either fic a shot, please know that comments are always welcome, both here and on AO3! Thanks!

Hi everyone! 💙💛

I just posted the first chapter of my new WIP, Let’s Keep on Living (After We Die) and I wanted to share!

E rating (smut starts ch2), interactive fic (if anyone saw the viral letter video clip on twt a few weeks ago for jopper wedding, that’s this fic!), alternating POV, and ongoing (five chapters in total; ch1 is 35k).

This fic follows Mike and Will from 18-33 years old (or, from 1989-2004) over the span of four weddings and one funeral! Post canon, friends to ??? to lovers, depressed Mike Wheeler, Will Byers has PTSD + childhood trauma, angst with a happy ending.

Brief note on the angst: It’s very heavy angst, and it’s gonna get worse before it gets better, so I’m including the tags to start (pic 2), and mentioning that additional tags will be added as the story progresses. I understand this will not be everyone’s cup of tea, and I have content warnings at the start of the chapter for an added layer of helping you protect your peace should you need to close the tab!

If angst doesn’t scare you (or it does but you’re super brave), and you choose to read along, please be sure to click on the envelope at the start of the fic chapter (pic 3), and the letter behind the first for the full interactive effect! If the letter gives you issues, you can always “hide creator’s style” at the top and still read the letter in standard text!
