kaz: but have u SEEN her? *will smith meme of him presenting Inej Ghafa*

Hi I hope you guys love it & I’ve missed you! After flooding in my apartment I haven’t been able to be online much (my laptop was unfortunately damaged) but I missed you + really wanted to get this up for you so I managed to use my partner’s laptop 🖤 (everyone say thank you to Mr.ravenyenn19!)

Anyways, thank you as always for your patience and being the best readers a girl could possibly dream of having 🖤🖤🖤

PS- I am linking my kofi page again this time & would appreciate anyone who checks it out (maybe more than ever before.) I did make my goal to join my writing competition (results pending!!) which I just have to say THANK YOU SO MUCH, guys. Seriously. 🖤 Now though I promote my page because while the insurance will cover the material items that were damaged by the flooding in my apartment, it does not cover the numerous hours I had to stay home from work or the working from home I also can’t do because my laptop was damaged. :( SO… if I can make anything else to allow geting groceries etc to be a little easier, I owe it to my partner & cats to try. 🖤🖤 Thank you so much for considering + reading what I write. Love you all.

GUYS. I am so excited. Just so so excited to share this one with you. I meant to have it up yesterday + I’m sorry I couldn’t. I was exhausted & I’ve been getting pretty bad headaches (need new glasses, elw USA healthcare) but I added an additional 1k words onto this that I think really just made this feel like the real ushering of the final act of this story. 🥹 I hope you love it as much as I do & I would LOVE to hear from you all🖤🖤 I NEED TO BE EXCITED W YOU.

Lots of plot hidden away in this one! (yes, can you believe it?!) Squint if you dare, dear readers. 🫶🏻

Thank you forever for being here. Truly.

🌌 you can find my other socials here!

🌌 ALSO if you love my writing, I’m attaching my kofi! Any support right now would genuinely mean everything to me as whatever I receive will be going straight to my new eye glasses fund. Unfortunately my insurance doesn’t cover it so I have to pay for the exam/actual pair out of pocket which is EXPENSIVE. I just can’t avoid it any longer however- I’m getting terrible headaches whenever I look at my laptop which is obviously bad for an author. Anyways, if you can’t, I sincerely understand! Reading what I write is a huge support for me in and of itself + not something I will ever take for granted. 🥹🖤 Thank you again, loves.

PS- “Our Middle Is The Moon” will be uploading later today as I realized I have some final edits to make- for readers of that story 🏹🩸

Happy Galentine’s Day ;) I hope you love this chapter! It took a lot of writing/rewriting/crying to make it the same as it was in my head but now it’s here! ily forever + thank you as always for being here & reading what I write. 🫶🏻

Find my other socials in my linktree! (It means so much to me when anyone gives my other platforms a chance- as a bby author trying to make it in the publishing industry it helps WAY more than you know<3)

PS- linking my kofi! If you enjoy my writing & want to check it out I am always so grateful! 🖤 Right now I’m actually going to be saving anything I receive for new glasses- unfortunately I don’t have eye insurance so I have to pay for it myself + it’s expensive 💔 But ya girl is tired of getting headaches squinting at the computer w her old glasses lmao.

As always, please know your support by reading my stories is more than enough🫶🏻🫶🏻 thank you forever dear readers.

Inej after moving into the Slat & deciding to take up stitching like her mother: Maybe I’ll make something for the Dregs! Make this place more cozy. Something we can all appreciate!

Kaz: ok fine it stays

I hope you guys love it! This one is also shorter but I promise next time you’ll get a longer one- it just made sense to divide them into two 🖤 Thank you so much for your support after my hiatus- I genuinely don’t know what I’d do without you guys. You mean everything to me 🖤

PS also thank you to those of you who are giving “Our Middle Is The Moon” (my new Astarion x OC, bg3 fandom) fic a shot. I’m so humbled that you liked my writing enough to try a story for another fandom- thank you thank you. 🫶🏻

Linking my kofi! I appreciate any support I receive so much- however, reading what I write is more than enough🥹🫶🏻 Endless gratitude.

New chapter is now live on “Dealing With Our Demons” by ravenyenn19 on ao3 🖤🐦‍⬛

Hello my loves 🖤 it’s actually been up for a few hours now but I had to run some errands & forgot to announce. I hope you love it, pt.2 of this chapter will hopefully be up v quickly rather than a bajillion years from now. Thank you, as always, for being here. You guys are the heart of this story right beside Kaz & Inej. 🖤

Linking my kofi! If you love my writing, it would mean the world if you could check it out! If you can’t- please know that being here is already so supportive + I literally never take it for granted. To those who have donated recently- thank you so so very much. You have no idea what it meant to me over these past few rough weeks. I love you. 🖤

So, just here for an update. If you are a follower of me/my writing- you may have noticed I haven’t been online as much the past month or two. (I won’t presume- but I do imagine if you’re a reader of my fics… it’s been obvious.😭)

Anyways, I apologize for my sudden long absence from both ao3 & all my other platforms. To be quite transparent, I’ve hit a rough patch in RealLife™️- & as they say, when it rains it pours. I had about four different significant life emergencies happen all at once & it drained me in every way possible. Emotionally, physically, financially. (I’m alright, just trying to be real.)

To put it simply, writing was forced to take a back burner. While words are my happy place + truest salvation…. It gets hard to be creative when you’re worried about whether or not you’ll be able to keep your life afloat suddenly/working every spare hour you can to afford it. That’s just honest.

But

I just want to say I’m so grateful for the patience you’ve all granted me. I know it’s frustrating. BUT (x2) tomorrow is September 7th. AKA DWOD Jordie Rietveld’s birthday & Future Kanej wedding anniversary…

AND

…my birthday. 🖤 It was my Easter egg of myself in the story for those who didn’t know- & I’m going to do my best to get some updates done for you all. I won’t promise bc it really depends on whether I can afford my office renewal/get the hours cut out of my schedule. But I’d really like to try because I miss you, and I miss writing. This is the longest I’ve ever gone without typing anything new- a month. 🥺

Anyways, Thank you. Also, as aforementioned- it’s been a really rough go of it so if anyone would like to check out my kofi & buy your local stressy depressy author a little birthday smile/office 365 renewal… i will probably cry. To those who have supported in the past month or two- you have no idea how much it means to me. Sincerely. It bought me a few groceries when I thought the sky was going to fall down. 🖤😭 (I also use venmo: @annavail9 *my real name!*)

PS- please don’t feel any obligation. I know how hard life is🖤🐦‍⬛ nmnf~

So… can’t stop thinking about this head cannon I realized I have.

If Kaz and Inej have kids (whether adopted or biological)… I personally think that their son &/or daughter would be the Grishaverse embodiment of Indiana Jones/ Lara Croft.

Let me tell you why bc I’m not wrong:

Hi guys. I hope you love this chapter- please read my notes but thank you for being here. I’ve missed you. 🖤

Hi guys, Linking my kofi bc I have no option but to be a bit shameless in my self promo this month. If you love my writing or my social media posts etc- it would mean so much to me if you’d consider checking out this page & supporting if you are able. This month I had about 3 different emergency type things arise that more or less completely drained my savings: cat emergency vet visit, oil leak on my car etc. So… to put this transparently: normally I save anything I make from here for writing things. This month it will go to groceries or gas in my car bc I need those things.

Of course, if you can’t- I obviously understand. We’re all just trying to survive + I’m sure I’ll figure it out 🖤 Thank you for being here, for reading, & for giving me a bright spot in the dark even during times like these.

Please read the authors notes & thank you so much for everything, dear readers. Hope you love it. 🖤

Thinking about going off & updating ALL of my fics in one (1) day (which I’ve never accomplished) & yes this includes ending my hiatus on “The Dregs” + “The Battles of Before” 👀 will I break my own reality? Do I dare?

Do I need to say anything more?

Roasting myself by revealing my notes app until ao3 returns to me🪓🐦‍⬛

Gosh, I’m nervous. Just hope you love it & read the author notes. I love you all. Thank you forever.🖤

I am linking my kofi! If you all enjoy my writing, I’d very much appreciate you checking it out. My stories mean everything to me & anything I receive here allows me to fund the caffeine it requires to chug along- as well as the software I use for writing etc. Pretty much tips for your local starving artist on this corner of the internet 🫶🏻 If you are unable to, please know that your support by reading my words is already more than I could ever ask for. I’m eternally grateful. Love you🐦‍⬛🖤
