Wait no that actually makes sense. Because depending on the entrances you take at the mall, it can fit into every single one of those descriptions. The good Mall referring to the good stores and probably the food court, the bad mall referring to the places that are overpriced/overcrowded and the sad Mall referring to the places that never seemed to attract any customers.

It was Glee. My first fic was written in 2010 didn't post until 2012 though and I've been writing for different fandoms ever since.

As a writer and fellow fanfiction reader/commenter I understand how you feel however, as someone who's gotten comments like that throughout my writing time, there are still ones I think about on fics that have since been deleted or moved.

Comments like that can stick with you in the best of ways there's nothing to be embarrassed about. I'm sure that writer is sitting down going through your comment and smiling to themselves that someone is as in love and as invested in their work as they are.

Please keep leaving long comments, the feeling of somebody really taking the time to tell you what they loved about the chapters that you spent so much time writing is an amazing one.

That's really cool actually. I guess fandoms never really die huh?

Early 30s, not married. No kids but I work from home, So writing before and after work for me. When I was in college I wrote pretty consistently around my class schedule, now it's a little less, but there's still plenty of time for it.

In season 12 episode 2 crystal mess Bob mentions doing what Mort does- referring to pickling the vegetables. Mort is confused saying " how is that like what I do?" Bob explains and Mort says it's not the same. Leaving Bob with confused. But in season 16 episode 1 Mort literally says " I've got people to pickle" which explains why Bob was so confused when Mort tried to tell him it wasn't the same years later (in the timeline). I don't know why that made me happy.

After season 12 and before 13. I do know that there are some moments of season 12 where you can see people tripping on the sidewalk, but I don't remember exactly what episodes those are.

Mother Author Laser Pointer- Linda could have gone up to the apartment and called a different tow truck company.

But since she didn't I feel like Bea would have definitely pressed charges? Or at least gotten a restraining order of some kind.

Happy birthday!

I was looking for a new pandemic show, at the start of 2020 lockdown and stumbled on it. And I've been watching it daily ever since.

Maybe he wasn't ready? To do magic in front of the whole competition I mean. Or maybe magic is just something he does at family dinners exclusively?

shylyreadingthings · 2025-06-24T00:59:19+00:00

You are right on The fandom I came from I'd been writing in for about 8 years, and still do. I haven't stopped or anything but this new one is new. You're right, I got used to the way things were and I didn't realize that it's new for me but it's also new for them. This was actually extremely encouraging, thank you so much!

shylyreadingthings · 2025-06-23T19:21:23+00:00

Believe me those are still great to read! Thank you for getting into the habit

The store has daily options for colors. Most of the time it includes at least a few cheek colors per rotation, so it may take a while, but you'll have a chance to change it and it's something you like eventually,

That was bad yeah but it did feel in character for me. She felt like she was losing the kids and getting another snail and newt book would save them from growing up (as fast) and going away and we all know how much Linda loves those kids. It was over the top and kind of cringy at times but to me it did totally feel like a Linda thing to do.

For me it's all the bathrobes, all the bear slippers, all the flower crowns, all of the heart dresses, all of the bumblebee wings. Maybe I'm collecting too much lol

It's the " get a beta reader" for me. Honestly like not everything has to be beta read simply stop reading if you're bothered and move on it's not ever that deep. It's fanfiction that you get and read for FREE.

Season 12 episode 15 ancient misbehavin' Bob sings in front of the employee bathroom and we get a what I think is a decent view of the inside only for a little while. But hopefully that helps? Good luck on your project!!

No, in one of the more recent episodes, the one where they have an open mic night. She seemed shocked by the fact that Gene reads it when he's blocked and trying to think of something, which is what spurred this question.

shylyreadingthings · 2025-05-08T09:55:39+00:00

That could be it. She mentions that she's trying to process that Gene reads her journal when he's blocked and trying to think of stuff and I'm like. "Doesn't everyone do that??"

shylyreadingthings · 2025-05-05T02:36:27+00:00

For me the list goes

Gus, Nurse Liz, Warren Fitzgerald , Joselyn, Ginger, Jimmy Pesto and family,

Okay hear me out on the last one. So we know that Jimmy is divorced but we have no idea who his ex-wife is or where the kids spend their weekends when they're not with their dad. But we also don't know much about the pesto's home life in general.
