《Daggers》author's note + a proposal
Advertisement
hello hello!! seeing as it's been literally three years since i wrote this, i figured it's time to have a little chat with y'all.
first of all, THANK YOU for the support you've shown me. i am so lucky that this story reached so many people and brought smiles to so many faces. it's brought me so much joy to read y'all's comments or see that someone else has taken an interest in daggers. when i started writing this, i was thirteen years old. i'd just watched les mis for the first time, and after noticing a shortage in stories about my favorite pairing, i decided to write one myself. it was something fun to unwind and practice writing without the pressure of holding it to professional/publication standards.
well, i just turned seventeen, and i don't think i would believe myself if i told my younger self how successful this story's been. i love you all so much.
on that note, i wanted to propose a little idea to you all. my writing style's evolved considerably since i wrote daggers, and i was wondering if any of you would be open to the idea of a rewritten version. don't worry, the story you've grown to love won't change. it's just that going back and reading this, i know that i could make it a thousand times better if i were to rework some of the dialogue and edit some of the descriptions. would y'all be open to that, or would you prefer i leave the original version intact? please let me know!!
xoxo, anna

On Tilt [in progress]
Going on tilt is like falling in love: both make you foolish and should be avoided at all costs. *BROOKEI hate Dean Hollis.I tell myself that every day. And some days, I almost believe it. Some days, I sell myself on at least a solid dislike of who he is and what he stands for.Like his stupid charming smile. His stupid sculpted forearms. And his stupid addictive cologne that leaves me light in the head and weak in the knees. He's a vintage blend of infuriating and intoxicating, all in one deceptively handsome bottle.Let's not forget his notoriety for emotional hit-and-runs. Dean is a bad decision just waiting to happen. I would know.Been there, done that... Literally.*DEANI remember the first time I saw Brooke Maccabe. My first thought was, holy shit. That's the hottest girl I've ever seen. I was trying to think of a good pickup line when she walked up to our door and gave Brendan a hug.My next thought was, fuck my life. Because that dime? She was my best friend's baby sister. And she was sixteen.Verboten. Off-limits. The Demilitarized Zone. She may as well have had a blinking red neon sign over her head that read, 'Look but don't touch: Violation punishable by death'.Problem is, I really wanted to touch.And the even bigger problem is, nine years later, I did.*18+ for explicit adult content
