N is for The Not Exactly Affair, T is for Time-Crossed Lovers, N is for No wonder, no wonder


Based on the feedback on my recent post, I am going to change my approach to these write-ups. In the past, I have strictly avoided spoilers in the posts related to my 2022 and 2023 reading games. This made them suitable for people who had not read the fics I discussed, but also caused me to leave out some of my thoughts on those fics. In the future, I will continue to write spoiler-free blurbs about each fic, but may also include some tag-protected discussion that does carry spoilers.
That's the plan, anyway. Sharing what I've read through these write-ups helps motivate me to read fic, which I find a healthy activity. It also gives me a feeling of accomplishment, which is something that tends to be lacking in my life. (Showing off that I've read things is particularly appealing, I think, for reasons related to the private post I made in October.) That said, I'm not always eager to actually do the write-ups, feeling that I'd rather spend the time reading fic. Thus, making them even longer may not turn out to be something I want to do. We'll see.
