FIRST OFF I want to start by giving a huge thank you to whomever may be reading this right now. I know these get tedious && redundant && probably the last thing you want to d o when it comes to writing but all of me finds these are much needed. It almost kickstarts everything by getting this all out of the way. I also want to throw another huge thank you in your direction because the fact that you took the t i m e to check out my blog already puts a smile on my face. I'm the WORST when it comes to these things. I end up making them awkward so just -- bear with me. I'm worth it. My mom says I am at least.

I'm just going to jump into this by stating that I'm a highly PRIVATE && selective blog. I tend to only strike up threads with mutuals, but I've been known more often than not to answer memes from anybody. I like to think of them as a free for all -- that && it gives me the opportunity to start a thread && possibly gain a mutual. With that in mind, I tend to take my t i m e when it comes to follow-backs. I like to learn about the writing, the person, && the blog itself before I hit the friendship button. Please don't expect this to happen within an hour, a day, or 3-5 business days. In the same retrospect, please don't get offended if I choose NOT to follow back.

I'll be the first ti admit that I'm S L O W when it comes to replying to anything. That includes [ but seriously is not limited to ] OOC chats, plotting calls, threads, memes, && IC banter. My muse is a fickle thing -- she can go from really active to dead in less than 2.5 seconds. I've also been known to drop threads due to lack of interest, length of time passed between replies, or the foresight of it going nowhere. It's nothing against you, your writing, or your character -- I personally refuse to force a reply for the sake of keeping a thread going. If that ever happens p l e a s e run into my askbox or my IM to plot something else. I'm almost always open to a re-routed idea or previous thread. If you DO see me actively replying to things && I haven't gotten to yours in over two weeks, please IM me. Things get lost in my activity all the time && 90% of the time I want to continue the thread.

Okay but here's the low down on starters: I'm TERRIBLE at coming up with something original, provoking, && engaging. If you want to see trash please like my starter call because that's what you'll get. A big bucket of steaming trash. Which is why I rarely e v e r post them. I think I've posted t w o the entire time I've been back? That && they're normally the last thing on my list to get to. I would much rather you send me a meme && continue a thread off of that then have to live through the trauma that's considered my writing of a starter. Again, memes are open to everyone. My askbox is open to everyone. I respond to those more often than I do those awkward starter calls. HINT HINT -- I loathe them. Please don't make me ever succumb to that. Just send the meme. Even if we haven't discussed anything. Send the damn meme.

I write Sara pretty close to CANON but I've been known to deviate from that a lot && go AU. I prefer AU anything because it gives both writers an opportunity to explore options the show/book/movie may not have offered. All I ask is that you don't throw an AU at me out of the blue. I'll more than likely sit && stress over the understanding of it && it just.. isn't worth the hassel. Discuss with me first. I'm always here for an AU discussion. Winnie the Pooh Sara if you m u s t. I'll wing it.

I guess I can start by staying that this blog is pretty trigger heavy. Most of my best work contains detailed anguish, pain, death, && torture. There will be graphic writing, NSFW themes, && language that would make a little girl cry. Unintentionally.. we don't want to.. please don't think I'd ever make a child cry on purpose. That wasn't my intention. Anywho -- it'd be much appreciated if you told me your triggers BEFOREHAND. It makes the flow of the thread or meme a lot simplier to follow when I know what sets you off. This would be a brilliant time to mention that I'll be turning 22 in August so I'm well above the age of being able to write themes that a minor should not. For the sake of getting ahead of the game I'll be tagging my triggers as: CW TRIGGER WORD. So, in example, if your trigger was blood it'd look like this: cw blood. My goal is to make the dash as comfortable as possible. The last thing I want to do is stress you or your muse out.

Yes, I do tend to go ahead && pick exclusives. Once I find someone that I click with, that Sara clicks with, both on a personal && writing level I make them m i n e. Does that sound as creepy as I wanted it to? Good. Basically what this means is that I will only be writing with ONE of these characters && one only. That is a given with me -- I'll put you number o n e. Top priority. A+ alcohol. In the same retrospect, if we do get to the point of exclusives I expect the same from you. I don't want to roll on your dash to leave love && see 12 other Sara's there. You'll get the eye. All of my eye. N O W -- that doesn't mean I won't associate with muns that hold the same muse as an exclusive. I would love to love you down everywhere in an OC chat. An OC anything really.

For all your tracking purposes, tagging purposes, && creeping purposes you can find me at: SARAQXEEN. If there's something you want me to see you can almost 100% be sure I won't miss it there. How could I? You're s c r e a m i n g my name in the tags.

Finally, of course I have Skype! It's used for anything from plotting to chatting. Don't hesitate to ask for it or swipe it from a drop. Just tell me who you are in the note or I'll d e n y faster than hell.
