Today's discussion topic:

I saw a fanfic flamingo the other day about writing under a pseudonym and it got me thinking. Do you always write under your (fandom) name? I'm thinking especially for things like kinkmemes or experimental work where you maybe don't want to claim it for whatever reason. Does it depend on exactly what it is, or if its a wip, or do you not mind posting everything under your name?

I lost this morning to a migraine, and I always spend Tuesday afternoons volunteering at my daughter's school, so there's been no writing today. I'm trying to do some planning for the next chapter of my story. I need a ton of original characters, a governmental structure and some cultural details. There's more than one culture involved, so it's particularly complicated.

I do all my fic writing under this name. Even when I write anonymous kink meme fills, I claim them and post them under this name. I have a couple of original stories posted under my real name on my real name website. I posted them before I started posting fic, or I might have put them on my The RCK website.

Managed about 360 words, then ate something and went to bed. However, I did spend a lot of time researching for a scene I am working on ...

I also post everything under my name. I get that if your work is very different in style, theme and/or severity it might be wise to separate them for those who subscribe to you ... I rather put labels on them and if someone who came for my horror mixed in with non-con does not want to read my sweet, fluffy songfic (yes, I felt like I needed to commit that crime) they can go by the description and warning labels ;)

I responded to two prompts from the weekend and I'm pleased.

I could have written yesterday, but I didn't. Tuesdays always seem to be crazy, so I did easy stuff like played computer games after my day was done, instead of writing. Today I'm at the dentist, so I'll have the time free to write afterwards, but maybe not the brain. We'll see!

Everything I write for fandom is under this name.
