Author has written 14 stories for Pokémon, Harry Potter, Jimmy Neutron, Naruto, and Genshin Impact. My stories can be found on , A03, and all under the same name (Spurge_Laurel, except for FF which is just SpurgeLaurel). Pick whichever site is most convenient for you and read my stuff there. I'm pretty busy as a research scientist so I don't have much time to write, but I try to release something new once a month. English is not my first language and I don't have an editor. If you catch any mistakes, feel free to point them out to me and I'll fix them ASAP if I think it is worth it. I'm fluent, and now that I work in the USA I get a lot more practice with the language, but often I still find myself sounding out words to try and figure out how to spell them. I could do a whole rant on the English language and how it doesn't make any sense. It's still somehow the easiest language I have ever learned. Small personal update: I'm not dead, just really busy. Just some stuff to know: Things I will (probably) never write: 1) Harem. Not even in my smut. However, this is very different from a polyamorous relationship. I've been with multiple partners a few times, and there is sort of two things that can happen. Either everyone focuses on everyone else fairly equally and people have fun, or some people focus on specific people while others get sidelined and its rather awkward and miserable. 2) Gore and egregious violence. I wouldn't consider myself squeamish, really I'm rather desensitized to most things after spending so long on the internet. But I just don't find that kind of stuff appealing and wouldn't enjoy writing it. And when I find it in stories that often sucks all the enjoyment I have had up until that point. One example I can point to is Zara Young's death in Jurassic World. I'm a fan of the original trilogy (yes, I know the later movies are really bad but I still love them), so I was excited for Jurassic World's release. That scene spoiled the whole movie for me. 3) Pointless or contrived drama for the sake of having conflict. I hate drama. Hate it. If people think something, they should say it and not skirt around the subject so much. If you have a problem with someone else, you should tell them to their face in a clear manner and find a solution, even if that is just not seeing each other again. Don't waste my time with that bullshit, I have better things to do. 3) Unresolved angst and depressing shit. I've struggled with anxiety since I was little, and though I am getting better all the time, there are moments when I regress and just sort of lose myself. It's not pretty. I'm not saying that depression doesn't exist, I just don't want to write about sadness when I could instead be making people happy, or at least horny ;P. 4) K rated stuff. Just not going to happen. 5) Stories featuring real people. If it is a character inspired by a historical figure, then that's okay. And pretty much anything that goes against my primary ideals of free inquiry, the exchange of knowledge, and personal autonomy. Things I plan to write about: 1) Pokemon, exclusively smut. That's how I got my start. 2) Harry Potter, primarily comedy and romance. My current most popular story is one such story. 3) Naruto, 50% smut 50% action. Maybe. Feel free me to contact me about any ideas you might have. Worst thing is I say no, most likely I'll say that's a really good idea but I'm really busy so it'll probably be a while before I get to it. |
