Anonymous asked: Sometimes I get so sad that we won't be able to read new works by TMF :~ It's not even about fanfiction, which she was so good at, but anything written by her - from those witty posts that made me crack up and pretty much hate Glee's non-character development to Eights and Tens and other literature comments. I'd really really like to know if she's posting stuff somewhere.

bucephalusthegreat asked: Indeed, TMF did recraft AIT into TSS because she didn't feel that the original story did Faberry justice and she wanted to write what she considered to be a "realistic" version of Faberry (in contrast to say "I'll Be" or "Off the Key of Reason"). In fact, IBTTRY was a reaction piece to TSS because she needed to write something to "cheer herself up"...

Anonymous asked: Man re-reading Eights and Tens is a trip. It something I'd pick up in a store. I'd even like to know what happens to these people without the body-swap angle. But, I'm glad we got a glimpse into their lives for even a little while. Thanks, TMF.

Eights and Tens blog-only excerpts?
Now that the published full chapters 1-11 are gathered (yay!), does anyone happen to have any of the brief posts that TMF posted on tumblr from future chapters? Especially the body swap episode and part where Claire admits that kissing Nicole in Jackson’s body is way hotter than just kissing Jackson, and that kissing Jackson in Nicole’s body is, like, heaven…. From...

I don’t suppose you have any leads on chapter 10 of Eights and Tens do you? It’s killing my perfectionist side having 1-9 and 11 but not 10. * Nope. I never have any leads on anything.  Things just appear in my email or inbox, and then I put them in the dropbox. With that said, I totally understand the annoyance in not having Chapter 10, and I am sure others do too.  Maybe...

Okay so it looks like the Submit box is fine.  So if you all could direct your questions, feels, comments, etc.  To the Submit box rather than the ask, that would be great. In fact, I may even close my ask box, since it’s so pointless right now. Also, thank you too Belafreakingtalbot and Seekingoutfriday for submitting test posts. :)

Anonymous asked tumfslove:  The Quinntana in the last episode made me re-read Faster. It was mandatory. :) —- I was wondering if I was going to get any Quinntana/Faster traffic on here after “I Do”. :) I did the exact same thing because FEELS. Did anyone else feel the same way?

Just fyi
My ask box is broken.  I can get messages, I just can’t publish them like I normally would.  I have to make them a text post and all that jazz. I dunno if my submit box is affected though.  If someone would submit something as a test, that would be great.

srslyrobinsherbatsky answered your question: So, I don’t know how many of you still watch Glee,… all i saw was a gif of santana showing up at the door and i feel the need to re-re-read ECFC This.  THIS.  THIS.  After the episode ended I was so tempted to start a re-read.

kitfah answered your question: So, I don’t know how many of you still watch Glee,… In that last scene, it was all I could think about. I know, right?  It was like a super condensed (lower quality) version of ECFC taking place on my screen.  It was so surreal.

Anonymous Asked: wtf is ECFC?
Eyes Closed to Fingers Crossed aka TMF’S Pezberry Epic. I mean, even if you aren’t down with Pezberry, you should read this series.  It’s arguably TMF’s best fandom work.

Rachel's coming out
Ok, so I’m a little slow on the uptake and never read this before today, but it just occurred to me that the tmf_Drabble4 piece is a prequel drabble on how Rachel came out in TSS. How did I not know this?

Anonymous asked tumfslove:
i started following tumfs kind of late-ish (around 12 chapters into IBTTRY?), and i never really got that involved (as in, i never followed her tumblr, i didn’t read TSS until maybe a few months after she left the fandom). i dunno. AoCC hit me in like, a monumental way, though, and the fact that it’s literally one of the only bigger works that was never finished kind of hurts me a...

nextspring asked: What are your thoughts on And Isn’t This Exactly Where You’d Like Me? Because I just finished reading it, after reading These Strange Steps, and I can't stop comparing them. I love Quinn's development in TSS, and all the angst, and, omg, TSS is my favorite fic ever, and I don't even like reading sex scenes and stuff, but it's so well written!
