the final act

It is one year since I finished and published the last chapter of The Final Act, a Mary Jane-centric Parksborn fanfic. Actually it can’t be a Parksborn fic, because one of them is dead and remains dead. In my heart and soul of course it’s a Parksborn fic (love transcends death easily), but it’s – well –

It’s really about growing up in the 00s. It’s really about me growing up in the 00s. And it was written in a different time, a less painful time. The finale makes my heart hurt now. I suppose it should.

I hope my fellow Peter, Mary Jane, Harry, and Spider-Man lovers can get something out of it. It’s hands down the best thing I’ve ever written.

It’s been a year! God, so much has happened.

This is only of interest to the most diehard of diehard Raimi Spider-Man fans, I know, but if anyone actually wants to read and keep The Final Act, I stuck it in a PDF. Just in case AO3 ever deletes the fic or somehow becomes unavailable, you know?

Sorry this looks so clunky. I have no idea how to upload it as just the link. Still, maybe this looks okay on a desktop?

I just published the last chapter today of something I’ve been working on since 2021. It was a Spider-Man fanfiction called The Final Act. No doubt it’s laughable and (sigh) cringe, because it’s fanfiction, but I took it so seriously, and I loved it so much.

It’s not really about Spider-Man at all, of course. It’s about me, and what it was like to come of age in the early ’00s. That author’s note about the ’00s being a different world but “some things were the same though” is the slash across the heart of the story. Does that matter to anyone? I don’t think I’ll ever write anything as good again.

I have an ongoing Raimiverse Parksborn fic up on AO3 now.

Well, I say “Parksborn” but it’s not in the traditional sense, because it’s set immediately post (actually, sort of during) Spider-Man 3 and thus one of them is dead. It’s more of a… I don’t know what it is. Let’s call it a character study of Mary Jane, a love letter to the Spider-Man Trilogy and a hate letter to the 2000s, with a LOT of deeply personal things thrown in there that you won’t actually recognize.

I’ve been working on it since 2021. Here’s the first two chapters.

God, I hope this turns out good.
