Here are the chapters I currently have in the works:
Flames of Shadow and Sky
A Truce of Trust
in conflict with my heart (new story)
Star Light, Star Flight
Dreams of Twilight
Where Safety Feels Like A Stranger (new story)
I Believe (Deep Within)
On hold:
I Believe (Deep Within)
in conflict with my heart
I expect to have Flames of Shadow and Sky as well as A Truce of Trust done sooner rather than later. Star Light, Star Flight, Dreams of Twilight, and Where Safety Feels Like A Stranger will take longer to do because of the slower nature of writing things by hand.
The latter two are on hold due basically the same reason. I'm currently doing research into the mindset of abusive men and how that impacts the people around them. I need to understand how abusive men think to effectively portray them. In I Believe, Jacques will abuse and demean Blake for two in-universe weeks. For in conflict, that's my genderbent Weiss/Winter AU. Being Atlassian men, they're going to have shades of abuser mindsets. In order to write them effectively and realistically, I need the research.
With everything being the way it is, I'll try to wrap up Flames, Truce, SLSF, Dreams, and Safety within the next couple of weeks. I may not get to posting anything more once December rolls around because I want that to be my research month to try to get this stuff done. I may do some of the December prompts if the site publishes some, but do not expect me to do all 31 of them. I tried that in October and that didn't work out so well.

I'm currently trying to wrap up all the outstanding chapters of my works (save two) and I cranked out 7k today. I'm at the point where the chapters were barely started, 1000 words or less. So the fact I cranked out 7k for just two chapters today shows how much work I put into my stories. I wrote for probably close to 4 hours today.
My main goal this month was just to do 10k, because I knew I couldn't do 50k. I lowered the word count to something that I knew would be manageable for me. I definitely hit the 10k goal today and I'll see how much I can crank out tomorrow lol.

There. I imported the vast majority of my works from AO3. You can read as much as you want to.
I also discovered the Series feature by complete accident so I'll be making use of that once I get home from work.
I got Carry You all formatted because I can tell there's no way my attention span is going to let me do anything that requires focus today. I'm working on Boulevard of Broken Dreams now.
I promise I'm working on the formatting issues with Carry You. I'm just only doing a few chapters at a time because I don't want to wear myself down. Once I get done with that, I'll start adding to Boulevard of Broken Dreams as well as Stolen Time: The Bells of Prison.
I changed my mind when it comes to uploading other fics. I uploaded The Sugar Flower Cafe, Chained Trickster, All I Have Is Now, and Reflections since they're shorter stories that didn't take too much time to reformat. I also started work on Carry You and the first couple chapters there.
Boulevard and Bells are going to take a fair amount of time and I'm not going to worry about them until after I finish Carry You. Both are just really big undertakings due to their lengths. Bells is 86k and Boulevard is 175k, almost 176k. Carry You is 162k. These stories are incredibly long and will take a lot of time to properly reformat for this site.

-Reflections (a Fire Emblem: Fates fic with a Leokumi focus)

I have a lot more works than this but these are the ones I plan on transferring over to this site. I have a ton of Pokemon Ranger stuff and other oneshots posted to AO3, but I don't plan on transferring each and every work over.
This is also going to take quite a bit of time to move over because some of these stories a like 80k+ and I need to format each and every chapter.
I'm at least uploading the first chapter of each fic so I can get the covers set up.

I finished up Elixirs and Star Light, Star Flight as far as formatting goes. I still have to finish Carry You, but that'll be something I piecemeal over time. I'm not sitting there for like 8 hours and formatting all of it in one go. I might do 2-3 chapters per day so I don't overload and overwhelm myself.
I also have many other works I want to post. For my RWBY stuff, I want to post my Moonflower Universe oneshots but that'll be in a collection due to the fact I want those in in-universe chronology. I also have several Fire Emblem pieces I want to bring over but those are going to take some time. My two Three Houses longfics are both substantial in size. Stolen Time: The Bells of Prison and Boulevard of Broken Dreams are both quite long. Bells only has like 11 chapters, but it's 80k-100k. Boulevard has 150k+ and 30ish chapters. Moving that over is going to be a pretty big undertaking due to its scope being on par with Carry You and wanderer's lullaby.
However, I will not be bringing over my full AO3 backlog. I'm mostly bringing over my main RWBY universe stuff and then any longfics that are currently being worked on and updated. It's mostly just oneshots that I'm not bringing over along with some worldbuilding stuff. If you want to see everything I have on offer, you can find me on AO3 or SquidgeWorld Archive under the same username.

I'm not 100% certain I'll get all of the formatting done today. I'm doing what I can, but this is a pretty massive undertaking since I have hundreds of thousands of words posted already. wanderer's lullaby and Carry You will take the longest because they both have an immense amount of chapters.
Update: I'll finish things as I feel up to it. I've mentally hit my limit while in the middle of Bad Dream.

I'm aware of the formatting issues and I'll hopefully be taking care of them tomorrow before I post anything else. I already plan on going through all of my currently posted works to put spaces between the paragraphs and make things more amenable to mobile screens. AO3 automatically puts spaces between paragraphs while this site doesn't. I'll fix it all manually hopefully tomorrow.

I have a ton more works to crosspost over here from AO3 (and SquidgeWorld Archive by extension). I'm nowhere near done spamming the RWBY tag which I pretty much have a monopoly on at this point, save that one Ladybug fic that likely started the tag. I have way more RWBY fics, Fire Emblem fics (Three Houses and Fates mainly, but also some Awakening stuff), and Pokemon Ranger stuff. It's going to take me quite awhile to crosspost everything, but I'm looking forward to it!

Star Light, Star Flight has an update in the works. I'll just need to look over all of my information first and see where to take the story next.
It'll be kind of nice to write a story where I don't have to constantly flip through tons of information. I love my fantasy stories especially my Nytheris ones, but having to flip through pages and pages and pages of notes can be kind of tedious and tiring to do. Between Luthara (Count On Me), Nytheris, and Illyria, I have a 1.5" binder nearly packed to capacity.
