Dear W. Story

Not going to lie… I wasn’t that invested in Bridgerton… until Season 3 happened.
One episode in, and suddenly it hit me… hard.
The tension. The pining. The transformation. Polin grabbed me by the heart and never let go.

I binged Part 1, devoured the book (meh), and waited weeks for Part 2, only to be left hungry for more. So, I found refuge in the one place where Penelope and Colin get all the scenes they deserve: fanfiction.

Except… I quickly got lost.

I’d never read fanfictions of my life before, and…
Too many tabs, scattered links, hidden gems buried in threads or social posts, weird words (AU? HEA? Canon?)… w*t*f!

That’s when my web designer brain kicked in:
✨ What if I built a website to gather all the best Polin fics in one place?

So, there it is!
A personal project, created on a whim, fueled by obsession, and slowly built on quiet evenings when real life takes a break.

My Purpose

This site exists because I needed:

  • A place to organize all my favorite fics
  • A soft space to escape the real world for a bit
  • And honestly… the joy of creating something just for fun again (like when I was 15 and made fansites 🤓)

I’m not a native English speaker, so curating and writing in English is a challenge I fully embrace.
This little cocoon helps me improve, express myself, and connect with others across the world who feel the same fluttery, aching joy that is Polin.

What you’ll find here:

  • 📝 Handpicked fic recs, spoiler-free and lovingly curated
  • 🔍 Tags, tropes & moods to find exactly the vibe you’re craving
  • 💔 Mostly angst with HEA. I can’t read unhappy endings these days. Don’t worry, I got you.
  • 📚 Themed lists for very specific moods (ex: “Penelope runs away” or “Colin jealous”)
  • 🤓 Guides for fanfiction newbies (like I was last year)
  • 🕯️ And soon, light updates & resources for fellow Polin lovers

It’s just the begining…

Dear Wallflower is still in its early days. It’s not perfect, not complete, and very much a side project I update slowly — but it’s made with care and passion.

If you have a fic to recommend, a list idea, or just want to share your thoughts:
please leave a comment, an email, or send me a message on Tumblr. I’d love to hear from you.

Thanks for being here.
Get cozy, grab a tea, and let’s get lost in this world together.

🌷 Jane
