Explain the title, Foul For You?

Fall, fool, foul. I wanted to play with these three words that bring along different meanings to each of them. Fall for you; falling in love with someone, letting your heart find its tether to that other heart. Fool for you; once you’ve let your heart fall, you inevitably become almost akin to a fool, knowing that whatever happened, you’d do anything for the one you’ve let take your heart away. And finally, foul for you; love isn’t without sacrifices, and just like a game of cards or a match of soccer, you’ll be bound to commit a foul, face a challenge, make a mistake.

Fall, fool, foul.

Music you like to listen to as you write?

I listen to a wide range of titles, but specifically for this story, since I had to get in the mood of sadness and despair and heartbreak most times, a lot of Sam Smith and Halsey helps. You can listen to my writing playlist here, which you’ll find on the foreword as well.

But on top of that, I almost always find myself in a slump, not knowing how to properly express myself or being cautious with my choice of words and plotlines. This is my very first full-blown, chaptered fanfic, and
