Incredibly fucking slow at it 🤧
i fixed it
Ao3 version that lets you open the 'director's cut' where I, the author, explain every detail in excruciating detail to you and what it is in reference to.
@bonsaibovine being absolutely correct in the tags
Legit. Ask me anything you want to know about my fics.
someone I follow on the bird app just announced they’re starting a very exclusive private fic server because they and a bunch of other people want to talk about how much they love the fics they’re reading, and as an author can I just say that a really great place to talk about a fic you love is in the comments for that fic
I understand that people are trying to create safe spaces, but as the number of comments that I get on my fics dwindles with each passing year, knowing these spaces exist where my fics are being discussed, places that I am excluded from, makes me want to write fic LESS
I mean I guess who cares, right, because if I stop writing, there’s 10,000 other people that will continue…but if you participate in a fic “book club” server and you say nice things there about a fic you loved, maybe copy and paste that into a comment on AO3?
the only thing fanfic writers are asking for in return for hours of hard work is attention. please don’t rob us of the one thing that we hope for when we hit “post”
this is directly related to this post I made about how fanfic authors now are treated like content mills, and not like valued members of a creative community who thrive on interaction. for the past decade, we’ve watched the fandom ecosystem disrupted over and over, as NSFW fan artists seek safety by putting their work behind paywalls, and self-conscious fic readers squirrel away their feelings in invite-only communities
an easy way to do your part to fight against the evils perpetrated by social media is to leave a comment on a fanfic you love
but don’t take my word for it – here are some responses that my fellow authors have left on this post:
The fact I had a fic that was fairly beloved and NO ONE commented on it because it was all being done in a fucking book club server made me want to scream.
I haven’t updated that fic in two years now.
I cannot express enough how imperative it is to show the writer how much you love their work. The comments don’t have to be novels themselves - even just an “I loved this so much!” Or keyboard smashing works wonders to keep the writer going. Please, we need to bring back supporting writers and artists now more than ever!!!
PLUS, plus…if people are talking about fic in private servers and not telling the authors, those people get the idea that the fic writer is “big.” Meanwhile the fic writer is sitting there, staring at a Google doc, struggling to find the motivation to write the next chapter, with 2 comments on a 20k fic.
They don’t feel big. They don’t feel appreciated. They don’t feel motivated. And they might stop writing or shelve their fic, never knowing that people were loving it in private.
Honestly this is the same for social media threads or even on this very app. If you can, tag the author. A lot of us have our socials in our AO3 profiles.
Feedback is lovely. Knowing what people like, what people enjoy in our writing, it’s so encouraging.
IF YOU BELONG TO A BOOK CLUB SERVER, THE CHANGE CAN START WITH YOU:
MAKE IT A COMMUNITY NORM TO GUSH ABOUT A FIC AND THEN COPY AND PASTE THAT SHIT INTO THE COMMENT BOX.
ENCOURAGE AND CELEBRATE SUCH BEHAVIOR AMONG MEMBERS.
GIVE BACK TO THE AUTHORS WHO HAVE GIVEN YOU SO MUCH
Like, it’s not even really about getting “repaid” so much as it is that we want to be part of the conversation and community too. That’s why we wrote and posted the fic - we want to have those discussions about characterization and omg that one moment in the last episode and etc. The fic is our opener. And when no one says anything where we can see, how can we be part of the discussion and community we want so badly?
me, closing document: this is awful and pointless
random commenter on ao3: this made me smile (:
me, opening document: guess i’ll write 50k more
get off ai and join an rp server. you must
to everyone saying “oh i’m too scared of human contact/i can’t find anyone”
1. i promise, in an rp server, everyone is as much of an awkward nerd as you. you are not going to be crucified in the garden for being a bit shy
2. disboard is a great place to find to find rp servers, so is tumblr “look up *insert fandom* rp” and you’ll probably find one. if not, make one! i’m sure you have friends who want to join
the world is your oyster
i love seeing people in here advertise their own rp servers, and other people deciding to actually join some. go forth and roleplay my dear friends
when i say get off ai, i don’t mean “rp with humans but keep ai as a sidechick”, i mean get off ai. it’s an autocorrect powered by stolen writing, get your ass off
also i saw someone say we should be having kids only rp with c.ai because it’s “safer”. we are not letting kids have formative experiences with a fucking robot

Saw Newsies in London recently and I got a blast from the past. Decided to draw two of my old fave newsies 🗞️📰
Pulitzer: I trust you know my daughter, Katherine-
Spot: Pulitzer, I know. I have newsies in literally every part of the city. I don’t give a flying fuck about that, now, *whips out reading glasses and knife* I’d like to talk contracts.

Ask me about Blush they're all I can think about atm
outsiders and boring normal people and fandom newbies always think that buckwild kinky porn fanfiction is the strangest fandom hobby but they are wrong.
the strangest fandom hobby is plotty fanfiction, the kind that requires research, because engaging in this hobby makes no goddamned sense.
it doesn’t even give anybody masturbation material, which is at least a logical and admirable goal that contributes to the betterment of society, or at least society’s solitary orgasms.
in other news i hope the cia spyware monitoring my internet usage understands that i’m googling information about smuggling drugs in thailand because i want the details to be right in a single paragraph in a 10,000 word story about a gay mafia guys.
this post has been making the rounds again and i just want to state for the record that it is a fucking delight to read in the tags all the random things people research for their fanfic and art. fandom, i love you. i love you with your flood maps and medical procedures and tentacle biology and historical fashion and traditional handcrafts and conlangs and urban geography and literally everything else. i am completely sincere about this. the enthusiasm with which people embrace detailed, deep, and often obscure research, just because they want to get it right, because they want to create something rich and interesting, it makes me feel better about the world. i adore it.
