2024's Year-Long Participant's Favourite Fics Part One | Part Two

This probably took this person 3 seconds to do but it immediately told me that they liked my story enough to come back and read it again and they liked it again the second time.

Your favorite writers Do Not Know that you think about their stories after you read them. I generally assume that my stories make people happy for the few minutes they’re reading and then they never think about it again. To know that that’s not the case and that someone has returned just makes my little heart swell with joy.

The best part has been the people putting tags on their reblogs along the lines of “I’m totally going to do this now” and “I didn’t think authors would like something this simple but I can do this” and authors saying how much this type of comment also means to them.

The second best part was the person who went and read Worship because of this post and then commented on it.

An interesting part has been seeing what a kind of popular post does to your notifications.

do you know how many times I’ve been recommended a book solely because “it’s queer fantasy!”

very often i see players only stating one of these. either “i wanna open the door” or “i cast firebolt on the hay bale.”

D&D is so bad at teaching you how to play it that we often don’t realize how bad it really is until you start to consider that the basic language for taking actions in the game is something the players will be interacting with WAY MORE than they’ll even be rolling dice.

I as the DM need to be able to adjudicate whether or not dice need to be rolled and what DC they’re going to need to obtain their goal. Letting me know your intent lets everyone get what they want.

All of this of course comes out of the days of adversarial play, where you had to sucker the DM into saying YES to your bullshit plan before putting it into action, so players learned to keep their cards very close to their chest.
