Under the Moonlight

THIS WILL NEVER NOT BE FUNNY 

obviously this probably fucking sucks to hear as a trans guy but it’s pretty shitty to cis men as well who do not deserve to hear it and honestly it’s not even helpful for men who kinda do deserve to hear it! all you’re doing is adding to hatred on both sides and that literally helps no one

i’m very glad people in the tags have been talking about race and stuff which is something i probably should’ve mentioned in the main post

I’m not sure if this will be helpful to anyone, but you literally do not have to be a good writer to write and post fan fiction. Yes you will naturally get better at writing and finding your voice the more you do it but you do not have to be or become a professional level writer to enjoy writing and sharing fics. It’s common to hear people praise fic writers by saying their work is better than published books, and while I think this comes from a good place, that’s not the norm or expectation. There is also a sentiment that fic writing is “good practice” for becoming a better writer or doing something else later, but if fic is the only creative writing you ever do that is literally okay. Your technical skill does not mean you cannot have fun and build community with your writing, or that other people cannot love and find meaning in your work.
