chappy or two for WTF U!

it’s good to be an ally, but please understand that writing fics can potentially harm us more than help us. especially if what you’ve written is inaccurate, insensitive, romanticizes, triggers, etc whether you see it or not. after all, this isn’t about you, your intentions, or your perspective, it’s about the impact of your writing and what we see. if a black person feels your fic is harmful not helpful, listen! we have voices that want to be heard, especially in regard to the BLM movement.

ALSO keep in mind that there are MANY black people who don’t want it written at all because of reasons like these. there are suggestions given within that post, but you can also click on any of the links below that promote action. your sympathy and kindness are nice, so why stop there? we want all of your support, esp in a manner that moves BLM forward.

below the cut is a compilation of tips from other African Americans besides myself. I will not be giving out names/handles due to the unsafety risk that comes with that. we all agreed to keep each other safe and this is how. if that prevents you from finding this information credible then that is on you — i refuse to compromise black lives for your sake. if you’d like to contribute to this, just message me!

if you still want to write about BLM and offer comfort to blacks, here are some suggestions:

for now, you can consider this a “semi-hiatus” or wtv but this’ll probably be my normal posting schedule going forward ㅋㅋㅋ — a fic here and there sporadically.

4 entries to the Fictober raffle!

i’ve noticed a lot of people have their submissions open and they get other bloggers sharing fanart by saving the image and sending.

Stop.

by doing so, the person who receives it is reposting the work and that’s something artists do not allow, especially without consent. reposting is the same as stealing — even if someone says “credit to owner / this isn’t mine / did you see this fanart? / i couldn’t find the original artist but look”

you’re not only putting the receiver at risk, but instead of praising the artist, you’re giving them a big slap in the face because you’re doing at least one of these things:

ignoring their consent

not crediting them

taking attention away from their original post

if you really like someone’s artwork then share the link to their work!! the original link — not a post on pinterest or weheartit or wattpad or some other place where it’s reposted. share the link to the original source so that artist can get the recognition they deserve without harm.

and if you’re getting artwork submitted to you:

Stop Posting It.

you’re only hurting the artist and potentially putting yourself at risk. i see a LOT of fanfic writers do this. this is not okay!! if someone copied and pasted your entire fic and submitted it to someone then your identity would be completely erased from it. no one would interact with your original post if they saw that one instead. and even if someone said “look at this (it’s not mine)” then you are still not getting any credit.

i’m opening up 10 slots for commissions! once i finish those (timing depends on the size of each) i’ll reopen commissions normally. any excess funds will definitely assist me with other personal emergency bills ;-;
