I’ve been so scared to share ideas because I’m worried other will put them down. There are much more popular fics out there and that’s great, they’re so cool and I love them! Realistically I know that stories will be similar and it can’t be avoided, but I’m still frozen because I’ve seen how things can go south. And I wonder to myself “if there is a similar thing do I give credit to more popular fic if these ideas were my own and still seem similar?” What is good writer’s etiquette? 🥺 I just wish I could share too and wish I could talk to others about my silly little ideas. There’s this big fear holding me back, and somehow it’s gotten a bit lonely coming up with ideas for world building and characters that made me happy.

Thank you for reading! Im sorry if this seems sad I don’t want to bring the energy down sorry sorry I hope you have a day full of sunshine ☀️ and a night full of starlight 🌟! Thank you again!, please keep up the beautiful writing! -sillylily

Hey there darling!! Thank you for the sweet compliments! Don’t worry about a thing, I understand what you’re asking and I have my view on the matter here:

As a fic writer, I do not mind in the slightest about repeat request scenarios that have already been featured by other blogs or writers. Each author is different, and their take on a prompt can vary wildly, even on the most specific of prompts! Characterization, plot points, all sorts of things can be different, so if you want to send in something someone else has already written or talk about your spin on something someone else wrote, I have no qualms with it!

I know some authors are annoyed by repeat requests across blogs, but I don’t really understand why? I’ve never seen any harm in it, and I have seen so many prompts on other blogs that I would love to write myself, given the chance to! And I’d love to see other author’s take on some of the prompts I’ve received, like the angsty ones from way back!

So to make a long story short, please send in whatever you like! You can reference where you got the idea from if you want, I’ve had that before! Otherwise, I see no problem with it! Send away! I’m excited to hear your thoughts and ideas on things!
