u know the best part about commenting and getting comments on fic? i have made so many amazing friends just because we kept commenting on each others’ work.
i have met some of my writer friends in person. i send them mail and care packages. we talk regularly and support each other outside of fandom-space. i once woke up at 3 in the morning to attend a virtual wedding half way across the world.
it’s lovely and amazing and i love fandom and i love my writer friends. and that love started by simply yelling about each others stories in the comments on AO3, discord, and tumblr.
