Just saw a TikTok complaining about fanfics that didn't have "enough dialogue" because "reading more than three sentences" was hard.

I'm not against heavy dialogue-oriented fics; they are fun, but... that's a script. You want to read a fucking script, hope you know that. A writer isn't "bad" because they are... you know, writing. Just say it isn't your thing and move on, but categorize something as "bad" because you lack the ability to fucking read... ain't the author's problem; it seems like a "you" one.

#im training myself into a descriptive writing style and reading that was a slap in the face... it's not that i dont like dialogue but #i need to convey feelings showing them as I want to I can't have that just with dialogue I WISH I was good enough to do that tho #because there's people who can but im not so-#the other day i saw a girl complaining about a book having WORDS what the fuck is WRONG WITH YOU #SHOW ME FEELINGS SHOW ME METAPHORS SHOW ME YOUR SOUL IN WRITTEN WORDS #I JUST THINK people aren't reading as much as they used to... just a thought after seeing people on booktok #like... you have books.... for what exactly? pretty colors? covers? just to say you have them for the aesthetics and go home #???? god ... the art of the written word is beautiful and unique to humans it lets out your soul and your spirit in paper bringing your min #into the physical word and you are just gonna call it BORING what the HELL IS WRONG WITH THAT AAAAAAAAAAAAAA #KAFKA WE REALLY ARE IT NOW #in a world where everything has to be fast and immediate we should look into art as something worth waiting for... idk man my thoughts #maybe im just too dense with my feelings with creation and ain't that deep but to me it is actually...#ive wanted to be a writer since I learned how to read not because I liked to write but because my soul gets a little lighter when I do it
