Do y'all think SMH will hit 10k hits before it ends?

I think/hope so. It's almost at 8k now and I still have like 5 more chapters to post, so it seems doable...

what's the most cancelable shit y'all do when ur not online

I'm unspeakably excited to share Chapter 16 of SMH this Wednesday, y'all have no idea

It's another favorite chapter of mine, top 3 chapters in the whole fic for sure

And you're going to either love me or hate me for it. I really don't think there's an in between

I kind of want to learn how to record podfics...

Had a fic idea today while brainstorming with a friend and I just need to get it out in the universe because I don't think I'll ever write it and I really want to read it.

Please steal this and write things if you want!

So, picture this:

"Reformed Villains" with voices in their heads/alternate personalities - getting together for a support group of sorts.

We've got Deadpool with his boxes, of course.

Throw in Harry Osborn post Hob Goblin for good measure.

Add in a Venom+Eddie Brock combo.

Maybe even a still somewhat Winter Soldier-y Bucky Barnes if you're feeling fancy.

All sent there on the request of our beloved Peter Parker, of course. He just wants them to be able to get to know some people with similar struggles.

Now I threw out that we could have Sam Wilson roped in as mediator because he's one of the only people well versed in healthy communication, but my friend had the idea of having Vision be the mediator instead. She argued that MCU Vision being the brainchild of Jarvis and Ultron makes him versed in the idea of having conflicting thoughts/beings floating around in his head, and he would have instantaneous access to therapy/self help information a la the Internet.

Either way, the interaction of the four above in some sort of support group situation could be a gold mine for fun shenanigans and I want to read it so bad oh my god!!!

If u want to write a story about a character that’s just you but hotter with a dark twisted backstory and magical powers and a pet falcon or something, I think u should just go ahead and do that. Who’s gonna stop you? The government?? Fuck the police.

Rolling Fake Dice

Rated M | 9 Chapters | Irondad make it MJ

"Could have sworn you had a curfew at some point." Her dad chirps from the couch with a book resting in his lap.

"You two picked the wrong person to stand guard if you're trying to enforce that again." She replies.

His shoulders don't shake how she thought they might. It's hard to know how the jokes that used to be fair game might land now. Before the blip, teasing about the unconventional (at points, lack of) parenting Tony had adopted through the years had been fair game. Sarcasm and prodding tender spots with humour was always how she and her dad had communicated best.

After the Blip, that doesn't feel as true anymore. The boundaries have changed and she doesn't know enough about what happened in those days to be sure of where the line has been drawn.

Now Complete

To new/discouraged writers:

You don’t have to have 100+ notes on everything you write to have quality writing. Keep writing.

You don’t need to have reviews praising the ground you walk on–you don’t even need readers at all. Keep writing.

You don’t need to come up with the most unheard-of plot lines and most accepted head canons to have quality writing. Keep writing.

And most importantly, you don’t have to have quality writing right now and that’s okay. Keep writing.

We all start somewhere. It takes a lot of courage to post something for complete strangers to read, but keep writing. Keep posting. Keep asking for feedback. Look for people to help you grow. And many years later, you might roll your eyes and feel secondhand embarrassment over your past self’s word choices and character development. But I really hope that when that happens, you then go and pick up a pen or open up a blank document and you keep writing, knowing how far you’ve come and how far you can go.

it’s so weird to me how there’s cliques and hierarchies within fandom spaces these days like. we’re all just fucking nerds. how are you gonna try to be popular amongst the nerds. how are you going to feel superior over your fellow nerds. at the end of the day you’re still a fucking nerd bestie

Reminders for new ao3 users (in no particular order):

- filter your searches like you would on a library website or in an online catalogue

- don’t post placeholders, fic searches, or recommendations as fics. DON’T! It’s against ao3 TOS

- there is no algorithm. ao3 sorts by date posted/updated unless you filter with specific search criteria

- ao3 is a non profit. that means it doesn’t sell ads to make money — it only survives on donations. this is why it can show you so many fics without ever flashing an ad or pop up at you!

- report fics that break TOS when you see them (I.e., placeholder fics, searches) to help other users navigate better

- the tag “dead dove, do not eat” doesn’t equate to gore/awfulness automatically. it is a complementary tag that enhances current tags. E.g., if the fic is tagged “gore” and “dead dove, do not eat” the author really wants you to mind the gore tag

- most fandoms have a variation of “no beta, we die like (x character)” and they all link back to the “No beta” tag

- publishing a new fic sometimes means it won’t show up in the fandom/pairing tag for a few minutes

- subscribers receive update emails at different times, depending on when you update/publish your fic. there’s no good way to predict when an e-mail will be sent — it can be in 30 seconds, or two hours later

- some fics are restricted by authors to those with ao3 accounts only. if you see a blue lock in the upper right corner, that fic is only visible to logged in ao3 users

- you can block commenters now! this didn’t use to be a thing

- updating a fic just to stay at the top of the pairing tag/fandom tag is a dick move. unless you’re legitimately editing or adding chapters, this just annoys readers and fellow authors, and people will skip over your fic

And just because it’s not a romantic relationship doesn’t mean it’s not a good relationship 🙃
