do fic readers know that their comments actually influence the course of the story sometimes? i don't mean in a "you need to write it this way because i say so 😡" type of comment, i mean when people are asking questions or really engaging with the plot and the themes in the comments they sometimes bring up things that i didn't even think of, or dig into parts of the story that i've overlooked, or get really interested/fixated on something i was going to just kind of glance over--and it has me going 'oh wait that's actually really interesting, that's a good point' and fully adding or tweaking or changing things about the story going forward. i'm literally adding an entire additional chapter to something right now because someone's comment had me like "oh i didn't dig into that as much as i could have." you have impact!

Commander Fox straight up not having a good time

And me neither. Got some news today that someone very close and dear to me got hurt and I'm not coping well with it. She'll be okay but it shouldn't have happened to her. It shouldn't happen to anyone. Kriff this world we're currently living in.

Ayo happy Monday ~

Sorry for always venting in this place, I don't really have anywhere else to go to. I'll be back with spreading ask box positivity some other day, I just need to let this one sink in.

a lot of stories treat romance like it makes the relationship between two characters self explanatory and to be honest it doesn’t

Being playfully rude with someone who doesn't know you on the internet is actually identical to just being rude

don’t forget, you can always go back and delete that from your tags or summary!

... every time you neg your art or fic in the main tags, a fandom old refuses to share your stuff. just post, your performance of cringe is stopping people from welcoming you into a community of fans who spend time enjoying the fandom.

Further, some authors may never even find out the lawsuit is happening. The court's suggested notification scheme "would require class claimants to themselves notify other potential rightsholders," groups said, overlooking the fact that it cost Google $34.5 million "to set up a 'Books Rights Registry' to identify owners for payouts under the proposed settlement" in one of the largest cases involving book authors prior to the AI avalanche of lawsuits.

If you're an author, please use this database to see if you could qualify for that sweet GenAI lawsuit money.

I have never ever ever in my life asked someone to blaze my posts.

But if you want to throw me some pennies blaze this. I want ALL OF THE AUTHORS to know that they have the opportunities to get some sweet sweet GenAI lawsuit money.

Like to charge. Reblog to cast that Anthropic will have to pay out the ass.

anyway the thing about fanfic is that it's not essentially bad or good; it's essentially amateur. some people are absolutely out there writing award-worthy prose (some fic writers ARE award-winning writers IRL!), but that's not the point. the point is that we're all telling campfire stories. it's a community, and it's a way to spend some more time in the worlds and stories that we love.
