Hey so JK Rowling went full mask off and is advertising an explicitly terf store now.. Also sure is weird how TERF talking points usually consistently leave trans men out of these conversations and usually always direct their hateful rhetoric toward trans women.
Expecting them to be perfect and never make mistakes is setting yourself up to be an asshole.
Do you know how long it takes to write and publish a 60k novel for most published authors? Years. Plural.
That includes time spent writing multiple drafts and doing research and multiple rounds of edits. Access to a professional editor, and the ability to hire sensitivity readers. The list goes on and on and on.
Fan fic authors owe you nothing. They are churning out multiple novel length fics (or the equivalent in one shots) a year while still holding down school/jobs.
And you’re gonna jump down their throats because they wrote a pairing differently than you prefer??
Shut the fuck up.
Tags exists for a reason. Read them and move on if the fic is not for you.
I mean really. We all just lived through fucking 2020. Let people enjoy their FAKE gay porn in peace.
I’m a week late, but I wanted to stop by and say thank you for 5 years of Heartstopper. Five years, four books, and a TV show in the works… I can’t believe what a journey Heartstopper has been on. And none of it would have been possible without the support of Heartstopper’s online readers! So thank you everyone.
I know this hiatus is long, but it is necessary (otherwise my mental health, and the comic itself, will suffer!) and I thank you all so much for your patience! The comic will be coming back - I honestly don’t know exactly when yet, but Heartstopper is deeply important to me and there are still two more chapters of the story. I hope you’re excited!
