Hey, fic writers and, if any of them read this words, fic binders: what's the etiquette with including author's notes in print??? Sometimes they tend to be crucial to text itself (like a footnotes), so it stands to reason they should be included, but idk? If so, how do you go about this with chaptered works?? Genuinely curious.

I wanted to dabble in fic binding for a long time and thought it might be a good excuse to dust off my typesetting n bookbinding skills. Maybe one multichap and one ficlet? Hmmm time will tell

More notebooks, this time with foiled covers. It's the craft foils you put through a laminator to apply (I did it for my zine so far, worked great). Some titles which I deemed appropriate and a jayvik butterfly-blast, bc of course I had to :P

Periodic rent-lowering-gunshots:

Fiction is not reality.

You can enjoy things in fiction that would be awful in the real world. Like playing a murderhobo in a game! In the real world, being or supporting a murderer-thief would be pretty damn awful, while in the game it's just good fun. Same with anything else you choose to do with the pixels on the screen, like kinks that don't affect anyone real, so they're okay in fiction, but would be pretty damn bad in real life.

No one else is responsible for your online experience. They are required not to harass you, but they are not and never will be obligated to not post about ships, kinks, or tropes you dislike just to avoid you seeing them. It's up to you to blacklist words or phrases, block tags, or even block users as needed to avoid seeing content that upsets you.

No one can force you to read anything against your consent. Any content you don't like seeing can be instantly avoided by closing out of the offending post/fic.

You are not owed an online experience free of discomfort.

Nothing that happens in your imagination can ever make you a bad person. Words you write or read about fictional characters will never make you a bad person.

The claim that media consumption influences real-life behavior is intellectually dishonest and serves only to excuse the behavior of real offenders.

Fiction is a safe way to explore horrifying or confusing concepts. Therapists agree that fiction, even (or especially) about taboo topics is a good coping mechanism, especially, but not exclusively, for trauma survivors. Fiction is to adults what play therapy is to children. This doesn't stop being true if the work in question is of a sexual nature.

Sex isn't an inherently worse or better motivation than anything else. A work written to create feelings of arousal isn't dirty, shameful, or in any way less pure than works written to entertain, provoke moral questions, or for other reasons. And worth noting is that multiple purposes can exist in the same story, especially fanfiction.

You aren't entitled to an explanation for why someone reads, writes, or otherwise enjoys certain works, kinks, tropes, ships, etc.

Result of a little over two months of paint making!

I used all the binder I made (recipe below) with most of the pigments I own. A few succesfull attempts at granulating watercolours were made🎨✨

Watercolor binder:

▫️8 parts distilled water ▫️4 parts powdered gum arabic (note that the liquid version would require different amounts of gum and water!) ▫️1 part linden or acacia (robinia) honey (they are the lightest, it won't interfere with the color) ▫️1 part glycerine + preservative: few drops of clove essential oil or for better results, sodium benzoate.

Mix gum arabic in warmed water. When it dissolves, add the rest of ingredients and stir until it mixes well together. Let it sit for about 24 hours, store in the fridge.

I used tablespoons and stored it in a small jar. The amount was enough to fill ~72 half pans or 36 full pans.

Thumbnails finished. 32 pages… still needs some shaving (want to cut 2-4 pages) and then I can start working on the dialogue, the hardest part for me💀

Rotating jayvik comic idea in my mind at light speed for days now, but I still can't get it coherent enough rghhhHHHH
