I feel like this is an unpopular opinion, but more people should read incomplete/unfinished/in-progress fanfics.
I've noticed this huge trend where creators on tiktok and tumblr who will be explaining how to use Archive Of Our Own to new users and they always say "and make sure to scroll down and click completed only" or how people will go out of their way to mention they only read completed fics 'because they were traumatized when they forgot to check the dates and didn't realize this fic hadn't been updated since 2012'.
The thing is - I think by not engaging with and/or actively avoiding writer's WIPs readers are potentially adding to the aggregate of abandoned works. Now this obviously isn't the case for all abandoned fics, anything from major life events, to loss of interest, to getting busy can be a reason for a fic getting abandoned - but at least on some level I just know that writers are quitting while they're ahead when they aren't garnering any response or feedback because reading WIPs has become unpopular. If you're worried about reading something that hasn't been updated since 2012 then you can use the date updated function to sort out old fics.
Anyways, support your favorite fanfic writers by engaging with their WIPs.
#writing stuff#this is so important!!#the time an author needs the most encouragement is WHILE they're writing the WIP#and there are so so many beautiful stories out there that are worth it even if they never get finished#you're missing out of SO MUCH if you refuse to read WIPs#and not only that if you read and comment on WIPs there's a chance you could be the reason IT GETS DONE#if everyone only reads completed works them writers might as well only write oneshots#why put out something for others when there is no one there to appreciate it#I get writing for yourself but it's still discouraging to put out a chapter and get no feedback#it tells a writer that no one wants to read that story#so why bother putting the dozens/hundreds of hours into finishing it?#likewise I know people who write the entire story before posting#but if they get no feedback... why put out the rest of the chapters even if it's finished?#just enjoy it for yourself

sometimes writing isn’t about talent. sometimes it’s about sitting in your chair and suffering for 45 minutes until a single sentence crawls out of your skull

what ppl defending kids on ipads don’t seem to understand is that there are other ways to keep kids occupied. my mom had a whole bag full of little toys and games for me to play with while waiting in lines at disney world. once your kid is like 7 or 8 they can read a book. they can color. or they can literally just sit there and imagine things. i did that a lot as a kid.
#jeebuz#it's one thing to not learn complicated math because we now have calcuators#another thing altogether to not learn basic life skills like motor movement and emotional regulation

#wait what the heckies i didn't know that about the end#hubby has facial recognition for his phone and fingerprint stuff but I hate those#every time I saw that progression in technology I'm reminded of old spy movies#where they cut off fingers and gouge out eyes just to unlock something#my passwords are in my brain and my brain is a sieve#if i'm in pain i will NOT remember

This is just to say
I have not read
the new fic
you posted,
and which you were
probably hoping
would have more
comments by now.
Forgive me--
it looks so cool and delicious,
but this week
is the worst,
and I need more brain
to devour your
plummy purple genius.

No More Zero Comments Project
Hi! Here's a big masterpost for everything you need to know about this project!
The No More Zero Comments (NM0C) Project is dedicated to reducing the number of fics on AO3 with no comments. This is a multifandom community effort with very few rules which you can very easily undertake alone, but hey, why not join us?
The goal is simple: find fics with no comments, read them and leave the author a comment. If you want, you can go out and find fics on your own, but we also have a handy spreadsheet full of fics for you to browse!
You can find the spreadsheet here. There are tonnes of different fandoms to choose from. It will be updated regularly with new fics, so check back as often as you like.
Do you have a fic with zero comments? You can submit it here to be added to the spreadsheet. There is no limit to how many you can submit, and no limits on what you can submit. Any fandom, any category, any rating, no matter how old it is. Yes, even explicit fics. We aren't picky around here. You can also submit other people's fics if you wish.
All I ask is, if you submit your own fics, try and comment on some too! Balance, equality, etc.
The only real rule for submissions is no AI. This blog is vehemently anti-AI and will not accept any fics that use it.
If you read a fic from the spreadsheet, please let me know here so I can remove the fic from the spreadsheet. If you see a fic on the spreadsheet that has a comment, don't fret. I'll get around to removing it soon. Admin's timezone is GMT and I'm most active in the evenings.
Have a question? Feel free to ask!
A few more bits and pieces of information under the cut!
Who runs this blog?
That'd be me, Izak, better known as @lightningzombie! I run this blog alone for now. And yes, I did put my own fics into the spreadsheet. I put it up to a vote and people said I could!
Why did you decide to do this?
Frustration with the lack of comments on my fics and the death of comment culture in general. Bewilderment when I saw a fic that had 1200 kudos and no comments. The joy that leaving 100 comments and receiving 20+ during the Febuwhump commentfest brought me. Boredom. Many reasons!
Is there a prize/competition?
Nope! No incentives whatsoever. Just the joy of fan fiction, of commenting, and community spirit.
Will you do events?
Yes, I plan to! I'm not sure what yet, though.
"I don't know how to comment!"
Yes, you do. "I like this" is a comment. "How dare you do that to [insert blorbo here]" is a comment. "<3" is a comment. "KAJSDAKSDHJ WHYYYYY????" is a comment. "I am rapidly approaching your location" is a comment. Just be kind!
How long will it take me to get a comment?
Dunno. Some people get them within minutes, some hours, some days. Depends on many things. Be patient!
I submitted something but it hasn't been added or removed
I run this blog and the spreadsheet completely alone and manually. Any submissions will be handled as and when i have time. Be patient with me, I'll get to it!
Happy commenting! <3
