#i love fanfic writers

[wickedwitchofthesouth]

The feminine urge to write an atyd level fic for new gen Harry Potter where the slytherins have their own marauders-esque friend group and scorpius and albus are the main focus ship. UGHHHHH THE URGUE TO WRITE A FATHER SON ARC FOR AL AND HARRY THAT GOES INTO DETAIL ABOUT HARRYS TRAUMA AND HOW IT EFFECTS HIS PARENTING!! The heavy looming weight of the urge to write a strained sibling relationship for James and albus because they are THEE prodigal son and the cursed child.

THE WAY I WOULD WRITE THE PERFECT FRIENDS TO LOVERS FOR SCOR AND AL . the way I would add the best oc who the fandom will fall in love with and regard as canon for years to come UGHHHH

Not trying to be messy or bitchy on main, but why don't y'all review fanfics anymore? Why don't y'all comment on the stories y'all have read and liked? Like, deadass, as a writer/creator myself, if I slave away and put my whole ass pussy into creating and crafting these really good stories, and nobody reviews them, what's my incentive to keep creating?

And I've heard it be said thousands of times that you should do it for fun! You should do it because blah blah blah! And I get it! I really! It's not good to create solely because of x, y, and z and that's valid, but! I'm also doing this shit for free. Like, fanfic authors bust their asses writing for free. This is a free consumption, and I'm just saying, if you like or love the stories written, why can't y'all let it be known? Why can't y'all comment and review it? It literally doesn't take even a third of the effort it took the writers themselves to write the damn shit.

I remember when I first got into fanfiction and I was in awe, okay? There were so many wonderful stories and authors and you bet your right testicle I made sure I left reviews. Hell, I would even PM them and let them know that hey, I really loved that fic you wrote! This is what it meant to me and thank you so much for not only writing it, but being brave enough to share it with the world because regardless of the ship/fandom/etc., that takes guts!

And y'all won't even do the bare minimum. And then have the nerve to wonder why the quality of writing is shit or why people are leaving the fandom spaces. It makes no sense that stories that are so horribly written and out of character have hundreds, if not thousands of reviews, but the actual good shit barely has fifty, and that's me being generous.

I'm just tired of putting all this effort into shit that I'm not getting anything back from because it's not enough to love what you do. Like, why is it bad that I want people to leave long or nice comments on my work? Why is that me being greedy to want some positive engagement on my content? Or unless I write for popular ships, people won't read my shit? Which isn't bad, because if I like a ship, regardless of if it's popular or canon or so on and so forth, I'm gonna ship it, but still.

And not even that's a guarantee that people will read it, and I don't like don't gimmicky shit. I don't like feeling like I have to dim the quality of my work to get people to fuck with my shit, and it's not me being insecure in my writing because I'm a damn good writer. I know what I bring to the fucking table, but how are we supposed to keep the fandom spaces alive if nobody's engaging with shit anymore?

How can I write when there's so much to read?!

[davnittbraes]

ASK GAME???

Ok sure. I don’t usually do these things but I just can’t say no to @shirks-all-responsibilities 🥰

Nickname: I am not, nor have I ever been, cool enough to have a nickname

Sign: I’ve always been partial to the Deer Crossing sign, they look like they’re having fun - jk Cancer though in terms of sea creatures I’m more octopus than crab

Height: 5’10” (no I do not play basketball or rugby, I trip over my own two feet at least twice a day, sure I’ll get that thing down from the top shelf for you)

Last thing you googled: Greta vs Andrew (ICONIC ❤️)

Song stuck in my head: Guns and Ships from Hamilton (FOR THREE DAYS SEND HELP)

Number of followers: haven’t done a porn bot sweep lately so I’ll say probably 80? Hello friends and sexy ladies with vaguely suspicious links in their bios 👋

Amount of sleep: as in last night? This week? My entire life? Doesn’t matter the answer is Never Enough

Dream job: Writing from a lil hobby farm in the middle of nowhere with a couple horsies and some chickies and a garden and a lot of trees and maybe like a babbling brook or something

Wearing: a hoodie and leggings

Movie/book that summarizes you: Chime by Franny Billingsley (I would like to live in this book please and thanks)

Fav song currently: impossible to say, depends on the mood of the minute (NOT Guns and Ships I’m sorry Lin Manuel but I’m now DREAMING this song)

Aesthetic: uhhhh slightly alternative lumberjack? Idk I’m a former emo kid and Canadian so there’s a lot of weird hair colours and flannel involved 

Favourite author: also impossible to say, but my favourite genre of authors is Fanfic

Random fun fact: the excretion from a snail’s foot is so thick it can crawl along the edge of a knife. Thanks Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader.

“This book is a dark romance, this book will trigger you, it’s so dark” shut the fuck up

Shut

Shut it

Fan fic writers the only motherfuckers committing to the darkness! To the depravity! To the deadest dove! These book published bitches ain’t doing shit!

[roosterbox]

To every fanfic writer (in any of my multitudes of fandoms) who has ever tagged their work with “Hurt No Comfort,”

Thank you.

No seriously, thank you.

This entire fucking year has been one clusterfuck after another for me, and it’s not over yet. I’ve been using a lot of fanfic for comfort, which seems counterproductive to my initial message, but hang on.

My heart and emotions are a lot softer than normal these days (which is saying a lot!), and all I want to read are happy endings. Fluff. Soft boys in love. You know? And absolutely nothing sucks quite as much as going into a fic expecting hurt/comfort, but having no comfort be found. Honestly with how vulnerable I’ve been feeling, reading too many of those might actually have broken me. There were a couple that were untagged that hit me pretty hard.

So… thank you, I guess. For tagging properly and considerately. I’m not reading anything with that tag any time soon, but still. Thanks. I appreciate you ❤️

do u ever just rapidly start shaking with happiness when u see that the author of a fic u very chaotically replied to- bc u were still squealing and on a proverbial sugar rush after reading it- replied back with the same enthusiasm and u realise ur little chaos comment made someone's day
