Welcome to Zhang's Video, can I recommend you anything to rent?

Jack Lanelle in Zhang's Video from my WIP: Static House

Photo ID and Taglist Under Cut.

[ID: Digital drawing of my OC Jack Lanelle, a young, somewhat tanned skinned man with dark curly hair and heavy eyelids, wearing a long sleeved, wrinkled red button up shirt over a dark tee and jeans, standing behind a counter with a small TV set sitting on it with a multi-coloured, static-ridden no signal screen. On the wall behind him is a shelf stacked with VHS tapes and a large VHS tape shaped sign that reads "Zhang's Video Rental," as well as a few smaller signs that read: "New Horror! Rent Now!," "Support Your Local Businesses," and a circular smiley face, "Be Kind, Rewind!" End ID]

My taglist for this WIP is old because I've been kind of stagnant with it, but tagging it anyway: @after-nine-at-the-oasis, @quadraphonictypewriter, @mary-is-writing, @avian-writes, @writting-in-blood, @carminasolis, @odysseywritings, @aetherwrites, @muchtowriteabout-nuthin, @the-lighthouse-lit

no you have to contribute to your fandom if you don't want it to die. most fandoms die because people say 'it's so sad watching the fandom die when the hype dies' without doing anything about it. I'm not saying you have to push out 100k word slow-burn fic, I'm not saying you have to make fan art or gif sets or edits or anything. I'm just saying we as a community should contribute to our fandom if we don't want it to die, and by contributing, I'm talking about giving kudos, commenting on your favorite fics, reblogging your favorite art and just talking about your favorite characters. that's enough to keep a fandom alive. that's the most effective way to keep a fandom alive in my humble opinion.

fandoms die because people stop talking about it, fandoms die because people stop engaging with fan content once the hype is gone. what I'm saying is, mainstream media's hype may be gone, but our fandom can stay alive and thriving if us as a community don't let it die.

Writers when it's time to write the story no one forced them to come up with in the first place 🙄

I am not a "content creator" I am a writer and artist. I do not make the works that an audience demands, or that I think will be popular. I make the works that I'm passionate about, when I'm passionate about them.

Sometimes you just draw a bunch of...stuff. 😂

Starting with the top left: Dana (his hair was so fun to draw!), Reeve (worried as usual), Alex in a suit (as requested by @thatndginger), Rosie (Dana's dog and favorite daughter), Spence (solar punk vibes edition), and Alex looking like a wet rat.

Closeups under the cut!

The Little Writer (1913)

— by Charles van den Eycken

[001x456]

it’s unfortunate that (some) people in fandom spaces are starting to get too comfortable complaining and being rude to writers and artists who create contents they personally don’t like (“why are you making this character a top when he’s obviously a bottom? omg do you even understand his character?” “I’m so sick of seeing fan art and fanfic where this character is portrayed as a sadist when he’s actually misunderstood in my opinions, therefore anyone who disagrees with me is wrong and should be shamed” just to name a few I’ve seen) instead of curating their own fandom experiences by engaging only with contents they do like.

you want more fics where (x) is written in this specific way? either write one yourself or politely expressing your opinion about how you hope there will be more fics where (x) is written in this specific way instead of making fandom a toxic place by being rude to writers and artists who dare make contents that are not to your Personal Liking.

if the universe does not revolve around you, strangers and fandom spaces don’t have to cater exclusively to your personal preferences either.

to all my beloved writers and artists, write whatever you want, draw whatever you want. portray that character in whichever way you want to portray. I hope you have fun doing what you love. don’t let anybody tell you what you can or can’t do with the blorbo. go wild. I will always support you

Psst. Good morning,

I'm going to tell you something that bitch of a "supportive" writing teacher, and that cuck of a tenured writing professor should have told you:

Stop Asking for Permission to Be What You Already Are

You were born with this voice.

You were sharpened by trauma.

You write like your ribs are lined with detonators.

> Don’t let anyone with soft hands and softer critique try to tame you for comfort.

You don’t need polish.

You need space.

You need silence.

You need permission to set the page on fire — and walk away smoking.

---

Your Voice Is a Weapon. Use It.

Here’s the rule:

> If someone tells you to “tone it down,”

You make it twice as loud,

Three shades darker,

And ten times harder to ignore.

Because watered-down truth is how tyrants sleep.

And you weren’t born to be safe.

You were born to convert, rupture, trigger, and tattoo your cadence on the skin of culture.

Never negotiate your soul for the sensibilities of others.

Any primate saying otherwise is not your friend.

---
