super simple low-effort ao3 summary methods that are 1000% better and 1000% less annoying than just saying you suck at summaries:

copypaste the first few lines of the fic. u already wrote ��em. let ‘em be their own damn hook

if ur feeling fancy & don’t mind showing ur hand a bit, copypaste the first few lines of the fic that u feel are esp. Important or Interesting - the ones where u first start getting into the real meat of things

state the main tropes! theyre probably already in ur tags - just say them again - maybe as a full sentence if ur feelin fancy. or with a joke if ur feelin Extra fancy

ask a question. pose a hypothetical. eg what happens if u take [character] and put them in [situation]?

make an equation. [character] + [thing] = [outcome]

just write like a one-sentence summary of what the fuck is going down. just one (1) sentence. doesnt matter if it doesn’t cover every important aspect. or if it sounds bland. any summary sentence is gonna be miles better than “idk i suck at summaries”

just…explain the fic like u would to a friend? it doesnt have to be a polished back of the book blurb. it can just be “[pairing] coffee shop au, but like, still with murder, and also i made everyone trans. enjoy”

just stick a meme in there

honestly who cares

just put literally anything but a self deprecating comment in there & ur golden

Boise city council votes 5-1 to make pride flag official city flag

Don't fucking lose hope!!! If one of the most dangerous states for queer people can have it's CAPITAL CITY go 5 to fucking 1 to make this flag an OFFICIAL CITY FLAG, there is always going to be hope.

To all my sisters, brothers, siblings, friends in deep red states, don't lose hope. There are people IN YOUR STATE fighting for you!!! Stay alive!!! Stay proud!!! Stay safe!!!! I love you all!!!! And for those who don't fw love, I appreciate you!!!!!

One of the machines broke down at the hyperbole factory. The situation is frustrating, but ultimately manageable.

i cant believe that there's still gamergate STANK on games that women enjoy. NASTY misogyny residue. stardew valley is in fact a video game. animal crossing is also a video game. so are otome games and dating sims and twee little cozy games. sometimes a bitch doesnt wanna play bloodborne that shit's hard

it’s interesting how sometimes an attempt to subvert a problematic trope will become a problematic trope in itself. wait hold on i have a perfect bad luck brian image for this

"men get pegged" sayers when pegging is actually talked about as a normal sex act and not a meme where the punchline is just heteronormativity but with a #feminist twist
