I imagine the greatest fic scenes in my head. I've just moved myself to tears with one. But I know if I write it down it won't come out the same way, so I guess it's going to stay in my head.
Such is the story of 90% of the fics I come up with. Sigh.

Does anyone else sometimes get sad and insecure about mulitple chapter stories they write and post on ff.net oder AO3 and receive 50, 100, 200, + kudos but only one maybe two to five people from those comment regularly and with that let you know if someone is even still reading and enjoying your story.
I do primarily write for myself and I would still write if no one gave me any feedback but it would just be nice sometimes if people shared how they felt about the chapters I post.
Did they like it? Did they hate it? Did I catch them by surprise? What did or didn't they like?
This way it just leaves me in limbo and I have no clue if people even still read it or if I'm writing it for myself and could just as well not go trough the trouble of posting it.
I don't know I'm usually fine with it but every once in a while I get sad that after hours upon hours of writing, researching, editing,... people can't even take the time to write a short comment, just to let me know people are still reading it. Is it too much to ask for after you spent the time it took for you to read it to stay another minute or two to give me a sign? There really isn't any other way for me to know.
I guess I'm just in a weird mood and it's a weird day.
It would just be nice to know if anyone even still cares about the story.

I did so well with writing yesterday and a couple days before that. I was so proud of myself for finally, finally getting back to writing after stagnating in my sorrow for so long. I even got my laptop out to write again today. I thought I was on a roll! Except now, I just feel sad. I... I can't help but think of how proud my late friends would be of me for continuing to write... and I find myself filled with grief and anguish. I miss them.
I'll never be able to ring them and tell them how my writing is going ever again.

when you're feeling insecure about your writing so you go to read an ACTUAL published book and you realize your writing is better.

I've just realized that the majority of the things I've posted on here about my Novel characters is Porthos and Nexus who are not even a cannon ship in their own universe 👀

Sooooo…
I reread Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I know, I know, it was a bad idea. I can practically hear you guys screaming. The issue is, my brain can’t let go of those characters now, and I feel compelled to write PJO fanfiction, which may slow down my DC stuff a bit. Obviously I’ll still be a Gothamite at heart, but I can’t stop thinking of AUs and other things, so my content may shift for a little bit. Thanks for reading, love you all so much! :) <33

It's time for me to try traditionally publishing
Life is going to heck in a hand basket, so I'm going to see if I can try what I've always wanted to do and make a living off writing.
I've got quite a few projects that are in various stages of done.
And, thanks to the events outside of my control, I feel just insane enough to try to finish and publish them!
Here's the plan so far
Goals:
Make a list of agents
Make a list of agencies
Make a list of publishers
Go through my projects and identify books/projects/anything workable really
Identity project genres and come up with connections
Write good blurbs for each project
Write letters to send to agents/agencies/publishers
Send 100 letters
Receive 100 rejections or one full approval
Rough Timeline
Gather all lists components before September 14th
Have all blurbs, lists, and letters written before the end of September
Send 100 letters by December 30th
If no approvals are received by Dec 30th, make a new plan
My ultimate goal though is just to get through the situation I've landed in. This is all hopes and dreams, sure, but we'll see how it turns out.
Here's hoping.

"internet historian's alt-right anyways" "great day to have never liked james somerton" "never even heard of illuminaughtii before this lol"
that's great buddy but don't go around thinking you're immune to this. if you're not looking for plagiarism, you likely won't notice it unless its egregiously obvious. hell, you've probably consumed plagiarized content without even realizing it. even hbomb pointed out that these people disguised what they presented pretty well as long as you didn't try and dig deeper. don't come away just thinking of this as a callout piece, take this as an important lesson about vetting your sources. if googling scripts in quotes was enough to expose the original, we should all start doing that shit!!
edit: it got a little too doomer-y a little too fast so one quick addition
this is hbomb's curated playlist of queer creators, many of whom were victims of plagiarism
this is producer kat on reddit calling for any more plagiarism discoveries and for queer content creators to be uplifted
please take some time to uplift these creators and recommend any you know! if you can help uncover more of the original creators whose work was lifted that would be great too :)
UPDATE- From Hbomb's twitter: "We're in the process of cataloguing everyone James Somerton plagiarised and finding their contact information. Which is quite a task, so to help us out: If you see this and happen to be one of the people Somerton stole from, please email us at [email protected]"

I think that one of the most underrated reveals in Scum Villain was that Luo Binghe inherited his big dick toxic alpha male energy from his birth mother, and it actually has nothing to do with his demon side.
