hiii ari!! i hope you’re doing well love <33 honestly your thoughts are extremely valid! i always thought it was weird/confusing when writers would get put on pedestals or just seen as someone to be viewed from the other side of the fence. i only say this bc I have a circle of writer friends who are viewed as like The Creators for a fandom and it’s weird bc to me they are just a group of wonderfully, normal people. idk at the end of the day you are still a regular person who is contributing and enjoying creative works, and even if you feel a bit jaded bc of your experience, I just wanna let you know that your writing is just one aspect of the many things I have grown to love about you (and I think most of us here can attest to that)! I think the way you interact with asks and etc helps humanize you to your reader/followers. also also! I love seeing you on my tl being your unapologetic self so just keep doing you babe *kisses and hugs*

HELLO!!!! thank u this is so sweet, appreciate it. i hear this from my friends too LMAOO my bf especially. bless his heart i talk to him about my experiences and he’s always like ????? what are these people seeing and it makes me laugh. like we are all just some guys most of us live otherwise mundane lives it’s funny in it’s own way. 

the second half of this... very sweet. i try my best to just engage authentically and be decently kind on this app and like... steer clear of any unessecary critique of strangers and talking to people i trust. im an imperfect person so im bound to fuck up now and again but i do genuinely like talking to people on here when i have energy and being my dumbass self.
