Me: No one asks me to write fics in my strawpage.

Me: No one asks me for a collab.

Me: I am a failure.

Also me:

Twitter is private, like I am a high-security diplomat.

Tumblr's About Me Post: Hostile as Fuck.

My Ao3 Author Notes: Deranged with threats.

sometimes the best writing advice is "just let it be bad." revolutionary. terrifying. but it works.

Writing is 10% inspiration,

90% 'I swear I’ll fix this in edits.'

Dear fanfic writers, your need to get VALIDATION for your creativity is VALID

Look, there is no gun to our heads and no one is making us put our blood, sweat and tears into these stories we're writing. But look at it this way, we're human too and everyone likes to get compliments.

Writing for self enjoyment is the goal but don't feel bad for craving more support, hits, kudos, comments, etc. Just because it's fanfiction doesn't mean it's less mentally stressful to do, and it sure doesn't make the stories mean less to us as writers.

Our work is rich and awesome too and we deserve a good pat on the back for it. We deserve to get acknowledgement and credit for it🤝

you ever get that feeling where you want to read fanfic but you also want to write fanfic? like both at the same time??

i sit down to write and suddenly i am the most distracted human alive. the chair is uncomfortable. my coffee is too hot. my playlist isn't quite the vibe. i need to research what victorian houses smelled like in 1872 for exactly 45 minutes even though my story takes place in space. and yet the moment i'm trying to fall asleep? every single sentence i've ever needed just lines up perfectly in my brain like some kind of creative parade i'll never get back.

i think it is a very powerful thing when the story inside you is so loud that you are forced to relearn how to draw, write, and talk to people to get it made into a real thing
