I wish adaptations kept Victor Frankenstein's actual age. I want the modern audience to see this goth kid who looks like he has to ask older people to buy him Monster, and realize, oh, oh, THAT'S why he's not the best father figure. Like Victor Frankenstein is a mad science version of "16 and pregnant" and I want more stuff on that.

@ fic authors what do you personally consider a successful fic? What’s the bar?

Movies used to have Bruce Campbell in them. Back when god was still listening.

Guys. I can feel it already. THIS is the year. This is the year that Jonathan Harker will go on his business trip with no issue. Just a lovely train ride through Europe where he collects paprika recipies for Mina, meets some friendly, living people looking to buy properties in England, and then returns home safely.

Free him from the time loop.

prompts open!

I'm opening up for prompts again! Last time I managed to answer them all (Yay!!) so I'm hoping I can do that again, and the added pressure of knowing someone is waiting on it helped motivate me to write! (it's been a crazy year y'all.) So if there's something you'd like to see me write, send me a character/pairing and a prompt!

#I'm willing to write any fandom i'm familiar with! #if you're not sure ask and i'll let you know if i can't do it #i also will do crossovers #i'm up for a challenge and need to kickstart the creative side of my brain again

End of the Line - Murder by Death

The Bullet - The Devil Makes Three

Season of the Witch - Donovan

Thunder & Lightning - Brown Bird

not to be controversial bc I know this is like…not in line with shifting opinions on fanfic comment culture but if there’s a glaring typo in my work I will NOT be offended by pointing it out. if ao3 fucks up the formatting…I will also not be offended by having this pointed out…

‘looking forward to the next update’ and ‘I hope you update soon!’ are different vibes than a demand, and should be read in good faith because a reader is finding their way to tell you how much they love it. I will not be mad at this.

‘I don’t usually like this ship but this fic made me feel something’ is also incredibly high praise. I’m not going to get mad at this.

even ‘I love this fic but I’m curious about why you made [x] choice’ is just another way a reader is engaging in and putting thought into your work.

I just feel like a lot of authors take any comment that’s not perfectly articulated glowing praise in the exact manner they’re hoping to receive it in bad faith.

fic engagement has been dropping across the board over the last several years, and yes it’s frustrating but it isn’t as though I can’t see how it happens. comment anxiety can be a real thing. the last thing anyone wants to do is offend an author they love, and that means sometimes people default to silence.

idk where I’m going with this I guess aside from saying unless a comment is outright attacking me I’m never going to get mad at it, and I think a lot of authors should feel the same way. ESPECIALLY TYPOS PLZ GOD POINT OUT MY TYPOS.

#exactly this #you would have to put in work to offend me with a comment #I’m always happy to hear what people think and their reaction #and extra kudos of emojis make me so happy too! someone took the time to let me know they enjoyed my work #thank you to everyone who has commented on my fic #even though I am awful at replying #(it’s not a lack of appreciation it’s a lack of time/social energy!)
