New idea: instead of writing the fic, you come over to my house and I tell you the entire plot while I pace my tiny kitchen. There’s a cup of tea, warm in your hands. The words don’t stop and the affection never leaves your expression.

Our fandom forbearers did NOT suffer through Anne Rice, strikethrough, and other bullshit for fucking ACOTAR and Harry Potter fans to fucking ruin it for all of us by selling fanfiction. I am not losing novel length yaoi epics because some of you don't know how to act in fannish spaces and yes I do blame the booktokification of fanfic but I also blame those of you that treat fandom like content to consume and not a community to engage with.

Another AO3 thing I’m curious about, how do yall decide if something is good enough to read? Usually I follow a rule of 1 kudos for every 10 hits. One because it’s easy math and two it’s yet to fail me. Thoughts? Do you just go for it and pray it’s good?

One of those “characters get to read/watch their source material and use it to change the future” fics, except instead of the original show/book/whatever they just get handed a pile of memes, overly specific headcanons, incorrect quotes, and edits and have to try to piece together the plot from that.

too sleepy to elaborate at this time but I miss the old fandom culture of interacting with fanfic writers and fanfic artists as members of the fandom community who enjoyed engagement and discussion and feedback instead of the modern trend of seeing us as content creators up on a pedestal who don't need positive feedback but DO need to churn out constant content to feed the a03 machine

I hope kids outgrow their obsession with “moral purity” so they can embrace and enjoy fiction as adults without restrictions. Indulging in fantasy should be a fun, relaxing outlet instead of a source of stress, constantly worrying about your taste in characters and ships being a “reflection” of your morals when it isn’t.
Fictional characters aren’t real people, and no one is being harmed by what you do with them. Quit worrying about being “god-honoring,” and have fun your way.
