I have a question for the fanfic writers among you: How do you treat your work in progress when a very similar story is put out there? Do you go on writing - in the spirit that everything is unique in its own way - or do you abandon the piece - in the spirit of preventing 'superfluous' contributions?

Let's add a further wrench into the process by saying the recently published work by another author, so similar to your own, seems so much better written than your own (granted we are always our own worst critics). Where do you go with that?

Maybe this is a question for readers, too. Do you mind reading similar works/story lines?

#I subscribe to the two cakes philosophy #I will write what I want to write #I hope others do the same #and I hope readers love reading about their OTPs #also who are those .4% asking authors to to pay more attention to what exists out there like hello this hobby is free? #if you don't like that there's a bunch of blorbo1xblorbo2 fics out there then write what you want to see in the world!

Warhammer Romance, when!? I'll help you sell hot space folks to new audiences, GW! 😈

One of the funniest things about this fandom to me is the almost jolly hatred everyone has for Games Workshop. Like you get enough 40k fans together, and sooner or later someone is going to complain about Games Workshop, and then everyone joins in on how trash they are. It's a bonding experience. Everyone blithely operates under the assumption that Games Workshop sucks, that we all agree that Games Workshop sucks, and that it will continue to suck forever and ever. And we will keep on impoverishing ourselves on their overpriced minis and never-ending fount of media.

I love all of these :3

Also including an AU where Lilith pursued the priesthood. The brilliant brainchild of tech priests employing cats to keep rats away from the cables belongs to @darka-art & @holylustration respectively.

Sir, I believe my democracy officer is secretly a bot sympathiser, who do I report them to?

The hot end of your favorite weapon, Helldiver.

A princess carry! Gorgeous!

Heinrix and Annelise. I was just on Pinterest doing my warm-up sketches and it ended up becoming a little more than just a sketch. XP

Thank you, Caitlincat!

We're in the start of the acquaintances to friends stage now that the secret is revealed and Heinrix doesn't have a good reason to perpetuate his monster mystique anymore, so I'm glad you found their interactions as compelling in these new roles!

Separately, I'm putting my general PSA about AO3 invitations back out there! The bots have returned (and have even struck a good friend of mine), so AO3 could pull down anonymous commenting again. I still have invitations left, if anyone needs one.

Chapter 8 of My Knight So Daring is up!

The aftermath of the revelation is felt!

Well, I tried …..

And yes that is supposed to be Heinrix and my OC Venria and no, it is not a WIP - that is all I can do.

Good morning/afternoon/evening! I was wondering if I could have permission to draw a picture of Aurelia? ^_^

Oh my goodness, it would be my honor and delight to accept. Thank you!
