So today I got a rather unkind comment on AO3 (one could call it hate), but I believe it to be a bot for several reasons:

Guest account, but username attached

Said username exists but person is unlikely to be reading Tolkien fic (according to their Tumblr and AO3, they are in other fandoms)

Two grammatically correct sentences

Super generic text that could apply to any fic:

"I've seen better fanfiction written by a toddler. Get it together!"

I'm curious, did anyone else get comments like this? Let me know.

And to those who have gotten rude comments and are now worried/upset: Maybe it was just a bot too. Either way: You're awesome for putting your writing out there for others to enjoy and you don't deserve to get rude comments for it. If you want feel free to message me to compare cases and discuss details :)

Concept: A janitor whose job is to clean a heavily haunted building after closing time, that slowly grows accustomed to the supernatural beings that inhabit their workplace and roam free of a night. 

Instead of being fearful, they begin to treat the beings just like they would anyone else, greeting them politely and even starting up discussions about current events. As a result, the many creatures slowly begin to welcome the janitor and look forward to their arrival, rather than trying to chase them off or terrify them as they had before, some even attempting to assist the janitor with their duties.

Even though their “help” isn’t always all that helpful, the janitor always makes sure to thank them for their efforts.

The terror you had felt when you’d accidentally gotten caught in the middle of a battle between a hero and villain, had been nothing compared to the terror you’d felt when you had woken up in the hospital to a world completely void of light. 

Finding out that the damage had scarred you so badly, that the loss of vision would be permanent, had completely crushed you.

With the birth of the age of heroes and villains, the government had ended up setting in place a new system to support civilians who were caught in the crossfire. As an artist with no other income, and no one to help support you, you’d been certain that you were destined to rely entirely on that funding for the rest of your life, or until you could find another way to care for yourself, however unlikely it may be.

The agency the hero worked for, had offered some compensation for your injury and ended up paying all of your hospital fees, but in the grand scheme of things, it still left you living a rather meagre life. 

Or at least that’s how it would have been, had the gifts not started showing up.

The first time there had been a delivery of fresh groceries, you’d been completely baffled, but grateful. But the second time, you’d been a little more hesitant, as, despite having no real close friends or family who would know your tastes, each delivery seemed to have been perfectly catered to them.

It was more than a little unsettling, and soon enough it started to get even more bizarre and worrisome.

The moment you needed something replaced, a replacement would be delivered. If something broke, a handyman would show up to fix it before you could call them. Even when it came time to pay bills, you found them already paid, and your bank account completely untouched.

It was unnerving, but slowly and surely, you started to get use to it and appreciate it.

When someone had knocked on your door early one morning, you hadn’t thought much of it when you’d answered, having gotten use to random deliveries. A small smile slipped onto your lips when you caught the scent of fresh flowers, another thing you’d been receiving ever since you were hospitalised, and had slowly come to adore.

What you hadn’t been expecting, was to hear a very very familiar voice, when the person finally spoke. The voice you’d heard mere moments before you’d passed out from the pain of the injury that had permanently blinded you for life. 

Nor had you expected them to sound so utterly filled with remorse.

Telling myself this every day so here's a meme

[novilistinspirations]

its so freeing when you realize you can literally write whatever you want 

[novilistinspirations]

Want to leave a comment on a fic you enjoyed but your brain becomes soup the moment you try? Here are some ideas to get you started!

• A specific line or section you liked, copied over or paraphrased (this one requires slightly more brain solidity, but authors will go nuts for it)

• Keyboard smash! Keyboard smashes are always welcome

• In the same vein as ^ “this makes me unhinged” “I’m in your walls” anything like that is gold

• Compliment a specific aspect of their writing (characterization, flow, plot, etc)

• Give a specific reaction it got out of you (made you cry, gasp, throw your phone, etc)

• If it’s in progress, express excitement for more (though of course we all know not to be demanding)

• Mention details of how you read it (as a bedtime story, sneaking it at work, etc), for some reason this always makes me happy to see

• If you’re rereading it, mention that!

• Use an image from this post, courtesy of the lovely @bizarrelittlemew, if you’ve got no word soup left (it has ones for reread kudos, endless kudos, kisses your forehead kudos, etc etc etc)

you are an ancient dragon, the king has sent many soldiers to slay you all have failed. Then one day a man with leather armor wielding an iron sword. You get into your fighting stance, he then speaks up and says “the king killed my family and everything I love, will you help me?”
