worried that thing you put in your art or writing or game or music is too self-indulgent, too self-referential, too niche for anyone but yourself? fear not! you can do whatever you want forever. and you should.

nothing pisses me off more than when i see a fic on ao3 talking about reach. "this ship isn't here but i added them for reach" "this fandom tag isn't necessary but i'm adding it for reach" "reposting for reach" STOP IT!!!! this is not tiktok this is not twitter this is an ARCHIVE this is not how it works!!!

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?

I’m noticing an increase in new fic writers on AO3 who…uh…mayy not know how to format their fics correctly..so here is a quick and VERY important tip
Using a random fic of mine as example..
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The left example: ✅✅✅
The right example: ❌❌❌
Idk how many times I’ve read a good fic summary and been so excited to read before clicking on it and being met with an ugly wall of text. When I see a huge text brick with zero full line breaks my eyes blur and I just siiiigh bc either I click out immediately or I grin and bear it…it’s insufferable!
If a new character speaks, you need a line break. If you notice a paragraph is becoming too large, go ahead and make a line break and/or maybe reconfigure the paragraph to flow better. I’m not a pro writer or even a huge fic writer but…please…ty…

the problem with having a decade old tumblr blog is that there are posts on it from a decade ago

every so often i just think about how good it was that the most foolproof one-size-fits-all solution for dealing with basically any horrifyingly evil supernatural monster of the week in the magnus archives was just. burying them in concrete. like yeah i can believe that a few tons of grey brutalist slop would stop the wolfman or pretty much anything in its tracks to be honest. they use that shit on nuclear waste. do you honestly think you're stronger than a nuke? a fucking nuke?

Because I write and never finish, so I'd be useless on discord, lol.
Well you said it yourself, that's something that happens to all of us!
I think having other people around who write or are also struggling with writing can be very reassuring, as well as encouraging once you get to share your ideas with others who are enthusiastic about them or can help you overcome a block.
I haven't made the gc yet but it's not my intention to pressure people into writing, more like hanging around with other authors in a relaxed writer's retreat lol. And if ideas start flowing, that's even better!

I'm writing but useless, and I'm afraid most of us are like that. 🙃
Why is it useless?

Kind of talking into the void, but are there any people here writing tvxq fics, planning on writing them, or having ideas they'd like to write? I'm thinking of putting together a little discord group chat but I need to know if there's anyone interested, so leave a comment or send me a dm if you do and would like to know more!
