Writing a fic when you're uninspired:
*writes half a sentence*
*checks tumblr; no updates*
*checks discord; all servers; no updates*
*goes back to doc*
*re-reads last three sentences*
*removes last half sentence written*
Hmm I want some tea ...
*makes tea*
*checks tumblr again; one new post*
*checks discord; all servers; no updates*
*checks four latest opened tabs*
*remembers an old fandom you haven't thought of in years; goes to AO3 to see if there are any good fics for it*
*opens three new fic tabs*
*remembers that you're supposed to be writing*
*writes a sentence*
I'm kinda hungry ...
*checks cupboards and fridge for snacks*
*remembers that it's ten pm and you shouldn't snack at this hour*
*remembers that you made tea; it is now cold*
*drinks cold tea*
*re-reads last three sentences*
*checks tumblr; no updates*
*checks discord; all servers; no updates*
*in desperation, checks twitter; it is a cesspool of evil so you check tumblr again; one update*
*reblog*
Hmm, I have too many tabs open ...
*opens a random tab; it is a 70K fic with 1K worth of tags that you last visited three months ago*
*reads fic*
Four hours later:
... I should go to bed.
*closes doc*
Total words written: 44

Do other writers ever get this like, hyper-specific dialogue exchange drop into their brains and you know exactly where these character are standing and what they’re doing and how they’re saying these words but that’s all you get. You don’t have much other context and this specific moment that exists only at this time in your headspace??

Friendly reminder that you should
Write that fic
Draw your OC
Redesign that blorbo
Plan that comic how you want
Create the content you want to see
Be cringe
Be free
The only thing that matters is you having fun! Not what others think!

Good morning! I’m salty.
I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.
This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.
You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.
“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.
If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.

... You can report a book that someone writes for free in their free time for being incomplete?
How's that even an option??
What kind of person even thinks of going up to Wattpad support to complain about that instead of writing a comment to the author?
This is what happened when a fanfic site is profit driven. Wattpad sucks 😞
The email from Wattpad is so condescending imagine pressuring writers to update and work while they are doing it for free and fun. Also the discovery? Algorithm? Of Wattpad looks like a stressful popularity contest 😑

If you migrate from Wattpad to Ao3....
I'm fucking begging you to actually tag your works properly AND DO NOT CENSOR WHAT YOU WRITE OR TAG !!!
Terms like "unalive" "sewer slide" and other censored terms are NOT welcome here, and you wont be punished by the algorithm for talking about death and blood and stuff BECAUSE THERES IS NO ALGORITHM !
Also making place holders IS NOT ALLOWED BY AO3 TOS.
It just clogs up the archive for nothing, if you do this, thats a sure way to get your stuff reported.
Please learn how Ao3 works, its nothing like Wattpad.

sometimes the best fanfics are written by middle aged adults with years of writing experience who simply know how to craft a good story. but also sometimes the best fanfics are written by a sixteen year old girl with something deeply wrong with her
