Hey, just wanna say a few things since people clearly don't know this. If you create a bookmark on ao3 that's NOT private and leave tags, the author can read those tags.

so maybe don't leave tags being rude about the work on there (why are you bookmarking fics you don't like????)

I just got a bookmark with rude tags on it and guys, i literally can't stand shit like this. I have to deal with this type of entitlement and rudeness on my other account, too, and while I expect it more here, I thought people would act with discernment and reading comprehension, but let me just reiterate some things.

You do not have to read any fic you don't want to. Don't like the direction something is going? click that back button.

leaving tags about the stuff you don't like isn't going to change anything. it will get you blocked/muted, though.

you always have the option to write your own fic, and then it'll be exactly what you want! neat, huh?

on the notes of EVERY chapter of this fucking fic, I said this is an alternate universe where SWK did a murder. I said that. Hey, if you don't like that or agree with it? Again, click that back button!!

THE FIC ISN'T FINISHED YET!!!!!!

You just read 78K words for FREE!! And you're going to gripe and complain about that content you VOLUNTARILY consumed??

Look, I hate to make a big deal about this, but this type of behavior makes me not want to share my writing. Because I don't HAVE to, I don't have to share it with anyone. I'm making that choice, so maybe show some respect and decency.

I work too damn hard and put too many hours and shit into this fic, I don't have time for this kinda bs. I appreciate all the comments and questions and theories and engagement, I really do, but this kinda stuff just really angers me.

#constellations fic #the gall of people insulting my writing and leaving that on the bookmarks for me to just. read.#gotta say; this is a new low in my writing career. way to go 2023 we are reaching new HEIGHTS!!!#im just not gonna check bookmarks anymore #usually friends or people i know leave nice words #but this is ridiculous
