Side Note To Fan Fic Authors

Here’s the thing.

I read a lot of scripts.  A lot.  From professionals to aspiring writers to complete newbies.  Features and pilots.  Specs and treatments.

And 8 times out of 10 the fan fic that I’ve read over the last, oh, 15 years is leagues better than this stuff.  It’s more inspired.  It’s more compelling.  It’s genre bending and creative and heartfelt.  It’s well-paced and intense and funny and sexy and meaningful.  It’s smart and thoughtful and good.  It’s novel-quality.  Better than, sometimes.

Rare is the script I don’t want to put down, but how often have we stayed up until 3am to get to the last chapter of a 100k fic? And it’s not even a fan fic author’s day job.  This is what they do on the side.  In their spare time.  For free.

So my point is, fan fic authors, you’re good.  You’re good writers and great storytellers.  I know it doesn’t always feel like it, especially if you’re one of the authors who’s not a BNF and doesn’t get the notes/hits that a few do.  And  because some people still view fic as “not real writing.” You guys know the shit that gets made into movies.  You’re better than that.  So be better than that.  If writing is what you think want to do, then just know you’re already doing it.   You’ve already started.

And you’re more talented than you might think.

please don’t mind me posting random shit. please don’t leave me ahahhahaha

i’ve been talking to this guy but i found out he’s planning to confess to someone soon. i dont know how i should reply. i really thought i had a chance

i wanna write again, but also not really. does that make sense?

I am really confused. I have 3 research/thesis in 3 different subjects and I'm only a senior in high school. Is that normal? Or are my teachers trying to kill us?

oh my god you're back thank god! i was worried );

Aww that's so sweet! But I don't think I'll be writing anything soon because I am DROWNING in responsibilities. I'm just passing by tumblr to feel a bit happy because I am stressed AF

I am so stressed from school. And the fact that I have cram school is really getting to me. Ghad, DOES IT HAVE TO BE SO STRESSFUL I HAVE SO MUCH TO DO I JUST WANT TO WATCH NETFLIX BUT I CAN'T BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH TO DO😭😭😭 I want to write too but when HUHUHU

hey i know we’re tired of change.org but julius jones is on death row and has been wrongfully imprisoned for 20 years so it really cannot hurt to sign this petition

i understand that not everyone can donate rn even if they really wanted to. i myself am currently unemployed and cannot donate much more than i already have atm !! not donating is okay - pls don’t feel guilty if you do not have the means to do so.

if donating is not a possibility right now, ive found this 1 hour video you can watch on youtube where all proceeds from the ad revenue will go to an organization to help the cause (more info in the video’s description). op has compiled songs and art from Black artists to listen to. you can leave it on to play in the background or plug in earphones and go about your business as usual. it can’t get more simple than that.

as a fandom that’s known to mass stream, it would be amazing if you could channel that energy into watching this video !!!!!

Baekhyun and Jongdae’s faithful encounter at their SM Audition ಥ▽ಥ

A World, Coloured by You

Themes: fluff, love, family, soulmates AU, accidental marriage AU, strings of fate, memories, childhood bffs, minor angst

Pairing: husband!Junmyeon x fem!Reader

Description: Inspired by an anon’s AU Mashup Game request I received for the “accidental marriage” and “soulmates” AUs. At first you thought it began with a pact, to marry one another if you hadn’t discovered your soulmates by the time Sehun had his first kid. But as you uncovered more, you realized that it had begun – and would end – with Junmyeon.

Word Count: ~5000

A/N: Thank you @jenmyeons​ for helping me procure this wonderful (colorful) photo of Jun, as well as Jun himself for giving me the title for this fic (it’s a line from Self-Portrait). Otherwise, unedited, but what else is new?

So.. this is a disclaimer. Incoming.. a stupid post about follows/unfollows, blocking/unblocking, tumblr drama and so on. Pretty much all the reasons why I don’t want to stay here anymore, didn’t want to stay on Tumblr at all, but creating stuff is what I love and it calms me down when I have anxiety or panic attacks. This is about why I just recently moved to another blog, but a lot of people found me already. I don’t care. I wasn’t going to make this post, but I just have to. I didn’t know what I was diving into when entering this community. Here’s an answer for you: A LOT OF UNNECESSARY DRAMA. I’ve met a lot of amazing, kind and talented people and I’m so happy about it. But some of them, including tons of hurtful hate anons I got for no reason, were the toxic part of this community. You know, you try to ignore, delete the hate, avoid it as much as possible, all the drama and so on.. as childish as it is, just because this platform is irrelevant and is pretty much just for all the users to share the content they create, you still can’t escape the bad feelings, the “competition” for notes, reblogs, feedback and so on. I’m not saying everybody is like this, I could call out hundreds of people for their bullshit, for hurting my friends in the most psychologically abusive ways, I could make a freaking “death note”. But it’s not my place to do so, since that is my personal experience with those people. But I’ve seen the giffing community’s part. I’ve seen the fanfic writer’s side. Somehow fanart side is quiet, peaceful and not appreciated enough.

• Notes. Reblogs, likes.. the part that I can honestly call “drugs”, if you pay enough attention to it. It sucks you in, I’ve been there, I’ve done that. Start comparing your stuff to other people’s stuff and so on. Good thing I have a best friend who hit me in my head and told me to snap out of it. You can’t feel how you’re one day making it all for fun and another day you’re waiting for videos to gif asap just to get notes. Conclusion: not worth it. Make it if you want to make gifs, fanarts, video edits and so on. This platform is to enjoy, not compete. There’s a good reason why a lot of people hang out here, there’s a good reason you can’t see the followers count. 

• Following/Unfollowing. Follow who you want to follow. Your dashboard is the content you want to see. Mutuals for a long time and they started posting something you don’t want to see anymore? Unfollow them, no big deal, if they want to keep in touch, they will. I’ve dropped a lot of people like this, I’m usually not the one to reach out, really not after the shit I’ve been through because of this type of drama, but the guilt you feel when you unfollow a mutual or a friend just because you don’t like their content in general or anymore. Conclusion: tumblr is based on putting out content and sharing it. Your blog - your rules. 

• Blocking/Unblocking people. Now this is a very sensitive topic to a lot of people. I’ve blocked people, because they were mean to me or mean to people I care about. A lot of them. I block people for a reason, if they talk shit about my friends directly to me, well bye, you’re showing how much you respect others and I don’t like this kind of attitude. I’m not saying I’m the saint one here. People talk about people, that’s what we all do at the end of the day. I’ve been blocked by people because they didn’t like me, because I’m saying too much, because I’m random, because I’m “pain in the ass on tumblr for them”. Do I give a f*ck? Honestly, if I had no problems in my real life outside of this site, I maybe would give a shit about them. Now.. that’s what I tell all the time. If you don’t like me or my content - block me, no need to tell me your opinion. I’ve seen people who turned from “I love your work” to “you’re entitled, get a life”. Hurts? If it’s a person I know, yeah, hell yeah it hurts. If not then, well good for them. In the end, if you want to block someone, just do it. Some people will hate, some people will ignore it, some people will say “f*ck you” and forget it after a while. Conclusion: once again, it’s your blog, if you block people.. well that’s it. You have your reasons, move on. For the blocked people - feel however you want to feel and move on. Both of you, the person who blocked you and the blocked person, you’re not worth each other’s time, so why waste it. 

• Tumblr drama. It starts with one of the few reasons mentioned above. Notes, follows, blocking, I could add feedback too, but this is another world of “you treat me badly because you don’t care about me and my work so I’m gonna be pissed about it”. Other than that, addressing tumblr drama here is important to me. I just.. somehow happened to be in the middle of it. With a whole lot people. I don’t know how it became like this, but it’s another people I’ve kept only few people close to me when moving blogs. I was afraid of it. It hurt me a lot of times. That’s why I turned my chats off here. I’ve thought a lot when writing this part of this post and the only thing I can say about this, is stay away from drama. It’s a waste of your time and energy. The things I learned in a year.. this community is toxic for all of these reasons. However, not all people are bad, that’s why I try to think like them for a second when they say mean things or say shit about me or others. Just to try and feel how they are feeling at that moment. Conclusion: Tumblr is irrelevant kindergarden for teenagers and adults. Stay away from this part and if you see someone abusing you, telling you what to do, saying mean things or something like that - block them. 

Overall - this is not meant to hurt anyone here. I’m not calling out anyone directly, indirectly or in any other way. I know people like to take it to heart. This is in general how I feel about things, what I’ve experienced in a year being here. How I felt, what kind of people I met, what stuff I had to do and didn’t do. This post is simply for people who are new here and who just recently got into the giffing, fanfic or any other kpop community. In no way I am telling anyone what to do. In no way I am saying that you have to turn your chats off or go and block everyone. All I’m saying is, how you feel towards other people is valid. If you don’t like something, you’re not keeping it in your life, you usually get rid of it. You’re not obliged to chat with everyone, reply to everyone, be nice to everyone or do as someone says you should do or act. Tumblr is a platform to share your content, to support others by reblogging their content and just feel better about yourself since you can show what you created to the world. All in all, I needed a new, fresh start with positive people around me and that’s why I left this blog. It means a lot to me, or, meant, I’m not deleting it anytime soon.. I may be a bad guy for telling of all this now, but if you’ll take it personally - it’s gonna be your feelings to deal with.

hi! I've been reading Always You from the first update and I just want to tell you that you are doing a great job at it! I am very excited for what's in store for all the characters. It's very 'interesting', just like what Kyungsoo said hehehe, I'll wait patiently of course! I like how you write so much 🥺 I hope you keep on writing without any troubles and worries 💛 I love you!!! I hope you're having a great day 😊 please drink plenty of water and always be happy author!!!

Awww🥺🥰❤ That's so sweet!!! Thank you! Really because your words means a lot. Tbh lately, I feel no spark when I'm writing because the thing about me and writing is that when I get so into it, I do it everyday and pressure my self to write and update because I know that others actually read and wait for me to update.

And when that happens, I would slowly distance myself to writing because then it wasn't fun anymore. All those inspirations and ideas just fly out of my head and I don't open my laptop to write. And I really hate that about myself because I like writing. I LOVE writing but when I get into it, I often stop because the spark just dissipate. Then I'll find myself writing again then not again.

The fact that other people read my writing never fails to amaze me because I know I'm not good at it. It's just a hobby that somehow, people actually appreciate and that really reallllly means so much. Because of those few readers who comment and like my work energizes and inspires me. It's because of you guys that I thrive to be better. And I'm really really happy that you guys like and enjoy reading what I wrote.

And because of that, I hate the fact that I just stop. Especially when I write series because it frustrates me that I can't provide the content to you guys who actually wait for me. I update back to back then take a long break and that scares me because you guys might forget about my story. It matters a lot to me (and to other lots of writers) that people read what I write. It's because it reminds us that what we write matter and that what we write is enjoyed by others.

I'm really surprised that people liked Always You because to be truthfully speaking, I'm not satisfied with it. It lacks so much and I'll edit it once I finish the series. And don't worry, when I write a series, I end it. No matter how long it takes, I WILL finish it.

When I finish Always You, I'll probably won't write a series for a long time because series really drain me. When I wrote Always You, I already knew the ending but damn did I not expect to be stuck though I always ALWAYS get stuck.

About Always You, I don't know when I'll update again but probably soon. I'm just a bit lost with it right now. I just want to deliver the story nicely so that you guys won't be disappointed (myself too). I'm also halfway my Baekhyun one shot and it's my first attempt to write a long ass one shot so I hope you guys like it. I'm contemplating real hard if I should finish that first or write the part 8 for Always You. Though I would update Always You first before I post that. That one shot is also a promise to myself to be better at writing. I challenged myself to write a long fanfic because I enjoy those lol. And it's also a promise to myself to finish that story and post it.

Sorry for ranting🤣 It's just that I never talked about this and just kept it in to myself. I wanted to get it out there in hopes that I would be able to let it out than just bottle it up to myself. Andddd also I actually wrote today though I was sadly interrupted by my mother who made me enroll online but that's fine. Hopefully tomorrow, I won't be a lazy ass and actually write. And I actually enjoyed writing earlier soooo I hope that continue🤣

Again, THANK YOU THANK YOU for saying this. It fired me up to not be lazy and write. I was thinking about this the whole day and finally got myself to open my laptop to write.

Have a good day anon! Just like how you made mine better😄❣Love you too! I love you everyone!
