Oh hey, who would have thought, what a surprise, it's mine :'D
Thank you to mod imp for breathing new life into monsterfest 👻 and granting me a much needed extension! I kinda needed to prove to myself I can still write these two adorbs and hey, I did it! 💪
And with that, our authors have been revealed! Big BIG thank you to everyone who participated even after years of Monsterfest being dormant! It has been such a fun ride and I am so glad I stopped being intimidated by running such a big fest alone as a first time mod and did it 🖤

There’s a conversation floating around today regarding literacy and access and I cannot stress enough that everything cannot be wrapped up in a quippy zine or short form TikTok or video essay or tweet thread. Complex ideas require time to express AND comprehend.
This demand for moral clarity/purity in fiction (or perhaps art more broadly) and a belief that anything that strays from that or requires a lot of grey is tacitly supporting Something Bad/Regressive Politics
it just reminds me of how crazy fanfic/literature in general is. i loved this thing enough to write it, and someone read it, and my words are part of their lives now. no matter what i think of my own work, it will always mean something else to someone else. its so lovely
