@kkai_gc I agree about that, and thank you for saying this 😭 I think I'll keep to my rule for now where I just don't RT anything "ship-coded" to keep it outwardly neutral but you BEST BELIEVE i'm still "liking" and reading anything that interests me out there!! ❤️😭
living life on hard-mode by not posting about ships was... an interesting decision from past-me.
i want to yap so bad but i like so many "conflicting" ships that i'd just make literally everyone uncomfortable unless i only post about Fanfiction that I write for em 💀
wuh woah
i'm fine btw i could always just say "fuck it" but i won't because i like looking at a bunch of different ships and don't wanna turn people away, especially if some ships are more popular and therefore would have more stuff to RT... yadda yadda yap yap yap
cannot stress the power of making fic recs in fandom spaces. when authors post about their own shit half the time it's crickets but one friendly rec in the right place at the right time can launch your ass into the stratosphere. REC! THE FICS! YOU LOVE! 🗣️ KEEP RECCING THEM! 📢
yes and no: the outline is there as a roadmap and sometimes my plot points are written like: "when you get here, figure out how to do (insert main plot point)"
THAT'S when i take a shortcut off of a cliff and a detour to get to my next plot point in a way that makes any sense 😭
Fanfic writers...do yall actually like follow your outlines exactly or do you find the fic just like completely swerving and sometimes hitting the outline notes
The issue is that what used to be suggestions to help make the plot flow better and possibly have more engaging character conflicts have warped into, "the author didn't make the story I want so it's bad". It completely ignores the context of what the story was trying to convey.
