Hello everyone; I am looking for an artist that is 18+ to help with a project I am working on. You will be paid for your work and time. If you are interested and meet the age requirement; DM me and I will give more details.
Thanks for viewing this post.

people nowadays would have PERISHED in old fandom. "don't like, don't read" was the rule, and anyone who tried to yuck people's yums was shamed right off the internet.
learn how to curate your feed. block, mute, filter tags on AO3, and most importantly DO NOT ENGAGE!!
i love reading multiple fics from an author and noticing what their favorite words are, the parts of their characters’ appearances that they like to emphasize, the rhythmic patterns theyre inclined towards, and the aesthetics and imagery they employ =]
Making fun of a 31yo for writing fanfiction (whilst you yourself are on the fanfiction website) tells me you are very young and new to fandom because… lmao. Nearly all of the best fic I’ve ever read has been written by people over the age of 25. Please get ahold of yourselves.
Controversial opinion-you’re allowed to hate a character. HOWEVER, if you hate a character so much you send DEATH THREATS to people who like the character, you’re just miserable.
fanfiction is born out of love and genuine excitement by a fan. it’s built on community, passion, deranged author’s notes. AI can’t understand emotion therefore
AI CAN NOT WRITE FANFICTION. get that shit away from ao3.
everyone who starts harassing authors after a week of no update needs to be made to sit down and WRITE. to realize how long it takes to write even 1000 words of passable prose. hours of nothing, of rewriting the same sentence, of switching three words around, of random research
In honour of Ao3 moving out of beta I think we need to remind everyone that ao3 was founded to fight censorship. Literally made as an Archive for fan works because every other site would delete “problematic” works or cave to outside pressures
If you don’t like that, leave.
I don’t give a fuck if someone thinks my fic is AI tbh, I’m gonna keep using my lists of three, short sentences, emdashes, it’s how I was taught to write and I’ll stick to it. fuck anyone who thinks otherwise
don't bring up fanarts, don't bring up fanfictions, don't bring up fandom activities at all when interviewing actors or shows writers. It's called FANdom for a reason, that's a place that belongs to us. Not to mention you expose creators to online hate. Stop.
at this point the witch hunting going on towards fic writers in the name of “weeding out” ai fics is actively harming fandom culture in a significantly worse way than ai fics are.
we’re losing real human writers because of it. anyone who’s participated should be ashamed.
