WHY YOU SHOULD WRITE HORRIBLY:

*in a fake body cast, interrupting your conversation* i just think its cruel how not one of you has mentioned my… condition.

Oh shittttt I forgot this was my one wild and precious life

I have a lot of feelings about the rise of he would not fucking say that attitudes in fandom spaces and the paralysing effect it can have on creators. As a writer i think it’s important to just write what feels true to you and not what you think others will “approve” of. Like even as a reader i have enjoyed a variety of different characterisations that all work because the writer makes them work for a particular story. And a fic that’s written out of character to some will be in character to others. Writing fic is not your job you’re not being paid it’s your hobby please. Make them as close to canon as possible. Make them completely different. Who cares! Have fun! Have so much fun! There is an audience for every kind of fic and every kind of character interpretation i promise

realizing that sticking to the "do it bad" "do it scared" mentality implies theres also a "do it bored"

mmm oh I can't think about that or I'll die
