I’m Not A Perfectionist, But Finding A Typo Or A Grammatical Error In My Own Already-published Fic

Here's How ‘Our Flag Means Death’ Fans Raised Over $100k for Trans Kids

The auction included props and promotional items from the show.

Wa-fucking-hoo for the OFMD fandom! :) <3

Sometimes I can't help but think about these two...

“why isn’t there any fic about (x)?” there can be a fic that is precisely about what you want to read. just start writing that fic for yourself.

“but I’m not a writer” every writer has had their first time writing. most writers start with writing something they want to read. your work doesn’t have to be perfect, because having 1 fic that is precisely about what you want to read, even if it’s not perfect, is still better than having 0 fics about what you want to read.

Dinesh spotted a meditative video of Gilfoyle on Tara's channel and suddenly realised that it was working like a sleeping aid on him.

Springandastorm's ‘Sleep Aid’ footage is on AO3, but the scene I depicted wasn't there

Динеш запалил на канале Тары медитативное видео с Гилфойлом и внезапно осознал, что на нем это работает как снотворное.

Сюжет "Sleep Aid" от Springandastorm на АОЗ, но изображенной мною сцены там не было

one of my favorite things about this scene is how Rio starts off her story by saying “someone” then “them” and then ends with “she is my scar” and just proceeds to fully stare at Agatha

have you ever read a fanfic so good that you wanted to write a fanfic about that fanfic, but was too shy / too intimidated to ask for the author’s permission and too afraid that your writing wouldn’t be half as good as theirs and that it would be an insult to their work that was basically a literal masterpiece, so you just sat there fantasizing about their work and how beautiful it was and how you wished you could just eat it and how you wished canon could write your blorbos half as good as this writer did and how you just wanted to cry because you just loved that fic so much????

reasons to write fanfiction (I'll start):

share a cool scene that popped into your head

evoke a particular emotion the canon makes you feel

song made you think of a character or idea from canon

make people feel the same way about a character you do

make dolls kiss for fun

explore ideas the canon hints at but doesn't do anything with

traumatize characters and make them suffer

coddle characters and let them rest

had an insane idea for a crack ship and now everyone needs to know

the author of the canon was wrong and must be fixed

use familiar characters to explore your own ideas and plotlines

canon is too short and you need to wallow in the universe of the story
