Fan fic authors are not professional writers.
Expecting them to be perfect and never make mistakes is setting yourself up to be an asshole.
Do you know how long it takes to write and publish a 60k novel for most published authors? Years. Plural.
That includes time spent writing multiple drafts and doing research and multiple rounds of edits. Access to a professional editor, and the ability to hire sensitivity readers. The list goes on and on and on.
Fan fic authors owe you nothing. They are churning out multiple novel length fics (or the equivalent in one shots) a year while still holding down school/jobs.
And you’re gonna jump down their throats because they wrote a pairing differently than you prefer??
Shut the fuck up.
Tags exists for a reason. Read them and move on if the fic is not for you.
I mean really. We all just lived through fucking 2020. Let people enjoy their FAKE gay porn in peace.
Jfc.
This is so real.
I saw a post going around about how “fanfic authors don’t accept critique anymore”
And it’s like?
Imagine you bake a batch of cookies and you take it to the office to share with your co-workers.
And then someone just sits down and it’s like “Ah, the flavour profile is not quite proper. See, you should have added the brown sugar *after* the flour, and”
And it’s like? Just eat the fucking cookie, Mike, and shut the fuck up. lmao
A hobby doesn’t need critique. You don’t even need to be good at it.
Let people have fun on the internet, for god’s sake.
I havent done any writing in a very long time but I swear I will get some done eventually probably maybe

Hi babes, just wanted to update you all on Lost & Found chapter 5 (can’t believe we’re on chapter 5 already!!)
I don’t think I’m going to get it done for my usual time. Currently at 2k words, but we’ve got a lot to cover in this chapter so it may take me a bit! It will be posted some time in the next few days. Thank you all for your support and your patience with me as I navigate this fic writing business <3
