If you wanna know if it was you that prompted this question, send me a DM.
Seemed to work for me last weekend to know others were out there typing their fingers to the bones, or at least typing a few words.
Who else is working on something? Whatcha got going?
Am trying to wrap up chapter 8 of Blinded By The Fog while the pup is exhausted from 2+ hrs at the dog park.
I hate emotions and feeeeeelings so much. How much? Just took a break from BBtF to go unload and reload the dishwasher AND do hand dishes which i loathe even more than dishwasher stuff.
Hates the feelings.
Since yesterday was a success with at least 4 fics/chapters completed (3 posted) and a killer banner done, let’s keep this ball rolling.
How many of us are trying to write this weekend? How many just need that lil push to finish what we are working on? Need the inspiration that can only come from other peoples? need brain storming? Or just want to cheer writers on as they tackle what they are working on?

Today was not the best mental health day for me. I didn’t mean to abandon you all today.
How did your writing go?
@sarahdonald87 @sweater-daddiesdumbdork @darsynia @ronearoundblindly @jvanilly @joannaliceevans-fanficblog @jynxmirage and everyone else writing today. Tell me.
@peyton-warren since today was meant for me to some writing....that didn't happen. I ended up having a migraine and slept most of the time. But since I'm off tomorrow, I can work on it tonight!
Oh honey I am so sorry to hear that. It’s a rough day for some. I’m struggling with depression today and have a sad friend I care a lot about that I’m trying to support.
I do hope you get some writing done. I got some brain storming done for the slumber party’s week 3 challenge and that’s about it

YOU THERE! YES YOU! FIC READER!
I just read a fic from 2013 and left a comment on the end. The author responded within 3 hours.
Please leave comments on fics. It doesn't matter if you don't know what to say I literally made a joke about a space worm. Please comment on fics it'll make the authors day even if its from 9 years ago.
We so love it. I got one today about a fic that made someone cry. Made me cry that I made them cry.
Me. All day. Madly in love with Blinded By The Fog while brainstorming while running errands. Hating it when I sit down in front of the computer.
Am hearing a trickling of info that people like my stuff, but when I look at the likes, comments, and reblogs on the pieces mentioned, I'm not seeing the folks mentioned in this second hand info anywhere.
I'm so frustrated right now because I seriously doubt my writing skills even though I've been writing fic since I was 14 which was more than a few years ago.
Do you know how many times I have wanted to completely delete Blinded By the Fog because it doesn't feel like anyone gives a shit about it? Same for Stick Handling and all the other series I've been working on.
Seriously if you like an author's work, PLEASE tell them by liking, reblogging and/or commenting. This isn't me begging for me, this is me begging for every other writer on Tumblr, AO3, and everywhere else. Your feedback is what keeps us writing, keeps us driving behind the keyboard. If you want to see more from a writer, tell them, do not assume someone else will tell them for you.
Are you passionate about the lack of feedback writer's recieve? Do you love helping others? Do you enjoy reading and giving others feedback? Then you're definitely the type of person who would be a great admin!
All you have to do is sign up below. This will be up for a week and will close Sunday at 12pm CST. If you have any questions or concerns, my ask box & dms will be open!
the scariest part about being a writer? pouring your heart and soul into this one fic that has taken literal months to piece together only to have this sick feeling in your stomach like it isn’t going to be a hit. not because it isn’t good, no, it’s worthy of a pulitzer, but just because readers won’t interact.
this is my message to my readers and all the readers out there: interact with your writer’s fics. someone can leave a seven word compliment along with a reblog on one of my stories and i’ll think about it for days. writers, good writers, have stopped writing because of the lack of feedback they get. nobody should get the amount of support to the point where they feel it’s worthless to do the thing they’re doing.
readers. like. reblog. leave a comment.
see writing is funny because sometimes you have to google things like “can the human body survive with every rib broken” and other times you have to google things like “is there an ikea in manhattan???”
That moment when you finally figure out the missing piece from your writing and your characters give you the most beautiful and yet completely unexpected scene as a result. 💚💚
posting your fic on AO3 like
How my current writing is going. Ffs. My WIPs keep multiplying and I haven’t posted a fucking thing since fucking May. Wtf
actually @ every fanfiction writer whether you wrote something that got thousands of reblogs and comments and became a staple in your fandom, or you wrote one fic and deleted it, or you write mutilchaptered fics that never get a final update, or write short fics, or long fics, or used to write and now you don’t, or you deleted/orphaned your works, or you only share with friends:
thank you.
sharing your writing is hard. and sometimes it’s thankless. sometimes it’s such a negative experience that I wonder how anyone does it at all. but you are needed; you are wanted. whether or not we properly acknowledge it, you are a vital part of fandom culture. thanks for sharing.
Calling other fic writers: What do you write fic on? What do you like about it? What don’t you like about it?
Am in the market for a new laptop or tablet. Have been using my phone since my last laptop broke and am ready for something new.
Literally just started another one last night.
