okay, sooo, i have a fanfic, and my character goes through some heavy religious trauma (her parents ran a cult), and i already put 'HEAVY religious trauma' in the description, (i'm using wattpad, i don't have an ao3 acc),

now, the problem is i rezlized that i might need to put the child bride TW on their, (they marry her off when she's fourteen) but i also don't wanna spoil the whole thing, but i also know adding the proper TW's very important,

so should i put it in the description beforehand or should i put it above the chapter that goes into it?

you can do it however you want. I’m aware this is probably not the answer you’re looking for, but I really can’t tell you what you should do because it’s your work and I really don’t think I can make any decision for you here. there’s no right or wrong answer. you just do what you think is best for your work and your preference.

I noticed something. I'm writing a fic where the protagonist experiments with masturbation when she's young (age unspecified, but before 18). Honestly, I'm still not sure how to describe it and how vague it will be in the end. But I thought the content itself was enough to use the underage sex warning on AO3.

But I realized that by putting this tag on the fic, I have a harder time seeing it as a harmless exploration of pleasure, and my brain started to see it as a perversion I hadn't previously thought of. I don't know if anything like this has ever happened to you, what do you recommend?

I don't write about underage characters. not because of purity bullshit (I rarely vibes with characters who are minors, and anything that involves minors in sexual nature makes me uncomfortable so I've never written something like that, but that's just my personal feelings, I still hate purity culture and I still believe writers can write whatever they want, however they want) but mostly because the characters I write about are all middle-aged men and I tend to have a thing for toxic old man yaoi.

that said, there's nothing morally wrong with the underage sex tag because 1. it's fiction, if fiction can reflect artists' real-life moral compass, then by that logic I'm a murderer because I write about characters killing each other, among other things 2. I've said this before but even if someone was romanticizing the taboo things in their fictional works, it's still fiction and thought crimes are not real.

tagging is first and foremost up to each writer's personal judgement. so whether or not you decide to use the tag, it's just... a tag. to tell audiences what's in the story. but fiction does not reflect artists' real life moral compass.

for what it's worth, I use non-con tag all the times — because I love writing about non-con. and I'm not ashamed of it because it's fiction. no one in real life is being harmed. I know that doesn't make me a pervert so it's not something I care or worry about. like... it's literally just fanfiction. I've always loved taboo and macabre art ever since I was a kid, and I've always been open about it. all my friends and family know about it and we're all cool with it.

have fun. kill that cop in your head.

btw if you’re kink shaming people, I hope you know that every single person who reblogs this post and I are shaming you

hi! i would always open to your blogs and read your positive affirmations about writing fanfics. i still get impostor syndrome and feel like my writing isn't enough but it's not as worse as before.

i just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart because seeing one of your comments about just writing what you love really made me come out of an 8 month writer's block and i just can't describe how grateful i am to have stumbled upon your comments 😭😭🤍🤍🤍 thank you so much 😭

oh my 🥹 this makes my day! I’m very happy to hear this! thank you!! 🥹

Sometimes I think I write fanfic for my future self, because I tend to revisit old fandoms, and whenever I do (or also when I get into a new one) the best feeling for me is finding a fanfic that’s already there and turns out to be exactly what I was looking for.

I love this

tumblr staff when everything is working fine and there’s nothing to fix: so how can we randomly change things to confuse our users and risk making it worse slash fucking it up again

“I read this fic you recommended. I read it because of you” is a love language

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

Hi! I absolutely love your outlook on creating media just for yourself and nobody else, and not caring if it gets 10 notes or 100. That's so refreshing and if I'm honest, inspiring, as I'm one of those people who feels they can only create content for an audience. I'm trying my best to unlearn that behaviour though! Especially because my style of content is rather niche,,,,

My hyperfixation is also Squid Game- moreso the Thanos squad, but Gi-hun is one of my all-time shaylas! He deserved so much more!!! And don't even get me started on the 457 ship,,,they were simply MADE for each other I fear??? I haven't made any content for them as a ship, but it's on my list for sure because the dynamic is just AMAZING! Ugh there's so much that can be done for them,,,

Anyway my main point is, you are an absolute inspiration and I love how authentically 'yourself' you are :) Sorry if this is weird but I feel it's always somewhat a positive to tell someone that they're cool y'know?

this is so kind of you, anon. thank you!!! 🥹 it means a lot to me. truly. I appreciate this <3

There is one person who constantly asks me random questions about one of my aus and I love it....

Its just one person, but the fact that even one person cares as much as I do about these stoopid little characters and this stoopid little trope just makes me so happy.

Im so grateful

happy to hear this! <3

Ngl the amount of discourse around AI witchhunts have made me realize that a lot of people who call themselves "anti-harassment" aren't actually against harassment at all.

yeah I may dislike ai, but I’ll always condemn harassment — especially when it’s targeted towards innocent writers whose human-made works happen to have the “wrong vibes” according to some self-proclaimed internet sleuths’ personal judgments

anyway, under no circumstances will I ever condone harassment.

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]
