I write a lot of stuff, I share some of it 100% for free. content/trigger warnings are always properly tagged:

Saying “this niche, properly tagged, warned, and rated piece of fiction could theoretically hurt someone” is not a good argument. This properly labeled cookie with the allergen information at the bottom that contains gluten could theoretically harm me very badly, but only if I consume it. Tags are like nutrition labels, and warnings are like allergy information. If you know you have an allergy to something, the logic is to stay away from it. It is the same with fiction. I’m not running through stores yelling at people to take all the products with gluten off the shelves just because it could hurt me. Instead I ignore it and go to the gluten free section and find cookies that are right for me. And if running through a grocery store yelling sounds ridiculous, that’s because it is. Stop doing the same with fiction.

And just like with food, what might be harmful for one person to consume could be quite *beneficial* for others. One man’s trigger is another man’s catharsis.

[randomslasher]

AND if you lack the maturity/self control/awareness to stop yourself from eating things that could potentially harm you, you either 1) are too young to be making your own food choices and should be supervised by a parent/other adult who is supposed to be responsible for you (and the store clerk who put the food on the shelf is NOT) or 2) need to take accountability for your own actions, because if you deliberately consumed something you knew could hurt you as a fully autonomous adult, then you really have no one to blame but yourself.

I’d like to add that within AO3, “Choose Not To Use Archive Warnings” is, in this food analogy, like the food labels that read “This product was manufactured in a facility where [potential food allergens] are used in the production of some products”. It’s not telling you they’re in there, but even more importantly, it’s not telling you they’re not. This is not the same as “No Archive Warnings Apply” which would be the certified [food allergen] free food. One guarantees a certain experience, the other has given you no promises as to what may or may not be included and is very much a consume-at-your-own-risk product.

The order was barked: undress.

She did, hands trembling. Out of fear, out of rage. The woman looked at her up and down like she was nothing but a piece of meat worth less than her time, lie she was doing this out of necessity. Dylan wondered if she could fight. Turn the situation around and not be the one that would come out smelling like blood and alpha.

Or: for one night, Dylan could take what Diana takes every night.

“You don’t fucking growl at me,” Diana, well, growled.

“I’m sorry,” she blinked and kept looking adorably confused. “I- I’m not sure what’s happening to me.”

“You’re hungry and annoyed. But you don’t growl at me, that’s a rule.”

“No, I mean- I want to kiss you,” she tugged at Diana’s shirt. Not a hard tug it reminded her of when Dylan was still small enough to be carried and wanted her attention. It was soft, nostalgic. Innocent despite what she just said. “It has been a while, since I started to think about kissing you.”

Or: Dylan really wants to kiss her sister, and Diana is not opposite to it.

Me: Oh, writing is just a fun little hobby I do. It's relaxing.

Also me: spends hours frantically rearranging 40 notecards on my living room floor while outlining.

and when I say “pick two” I mean that your brain and/or body picks two for you at random at the start of each day

i dont "go on walks," i dont "use character sheets" and i dont "plot before writing," i raw dog it, and if it doesnt flow, I FUCKING CRY.

Just daydreaming about your stories or what you want to write truly is being productive despite what your brain demanding immediate results to and gratification from your productivity might tell you, like it lets you work through details, figure out what you want, rotate scenes around and change things up if you're still unsure about them, have a little fun without committing just quite yet, even if it's not being written down, it is being processed in your mind nonetheless and it is contributing to future productivity and the eventual endgame of wherever you want to be going with it all, even if you're not physically interacting with or creating or consuming something at the moment, you are creating thoughts, coming up with the blueprints, and maybe those blueprints won't always come to fruition, but maybe one day they'll help you build something great, or maybe they just brought you some joy or intrigue at the time and that's fine too, and etc, etc, so yeah, let yourself daydream more

How to show loneliness in a character rather than tell it:

lots of internal monologue and even dialogue with oneself

social awkwardness

despite longing for connection, avoiding it because they are not used to it

or: seeking connection anywhere they can, even in the tiny interactions with employees and strangers

making their home a very comforting space since they spend so much time in it

not feeling invited to activities unless explicitly told they are, and even then doubting it

not even considering the possibility of talking to someone

feeling warmth in their chest after a good talk with someone, only for it to twist into dread and doubt later on
