Commission info!

Hi everyone! Please see my prices for commission:

Writing:

1 ko-fi = 1 request, any ship, any quadrant. 

I’ll write a minimum of 300 words, but will likely exceed that (see my request collection on AO3 as an example of how I write to prompt).

If you would like something longer, get in contact and I’ll give you a quote based on exactly what it is you want written. 

I have the right to refuse any requests based on personal preference (though I never judge) and I study full time, so turn-around is unlikely to be instant. Message me for further details. 

Editing: 

1 ko-fi per 3,000 words, with a 1 ko-fi minimum. 

I have a degree in Professional Writing and Editing and can provide examples of fanfic that I’ve edited this year on request. I can edit to America, Canadian, British and Australian English, and can do line editing (grammar, punctuation) and content suggestion, depending on what suits you. 

I have the right to refuse based on personal preference (though I never judge) I study full time, so turn-around is unlikely to be instant. Message me for further details.

If you’re interested, please get in contact with me. If you think someone you know might be interested, please share this post!

I’m only working on Homestuck at the moment, but especially with the editing, I’m open to negotiation. 

[laurasauras]

hi guys! i’ve been hit with some loan repayments and things are a bit tight right now. i’d really appreciate it if you could share this around. these are well below industry standard rate and i have a legit qualification, but i’d rather work cheaply for fandom than the alternative, especially as there aren’t many structured jobs that will allow me to continue studying full-time.

You can read the post here for more info, but I wanted to just add a bit about what this entails from my POV, on the Support team.  Somewhere between ¼ to 1/3 of all our tickets last month were in Chinese (somewhere upwards of 300 out of 1200 or so), almost all from users just setting up their accounts or trying to find out how to get an invitation.  A lot of the tickets are what I’d characterize as “intro” tickets - they say hi, list favourite fandoms or pairings, or provide samples of fic they’ve written. Although this isn’t necessary on AO3, this is not uncommon in Chinese fandom sites that you have to prove your credentials to get in (in fact it wasn’t uncommon in English-language fandom sites 15-20 years ago).  We respond to all of these tickets, even the ones that just say hi.  We check whether the user has managed to receive their invite or get their account sent up, and if they haven’t, we help them do so.  This means taking every single ticket through our Chinese translation team twice, once so we make sure we understand the initial ticket, and then again to translate our reply. 

This is a challenging process, although we’ve found ways to streamline it and can normally get a reply out pretty quickly (like within a few days).  We do it because this is part of why AO3 exists in the first place - to provide a safe haven where users can post their works without worrying about censorship or sudden crackdowns on certain kinds of content.  We do it because this is important, and helping these users get their accounts and be able to share their works safely is why we’re here.  We hope that we’ll be able to help as many of them as possible.  

There have been a few (thankfully few, that I’ve seen) complaints about these new AO3 users not always knowing how things work - what language to tag with, or what fandom tags to use, for instance.  To this I would say:

1. Have patience and be considerate.  They are coming to a new site that they aren’t familiar with, and using it in a language they may not be expert in, and it might take a while to learn the ropes.  You can filter out works tagged in Chinese if you don’t want to see them.  Or just scroll past.  

2. You can report works tagged with the wrong language or the wrong fandom to our Policy and Abuse team using the link at the bottom of any page.  This will not cause the authors to “get in trouble” (a concern I’ve heard before, as people are reluctant to report for these reasons).  It means the Policy and Abuse team will contact them to ask them to change the language/fandom tag, and if the creator doesn’t, they can edit it directly. 

If you remember Strikethrough or the FF.net porn ban or similar purges, please keep them in mind and consider that these users are going through something similar or potentially worse.  This is why AO3 exists.  We are doing our best to try and help make the transition smooth.

This is also a great time to remind non-asian fandom folk to understand that there could be some cultural misunderstandings in tagging during this transition. 

From @fineillsignup ‘s great post a few months back:

In English-speaking fandom, pairing names are pretty much exclusively romantic and/or sexual. In spaces like AO3, romantic and platonic relationships are specifically separated out with the slash versus the ampersand.

In Chinese-speaking fandom and Japanese-speaking fandom, this is not necessarily the case. In particular, with tags on sites for art.

If you see someone tag a pair of siblings, a parent and child, or even just friends, with what appears to be a “pairing name” such as ItaSasu, that does not necessarily mean the tagger intends to indicate romantic/sexual relationship. Rather, tags of this kind are used freely and loosely to simply indicate close interaction.

You can read the full post here

I know that sometimes people have instinctual visceral reactions to seeing certain pairings tagged a certain way, so please be patient and mindful, understanding that it might not always be the case! 

[fineillsignup]

Thanks @summerpipedream and yeah, fuck everyone who disrespects AO3.

Friendly reminder to the international community that Chinese fan writers have literally been sentenced to prison time for self-publishing fanfic (on the basis of its “immorality”, aka the future antis want, I guess). These people are risking a lot for fandom and AO3 is there for them. A little patience is not too much to ask for.

Not to hijack the weed allergy discourse but also don’t smoke at pride cause if someone has asthma then just the smell of smoke can cause their chests to close up. No amount of inhalers is gonna keep us from being unable to breathe in smoke. Please don’t smoke at pride.

[bringingasexyback]

just dont smoke in populated public spaces like period. its common courtesy no one wants your secondhand and there are tons of health conditions that can cause a negative reaction to smoke exposure, plus it just smells nasty. this goes for weed, tobacco products, and your dessert flavored vapes too

This Pride don’t forget your brothers and sisters fighting for their rights all over the world.

It’s March!! And you know what that means: March Eridan time!

This year I challenged myself more than usual by drawing three characters, a background, and interesting lighting in addition to the usual difficult clothing and poses. I went with a Wreckstuck/Distrait life of Mistakes theme, a great fic series by @temporaldecay​. You can find it on AO3, and the associated ask blog is @requisitionforms.

The character in the Alternian Moon themed palebait outfit is Russel Zephyr. Next to him in a blacker ensemble is Agness Syzygy, and last but not least is our titular Eridan Ampora, in more generic clubwear.

Enjoy!
