hey pals! in case you haven't heard, i've decided to broaden my horizons! 

breenwolf is going to be retired for the time being, and you can now find my multifandom blog over at xdudes 

i'm still writing for teen wolf (and i have every intention of keeping my AO3 breenwolf), but this multifandom blog is also going to feature a lot of other things like x-men, star trek, dragon age, non-x-men marvelverses, brooklyn 99, etc etc 

i won't be contributing my own fan content for all of these things, and a lot of the stuff i DO create will probably still be teen wolf because that's where i'm comfortable and that's what i like writing, but we'll see! anything is possible!

so i'm still around. i'm just not 100% teen wolf all the time because that got a little boring for me since, you know, teen wolf isn't around 24/7. the new blog is kind of a baby blog and i'm not the most active blogger of all time, but i'm branching out a little with my writing. everything's going to be organized by tag there, for convenience's sake, so if you wanna check it out it's there. 

no sweat if you've been following me/we've been in mutual followship prior to this but you're like "nah" at my new blog. i don't really keep track of that sort of thing. 

my twitter handle is now @gratefulhateful btw.

Why It's Bad Fandom Etiquette To Put Other People's Fics On Goodreads

Obligatory disclaimer: I don’t speak for every fanwriter in fandom, but I do know for a fact that I speak for several of them. Books and fics exist in different contexts. Fandom has its whole other set of tropes, conventions, and expectations. Some tropes and conventions are common across different fandoms, but often individual fandoms have their own conventions and things that are only recognisable to the reader within the frames of that particular fandom. As a fandom writer, we write for the fans within our little corner of the internet. We write based on their expectations, we interact with tropes and ideas from other fics we’ve read. Fanfic is a conversation between fans of a source, and are often products of each other. Taking fanfic out of its context doesn’t work - people not familiar with those fandom codes won’t get it. Books are commercial products that are written over long periods of time, and have gone through many rounds of editing. That is not to say that all books are good, or that a lot of fanfic isn’t actually better than some published books because they certainly are. But books are longterm projects, and fics are definitely not always that. We write comment fics for our friends because they were screaming about that new headcanon they have. We spend a single week writing a pinch hit for a fest because someone dropped out and we want people to have a gift. We write while on a sugar and feelings-induced high at 3 AM because that gif set on tumblr sent us into an emotional crisis. And that’s the fun of fandom. As a fanwriter, that’s what I love. I don’t publish books, because that’s not what I want, at least not at this point in time. I want to have fun with my fandom friends and contribute to the fandoms I love with both more and less thought-out fics. Do you know the best way to take away that fun? Take my fics and put them alongside published books on goodreads and rate them from 1 to 5. Because, suddenly, my fics all potentially have to hold up next to published books on a site that isn’t made in the context of fanfic. It doesn’t matter if my fics are rated 1 or 5 - it’s the pressure of it. It’s the knowledge that even the silliest comment fic I might write and put on AO3 will suddenly be put on goodreads and judged along with books that people have spent months or years writing. If you want to put fics on goodreads - ask. Don’t put fanwriters in that position, because it’s also really difficult to get them removed.

let this be all i say about this: 1. it was a joke 1b. it was me making light of the fact that i felt threatened by a fandom that has decided that it's somehow not misogynistic to say "i REFUSE to read anything in this fandom that uses either of these two female characters" which made me, as a woman, feel unsafe. i felt unsafe because i personally view this mentality as a (micro?)aggression committed by people in fandom forcing women into roles of being "obstacles" or "competition" to men meant to be ignored or trampled instead of embraced as two new great girl characters. this behavior unsettled me deeply and i went to my personal twitter to vent it out so i could feel empowered for 15 minutes instead of threatened in a fandom which is meant to be my escape from the shit i endure daily 2. if you think i think highly of my own writing or you literally do not know me at all. 3. it was never my intent to imply that any one type of fanfiction is inherently lesser than another. i realize it came off that was and i'm really sorry about that. no excuses there. the value of any written thing is determined by so much more than the characters and tropes it chooses to involve. the thibgs i said were understandably hurtful to a lot of people and though i didn't mean for them to be taken the way they were i understand why they were taken that way and am making a concerted effort to do better in the future.I 4. that being said the aforementioned behavior still makes me feel threatened as a woman. i will complain about it; i will only produce content that does not reflect it. if my opinions or behavior ever offend you, i'm willing to talk to anyone off-anon in my ask box OR alternatively you can blacklist "breenwolf" in tumblr savior and block @breenwolf on twitter and it will be as if i never existed. i've been hiatused since september so it's not like i have THAT much circulating content you have to avoid.
