*sweeps all of my AU ideas under the rug* why must I be called out this way?

i know it’s been said before, but it bears repeating: a big, big part of maintaining your confidence & self esteem as a creator is fully embracing the concept of “you don’t have to be good like them.  you can be good like you.”

for example, i’m not someone who’s particularly good at coming up with complex, elaborate plots or incredibly unique ideas.  it’s just not how i choose to write.  and it would be easy for me to look at someone with an elaborate, super unique plot & decide that because i don’t write like that, i’m not a good writer.  after all, unique plots are good, and my writing lacks those, so my writing must not be good, right?  well, no, actually.  i just have different strengths, like taking a simple premise & digging super deep into its emotional depths.  that’s what i do well & it isn’t any better or worse than people who do elaborate world building or come up with really creative and unexpected plots.

your writing is never going to be all things to all people.  it just isn’t.  inevitably, you’ll have to make creative choices that favor certain aspects of writing over others.  there is truly no getting around that & it’s honestly a good thing, because it means you’ve developed your own style.  but you’ll always encounter other creators who posses strengths that you don’t.  it doesn’t mean one is better than the other or that your writing isn’t good enough. 

comparing yourself like that would be like taking a piece of pizza & a cupcake & going “oh no, that cupcake is so sweet & my pizza isn’t sweet at all.” or “gosh, the garlic crust on that pizza is delicious and my cupcake doesn’t have ANY garlic.”  obviously your pizza isn’t sweet.  obviously your cupcake doesn’t have garlic.  a food can’t have every single delicious flavor at once.  the cupcake is good like a cupcake.  the pizza is good like a pizza.  so you don’t have to be good like them.  you can be good like you.

This is for the slow writers out there. Those who take weeks to write one chapter. Those who take years to finish one manuscript. Those who regularly write only 100-300 words in several hours. Those who take months to put out a new chapter. Those who haven’t touched their stories in years but it’s still a WIP because they can’t stop thinking about/taking notes for scenes/etc.

I see you. You’re valid. Keep up the good work!

It deeply pains me to know that there are some fanfics out there, some golden fanfics, that deserve to be seen and appreciated, that I will never get the chance to read because they’re buried amongst thousands of other golden fanfics and there is simply not enough time to read all of them because of this stupid mortal countdown.

Text instructions for those who prefer them:

Visit a user's profile page by clicking on their username.

Copy their User ID number.

Go to your dashboard by clicking on Hi, username! at the top of the site and choosing Dashboard from the dropdown menu.

Click on Skins.

Click on the button labelled My Site Skins.

Click on Create Site Skin.

Enter the CSS code .blurb.user-123456 { display: none !important;}

Do this for as many users as you want to hide.

If you want to combine this with existing skins (either your own or one of the Archive's), go down to Advanced and click on the button labelled Show. Then go down to Parent Skins and click on the button labelled Add Parent Skin. Start typing the name of the skin you want to combine this with. Tap on it to add it as a parent. Do this for as many skins as you want to add together.

When you are finished, click on the Submit button.

A new page will load with your code displayed. Scroll to the bottom and hit the button labelled Use.

As long as you're logged in, this skin will hide that user (or those users) from you on any device, either mobile or desktop.

Note: one small mistake in what I said - not all user IDs will be 6 digits. Whoops! 7 million users so of course that's wrong XD

[thewickling]

So, you don't have to copy and paste it over and over like ao3cotd does. You can if that is what you prefer. You could just do:

.blurb.user-12345,

.blurb.user-23456,

.blurb.user-34567 {

display: none !important

}

You need a comma after every [.blurb.user-ID] except the last one in the list.

I’m a simple man, I want to be able to focus on one WIP at a time and get the story finished before being plagued with visions for the next story.

“Oh, I love books - I read all the time!” I say even though I’ve literally only read fanfiction the last couple of years, what even are books anymore

[constermonster]

I have FINALLY finished it 😪😪

[louistardust]

[cateil]

I was just thinking about how adorable it is that humans write au fanfiction. Like: Wow I love these two characters and their relationship so much so;

Let them fall in love as mermaids, as spies, as pirates and vampires, in space, in medieval times, in a zombie apocalypse, as hockey players and figure skaters, at a flower shop or coffee shop, the list could go on forever

I like to think of fanfiction collectively as a multiverse where all of these stories happen and they fall in love over and over again in many different lifetimes because I’m a sap like that

Okay that’s all
