something I think we all know about fanfic, but don’t talk about because it would hurt writers feelings is that some fics are like fast food. I mean this as a compliment. I don’t always want to sit down for a six course meal that will be a flavor experience. Sometimes I just wanna dip some fries in a frosty. Sometimes I want something homecooked and delicious and super niche, but super comforting. Sometimes I want to eat an entire dark chocolate cheesecake in one sitting even though I know Its gonna make me sick. Just. holy crap, y’all. Sometimes I don’t even want fast food, I just want to eat an entire bag of chips. and yeah, I’m ashamed of myself afterwards, but at the time it was exactly what I wanted. So, no, we’re never going to say to our fanfic writers that we consider their writing to be the equivalent of a midnight run to taco bell - and we shouldn’t, feelings would be hurt by that. But writers, please, please, please, remember this. You don’t need to create a six course meal if you don’t want to. You don’t have to make something complex and homemade if you don’t want to. You don’t even have to finish cooking it - because someone will be thrilled that you brought a bowl of cookie dough and a spoon, because they cannot even consider sitting down and having a proper meal right now. It’s okay writers, whatever you decided to make. Someone was happy to have it. You gave them what they needed. You made them happy. You did good.

I don’t know why being fast food would be considered insulting!

A few years ago, I read an essay by a romance writer who openly admitted that her books were trashy, formulaic, and not Great Art. But what she said is that she gets fan letters all the time. From women with six kids whose only time for themselves is reading her books. From women in abusive relationships who read her books to give them hope that loving relationships exist. From women with depression who manage to eke out some pleasure reading her books. From women whose lives are awful and who read her books to give them the strength to live another day.

And– she points out– the writers of Great Art have many virtues, but they do not generally get fan letters from people whose lives are miserable and who seek out comfort and joy from the books. Because most of the time when our lives are awful, we don’t seek out Great Art. We seek out, well, literary fast food. We seek out emotionally manipulative hurt/comfort or fluffy coffeeshop AUs or Mutual Pining where there is Only One Bed.

Be proud of your work! Be proud of making literary fast food. Try to make the best damn literary fast food you can. Because somewhere out there– you might not know who, you might not know when– there might be someone who has just finished their last final, or who got fired from their job, or who is up all night with a newborn, and your fast food fanfic made their lives better. And that is no small thing.

YES! And! It is not an either-or, fine dining vs fast food, it is a whole spectrum! You’ve got your Olive Gardens and Panera Breads in there as well as your White Castles and upscale French restaurants. You’ve got your grungy hole-in-the-wall Chinese takeout that serves the best dumplings you’ve had in your life. You’ve got your local Jamaican restaurant that seems to operate out of someone’s front room of their house! You’ve got your Mexican food trucks! AND! The best part! There are SO MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD and they all like different things! So every single one of those types of food/restaurants are necessary and important and part of a healthy community. It’s like ecological biodiversity.

AND. Even the “crappiest” fast-food burger can be made with love and care. Just because it’s not haute cuisine doesn’t mean the chef can’t take pride in their work.

What happened to your Blue Diamond Steven AU? Will you ever return to it?

Unfortunately since I am no longer hyperfixated on SU, I am not really interested in continuing it. I may get hyperfixated again at some point, but for the foreseeable future the AU is on an indefinite hiatus
