Oh, a Woman's Life For Me @miseriayourcaptain - Tumblr Blog

why did you kiss me, the other night?

kisame blinks and looks down at you.

why’d you let me?

head empty, just thinking about soldier!Kisame falling for medic!reader, because you’re soft and sweet and kind - and then he fucks you, because what sets the mood like fighting in a fucking war. this was supposed to be a drabble, like five paragraphs tops - but the brain rot took over. also itachi makes a cameo, everyone wave to our favorite boy genius. this is an AU(ish) - don’t ask me world building questions about anything cause i don’t have answers.

smut’s pretty tame, mentions of fingering | finger sucking ooo | lil’ bit of cum play if you squint; this is honestly pretty vanilla oops.

Like I said on Instagram, I wanted to do something season theme related, but I couldn’t finish all the ideas I had because I was busy in the kitchen with all the food business stuff.

So here I’m sharing the sketches I made and like them and hope I can re-use the other ones

And Happy new year!~

“Do not touch me!”

“So, this is it, I guess?”

“I thought I could trust you.”

“You were my family.”

“This is not something that can be fixed by simply wishing it away.”

“I had to see this for myself. To know it’s true.”

“Are you sure you want to go there?”

“I don’t want to talk about it anymore.”

“We tried, but it just didn’t work out.”

“So, this was all it was to you?”

“It was probably never meant to last.”

“Don’t say this right now, when you couldn’t say it before.”

“Maybe we have to except the inevitable.”

“There need to be two people willing to fix this.”

Take it from someone who has been around the fandom block:

fanfiction.net is dying.

all the signs are there.

if you have no other record of any fics you have there… you might wanna… like… do something about that.

k-vichan

Whoops. I did not intend for this post to blow up in the way it did. I’m not saying this is gonna happen tomorrow or even this year. I don’t have any inside information, and I’m purely basing it off of past experience. They could surprise us. Who knows?

The signs I’m seeing are based off of watching other fandom-driven websites in their end days.

The biggest glaring red flag: they no longer have any visible active moderation team or admins that are working on Fanfiction.net specifically. Reports are going unanswered on everything from plagiarism to abuse to page-breaking ads. Emails are not returned. Twitter mentions are never addressed.

Based off of their limited Twitter activity, all of their resources appear to have been funneled to FictionPress, leaving Fanfiction.net to flounder. If a website does not have anyone actively attending to it, it will eventually die.

The abuse alone could drive users from the website. When users are receiving repeated death threats and they have no way of curtailing the abuse or banning abusive users from messaging them, users will eventually just leave. Admins would have the capability of blocking the IP addresses of people sending abusive reviews and messages, but… what admins?

The code update that went through a few years ago that broke many old fics was never fixed. Many users are reporting major issues in uploading fics. The more they leave the site unattended, the more things will break.

The domain is registered through 2028, but if they keep going in the way that they are sooner or later it’s just going to wind up as a barely-functioning corpse of a website.

I am convinced that the only reason they leave it up is to collect ad revenue. If users continue to leave due to abuse and unreliable service, that ad revenue is going to tank.

I’ve seen this happen to so many websites over the years, and they rarely - if ever - get a revival.

But again - they could surprise us. I’m not counting on it, though. Nobody’s home anymore.

demishock

This is well-timed, because I logged on there a couple months ago to back up all my old fics. Put in my username and password. Someone else’s account information loaded up. I literally logged into some stranger’s account with my own user info. My fics were there, but the profile (including the user ID number) was someone else’s. I took a bunch of screenshots and sent in a support email aaaaaaaand nothing. I managed to snag all my fics and that’ll be it for me for that site. I don’t know wtf is going on there but it ain’t good.

baejax-the-great

Reblogging again because my friend mentioned being locked out of her account and ff.net blocks people from copy pasting, so she was afraid her fic would be lost forever when the site eventually goes down.

If you are in danger of losing all your old things, I found a reddit thread with a number of work arounds so you can get your fic off the site.

mommacomms

As of 26 March 2021, the staff of FictionPress have confirmed they are migrating FFN to the same server - which is extremely bad news for that server and for FFN as a whole. Lots of technical stuff is going haywire too based on using the Inspect tool in Google chrome. Get your fics while you can.

saccharii

Hey! If you didn’t know you can copy and paste from ffn’s mobile site. If you want to copy paste from the browser for convenience sake go to m.fanfiction.net

beatrice-otter

There is actually a downloader tool, https://fanfictiondownloader.net/

You can either download the app or do it on the site. All you need to do is give fanfictiondownloader the link to the first chapter, and it will download the entire fic in one document in a multitude of different formats. epub, mobi, PDF, txt, rtf, html, a couple of others I don’t recognize.

You can do this with any fic you want, by the way, if you (like me) want archival copies of your favorite fics so that you will still be able to read them if/when the site goes down.

pingo1387

If you’re able to access your account still, FFN also has a built-in downloader for uploaded stories. Go to the story you want under “Manage Stories,” click on the Download option, and it will generate a webpage with the full text of your story. (This is only if you want a text copy of your own stories, not someone else’s, but as someone who is planning to rewrite several stories I found it useful.)

bridja02

Okay please I am panicking. I’ve been using FFN for so long and for some time I noticed a lot of bugs myself. For the Naruto fandom (which I know has most of fanfiction on this site) please, let your favorite writers know about this or tag them, so If they don’t have their works saved, they can post them somewhere else. As a reader myself, I will be trying to download as much as I can. I rarely use AO3 and I always used FFN so it’s a big deal for me T.T

@behindheremeraldeyes @southsidestory @theredconversegirl @scribe-of-elysium @lady-otori @soulairee

I could only remember these writers from the top of my head, and I’m not sure if all of you have your works backed up here on Tumblr or AO3. These mean so much to me so, better be safe than sorry. :’(

southsidestory

Honestly, I’m not at all surprised to hear this.

I’m also not very sad about it. Let me tell you why.

As a writer, FFN is a fucking nightmare to work with. It has so many problems on a technical level in terms of posting. The fact that there is no permanently editable text for each of your stories is?? Such poor planning?? There’s no author’s notes function, so you just have to write your notes into the body of the fic, which creates a falsely inflated word count in long-running stories, if you’re a person who consistently leaves author’s notes. The character count allowed for summaries is absurdly limited. There’s no tagging system or warning system. The list goes on, but I won’t bore you.

Idk how many of you know this, but explicit fic violates FFN’s guidelines. Which means that the FFN demons could ascend from their hell at any moment and wipe out my smutty fic without warning if they wanted to. They’ve done it before in purges in 2002 and 2012 iirc. So we’re due for another one!

But worst of all is that FFN is built to make money at all costs, even when it’s at the writer’s expense. You can’t even delete signed reviews! I’ve had a troll bounce around different accounts and leave MASSIVE nasty reviews on my stories and others’, and we couldn’t do a goddamn thing about it because those reviews were signed, not anonymous.

If Naruto fandom migrated from FFN to AO3 tomorrow I would rejoice, pack up my shit, and never touch FFN again. The only reason I still use it is that I’ve got so many followers over there. I don’t even need it to keep up with my reviews, which are precious to me. I’ve always had email alerts set up for new reviews, so I’ve got copies of every comment I’ve received on FFN saved in my email.

As for backing up my fic, 95% of my Naruto stories are cross-posted to AO3, and I have drafts of ALL of them on my Google drive. I encourage other writers to keep all your writing saved somewhere secure, exactly because of shit like this.

Thank you for tagging me @bridja02! I recognize that this is scary for someone who has been reading on FFN for a very long time. But! I don’t think Naruto fandom is going to die if FFN does. I’ve noticed a big uptick in commenting on my Naruto fic on AO3. I suspect that this means readers are getting fed up with FFN’s crap, and rather than quitting fandom, they’re just moving to AO3. Which is a much, much better site in pretty much every way.

@birkastan2018 will you boost? I know you have a lot of fic reading and writing followers!

classysassy9791

Glad I already started migrating to Ao3! Never had any real issues with FFN, and it will always be in my heart due to how many years I’ve spent there, but its been a dying site for a while now.

the-rebel-alchemist

Goddamnit. Now I need to think of moving my shit all over again.

elohiniar

@the-rebel-alchemist….more Lucky Seven!!!!

Migrating is a good idea especially for people who write explicit works. LOL how many of us break that rule?

the-rebel-alchemist

@elohiniar TLS is already cross-posted on AO3 anyhow. It’s moreso the stories I don’t have on there that I need to mull over.

write-it-motherfuckers

I left FFN for Ao3 many years ago, mainly because of the constant negativity I was getting from readers and trolls (so many death threats, and so much entitlement, and whining). In comparison, Ao3 has been such a positive and encouraging space, with very few nasty people (Most of which end up blocked by Ao3 per request).

Even so, FFN was a huge part of my past, and while it’s been on it’s way out for years, I know there are still many who are active there.

Please make the move as soon as you can, and be sure to notify and support your favourite writers.

While it doesn’t have to be Ao3, I do feel that it’s the safest option, given how much work their team puts into protecting everyone’s ability to actually create fanworks, without legal retribution. (Something that sites like wattpad, don’t do, or even actively threaten. This is also where a significant amount of Ao3′s donations go, by the way.)

Whatever your choice though Darling ones, I suggest you make it soon. The owners of FFN don’t care enough about their users, to provide other options of saving your work, if you leave it too late. Act now, while you still can.

Good luck Darling ones.

Writing a Blind or Visually Impaired Character

A Multi-Step Guide Written by a Visually Impaired Writer and Blogger

I’m hoping this blog will over time develop its own following, and when it does people will inevitably see my bio and notice what I included: I’m visually impaired.

Yes, a visually impaired writer, and I’ve written with two blind characters before so I have some practice in the field.

So, inevitably, someone is going to ask how to write a blind character.

Or, at least, I hope you’ll ask someone who’s actually blind or visually impaired about writing a blind character before you get too involved with your new WIP.

All parts will be tagged #blindcharacter in my blog, and I will add links to every post as I finish each part. Follow my blog for more writing advice.

Note, this post updates fairly often and old versions are still floating around out there. The most current version of this post is pinned to my blog with any new guides or links you might of missed.

As of 24 January 2021, this is the most extensive and screen reader friendly version of this post.

Part One: Crafting the Blind Character

In which I tell you how to begin making a blind character who is more than a cardboard cutout

Part Two: Narrative Choice, Visual Description, Verbal Description, Social Interaction

In which I give you a basic rundown on how to write from the perspective of a character who can’t see and still make the narration descriptive

Part Three: Tropes and Clichés to Avoid

Your blind readers will thank you for not being the 5000th person to do this and manage to actually finish your story. (Do you have any idea how many stories I’ve noped out of within two chapters because of these clichés? A Lot.)

-New- Part Four: Canes, Guide Dogs, and O&M

Everything I can tell you about 1) how to learn how to use a cane 2) how a cane works 3) how to describe what your character experiences with their cane 4) everything I know on guide dogs

Part Five: Small Aspects of being Blind You Never Thought Of

5 January 2021 Edit: This link has been fixed to correspond with the correct post

Or, really, very normal everyday things for blind people, the inclusion of which will make your characters more real and authentic. It’s the tiny details.

Part Six: Should You Cure Your Character’s Blindness? (Short Answer: No)

There’s no way to write a cure for your blind character that doesn’t make blind readers hate you. Sorry. We came here to finally experience a relatable character who experiences the world like us, but none of us are getting cured so seeing this character we learned to love become something alien from us in the end feels like a slap in the face

Why I’m Blind and What I See -NEW-

I thought I’d finally make a post explaining the complicated situation about my vision. Includes an explanation of visual snow and exotropia, two of the three causes for my vision issues.

Writing Blind Characters Falling in Love, an Advice Post:

Someone asked what being blind and falling in love have to do with each other. Honestly, blindness changes your perspective on everything and it makes an impact on every relationship you have. This includes some things that you definitely do not want your character’s love interest to be/do.

Writing Blind Jokes (Should You Do It?)

You know those flow charts of “should you do x?” going around? It’s like that, but screen reader friendly. Should you write blind jokes. It’s pretty complicated and there are a lot of possible scenarios and details to consider.

Advice for Writing Toph Beifong -NEW-

In this I discuss what I would like to see done in fanfiction with Toph’s character after ten years of reading Avatar the Last Airbender fanfiction

A small essay addressing the frequently asked question on giving your blind character a superpower to help them “see.”

It’s became a popular question, so to make the answer easier/faster for everyone to access, I wrote what will usually be my initial answer. Below there are a few links to some notable past questions on this subject.

Mourning My Vision, it’s More than Depression.

A small personal essay addressing the nuances of the mourning period you experience with a new disability. The mourning period is mentioned in other guides, but this is more detailed.

Dealing with Heightened Senses, a video by Molly Burke with additional commentary by me

While Molly talks about the myths and truths about heightened senses, I talk about the correlation with blindness and neuro-divergency and how co-morbid disorders/disabilities might affect sensory processing.

Satirical Commentary on the phrase “that blank look in their eyes” used too often in fiction to identify a blind character

a:tla, I’m looking at you (and my eyes aren’t blank)

I Found a Lost Piece of Blindness History

My grandmother told me about her blind aunt and how she sent letters. It led me to speculate about all the O&M things people develop on their own but never get a chance to pass onto other blind people. Technology and techniques are lost in history and reinvented, including the white cane ad guide dogs.

Includes a little history on the introduction of guide dogs into the 20th century
