Question for Ao3 authors!
As an avid reader who loves, admires and wants to support Ao3 authors, I’m curious as to what is the best protocol for when we come across typos or significant error? I would love to know!
I’m happy to go ‘hunh’ and move on, but I’ve read that some folks feel like typos are like speed-bumps and derail the momentum of the read, and depending on the error, they might even abandon the fic :(
Is there a way to discreetly contact an author in Ao3 that I don’t know about? Would love to know your opinions and suggestions!
What’s the best way for readers to approach typos?
