Hello! Here For Me? I Humbly Request That You Observe The Following Guidelines.
Greetings, all. I am a humble fanfiction author who does the collection Crouching Jonkler Hidden Zonkler on AO3, which is centered around the ship between Jabber Wonger and Zanka Nijiku from the shounen manga & anime Gachiakuta. Kind commenters have named me Crouch.
I made this Tumblr because it became apparent to me that the Janka community is full of kind and funny people I want to talk to. Below are some guidelines for how best to interact with me, as well as my Post Directory, explaining the personal tags I use to organize this blog.
Guidelines
This is an adult space.
Unfortunately, because of the nature of my work and because I am an adult myself, I don't want to interact with minors on this blog. If you send me a message, please be above the age of majority wherever you are from in the world.
There's no need to be shy.
Are you awkward? Great, me too! I do not have experience with being "online" as it were, and this is all very new to me. Perhaps naively, I'm just hoping to have fun and make friends.
Also, I have no idea how to use social media. If I do something incomprehensible, it's probably because I also don't understand what's going on.
I do accept constructive criticism.
Is something I wrote bothering you? Did I forget an important detail, make something super confusing, neglect to tag something upsetting, or other things of that nature? Feel free to let me know.
Do you want to talk to me, but feel unsure what to say?
What is one moment you've liked in the show so far? If you were a Giver, what would your Vital Instrument be? And, if I may be so bold as to ask, what is your favorite moment from my body of work? Send your answers to any of these questions into my ask box!
Do you have a writing prompt or a scenario idea for me? It is highly unlikely I will ever write it, but I encourage you to propose them regardless. Who knows, you might get me. Or you might get someone else!
If you are an author yourself and wish to request feedback on your own work, please do. Unless you specifically request constructive criticism, I will only tell you what I liked about it. Positive feedback is also very important to one's writing development!
Through it all, please allow some grace for me.
I'm currently recovering from a godawful case of burnout. I do appear to be getting better, which is why I'm able to write at all, but the fact remains that I have a very limited amount of energy that can be quite unpredictable. I have big aspirations and a great quantity of ideas, but whether or not they will come to fruition... that is somewhat up to the wind. I am very protective of my mental health, and if I feel that I'm starting to become unduly stressed by my Internet activities, I will pull back and preserve myself. Unfortunately, this means chapters may go unwritten and your messages may go unanswered. Sorry! I appreciate you regardless.
