not sure how much fanfic you read anymore(?) but looking for tips to navigate the depths of ao3. I remember you mentioning you find it interesting when people go sincerely into fandoms that are typically thought of as not complex enough to write about. like expanding on characters genuinely. There have been many times I’ve looked up movies or books, however, and been extremely disappointed with the little content available. especially with most Disney movies. often crossovers, high school AUs, unfinished “crack” fics…etc. not my vibe. do you have any advice for finding these extremely niche fandoms when looking on ao3 for something new or do you let inspiration take you—“I wonder if this cartoon I’m watching has any fics?”—which is what I usually do. example: I am one of two authors who wrote On the Waterfront fanfic.
I feel this sooo hard its always a shame when you look something up and there's just...nothing. Which is why I ended up writing so much cars fic tbh. Actually lots of fic Ive written I wouldn't have written if there was A SINGLE sincere fic in the tag!
I don't read much fic these days unless it's from one of my fave authors or is a rec. However, my advice for finding good stuff is to look at the bookmarks and gifts of your fave authors! People whose writing you already enjoy likely have taste similar to yours. You cannot guarantee the fic will be for something you actually like--I have no advice on how to mind the depths for fandom specific content--but whatever it is will be well written. I found an amazing fic based on the song "the devil went down to Georgia" using this method. Never would I have looked UP fic for that song, but I am so glad I did read the story. Sometimes fic is better for a fandom you have never considered or don't care for because you can appreciate the wild outlandish creativity required for someone to actually write about it.
Good luck!! especially with the disney movies. that's such a bleak world (unless you like zootopia).
Okay, so the excuses the car people have told me so far have been: we found something else wrong and need to order new parts, the parts arrived damaged so we needed to order new ones again, we didn't have power for a day, and it's taking longer than expected to put your car back together.
I'm gonna call them tomorrow to get an update, what excuse do you guys think they'll inevitably give me this time?
what's wrong with my car?
it exploded
all the mechanics died
they fell in love with my car and don't want to let it go
