The Collection has been revealed! \o/

The collection will remain anonymous for a week, until August 17th (the day Xiaoge returned from behind the Bronze Door).

Treats can still be added to the collection anonymously until the creator reveal date. So if you're still working on something and would like to add it while the collection is still anonymous, you have another week!

Finally, since there has been some enthusiastic support for the idea, I will leave the collection open until next year's exchange, so if people want to continue to fulfill prompts throughout the year, you are welcome to do so. Please remember, though, that the rules of the exchange still apply--no treats that do not comply with a recipient's DNWs.

Have fun reading, and please remember to thank your creators!

You've heard of multi-shipper now get ready for multi-headcanoner: where multiple interpretations of the same character coexist in your head and they are all great.

"work in progress" is actually so misleading like it assumes that im actually making progress on my work

its a cliche but im a slut for when a character is introduced as super chill and goofy and then you later find out theyre chill and goofy because theyre too powerful to be touched. the level 100 wizard whos already figured out everything and is just vibing now. big fan.

Harrowing: someone in your Fandom just made an innocuous and harmless post that nonetheless betrays a deep misunderstanding of the character and the character's narrative purpose and you just have to sit there and let them be wrong lest you be an asshole

artists: aw man today was a slow day, i just did a few doodles and colored a sketch from yesterday

writers: never once in my life have i written

[darkspaceboytoy]

Incredibly violent take of mine but I actually don’t think you need to relate to a story in any way to enjoy it. You can enjoy a story even if you can’t point at a character and insert some aspect of your personality or identity into them. In fact I would argue the need for a character like that to be present in every single story you experience is a sign of stunted growth.

I feel like we really lost something when we started looking at writing as a reader-centric product meant to appeal to the desires of a specific audience rather than a writer-centric approach of someone writes whatever particular thing particular compels them/whatever weird thing the demons in their head want to talk about, and people out there who are also compelled, and/or relate, find that writing. A lot of discussions of writing really center around what readers want rather than a writer's exploration. Sometimes as a reader I don't know what I want. I click on a fic or pick up a book I'm not sure about but that looks interesting, and I love it. Reading what I expect to get is it's own joy, but we always need to expand our horizons and not get mad at creators for not always writing what we want/expect.

devotion that corrupts is my favorite btw there's nothing wrong with it ever & it should be encouraged
