There's been some absolutely dumb fanfiction discourse the past week, but "Authors Notes being informal when the story itself is polished is a sign of AI" is a whole new level. I proofread and polish my chapters meticulously. My author's notes are lucky to get a spellcheck.

So, I finally sat down with my partner and we watched Witch Hat Atelier in two, multi-hour sittings. ...I am...changed, as a person. Two episodes in, we both knew we were watching something special. By the credits of the finale, we both just sort of sat in silence. ...god DAMN.

Chipotle is now working with Palantir. The chain is working with the company founded by Peter Theil and Alex Karp to track employee illnesses, Health Department scores, food safety issues and more. It’s not clear how long the partnership has been going on or how widespread it is. newrepublic.com/post/215501/…

Watching the KPDH fandom collapse in on itself is, frankly, exactly why I originally planned on quitting publishing fanfiction altogether once I hit 2,000,000 words on AO3. Well, I'm at 2,900,000 now, and I'm 30 years old. ...I'll flip a coin come January, at this rate. Sheesh.

I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He’s still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 20 minutes … about IRAN, UKRAINE, the unfolding situation in MAINE, my visit to the TR Presidential Library, and even a little bit of Senate history. I told him we want to see him back at work as soon as possible.

Using Mitch McConnell's vegetative corpse-to-be as a political blockade to a special election is such an on-brand Mitch McConnell thing to do.

I've also been getting substantially more hate comments in the past year which has been a pretty big factor into why I haven't been posting as much, because I've been keeping more and more of my stories to myself just to avoid it, but that's neither here nor there.
Every time I've posted anything KPDH, I actually lose more subscribers than I gain. Normally I don't care about that sort of thing, I write my shit for ME, but boy did I notice it after posting last night and waking up this morning. Let me live, RWBY fans. Let me liiiiiive.

(But honestly in all seriousness never actually feel obligated to stay subscribed to accounts whose interests have moved away from yours. I'm glad y'all enjoyed the stuff I posted that got your attention, and I hope other authors are feeding you. ♥️)

Did I just randomly write 6k words of chapter one of a Weeping Hearts sequel at 6am after an all-nighter? Yes. Am I now going to put it down and forget I did it for the next year? Also yes. I'm such a Good Writer™️ 🤪

My strategy isn’t “write for myself” it’s “have an insane ego.” Some of my fics I love flop and I’m like “y’all are wrong. Its awesome. Im sorry you didnt enjoy it.” I don’t love all my fics but you cant shake my belief that certain ones are good unless you give me good critiques
This is dumb and vulnerable and I may regret asking and delete, but here goes anyway: fic writers, how do you deal with the heartbreak of having a project you were very excited about absolutely flopping? I had a bunch more planned & written. I can’t bring myself to open the doc

Never stop saying "dozen" and "half dozen". Never stop using the word you read in an old novella. Never stop using your regional jargon. Don't succumb to an internationalized English stripped of its whimsy and romanticism in the name of streamlining global commerce.
I don't understand the point of using the term "dozen". It means 12, so just say 12? It's even worse when people say or type "half a dozen". Just say 6 or six.

In honour of Ao3 moving out of beta I think we need to remind everyone that ao3 was founded to fight censorship. Literally made as an Archive for fan works because every other site would delete “problematic” works or cave to outside pressures If you don’t like that, leave.
