Always Remember That The Only Purpose Of A First Draft Is To Exist.

Always remember that the only purpose of a first draft is to exist.

i think @monvante agrees with me lol

Talking with writers online

Their stories: Amazing grammar, soaring vocabulary, beautiful imagery and prose which flows like a river.

In chats: no capitalisation or punctuation, swears like a sailor, misspellings everywhere, acronyms and abbreviations every five words, idek

I am absolutely filled with adoration for people who leave comments on fanfic. 

Bless you for your all-caps screaming and your keysmashing, I can spend days smiling like a goober in public places at the memory of it.

Bless you for your entirely needless apologies over commenting in a second language. I am so impressed by you! The most I know in any language besides English is how to introduce myself and maybe ask for the bathroom! You are so cool!

Bless you for coming out of your shell to comment when you’re nervous about doing so! Fanfic authors are a voracious species, but not a picky one. Even the smallest one-sentence comment is good food! 

Bless you for quoting your favourite lines, or sharing some insight you gained into a character through the fic. It makes it so clear that you really read and absorbed all the little bits! 

Bless you for noticing small details around world-building and setting and whatnot! It makes the googling worth it!

Bless you for commenting your own headcanons and ideas! They help me expand my own understanding of the setting and characters!

Bless you for writing your own fics! Get out there and put those characters in Situations™! 

Aaagh I just…I love fandom so much, I really really do. 

i'm so sleepy, i can't remember if i sent you an ask, but happy valentine's day! i love you so much 💌

i will eat him 🥢
