Also Any Rude Annons That May Appear Are Not Worth Your Time And Don't Let Anyone Discourage You From Being Creative - Tumblr Posts
hi!!! I was just wondering how many req! fics do you usually have or like working on rn? I'm thinking of getting into writing and taking on requests too but I'm unsure of the workings and stuff TT
Hello!
Currently I'm counting 12 requests on this account, from which I will be accepting about 9-10 of, since the rest of them either don't agree with my rules or are just...not interesting or something I'm not too knowledgeable about (like certain anime/game characters outside the fandoms I write for).
I didn't get this many requests at all before, Wuwa writing really helped me out with gaining more requests tbh, and since it's a fandom I love writing for, it's not stressful and it's really enjoyable for me.
Do have in mind that you as a writer are in the position to set your own rules for your writing account, and you should also be really considerate of your own time, health and other tasks and responsibilities you have in life. Although writing fics is fun, real life and your health always come first. So, if you do get into taking requests and writing, you shouldn't feel ashamed or guilty for taking breaks to tend to your responsibilities outside the platform. Take as much time as you need on your requests. Being hasty can also affect the quality of your writing, and from personal experience that made me feel really bad about my writing, pushing me into burnout and insecurity. So please be kind to yourself, and be a little selfish even when it comes to that.
P.s. don't be shy about sending me your writing account! I'd love to support you or give any other help if you feel the need to hear an outside opinion/perspective!
