To post or not to post?

[(Anonymous)]

Anyone else having this dilemma atm? What are you quibbling about and why?

Re: To post or not to post?

[(Anonymous)]

JUST POST JUST POST JUST POST JUST POST

Re: To post or not to post?

[(Anonymous)]

Long fic (~50,000 words) old style canon based hurt/comfort. Normally I wouldn't be dragging my heels on this one but:

1) it has bad things happening to characters
2) the pairing is incest but one of them is from an alternative universe where they're not related
3) there's comfort but no fluff
4) it used to be a kids show and there was a purge of slashers (not just incest pairings) a few years ago

Re: To post or not to post?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah.

I want to post because I! MUST! MAKE! MY! OPINION! KNOWN! TO THE WORLD!!!!

And I don't want to post because that's a lame reason to want to post (and no1curr anyway), and now I'm posting so much that people are tracing my username to other shit, and I don't enjoy being tracked like that.

But I definitely don't want to give the impression that I'm okay with bad shit or that I represent something that I definitely don't. Frustrating.

Posting anything at all at scans_daily, honestly. Somebody made too many posts involving rape, there's been a public call-out on that, a couple of people disagreed with the idea of calling out posters like this; everybody has stayed very civil about the whole issue, we're not talking fandom wank but... boy does seeing this unravel make me uneasy.

Re: To post or not to post?

Should I send submissions to a Whatever's-Trendy-Now-Character-of-the-Day blog that might get rejected because of the owner's anti tendencies or abstain out of fear of getting the whole series banned?

Re: To post or not to post?

[(Anonymous)]

Very introspective fic that has no real plot, it's just a character having thoughts because the canon doesn't explain their thought process or why they made certain choices.

Idk if people want to read that. Nothing really happens.

Re: To post or not to post?

I've been having this trouble because what I write about is really cringe or at least I'm aware other people think so but I enjoy doing it and that type of content brings me comfort. I'm just afraid of what other people think even though I'm anon online and no one really cares about it really. I also feel guilty in the sense I could be dedicating my time spent on it to original work I could make something of but for a really long time I haven't been able to enjoy writing anything that isn't weird fanfic.

Re: To post or not to post?

I've only gotten five requests for a Six Fanarts Challenge, and filled them all, and I don't think I'll ever get a sixth one. Should I call it quits, post nonetheless the incomplete results, or wait possibly forever?
I'm so disgruntled at this friend who "liked" the post but never requested anything, as if my art is good enough for plebes but not for them to be associated with it.

Re: To post or not to post?

[(Anonymous)]

I've been working on a long fic and it's maybe a third done. I really want to post it, but I'm guilty of leaving stuff unfinished and I don't want to post this one unless I'm all done with it.

Re: To post or not to post?

[(Anonymous)]

This dilemma is practically eating my life. Because my fics vary a lot in how smutty they are. Because I'm torn whether to post them under a recognizable handle. Because my fics keep turning into OOC smuff but it also matters to me for my public fics to not be that way. Because I'm afraid of offending people who might have characteristics similar to my OC (and yet I have the same characteristics so why should I worry about that)?

Re: To post or not to post?

[(Anonymous)]

A fic for a themed challenge. My fics are not the best. On the other hand I think that our fandom needs more content regardless the quality, just as a padding, to get juices flowing for other writers.

Once in a lifetime trip

[(Anonymous)]

To curb climate change, the world restricts everyone to one return plane trip in their lifetime. Where are you going to go?

Me, I'd chose Japan.

Re: Once in a lifetime trip

[(Anonymous)]

Some country in the North where I can sit there, people watch and wait to see some northern lights.

Re: Once in a lifetime trip

[(Anonymous)]

I'd like to visit Japan or New Zealand.

I found a sketchbook from my highschool years, now almost 20 years old, filled with dated emo teenage crappy fanart. I marvel at having ever been so young and stupid... Should I post the crappy fanarts, or keep hiding them forever?

What was the last movie or show you watched?

[(Anonymous)]

The Little Prince (2015)

I had mixed feelings after watching this movie, but I loved the stop-motion animation parts adapted from the book.

Whatcha doing today, FS?

Secrets you DO NOT want to be made

[(Anonymous)]

...But want to get off your chest anyway, just lower-key.

Question for Americans

[(Anonymous)]

If you are home schooled, could you still go to an Ivy league University? What would the process be, would it be any different to someone coming from a high school? Can people from regular state run high schools go to ivy league unis?

I'm a little confused on this subject because I've just watched Gilmore Girls and the main character had to go to a really expensive private school just to get into Yale, which seems crazy to me and I don't really understand why.

[(Anonymous)]

What country has the best flag? And you can't say your own

Does anyone need a tutorial on how to make secrets?

[(Anonymous)]

If so, I will make one and post tomorrow

To the person who recced Turn by Saras_Girl

[(Anonymous)]

You caught another one with this rec! I've been reading it for three days straight; it's quite the experience. Thanks for recommending it!

How long do you wait for WIPs to update before giving up on them?

[(Anonymous)]

How much time has to pass for you to assume they're not going to be updated?
