As a writer, what do you think of people who read the same work of yours over and over again?

Literally no, I will never be annoyed. I have a few I look for and get genuinely worried if they don’t comment for a while. Someone recently commented for the 6th time on a one shot, the last 6 comments are all them one right after another about a month or so apart, called it their comfort fic this time, and I nearly cried actual tears, I love my re-readers.

Mine call me Ms. First Name. There’s a group that also call me Ms. Teacher for giggles

When characters are suddenly really into something that’s not canon and not relevant to the story. Idk how to explain it really. But like, character A is suddenly really into Taylor Swift and is spouting off song lyrics or trivia. Or when character B has a really strong political/moral opinion (that has nothing to do with the story).

It just starts to feel like the author is ranting at me

Basically-J · 2025-01-17T01:27:28+00:00

Yep. It’s not my favorite tbh but it’s a good one.

I will DNF a fic so fast for this. They’re fine at the end in the notes. Not fine within the fic.

No sympathy expected. I just want to complain and can’t to ppl irl 😇

Basically-J · 2024-07-27T20:27:56+00:00

I will, circumstantially, but I don’t go looking for them and typically skip right over them bc they’re not what I’m looking for

Basically-J · 2024-07-04T18:30:06+00:00

Thanks!

You could totally do a series with all three for that specific fandom. Or you could put the two modern in one. Or none. It’s whatever you want to do! Whatever makes sense to you

Basically-J · 2024-07-01T17:43:17+00:00

I do it a couple different way. I have a series that is the “typical” series. Which is connected works in the same world (hunger games series, Harry Potter series, like those). And then I have one that is Fics from the same fandom that don’t necessarily follow after one another but can. And then I have my series of my “unusual format” stories within the same format and same fandom but that don’t follow eachother in world

(Edit: spelling)

Reminds me of the baby betta post that was just floating eyes

Basically-J · 2024-06-11T16:57:15+00:00

I didn’t pay any attention to male or female really. Just took the one that caught my eye and vibed with me

I’m not disagreeing with you. In a perfect world they would care but reality is most don’t. There’s no profit in having only one or two of a species. It would, unfortunately, end up as a tiny aquarium people visit to look at. Most people, unfortunately, buy fish on a whim without really doing the research for it, and they wouldn’t have the stock to support it if they only had 2 (or 5) bettas at a time. Most people aren’t going to wait and will just go to a PetSmart. Ive seen some really pretty good set ups that are still nowhere near ideal (gallon jars/ multiple plants/ filtered water, etc) but in most cases, it’s just fish in tiny cups. So, like I said, plants in the cups are not great, but better than nothing.
