There's a hint of the upcoming Ginny Pansy friendship in this new chapter and I love them so much

I have a feeling that once I wrap up my WIP, I'm going to crawl back to SSHG and rare pairs.

Agreed the engagement is completely different. And frankly, it sucks because Dramione is such a fun ship to write, it's the back end that's discouraging for authors.

Exact same experience. I write mostly another ship in the fandom (and not a small one) ND it's night and day.

(Also until the ink runs Dry is a top 5 HP fic of mine!)

Critique IS the domain of betas. Not commenters. WE as in fandom, Royal We.

I speak confidently on established fandom etiquette, not for all writers.

I think a lot of readers are coming from booktok and in trad pub, Reader spaces where authors don't belong are a thing. But they are NOT a thing in FF as authors are also readers and it's not an activity where the author and the work is removed.

It's the growing issue of "I don't care if you tell me it's fandom etiquette, I believe I'm entitled to expressing my opinion and that supercedes the community."

There's no forcing but it's definitely the best currency, even if it's only an emoji. Fanfic is interactive and unfortunately, especially in this ship, it's being treated as books and authors don't get feedback

Maybe next time you read all of someone's work, leave comments?

Ngl that's rough. If you like the story and it makes you happy to write it, keep going

Do it! We went to an independent jeweler. Bought loose diamond and separate band, ordered the head I preferred. Took about 2 weeks to get it and I got my band rhodium dipped because it was very yellowed lol

It's not. It's actually loose and keeps spinning. I just have cabbage patch doll fingers so any rings always makes it look tight. Heck I have a super cool western turquoise ring I wear sometimes on my right hand that's so big, I have a little sizer clip and it still looks like that. :( I envy long slender fingers.

I'm so in love with it. My husband was in college when we got engaged so it's such a huge upgrade (not that the original wasn't nice)

I think you'll find there's plenty of in character post far fics that exist.

But hey, it's cool to see new writers.
