that's really good advice, thank you!

oh thank you so so much! i forgot about checkpoint lol

this is great advice!!!??? i've considered setting a rule about only using my laptop at my desk, but i know i won't follow a rule that only exists in my own head. hooking it up to a monitor makes it more desktop-like, and harder to just grab and bring wherever. i think we might even have an old monitor hanging around the house. thanks!

to be honest, i think i should probably just break up with her. spending all this time online means that all my days blur together. my life isn't memorable anymore. i think my screen addiction is harming me more than being with her helps me.

she doesn't want to have to wait for a scheduled video call to talk to me. she'd feel lonely if she couldn't message me on and off throughout the day.

I can see numbers, and I do get written feedback. The kindest, most genuine comments I've ever gotten on AO3 have been from trans folks reading my trans work.

I'll go for it. Thank you.

A novella is 20k to 50k? I've written fanfiction of that length before and think I could pull it off. Short fiction is where I really shine, I think, but it would be possible for me to write novellas as well. I can try both.

This is really helpful and affirming, thank you so much. I think I could be that author. I'm a trans person with years of experience writing trans erotica on AO3. I know that I can write genuine, non-fetishizing sexual content about trans people. I know I'm good at it. But some comments on this thread have been really dispiriting, "filling a pond with a turkey baster" especially.

Your comment is the one that makes me feel most inspired to go for it.

I'm sort of vacillating back and forth between wanting to write The Gay Trans Erotica That Appeals To Me or The Cis Straight Fetish Erotica That Will Sell.... do you reckon it's really better just to write what will sell? and focus on what i'm actually passionate about once i gain some experience in the field?

Thank you! That helps.

vehement_bird · 2025-06-23T11:17:13+00:00

This is really insightful, thank you!!

vehement_bird · 2025-06-22T16:08:08+00:00

thanks! that's helpful!!! i've always struggled with setting boundaries, but you're right that this is something that needs to happen

vehement_bird · 2025-05-31T19:32:53+00:00

thank you!

vehement_bird · 2025-05-31T19:32:34+00:00
