All the fanfic readers/writers, after finding out they can't read their before-bed fanfics, and escape reality for a little bit, because ao3 is down:

#ao3 #i had a really tiring day today too #😭 #ao3 problems #hopefully the ao3 team can get it back up soon #we're all rooting for you #ao3 volunteers #why would anyone do this #the evil in this world truly knows no bounds! #fanfiction #fanfic #fanfiction reader problems #fanfiction writer problems #help us! #also #if you have the money #please donate to ao3 and it's (volenteers) staff #they work so hard to both keep the site running smoothly for us and defend it from cyber attacks like this one #so please support them!

I'm also scared to read tsc not because it's too angst-centered for my mental well-being, but because I'm afraid I'll get too involved and dive deep into jerejean abandoning my ongoing andreil fanfic😀

My brain: Ok but what if {something that would derail the entire fic}

Me: *squirts with spray bottle* NO. BAD.

Reading your WIPs is An Experience, because sometimes you're reading through it and you're like:

"Dang, I'm really enjoying this, it has all of the elements I like of this pairing/concept/character in one fic and- Oh, there's the end of it, I wish there was more." And then you realize, "Oh. I'm the one who wrote this. I'm the one who has to continue it." And other times it's like: "Oh my god, literally what is this, it makes no sense, it's garbage, delete, delete, DELETE-"

With all the “fanficition.net stuff is dying” going around again, I am puzzling a dilemma.  I’m sure I am not the only one in this case.  

As an older fan enjoying a second fandom wind, I actually had an old, wholly separate author name on fanfiction.net, back when I was a mere baby writer.  It’s got all of my early mistakes and the limits of having a beta reader only on occasion.  However, I’m actually super proud of those few final works I did before other real life made me take a fandom pause.

Of course, I also know I will not be going back to these fandoms and finishing the handful of WIPs, since current fandoms keep me with more plot bunnies than I could handle in one lifetime.

Is it better to create a wholly different Ao3 ID to port these old works of mine to Ao3?  Or do I put on my big girl pants and load them all under a pseud (and just make clear the WIPs are on hold indefinitely?)

Writing *that* scene slow burn scenes where they ~almost~ accidentally kiss got me giggling and kicking my feet frfr

Is it weird to call something a sickfic if the sickness in question is an undiscovered, fatal illness?

It’s ironic that post I have more notes on is one where I complain about writing Hawks’ pov.

And here I am. Writing a smut with only Keigo’s pov.

Just so I can showcase Dabi with a split tongue.

The things I’ll do for this ship.

You ever just love when someone reblogs, likes, or comments on one of your older posts?

I lap that shit up so much.

It's like a nice pleasant surprise.

"Oh, someone liked this? what was it again" *casually reread old post* "Oh shit, I remember this, I fucking love this. Should I write more? Should I turn this into a fic? This would be so fun but..."

It's like a love hate relationship. I love being reminded of old plots bunnies and prompts I had in mind.

But then I think about just going straight into writing more about it. And it's great and all, but man I've got too many things in progress omg

Damn it. I lost motivation to write today.

Why does this always happen? I make a schedule, I sit down, I open the document...

Then nothing.
