To all the original writers out there:
You’re doing a fantastic job!
Keep making your little universes come alive.
I’m really really proud of you
Look at all the words you’ve written, look at all those beautiful characters you’ve brought to life.
Thank you!

The worst part about working on original fiction is u gotta wait like 5 years to get a book draft done in order to SHOW YOUR FRIENDS chapters. Ain’t like fanfic where you can just….send em. Tis horrid.
like yes i worked incredibly hard on this 10 page chapter. yes in order to understand what the hell it means you need a 15 hour briefing on background lore. i apologize. this sucks for everyone.
support your original writer friends because they lack like, an established fandom to get validation from. encourage them. encourage people who draw fandomless OCs. give em ur lov.
I hope one day I get to read your work and then I’ll be part of your fandom too.
