I'm kinda nervous about the number of likes, since I'm new to all this. But tbh I am doing this for the 2nd question, because I see a lot of people mentioning Google Docs and that's the worst writing program I've ever known.

Fanfic writer asks

1. How did you come up with your writer name and what does it mean?
2. Which tools do you use for writing?
3. How long have you been writing?

7. What was the latest fanfic you wrote?
8. Which fandom have you written the most for?
9. Favorite pairing(s) to write?
10. Do you have fellow authors who inspire you? 11. Which fanfic completely changed your brain chemistry?
12. Do you prefer bookmarks, kudos, or comments from readers?
13. How long does it take you to finish writing a fanfic? 14. What's the longest fanfic you have written?
15. Pick a WIP and tell us about it!
16. Do you enjoy writing AUs?
17. What's your fanfiction pet peeve?
18. Do you write in silence or listen to something? If yes, what?
19. Which POV do you prefer writing?
20. What's your favorite genre to write?
21. Do you have a beta reader or do you die like a man? 22. Porn without plot or plot with some porn?

Unfortunately very common in the manga industry.

You mean how esp Asahi looks like a completely different person with a new hairline and jaw?

Every bit of cuteness in this part of the chapter aside (like #Kinoshita and #Yamaguchi in the same panel being jealous of #Futakuchi serving), this could be the start of the #FutaGuchi ship for those who remember that Yamaguchi is exactly 1 year younger, and becomes captain after Futachi retires.

Haikyuu manga panels of the Dateko thirst years pointing out and shouting “Roooofed!” to their kouhais blocking Karasuno, and Aone and Futakuchi in the middle of a chest bump, Futakuchi shouting “Yeah!!”

Haikyuu manga panels
1. "THE IRON WALL" banned hanging in the gym. Yamaguchi's thoughts in text: "Disrupt the opponent with a fierce serve, then stuff them with a block."
2. Yamaguchi (front) and Kinoshita (back) from the reserve stand looking impressed. Yamaguchi's thoughts, "That was a perfect example of serve and block!"
3. Score board showing 4th set: Karasuno 16 - Date Tech 15
4. Futakuchi shown looking back over his shoulder. (Ukai's) speech bubble: "Right now, it looks like the only player Date Tech has who stands out as a wicked server is their new captain."

Never been on that site but this is hilarious, esp the implication that Suna read those bots and decided to take action. 🤣

It's not only artists who suffer from that.

the kudos is still there, though

Feeling like a winner when the only engagement in the past week have been scam bots. But hey, this one even left a kudos, and refrains from writing discord, still not bothering to comment on the last chapter (59th) instead of the first.

I had a great time reading your story! It even inspired a comic book version of it. I can be reached at erza_vale on Di$cord if you want to talk about it.

With light of recent events, evergreen.

Society is a construct, designed to justify the cruel actions of the wealthy few to inflict harm on countless lives as much as possible. Therefore, I no longer need it.

The problem is that a younger generation is not being trained by gen AI and socmed to find AI stupid slop stupid, and it's humour funny.

happy at weddings if the people are close to me and I know they really wanted a wedding. Also, if it's people from my side of the world it means we'll be dancing all night long.

But I've also attended many out of obligation, getting stuck in uncomfortable clothes for the sake of that conformity.

🌔🌈Mast🗺️🔨 @mastomad.bsky.social · 8h

That's the thing, a wedding to me isn't two people celebrating their love, but the conformity of their love. You can have partners in life and love sharing everything and celebrating it, but a wedding says that some form of authority validated their partnership (law, society, state, religion). I'm +

That's actually the thing. I never thought much of grand romantic gestures because they're easy. Doing this one out of the ordinary thing is much easier than being there every day and dealing with life together. The quotidian of practising your love for someone has much greater value. Commitment.

People vastly overestimate the capacity of gen AI to make shit up.

I had a lot of difficulty getting into edits for this chapter after all the AsaBoku bits that I have been posting here. I had to pull myself out of that and concentrate on the AoAsa of this fic.

It was a good reminder that I am not yet ready to write an #AsaBoku story because I can't keep distance.

Reaching the 60th chapter, should I start mentioning White Trail chapter references?

There's an old volleyball (the old, all white ball styles) on a dark background, followed by a trail of light stripes (kind of white). The bottom of the picture is also lighter in general.

The text reads:

«Aone / Asahi
«A Story inspired by many Real Lives

another moment they shared. That time Sakusa sat next to Hinata on their team bus was written as almost more meaningful than the ring. Them being in that nature was much more important that "eloping", and I liked that a lot.

OK, confession time: I don't like the whole wedding thing. In fact, I strongly stand for the abolition of the institute of marriage.

That's what I enjoyed here: it wasn't about any of those. It wasn't a grand new thing, wasn't like they were suddenly finally together. It was written as simply +

How I saw that and thought I did not want the likes to go too high. 🤣

When you're doing a longfic for over a year, you need some different output once in a while.
