Hahaha!!! Yes! 😭

For sure!!! 💙💙💙🫶 thank you!

🫂🫂🫶🫶 if it makes you feel better, i missed my chance to meet Rob Zombie at 22 by a matter of 10 minutes.

So i get you 🥹💙

I feel kinda called out because im always drawing Beck in the same greaser outfit. 💀💀💀🥹

Graves, my gothic hillbilly, at least gets a variation of all black outfits.

Oh wow! Really?

It might just be facebook. Im genuinely not sure.

I've even seen some authors on there say that anyone who writes in 3rd person aren't real writers and like??? Wtf? It shouldn't matter what perspective someone chooses.

Insufferable. Im never going back to fb haha

Omg 😭😭😭😭😭

Felt. 😭🫂

I just straight up forget that these other sites exist.

It's like an object permanence issue

Agreed. I dont like how controlling and creatively strangling that mindset is.

I write fanfics as practice and because i genuinely enjoy the IP. It brings me out of my comfort zone, you know?

I would love to join.

Because I've distanced myself this year aside from a handful of peers. Fair warning, though im shy, and it takes me a while to get comfortable.

This is also why i left Facebook last year. The author community on there is so toxic and atrocious. I just can't.

The authors I've met on Facebook in author groups hate it and look down on anyone that does it.

I dont understand it. It definitely makes me feel uncomfortable around them.

Same!!! I constantly feel self conscious about it!

Oh man thats a tough question.

Probably something simple like "its okay for me to practice my writing skills through fanfiction"

Im an author outside of all this and in the author community, fanfic writing is frowned upon... so i have to ignore the guilt i feel writing within another IP.
