well, you haven’t seen the asks I’ve seen some of the other writers getting….like I ageee with you, no one ever tries to take up space in the fandom (and I really just write what I want to and people like to read it which I’m eternally thankful for) but recently the 1d fandom has become so toxic when it comes to fanfic; like I read an ask that someone actually sent saying that the reason why newer authors don’t get attention is because the older authors don’t move on/give them the space (which, wtf, that’s not the authors’ fault) and I also a bunch of anons send an ask to someone running a fic exchange that they didn’t like the fics being released in the exchange (like it’s the mods’ fault) and it caused the mod to deactivate her 1d blog, so like ?????
but thanks for your kind words about my fic!!
