I endlessly admire fic authors who have betas and write chapters and chapters ahead of what they post because you best believe my needy ass is slapping just-finished, mildly edited and typo-laden fics onto AO3 the moment they’re done so I can get that sweet sweet validation

I hate it when I get comments on AO3 that just say “Is there going to be more? Please?” I mean, I’m glad you like it enough to want more, but it takes time and inspiration that may or may not appear on command. The “please” doesn’t make it any less demanding. Also, what part of “this work is complete” did you not understand?

I’m sorry I’ve been so delinquent about updating fics lately. I’ve had sources of stress coming at me from all directions and I’ve been feeling constantly tired… more than usual, I think. Brain-tired. I’m working on things, but slowly and with a lot of interruptions.
