HELLO, HUMAN. I hope this letter helps you freak out 80% less about your fic. Isn't writing a beautiful pile of garbage? Yes, yes it is. I think the tl;dr here is go with your gut and I'll probably love your idea no matter how ridiculous it is. There's absolutely brilliant fic out there with the premise "Taylor Swift is a space goblin". YOU'LL BE ( Read more... )

I have to find a way to go back in time and stop myself from ever reading a comic book. I would now be a happy person who has not been fucked over by all of her fandoms. ( In short, DC has hurt my feelings. And that's terrible. )
