This changed me

I’ve read/ am reading fic that are upwards to 150,000 – 200,000. You’re telling me that authors that write for fun are writing a full-length book for the fun of it? They have earned my respect 10 fold.

A friendly reminder.

Adding on to this by reminding everyone to leave feedback on fics. Seriously, y’all, fic writers put their heart, soul, blood, sweat, tears, and time into their writing. The least that you could do is let them know you enjoyed their works. 

Reblogging this for a comparison (・_・ヾ My estimate for the Sub Au fic is 600,000 words. Minimum. This thing is a monstrosity, and is probably going to take me ages to write. So, um, yeah. Feedback on it is very very encouraging.

Admin Mawile: And the first chapter of Reiji’s route is done!! It took me a little while cause I’ve been super busy with preparing to move, so hopefully it’s worth the wait!

To anyone who doesn’t already know, this fic takes place in my Sub Au, more information for which can be found on this blog. There’s going to be a route for each boy, and each route will be divided up into ten chapters.The chapters that I work on will be decided by a periodic Ko-Fi vote, which will also be done through this blog. (●⌒∇⌒●)

The warnings for this chapter include minor blood and violence, forced drugging, psychological abuse, and general DL stuff. Read carefully if any of this bothers you. 

Questions and comments will always be appreciated, and thank you so much for reading! ❤ (∩´∀`)∩

Fic below the cut!!!

Keep reading

Admin Mawile: On the same note, now that I know I need to be working on Reiji, Shin, and Subaru’s routes… I have to plan them (●´ω｀●)ゞ

If anyone wants to send in ideas/questions for them, it would be much appreciated!! I’m super looking forward to writing them all, and I can’t wait to get their routes all plotted out~

Admin Mawile: Alright! Since I posted the chapter I’ve been working on, it’s time to take a vote for what the next three will be! The general idea of what we’re doing is described in this post.

To summarize, one Ko-Fi counts as one vote. Leave in the note which character (or characters, for multiple votes) you want. You can vote as many times and for as many characters as you want. The top three choices will have one chapter of their routes written. 

The voting will go on until two days from the time of this post (10:00 PM for me), or until it hits a minimum of 10 votes~ This is a new thing for me, so I may have technical difficulties, but here’s hoping all goes well!

Thank you in advance to anyone who votes! (⌒▽⌒)☆

VOTING LINK

Admin Mawile: o(*ﾟ∇ﾟ)ﾉ I am having some slight technical issues with PayPal, so things have gone a bit off schedule, but we have gotten half way to the minimum vote count!!! I may work on another Laito chapter while I’m trying to sort PayPal out, but to anyone who can; please vote!!! I really want to work on this fic more, and your support is what makes it possible!! ❤

Admin Mawile: *boops this again* 

I’m still very much in the mood to write the fic, and if y’all hit the goal while I’m still in that mood, you could probably get three chapters out in a little over a week~ (❁´▽`❁)*✲ﾟ* I want to write, so please vote if you can!!
