history, huh?
imagine writing an escapist queer romance book in 2019 about the first son of the usa turning texas blue and smack bam 7 years later you’ve written a second book about them, there are 2 movies based on your book, and texas is fucking blue. casey mcquiston, YOU ARE THE SHIT!!!!

when you fell right out of the book and you have a romcom coming out in 2027

no, no, it's alright, i guess i just really thought we'd all spend these weeks without ao3 on finding new creative ways to show fic writers appreciation for their craft instead of inventing different discourse shitting on them every six hours, but it's cool, really

"You consented to it being downloaded when you posted" yeah downloaded for personal use. I can download shit off netflix. Doesn't mean the creators agreed to me posting the whole show on twt. Idc about yall sharing my fics but stop pretending downloading=distributing in a drive

put it this way: i'm a fanartist, and i'm totally alright with people printing my fanart out for their personal enjoyment. i would not be okay with someone printing out 200 copies of my fanart to hand out for free at an event without my permission or knowledge.

my take on the ao3 google drive drama: preservation and redistribution are two different things. downloading fic for personal use is fine; uploading other people’s work permission to your own archive and distributing the link to thousands of people is a different thing. (1/2)

maybe i’m too woke or maybe it’s just because i’m a freelance writer irl, but i don’t think fanfic authors should be put in the stocks for saying they don’t want their work uploaded to public settings that aren’t ao3. it’s basic copyright infringement laws 😭

the idea of people being mad about authors going “downloading for personal use is fine, but please don’t reupload it elsewhere for redistribution” is absolutely fucking baffling to me. nobody gets mad at artists for asking for no reuploads lmao
am I too woke of a fic writer to be a little conflicted about fics being downloaded to personal drives without the author’s knowledge and shared/read without the author gaining any site engagment or is this something I should brush off and get over /gen

most fic writers don’t want engagement to “get famous” or anything. it’s just that when you put your heart into something, it feels good to know people liked and enjoyed it. it also helps motivation to write more. if you ignore fic writers, there won’t be any more fics to read🤷‍♀️
I’m actually mad because it took all of five hours for people to start immediately turning on fic writers yet again. God forbid we pour our hearts and time into this hobby and don’t want to do it to a void? God forbid we don’t want our stuff reposted??

Authors absolutely decide how they want their fics shared no two ways about it and common courtesy dictates you follow their personal leads on that... it's not hard. Sometimes a difference of opinion need not be argued and just accepted and moved on from. Just saying.

some authors may be uncomfortable having their work shared *widely* outside of ao3 bc they prefer control over context, tags, edits, deletion. it's not about status and kudos. and if it IS abt feedback, so what? that's how you know you moved someone. it's part of the joy of it

just saying, i am MORE than happy for youse to share epubs & downloads of my fics privately, within the tsitp community but pls don’t put them on public settings :) that data is out of my control & i don’t want to lose ownership over writing i’ve worked hard on 💘

i know it’s fanfic. i know ao3 is a public domain already so my work is already out there and downloadable and i LOVE that!! i’m just being cautious and making my boundaries clear bc copyright is a huge thing, and i would like to still have some semblance of control xxx
