since Vday is coming up, this post is an official announcement that you have my permission to send me horrible, inappropriate, and outright hilarious tumblr valentines
In honor of Lord Byron’s birthday I would like to remind you all of the time that Shelley and Keats, having not heard from him for some time, became concerned for his safety and it was determined that Shelley would go looking for him. Keats received a letter some time later that Shelley had found him in Venice, where he’d been having so much sex that he’d nearly died from malnourishment and dehydration. Keats’ entire response amounted to essentially, “You should probably have let him.”
“I found him, he’s in a gutter.” “Well go put him back”
*pulls up to the fanfic drive-thru window* uh yeah, i’ll take a fake relationship with a side of mutual pining and thinking the other isn’t interested, thanks
It is easy to make people look at art; all you need is a reblog. But
when it comes to make people want to read fanfiction, it can get just a
little more tricky.
To give writers more recognition, and to celebrate their stories, we’ve decided to organize the Fic Rec Days.
On February 10th, 11th, and 12th, you’re invited to rec your favourite fics, from the all time faves to the WIPs you’re currently enjoying.
How? In any way you want!
Create a post saying why people should read the fic!
Draw some fanart!
Create graphics/aesthetics!
Make a fic rec list!
Make a mix!
And so on.
Anything, really; there’s no way of rec’ing worth less than another.
This way, you will:
Promote writers’ fics, and maybe get them new readers.
Make their day, they will be super happy!
Maybe encourage them to write more (win-win!)
Any rules/extra information?
Tag your posts with #ficrecdays
Tag your fandom/ship.
You can always queue if you’re not available!
Readers, please consider leaving a comment on the fics you liked!
Above all else, have fun, make people happy (writers and new readers alike!)
