It really is crazy how if you mention you write fanfiction with people outside fandom, they're always like "you should change the names and try to sell it." It misses the point (fun), but more importantly to me, I get slightly (and I know irrationally) insulted on a craft level. Excuse me, my fanfic is entwined with the canon, thank you very much. I wish sometimes less entwined. You wouldn't believe the stupid bullshit some of my fics have to include because of canon.
Read an article about someone who was trying to be cute and using AI (gag me) to see if it would help them pick an NHL team to root for (spolier alert: it did not. who would've guessed). To combat this techbro thinking, I have complied an incomplete list of acceptable ways to pick an NHL team to root for:
- Generational Trauma (i.e. your parent(s) infected you with this team)
- That one friend (or mutual) who believes misery loves company and you were the one who caved (no suing them isn't possible)
- Geography fucked you over
- You think you'd look cute in the team colors
- The social media team is on point
- Living the Hater life (i.e. the enemy of my enemy is my friend, etc.)
- You put pictures of all the team's logos on a wall and threw a dart
- They have the exact right amount of Drama to Skill ratio to keep you hooked
- You imprinted on one of these losers accidentally and now you care about the whole circus
- Gritty
In the spirit of encouraging people to comment on fanfics while also making it easier to do so, I feel obliged to share a browser extension for ao3 that has quite literally revolutionized the comment game for me.
I present to you: the floating ao3 comment box!
From what I've seen, a big problem for many people is that once you reach the comments at the bottom of a fic, your memory of it miraculously disappears. Anything you wanted to say is stuck ten paragraphs ago, and you barely remember what you thought while reading. This fixes that!
I'll give a little explanation on the features and how it works, but if you want to skip all that, here's the link.
The extension is visible as a small blue box in the upper left corner.
(Side note: The green colouring is not from the extension, that's me.)
If you click on it, you open a comment box window at the bottom of your screen but not at the bottom of the fic. I opened my own fic for demonstrative purposes.
The website also gives explanations on how exactly it functions, but I'll summarize regardless.
- insert selection -> if you highlight a sentence in the fic it will be added in italics to the comment box
- add to comment box -> once you're done writing your comment, you click this button and the entire thing will automatically copied to the ao3 comment box
- delete -> self explanatory
- on mulitchapter fics, you will be given the option to either add the comment to just the current chapter or the entire fic
The best part? You can simply close the window the same way you opened it and your progress will automatically be saved. So you can open it, comment on a paragraph, and then close it and keep reading without having the box in your face.
Comments are what keep writers going, and as both a writer and a reader, I think it's such an easy way of showing support and enthusiasm.
HERE'S THAT BITCH IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR
