i know the drama is happening in a different (and super mainstream) fandom, but all these bound fanfics for sale is making me so angry

it also makes me grateful for the hbo war fandom because we're small, and pretty close-knit, so anyone looking to profit off of a stolen fic would probably be promptly shut down

but my heart hurts for the future of fandom every time something like this happens, and we take these massive steps back

fanfic is supposed to fun and it is supposed to be free

failure to keep it that way puts us all at risk

Our first teaser for the Six Triple Eight movie was included in Netflix's 2024 upcoming releases promo!!

For those who don't know, the Six Triple Eight is about the 6888th Central Postal Battalion which was the all POC regiment of the Women's Army Corps during World War II. They served in England sorting through the massive backlog of mail that had accumulated. Receiving mail from home was such an important morale boost for the men and high morale wins wars so sorting this mail was a priority. It was a nearly impossible task that the Army predicted would take them years to accomplish but they completed the task in half the time, processing 17 million pieces of mail and sending them to soldiers awaiting news from home. They worked in cold, dirty, dark rat infested aircraft hangars with broken windows. They were so good at their work that the unit was sent to several other areas to do the same thing. The unit was active from 1945 to 1946 and consisted of 855 women under the Command of Major Charity Adams, Captains Mary F. Kearney and Bernice G. Henderson. Their nickname was “Six-Triple Eight" and their motto was “No Mail, Low Morale."

I'm so excited for this film, you have no idea. An entire movie completely focused on telling the story of women. And not just women, black women! It's so exciting! And it looks fantastic just from this short teaser. I know the historical consultant of the show personally and she knows WAC history better than anyone and it definitely shows. The uniforms are pretty perfect. The only mistake I've seen so far, which is in a behind the scenes photo, is the utility bag (their purse) is on the wrong side. But that's a nit picky complaint from me I can overlook. But even the shots are so good!! They're recreating at least one original image I can think of. Which is so cool. God I'm so excited!!!!

Here are some original images of the 6888

Anonymous asked:

wait are you thinking of writing for mota???

Unfortunately, I am not.

I have three books coming out this year (two historical romances, one contemporary that's the third in the series that I published last year), and I have two books and one novella planned for publishing in 2025.

I wish I still had time for fanfic, but all my writing energy goes to my books now. That being said, one of my 2025 planned books is to adapt Dear Heart into an original story!
