anyone have any advice on how to break a HORRIBLE, long standing writer’s block? 🙃

Try writing a topic you haven’t done before. Maybe sci-fi, comedy, tragedy; or your usual type of story in a different time period? A World War 2 or Roman Empire romance, maybe?

Sometimes you have to remind yourself that you aren’t a fish… or was that for hiccups? 😅
Sometimes I write a sentence and that’s enough or maybe somebody kidnapped your muse?

Nope. Good luck though! I’m sure you’ll crack it eventually and kick some literary ass!

To start a new story, finish one of the many WIP, or clean. Hmmmmmm.

The formatting is an issue on older stories after an upgrade. Slowly been fixing my own. How Severus Spends His Summer Hols is a great story!

depends on what kind. I have some that are “all day” and last 8-10 hours. Others that are not long wearing, disappear rather quickly.

After a rather disturbing moment in archive cleaning, I can most honest say that I will not be telling anyone how to get to Sesame Street.

Oh yes, real person fiction is a line I cannot cross either!

Fell down the Tiktok FF/book binding rabbit hole last night. SMH. What is wrong with people?
-
Been reading up… and there’s authors deleting their stories due to the proverbial game of whack-a-mole, which AO3 makes this easier too with PDF downloading. AFAICT, the etsy/book-binding is like charging HUNDRED or more bucks for printed/bound copies of particular fanfictions, acting as the publisher. Yeah, this is pissing the writers off.
-
Rightfully so! I was offended as a reader – you, oh bottom feeders, are jeopardizing our “harmless” entertainment. Go away!
In our defense, downloaded from AFF is not easy. As a writer, I tried with one of my stories to take a red pen to it. NO DICE.

Getting high-priced lawyers involved is how you get the new rules around Star Trek fan-films (15 minutes max, no episodes, etc...), or the rights holder goes Anne Rice and prohibits all fanfiction with cease & desist orders. Anybody rich enough to counter with lawsuits is also well off enough to negotiate authorized derivative works, leaving the average fanfic writer high & dry. Hope those bottom feeders suffer from papercuts, lots and lots of vicious papercuts.
