a reminder to all readers (whether you do your reading on wp, ao3, tumblr, etc.) that if you like someone’s story, comment and let them know! it doesn’t have to be long, even just a simple “i really enjoyed reading this” will suffice! vote, give them kudos, or reblog! do anything to engage with them! most of the fun in posting fan fiction is finding other people who like the same things that you do, and i feel like we as a community have really started slacking in that department. it’s really not a big ask, but i guarantee you it will mean the world to the author. there are so many writers who give up on posting because they aren’t getting any engagement, which is sad to see. just remember that you’re getting all this content for free, so the least you can do is show your gratitude in some way. let’s bring an end to the era of silent readers, please.
