psa about cinderella and maybe just some food for thought if anyone would like to discuss their opinions or thoughts on what i have to say (i’m literally just having a yap at 2:45am cause i’m in my feels and just wanna put my feelings out into the universe to maybe get a little bit of closure)
i’ve never really believed in unpublishing fics. it always hurt me so much when authors unpublished fics that were so near and dear to my heart. because of this i’ve kept cinderella up, even through all dream’s controversies. i always felt so embarrassed having it there, but it’s just so special to me in so many ways. i’ve been on this app since 2017, and the fic was written in 2020/2021 and it was electric watching it blow up, especially after writing for so long with little success. it was my only fic to really ever do that well and its always gonna have a place in my heart. it was so much more than a dream fic, i think about bambi and techno more than i’d like to admit, and they were truly the highlight of that book for so many people. i feel like that’s what kept me from unpublishing it—i wanted to leave it out in the universe for anyone to go back to if they needed the comfort because i’ve always hated feeling that loss. plus the sheer amount of messages i got saying new chapters made peoples’ days and cinderella as a fic saved lives was enough reason for me at least to want to leave it. all this to say,
i am finally taking cinderella down. if anyone ever finds this and wants a copy of it don’t hesitate to let me know cause i will find a way to get it to you, but i think it’s time for me to let go of it and cleanse this account, because it’s truly not a reflection of who i am or who i want people to think of when they come across ol’ emptyloves. anyway i love everyone i’ve ever met and known and interacted with through this app, know i miss you dearly and wish the best for all of you. thank you for reading if you got this far, sorry for the run on sentences, mwah.
