Hey, AO3 folks (and fanfic writers elsewhere)... if you see this offer, RUN AWAY FROM IT. IT’S POISON.

Please read this twitter thread and then stay FAR AWAY from the people being described…

https://twitter.com/aj_spinner_/status/1557083021949505549

The tl:dr; version: These people want you to “file the serial numbers off” your fanfic and publish it with them.

The catch: If the IP owners ever come after you, you’re on your own… and you have to pay the publisher damages! (Not to mention the IP owner…)

Also: their advances are CRAP. Also: Your advance (such as it is) is obtained by crowdfunding. WTF!!!

So:

AVOID AVOID AVOID. Dear sweet THOTH on his e-scooter, stay away from these people.

ETA: Victoria Strauss of Writer Beware has looked at the contract and declared it “completely incoherent and inadequate”.  

So, honestly… AVOID.

Cross-posting my work to SquidgeWorld without changing anything in them because,,, you know, archive

and omg...

I was writing like garbage

They need to invent writing for sleepy tired people curled up in bed eyes closed and dreaming

Excited for this outcome. Especially because Tumblr is so English-centric, even though a lot of people are not native speakers.

As always, reblog for a bigger sample size.

Put the actual language you write in in the tags!
