dear fan fic writers:

hamburgerjimmy:

• IT’S OKAY TO REC YOUR OWN WORK TO OTHERS???!!!?!??
• IT’S OKAY TO PROMOTE THE CRAPOODLE OUT OF YOUR OWN WORK??!!!??!?!
• IT’S OKAY TO REBLOG YOURSELF, LINK YOUR FICS IN ASKS, SUBMIT YOUR OWN FICS TO REC SITES!!!!
• IT’S OKAY, I PROMISE!!!!

sometimes people may try and tear you down for doing this, but you know what? they’re wrong. we’re fanfic writers. we don’t get agents who promote our work for us. we have to, essentially, do it ourselves 

so rec your own work, be proud of what you’ve written. share it with everyone. 

(AND THANK EVERYONE WHO RECS YOUR WORK LIKE IT’S HOT. THEY DESERVE EVERY BEAUTIFUL UNICORN IN THE UNIVERSE.)
