Fanfic Appreciator · 5mo

Hey! Thanks for running the event, it looks very cool for fic writers! I finished reading the carrd and I now understood the event will be for 1. Writers, to highlight their own work; 2. Readers, to rec their favorite fics / writers and to comment; 3. Artist, to show love to fan writers with their art. Is that right? If so, please know that it’s not immediate from just looking at the tumblr / twitter / carrd. The carrd would benefit having a page called “Rules” or similar (with what I see now in the prompt page), and the description of the event everywhere would be clearer with a little specification of who is supposed to actively participate and how (like, “writers and readers come together to highlight their favorite works”). (Stress on “readers”, because they’re usually, um, silent.) Also please add a text-only list of the prompts! (Accessibility but also easier on the eye from mobile etc). I hope it’s ok I wrote this, I’d love the event to succeed! Thanks again.

Hello! Your three points are absolutely correct, and the mods will work on making sure that it's clear those are the goals of the event! We will also add a text only list of the prompts! Please allow the mods some time to make these changes, we will try to have them done by the time the event starts!

Thank you for the feedback!
