the scariest part about being a writer? pouring your heart and soul into this one fic that has taken literal months to piece together only to have this sick feeling in your stomach like it isn’t going to be a hit. not because it isn’t good, no, it’s worthy of a pulitzer, but just because readers won’t interact.
this is my message to my readers and all the readers out there: interact with your writer’s fics. someone can leave a seven word compliment along with a reblog on one of my stories and i’ll think about it for days. writers, good writers, have stopped writing because of the lack of feedback they get. nobody should get the amount of support to the point where they feel it’s worthless to do the thing they’re doing.
readers. like. reblog. leave a comment.

Remus: [drunk at a random muggle bar] oh my best friend, Sirius, his parents were abusive so he hated violence. Anything that would hurt people, too.
Random woman at the bar: where is Sirius tonight?
Remus: oh, he’s in prison for murdering our best friend
Remus: kinda wish he left a note, yk?
James: alright I need to swear-
Sirius: fuck.
James: swear as in promise??
“They'll never know how I'd stared at the dark in that room. With no thoughts, like a blood-sniffing shark. And while my dreams made music in the night, Carefully, I was going to live” but it’s Sirius Black leaving.
“But I have seen the same. I know the shame in your defeat.”
But it’s Marlene realising that Lily has to same feelings for boys as her.
Sirius: you’ve always been jealous of me!
Regulus: jealous of what? Of your lack of responsibility? Your immaturity? Your total disregard for other people's feelings?
Regulus: your lack of any critical thinking? Your ignorance? Your unawareness to anyone but yourself?
“If you feel lonely, I could be lonely with you”
