Yuletide Weather Forecast:
 
Temperatures are estimated to fluctuate between active panic and total apathy into the next weekend. Main assignments will have a minimum temperature of regret and a complete climate change once editing is complete. Expect treat writing to continue at all free hours unless the dangerous front of procrastination cropping up in the Northeast successful moves into the area, effectively killing the treat storm conditions for the season.

Re: Do author's notes ever bother you?

[(Anonymous)]

The only one of those that doesn't bother me is when they said they struggled with writing the fic, except for when it implies that they struggled because they hated my prompts or that it's somehow my fault.

The author announcing that the fic isn't betaed makes me think that they're a dick who somehow thinks not caring about SPAG is something to boast about. You have no beta? No problem. You just proof-read it yourself, run five spellchecks and let Grammarly have a look. It's just nothing your recip or your readers need to know.

"I'm going to finish this later" will make me insta reject and tell the mods. Either gift a finished fic or default.
