Was in a discussion on Insta about being Asexual and when I mentioned I have a comic with one of a number of ace characters, and the ace-demi protagonist runs into one of her HS teachers, whom she had a crush on. Now, as an adult, she falls for him again, and this time, he falls for her.
After my summary got likes, another Instagrammer expressed interest in reading my posted webcomic drafts. Then, another person popped up expressing they disliked my premise and said I read too many Wattpad stories.
Rather than argue with them that if they disliked my synopsis, they don't have to read my story (and, of all places, we were ALL responding to a video of somebody showing their English teacher whom they considered attractive), I simply BLOCKED the random.
And on an aside note, even though I'm not from the generation that got into Wattpad (my thing was LiveJournal), how is reading fanfiction a *bad* thing? Especially as I'm a furry writer and artist, didn't my genre thrive from fanfiction? Did not most genre fictions began as fanfiction, borrowing and adapting before growing into their own?
