About The Anons

About The Anons:

I got a lot of kind messages and posts from very nice people who were a bit upset at the crappy things anons routinely send me here on Tumblr. A bunch of them asked me how I handle it.

So, I’ll tell you the truth. It’s rough, it’s really rough.

Honestly, sometimes they upset me so much I can…

I’m waiting to hear about the professional writer who quits the business because of abusive anons. Because I’ll be able to use my superpowers to fly around and get all the world leaders to sign a peace accord, get paid a reasonable wage for doing food service work, not worry about my wife being attacked when she’s out late, and a whole other mess of improbable things.

My point was not how wonderful I am, it was how small the anon thing is when I have many, many blessings to be grateful for. And I admit, I wad mostly being silly.

A LOT of people left the industry after not being able to take the abuse. A lot, a lot of women in particular. A lot of POC and lgbt creators do leave quickly, too, but I don’t know their reasoning.

I am sorry to hear things are difficult…believe me, I have been poor most of my life. It is only very recently that is not the case.

I wish for health, safety and happiness for you both, sincerely.
