Anon, you should!

A friend of Toko’s who is sadly no longer with us got us to finally engage with the community last year, and it has been a great experience for all of us.

The self ship community, especially the proship selfship community is just a really fun space where we have found that people actually interact and engage with one another together in a shared space in a way that I pretty much thought had died out on livejoural or early Tumblr.

It makes it pretty easy to ignore the few jerks and assholes when there’s so much love around.

I wanna see your drabbles, anon!

Took me still some more time to finally get the courage but we finally did it. We got a blog and going to try being a loud shipper and talk with others.

Do you happen to have any tips for a beginner in the community of selfshipping?

Slowly working on trying to set up some lists of dates and get tags figured out but for now yo

/we were the anon

Hey hey! So glad you could join us! 😀

Some beginner tips:

• Don’t be afraid to gush. Cringe is dead and we are all free
• The more you interact with people off anon, the more they will interact with you.
• People love responses to their self ship posting, and if you respond to people you likes self ship posts its more likely they’ll respond to yours
• ask games are great for prompts and a great excuse to talk about your F/Os
• practice reblog karma– if you reblog an ask game from someone, send them an ask from the list!
• tag tag tag!
• write F/O imagines. even if you don’t think your ideas are relatable, you will be surprised!
• don’t be offended if someone does end up blocking you due to a shared F/O. Not everyone likes to share and that’s okay.
• you can talk about your F/Os however you want. Some people talk about their F/Os with a low degree of separation, some keep blorbo at arms length.
