( No Title )
You don’t have to apologize, or perform authorial disgust, for dark, violent, sexual, cruel or problematic topics in the fiction you create.
Fiction does not exist to teach an audience a moral lesson. You as an author are not required to be your audience’s moral teacher.
You can have bad things happen– you can have a protagonist who is bad– without having to explain to your audience that they are bad.
#i have never and will never do disclaimers or “perform authorial disgust”#any reader who requires that is not my audience
