I apologize for the lack of updates here. I have to use another browser than my usual due to this website mysteriously creating error messages any time I want to update if I try through my usual browser. I may move to a new host because the "help" here has basically said they can't recreate the problem in order to fix it. Go figure. I have not abandoned this website, but the technical issues make updates extremely difficult. If I move, I'll make sure the new location is visible on the front page.
That said, I recently wrote a piece of Doctor Who fanfiction. Yes, I love that show in all its scifi hilarity and seriousness. This story carries a very heavy antibullying theme with a little surprise in it. :)
TITLE: It Gets Better
AUTHOR: Me
FANDOM: Doctor Who
SUMMARY: The 11th Doctor stops a bullied teen from committing suicide.
GENRE: Adventure/Hurt-comfort
RATING: T
NOTES: This fic is a self insert because I'm not going to pretend it isn't, and it's a semi-autobiographical account of surviving bullying. The incidents I describe did actually happen to me(sans the Doctor, of course!). Names, occasional times of day and places are changed to preserve privacy, and for clarity's sake I gave made-up names to people whose names I forgot.
I've long since forgiven the people who did these things, but it took me almost two decades to reach that point.
This fic is dedicated to anyone who has been or is being bullied right now. I'm thirty three years old, and I almost committed suicide because of severe bullying back in the 1990's. "Bullycide" is not a new thing, but it is worse because of the internet. And if people are going to use the internet to hurt, then I'm going to use it to heal!
I hope this story reaches out to anyone thinking of suicide or self harm. I've been there, and I want you to realize you're not alone. It gets better, so hold on. You're going to make it through this. I care about you because YOU MATTER!
