ok now i’m kinda intrigued … you mean people catfishing people as a replacement to market testing or a writers group ?

that is creepy and metamodern. i’m going to have to think about that as not only a thing writers do but as a way people can influence writers by knowing they do that and fucking with the writers.

Lmao random but good
