DNI: MINORS, PRO-SHIPPERS, TERFS

Hiya, welcome to my page!
I write stories about tickling, hence Both Ends Of The Quill. Get it? Because one end tickles and the other writes? Get iiiiiit? ;3

I think my name speaks for itself. They say laughter is the best medicine, so why not bring that joy to all of Equestria? Expect lots of laughing ponies and fluffy plots and whatnot.

The reason I took up writing my own tickle fics is because I hope to fill a void that I have observed for years.
Ever since I discovered my love for tickling early on in life, both giving and receiving it, I fantasied about making my favourite characters laugh, and having it returned back to me. What I found, however, is that 90% of tickling content glorifies abuse, manipulation, torture, general non-consent, and other things that I will never stand by. Being mere fiction does not absolve it of critique in my eyes, and reads like a desperate excuse. It traumatized me at a young age, and for years I felt like I was the only one who wanted to create and consume tickling content that was consensual, where the lees were actually happy. It's isolating, to say the very least. I felt alone amongst people that were supposedly into tickling because they enjoyed showing love through physical touch and the resulting laughter.
As an adult now, I've done my best to distance myself from people who create and consume that kind of content. Instead, I want my stories to be a safe space for those like myself, who want our perhaps overly fantastical ticklish shenanigans, but are opposed to unhealthy portrayals of such things.
I want to make it abundantly clear that I do not support the creation or consumption of fiction that glorifies sadism and lack of/dubious consent. This, of course, includes tickle torture stories. If it glorifies suffering, I want nothing to do with it.

With that said, I genuinely hope you enjoy your time here! If you like what I write, do check out my "Ticklish Favourites" folder. It contains work similar to mine that I think deserves attention.

Thank you to whoever has read this far! Have a brohoof, my friend. /)
