Hi anon!! · 4d

I understand imposter syndrome and everything but babe stop CARING about if your fics are “being talked about” or not!!! We all exist in a sea of fanfiction and fanfic writers we’re hardly talked about except for in a vague general sense!! Just write what makes you happy and stop CARING!! But like respectfully

Yeah I get that. I didn’t mean it in a popularity way. It just makes me sad when I share ideas amongst my friends and I feel like I don’t get the same amount of excitement about them. Or they will bring up each other’s fics in convo but never mine. It’s a little disheartening seeing everyone’s 2024 fave fics and it’s never mine. I don’t want to be like the most popular or anything like that. I just don’t want to feel like I’m talking arrogantly about my fics when no one actually cares. Does that make sense? I don’t have to be the most liked or the most commented I just want to feel like people actually care and I’m not just talking into space for nothing. Because I write fics for myself but that does not mean I have to post them. Thank you though!!!! You’re sweet
