this is very important and i will not stress this enough omfg
a lot of writers here are so prone to burnout and stop writing because of it. literally seen it happen to so many other writers.
luckily for me, even if followers don’t comment on a fic or reblog with some funny thoughts i at least have fellow writers and authors on here to yap about and share my thoughts with.
and it’s not on a basis of seeking attention, or wanting more notes/interactions/clicks for popularity. no. writers just want to make other people feel entertained and satisfied with their fics.
we want to know our audience isn’t dead cause wtf does a like tell you???
“oh it was okay so i’ll give it a like” “it was decent i guess” “lowkey kinda ass but it’s mark so i’ll give it a pity like” “it’s so good it deserves a like”
and don’t get me started on fics without smut vs fics with smut…
anyways if you’re reading this, please give your favorite creator some love, maybe send them an ask, ask them a random question about themself, or comment something you really like about one of their fics.
