Do you get upset when a fanfic of yours doesn’t get to a particular number of kudos or are you fine with any amount of feedback? Does interaction with your stories affect your writing mood?
More kudos and especially more comments will always spur me on to write faster.
“In Justice We Trust” has been getting 7 comments per chapter, so I’ve been putting out a chapter per day.
But no amount of lack of reaction will stop me from writing something that I want to write.
pictured above: the stats for two different works I’ve posted on AO3. Both are complete. One has 230k words and 2 kudos, the other has 116k words and 31 kudos.
If anyone’s curious the fics in question are
a furry alternate history mystery story based loosely on Pathologic
an OC heavy re-imagining of X-Men Evolution with Toad dating a goth trans girl.
“no one’s ever going to read those, they’re so impossibly niche!”
Yeah, we knew that when we wrote them. They were for us.
