got in the mood to reread one of my old fics + comments and i just ugh i was so lucky to be able to make that and get the kind of engagement that i did. looking back its like yeah i was goin thru it at the time (and it only. got worse lol) but having worked through a lot of that crap it's like oh wow this is what i want to do isn't it??? make something that might touch people and be able to share it and just. you know. vibe in mutual appreciation. been very stuck w my writing for a while but if i could do anything with it it'd be to replicate that feeling in some way... yeah...

#like obv the first step is to actually write something.#then getting it out there whether that's trad pub or self publishing which. isnt necessarily as prestigious but #for a certain kind of story you just don't wanna worry about the market and so forth #building any kind of audience is the hardest part bc im not a Natural Poster but yk? might as well try #but yeah just. i really miss that. im having thoughts about how neat fandom is tbh #even when it's just for like. porn™. im completely serious lots of very meaningful exchanges happen over that stuff #and why shouldn't they!!#so yeah hmmm. i work at a glacial pace and plots have eluded me for decades but really. its what i wanna do.#even as a quote unquote Amateur. like yeah i wanna publish but ! thats really only a means to an end.#it is about the LOVE AND CONNECTION
