#but well. since its inevitable. the egomaniac and sadist in me wants everyone who hates me to fail and die.

i’ve never seen anything negative about your fic, why do you think some people hate it/dislike it? :(
no one's publicly talked shit dw, i just have friends in all sorts of places and i basically am aware that some people refuse to read sadf or are simply upset that sadf is as popular as it is - and i tend to be good at sensing when people don't like me. usually tho if i used to be friends w someone that started to dislike me i tend to want to disprove that as much as i can... but i can tell. i've got good gut feelings and well sometimes those gut feelings receive concrete proof. most of it is misplaced jealousy and different tastes and preferences usually. not too deep. like there are people who resent heatwaves and think it doesn't deserve to be as popular as it is and people who resent mangobaii and thinks it doesn't deserve clout (ive seen people say it spits in the face of writers who 'actually work hard on their fic' or something crazy like that)
so like OBVIOUSLY some people will hate sadf. be it blindly or for reasons they perceive to be reasonable. obviously sadf is not anywhere near what heatwaves was or what happened with mangobaii. i don't think i am like MASSIVELY revolutionary or that im the best ever or anything but i do think i tend to be different enough that it stands out but can also rub some people the wrong way. and well... since im a writer it doesn't shock me that some writers are jealous because i would also be if i were them. but im me! so thank god i guess. and i mean. sadf was a calculated effort of mine. it was a LOT of luck but also hard work and strategy. a lot of the success sadf has received was also due to you guys :) so i'm very very grateful for that. but yeah. i started writing sadf in late september and didn't start publishing till january this year. i read and reread what i've written over and over and i've rewritten and edited every scene to some degree. i put a lot of passion into it! and i like that it has a very absurd name. its the whole point. and some people will appreciate that and my idiosyncrasies and my writing style and my sense of humor - and some won't. so... it is what it is. i just think that the people who don't like sadf either didn't give it a chance or what they like differs a LOT from me -> meaning that if they are a writer id probably think their work sucks too. so. live and let live i suppose!
