when people make posts about what they want to see more of in fics, i'm kinda like 🧍♀️ ....what is the expectation, like what does that do....
other than other people agreeing and being like "YEAH i'd love to see that too!" like what else does it do......
#i make posts like this sometimes but the thing is#i'm talking to myself bc i make my own food and i don't count on anyone else to do that for me#like if i say “I WANT MORE ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIP SHADOWPEE” then i'm talking to ME bc i'm a writer and can do that#but when ppl make these posts....who are they talking to?? their followers who happen to be fic authors??#is the hope that some writer will see the post and be like “omg I'LL DO THAT” because...i don't think many writers would do that???#couple reasons why they wouldn't. No. 1 is that you could write something for someone#with everything they want#and they could STILL dislike it#this has happened to me multiple times. and now i just write for specific people i know well enough#for their birthday or whatever but to random people on the internet?#i ain't doing that. so i'm just wondering what those posts do in the long run#well they could ALSO be talking to themselves but when it's a person I KNOW isn't a fic writer i'm just like#HUH??? what does this achieve...#maybe it could lead to friendship based on tastes#but then why wouldn't you make a post like “I LOVE THIS TROPE” and then other people would still agree with you
