kkkkkk is it ok if i rant for a lil bit? /gen if not just delete this! ( and if i managed to accidentally send this off anon, please just ignore it skjfslj )

anyhow i've been on genshinblr for a little while, bout six months now, and one thing i've noticed a lot is that the boys are so much more popular than the girls ; - ; as a sapphic person this makes me really sad, i'm just looking for some fluffy amber x reader content but i have to wade through a thousand kaeya angst things first /lh

i work really hard on my fics but they don't get a lot of interaction and it's honestly kinda demoralizing tbh, especially when i see zhongli / diluc / childe fics getting hundreds, even thousands, of notes (no hate at all to people who write those characters ofc!!! they're super talented) while my own stuff - and other female chara writers - barely gets any recognition at all, yknow?

it's just whatever, ik most fic writers are female & straight / attracted to men, but it still makes me feel kinda bad, esp since you're a really great writer too ( that's why i wanted to send you in particular a message ) and you deserve a lot of notes, too! i just wish there were more sapphic consumers / creators, yknow?

any which way this is getting really long so if you wanna just delete it w/o answering you can do that :] have a great day , if you're pulling for itto i hope the wish archons bless you! <3

ahh ofc i don't mind the ranting at all and ty for asking for permission first /gen :)

honestly i share your sentiments in regards to content about the girls not receiving as much recognition :'D i've only been on genshinblr for about 5 months now and it does get demoralizing at times. tbh, i almost half considered pausing my writing or even attempting to write for the guys in order for my works to gain more recognition so more people could find my girl content.

however, i never ended up doing any of that mainly bc i wanted to make sure that my blog reflected who i am and that my writing is genuine. ahh one day there will be more sapphic consumers and creators :'))) but for now, we just have to do our best to continue providing the content we want because no one else will.

ty for being comfortable enough to rant to me especially about smth like this bc i relate to it a lot :'DD while i do wish my works received more notes, a solid number of them have gotten 100+ and even 300+ notes and im incredibly grateful for that. even though sapphic content is harder to come by on genshinblr, im still vv glad that some of my content can be recognized and that i am able to continue growing as a writer :)

i wish you all the best, anon!! gl with your writing and if you ever want to promote your content for the girls, you can always send in your fics for my fic rec fridays *wink wink* /lh :D

#saved file; anon #ask.txt #honestly this rant really sums up the whole reason why im on genshinblr and why i write purely for the girls #as well i never got to state this but my aim is to create content for sapphic readers #since my readers are either fem or gender neutral #i will probably never write for male readers or write for male characters #aNyways #fic rec fridays!! great way to promote yourself or other writers who write for the genshin girls!!#also it's so hard to find writers that write solely for the girls :'))))#bc a majority of the time whenever i find someone who writes for the girls #a majority of their fics are for the guys and there's like 3 girl fics 😭😭#/lh /nm #aaahhh sadge :'))#the struggles of being a sapphic creator and consumer
