#yes i'm a pretentious asshole AND a picky reader#and yes of course i'd be incredibly happy if my book became popular or just got published at all. tiktok or not#but. ahehhddh idk should i take it as an insult?#what my brother meant was that it has the potential to sell well (especially among a younger female audience)#but i have a bad relationship with booktok in general. everytime i tried to read a hyped on tiktok novel#it went from kinda mid to downright bad#tbc my book is not ya. i didn't even write it as ya at all. at least not consciously (the protagonists *are* young adults)#and it's a historical romance but... it goes into very sensitive problematic territory#and i'm not comfortable with the idea of publishing it. like at all#if any of my followers is curious about my writing tho don't worry because i'm also writing a batb retelling#and i have another idea for a gothic ghost story going through my head#first i have to actually finish them (... or *start* writing them in the first place lol)#val speaks#writing life#txt
