We write for ourselves, but we post for others.
(this came out of a conversation in the comments on a previous post about an author threatening to stop updating a fic because of lack of engagement)
So there’s this idea that fic writers should write for themselves and not care too much about stats or engagement,
and i totally get the sentiment behind that. if writing becomes entirely about stats and external validation, something important does get lost - creative freedom and joy, conviction in your own writing
but i also think:
“i write for myself, but i post for others.”
because posting fic is not only self-expression. it’s social. ao3 is called an archive, but emotionally it often functions as a community space.
people post for connection, for participation, for others to bear witness to their pain and trauma and grief,
and i don’t think most people are asking to be admired so much as acknowledged. there’s something deeply human about wanting another person to encounter something that mattered to you and go:
“ok, yeah, I see what you were trying to say. I see you.”
especially because fanfic is often people processing very real feelings through fictional characters at a safe distance, one step removed,
and then uploading that deeply personal thing into a shared archive and hoping somebody else might connect with it.
And i think that’s why it hurts so much when you summon up the courage and post a fic into the void and you get nothing back,
and then it’s like,
does anyone see me? does anyone even care?
I think most of us want to be seen. We want to connect with the people who read our stuff and have them say yeah, I’ve experienced or thought that too. I felt that emotion with you. It’s why we read. We want to connect. Nothing wrong with that. Reviews tell us we connected enough to someone that they wanted to say so. No reviews or readers can sting because it means people aren’t seeing us. Because what we write, even if it’s about Those Characters and Their Problems, is often about what’s on our mind and heart. Or about what we need and aren’t getting. Our writing is often revealing and it can sting when there’s no validation in the form of someone nodding, tipping their hat, and saying “I see you.”
Thank you for your partecipation.

God sometimes I'm writing smut and I'll like, delete a sentence because I'm like, no, I can't write that. It's too indulgent. And then it's like. Girl, what the fuck are you even going to the candy store for if you're just going to buy raisins. Get real.
"what the fuck are you even going to the candy store for if you're just going to buy raisins" is honestly the thing I needed to hear today
after spending multiple days fruitlessly googling "perfume that looks like the movie saw" i finally found it
