Those who read my work please know—You are welcome to show your love for my work in anyway that is comfortable for you. I appreciate every like, every kudos (Altho i suck on AO3), every read, every review, every bit of the time you give to me.
You made me. You’ve brought me so much love, so much enjoyment—you’ve given me so much as a writer even when I’ve been to busy to give you content when I grew depressed from a break up and losing my job. You still even now have been so kind and giving to me.
Even now I see every like, every follow, every review, every increase in reading numbers, and every goddamn ask. I see you checking on me during this time when mental health is so important. I see you reaching out to me during quarantine hoping I’m well.
You. Made. Me.
You are the one in power in this consumer vs content creator discourse. Do not let any of these people tell you different. You matter. Your feelings matter. You are so important.
So please please please I cannot stress this enough please know I will never ask for anything from you because you have been so kind—so so kind—to me as a content creator. You’ve given me so much. I will always appreciate anything you give to me.
You don’t have to review. You don’t have to like. You don’t have to kudos. You don’t have to do anything. I see you reading from the statistics. I see what time you’ve been so generous to give to me.
And I cannot thank you enough for all of it.
Thank you so much.
