Tag: fanfic writer woes

The “Infinity War” release date has been moved up, so now I have even less time to finish my speculative fic about what went on with Loki and Thanos before and during “The Avengers.”

Oh, who am I kidding? I’m probably not going to finish it.

please someone tell me I’m not the only one who ignores all my actual duties to obsessively check whether there are new comments on my fanfics and re-read old ones if there aren’t.

I may or may not have kept some favourites in my inbox…

I only check once a day, because otherwise I’d lose my mind. But I do save them all to read offline when I’m feeling blue or stuck or having some kind of bad day. Because it’s nice to be reminded that I can write something that made someone laugh, or cry, or get so mad that they yelled at their screen. We all need that validation. And some days, I need it a lot.

Hell, I obsessively check for new kudos. I need whatever meager source of external validation I can get.
