Tw: depressed kudos pep talk
Doing my best to be grateful with whatever small connections I’ve made with my Swizzy fic. Seeing a gentlebeard story get 10x the engagement from the same day is hard, but Swizzy is a rarepair treat that most people will absolutely avoid. I have to talk myself through this when I see my 10 kudos compared to 110.
Comparison is the Devil.
same for posting for other fandoms, it's wild seeing the difference in engagement because OFMD is largely really good at kudos'ing, so sometimes posting other stuff feels like a letdown even if the comparison is unfair to begin with
