Can I just say that I agree with the fanfic comment anon? Comments, likes, recommending the work to others makes a world of a difference but having said that it’s also important to realize these authors are busy as well and do the writing for fun because they enjoy doing what they’re contributing and aren’t obligated to put out a new chapter daily/weekly. People often take writers and artists for granted. We provide content cause we love to do so, not cause we’re obligated to do so.

I 100% agree with you! Like I said before, if something you’re creating is getting 0 feedback it’s going to be hard to want to continue with it. Writers need feedback in order to feel motivated. And like you said, they are in no way obligated to put out one chapter a week and I see so many rude people asking fic writers for new chapters or telling them to hurry up. Just… N O.

Fic writers/fan artists don’t get paid, so pay them in feedback. We are consuming their works, give them something back. It’s the least we can do.

Well said darlings!
