Okay so I’ve just reached over a 1000 hits and around 90 kudos on AO3 for Binding us Together and ....Wow. Oh wow. I never thought I would get so many hits so soon and finding out that I’ve managed to reach this level despite being a fledgling of a writer makes me unspeakably happy. I’m yelling in disbelief and clutching at my hair and the number doesn’t reduce which makes this feeling within me swell bigger and brighter with every passing second.
I know that I have so much more to achieve. I’m nowhere near the level of brilliance the writers I have come across in multiple fandoms are at, let alone writers of epic novels. Being a writer is certainly not my primary profession of choice either, for I know I don’t have the creativity to get there. I mainly write to satisfy the creative urges I get from time to time, so finding out that there are people who actually enjoy reading my fic enough to leave a kudos gives me a confidence boost I never thought I needed. It gives me a reason to write other than to indulge in my fantasies, and writing in part for other people is something I never thought was possible for me to reach in a short span of time.
I’m just really really happy about people liking my stuff, and all I can hope is that I don’t disappoint myself and them in my future pieces. I couldn’t contain myself when I saw the numbers on AO3 and hence this post. Slowly but surely I’ll improve with my writing and this gives me the confidence that I will reach there someday. They may not be able to see this, but I’m so thankful for whoever read and liked my writing ^.^
