is there any downside to being a fanfic writer, or troubles, or anything that just makes you annoyed in general? what are the cons of it!
Not being acknowledged for writing free content and not getting any feedback or any kind of reaction.
It makes you self-doubt yourself, and the most reason why many writers ‘retired’ from writing fan fiction when they are not getting treated appropriately or respected.
I get annoyed with people who think being a fan writer or blog writer is freaking easy. It’s really not.
People seeing us as machines when we are freaking human beings who have a life outside of the screen.
Believe it or not, behind the scenes, fanfic writers get treated like trash in the Tumblr community. I don’t know why.
This is why I express so much on leaving any feedback to your favorite creators because it does make a big difference. Its better than getting silence.
Getting feedback does make the writer feel a lot better of themselves as in not wasting their time in writing when no one is feeling anything at all.
Because I know multiple blogs and writers personally who are planning to leave the bnha fandom due to those reasons above.
