#self pity?

When you get to the part of fic you're really proud of/ excited for and no one comments

Could I get added to your tag list for everything?

Hi, sure I can tag you.

But, and sorry if this comes off wrong...

I'm not really writing much anymore since I finished my last series.

And honestly? I'm curious why you want to be added even if I did find some inspiration (which isn't looking great, gotta be honest) to write something new.

I saw you like one masterlist of a series of mine and nothing else I've written. No actual chapters. No comments. No reblogs. No keyboard smashes. No gif replies. Nothing.

It's disheartening. And I don't mean to be rude or flippant. I'm generally anything but.

But I, like most writers and creators on Tumblr, thrive on interaction. Hearts are nice (hopefully more than one) but they don't really tell me what I want to know. Did you love the characters? The setting? The situation? The dialog? Did you see an "easter egg" that you want to scream into the void with me about?

It's hard connecting on here. I know. But the only way to connect is to, well, connect. Reach out. Say something.

Again. I'm happy to add people to a tag list. But I hope you know it takes work to create a story (I think you do; I think I see you trying and I wish you all the best, I really do) and then tag everyone that said they wanted to read it and hope for some interaction from those folks. It doesn't always pay off.

And so I just wonder, what is it about one series masterlist that makes you want a tag?

Again, sorry if this comes off wrong. But I'm already struggling with a lack of inspiration and this request just caught me on an off day I guess.

I think this adequately conveys my general Tumblr experience over the last 6 years.

My new year’s resolution for @andrewsillustrating is to draw whatever I want to draw, make the art that I want to make, and not give a damn about notes. When you’re shouting into the void, you gotta shout for yourself, not to be heard.

Quick reminder that if you ever go like ‘but my problem is worse than yours’ you are basically competing to see which one of us has it worse and you are not making either party of the discussion happy, in fact you are making me miserable because not only you are stating that you have it worse than me (which is a lot) but also you are saying that my problem is worthless compared to yours

If I am not trash, why do I get abandoned like trash? I don't want pity. It's a legit question.

No that's okay mum. It's not like today was a really important and big day for me, and maybe even a casual question about how it went would have been nice. 

No, why would you care or ask, even though you knew how worried and stressed out I was about it. 

Far better to just moan because I came in to say hello to you when I got home because I was talking over the tv. Because godforbid you press the damn pause button and acknowledged me. Whatever.
