so i recently saw a post going around about “why artists reblog their work,” this applying to all genres of art- drawing, writing, etc.
and i realized i never tend to reblog my stories. it’s a thought i have occasionally, but i always shrugged it off until now. it just... wasn’t a thing i did. i never felt it necessary. i kind of felt like it would be me pandering or looking for more attention. i’m not saying that’s what it is, mind you! it’s just how my brain works.
i’m always highly self-conscious about my innate need for attention. (a tru irony when you take into account how socially awkward and easily uncomfortable i get.) i revel in praise and compliments and acknowledgment of my accomplishments, and then i feel horrible for it. all my life i’ve kinda had this idea about “me getting everything” thrown back in my face? i’m certain it’s played a significant role in my guilt complex.
i digress. i wasn’t trying to delve into my own problems. it’s more like... well, i don’t know. what do you guys think? this blog’s shot up in popularity recently due to my writing for the egos, and it’s so commonplace for other popular blogs to reblog their works.....
note: i literally have never reblogged anything i’ve made. jokes, shitposts, art or writing. it just didn’t occur to me, or if it did, i always felt... awkward about it.
i don’t know. should i start? would it make it easier for you guys? (i was hoping my new tags and stories pages on the blog would help, but...)
