Today I got a reply to a comment saying that the author had been so discouraged by the lack of response on the last two chapters that they had decided not to finish it, but that they had changed their mind and were now thinking of finishing. Just because I took 30 seconds to comment on each chapter.
It doesn’t matter if the fic is years old
It doesn’t matter if you don’t know what to say (“I loved this” is always music to an author’s ears, no matter how many times we hear it)
The author will not think you’re a creeper if you’re commenting on every single one of their fics
The author WILL cuddle your comments close to their hearts like the precious gems that they are, even if they’re only one word.
Comments and feedback matter. I’ve written in fandoms and for pairings that have very active, vocal fans who comment a lot, and I’ve written for ships that are not terribly popular and don’t get much reaction. The difference in my attitude is incredible.
Your feedback matters to authors. Click the kudos button, but please, take the time to leave a comment. Even if it’s just one word. If you like the writing and want to see more, let the author know
i am literally the most vain person ever like seriously today i stood and watched myself in the mirror drink some juice bc i wanted to see if i looked hot doing it like who am i
I know you probably won't answer this but I just wanted to say that you have helped me through some dark times, that I'm still in. Your videos have given me common ground to make friends, advice that I'm not sure I'll ever need, and good guide on what not to do and laughs when I'm feeling down. Youtube might not always been seen as a real or important job, but it really is. Thanks for doing it, and most of all, thanks for being you.
D: honestly, i have a lot of self-doubt and miscellaneous crippling self-esteem issues and i’m very cynical and tend to base everything around what the critics think. being told i have a positive influence on someone elses life means so much more to me than any kind of compliment. i’m not perfect and i don’t think i’m a big deal but seeing people say they’ve made friends through our videos or just smiled on a bad day is what keeps me going. i love you all and appreciate you all and now tumblr are saying it’s time to leave their office so this answer can’t be more articulate than this ramble as i type it.
Me: I look at gay porn on Tumblr based on my two idols bc I want them to be gay, there's a whole fandom about it, we write and read stories about their sex
