If I was desperate for kudos I would not be out here posting villain ships, minor character rarepairs, and other deeply unpopular ships.

I know how to write popular fic. I know how to farm kudos. That's not what I'm here for.

"Readers need to remember that authors don't know a reader liked their fic unless the reader tells them by leaving a kudos or a comment" does not mean "waahhh waahhh I need attention!"

It means "even if writers write purely for themselves, if you don't bother to interact with writers when you do enjoy their work, they might stop posting and just keep their work to themselves."

"If you enjoy a work you should kudos or comment" is not aimed at the people who aren't reading the fanfiction in question.

"If you enjoy a work you should kudos or comment" is not aimed at the people who did not enjoy the fanfiction in question.

"If you enjoy a work you should kudos or comment" is aimed at people who read a fanfiction, enjoyed it, and then didn't bother to even do the bare minimum to share their excitement about it with the work's creator, even though that excitement is literally the only thing they get in return for posting their work.

Fanfiction authors write because they enjoy writing. They post because they want to form a connection with the people who enjoyed their work.

This is not an attempt to scold anyone, I literally don't care if I get kudos or not. It's simply an attempt to remind people that fanfiction is a community, and fan authors can't read your mind.

Watching Brandon Sanderson's lectures on plot made me realize why I don't like the Haikyuu ending. Cause he talks about promises and payoff, and Haikyuu makes promises, in particular the promise that Fukurodani and Karasuno will play against each other, like SEVERAL times. Bokuto mentions that he wants to play against Karasuno in an official match more than once and it just sets up the expectation that it's gonna happen.

You can argue about "realism" and all that but Haikyuu isn't real life, it's a story. And not following up on that promise made it sooo unsatisfying for me. Idc if they had lost that game, but not doing it at all felt so lame.

And personally I just dislike timeskips but ehhh whatever
