Do you write for others or do you write for yourself?

People often use this as a gotcha when writers attempt to discuss anything involving the audience and their involvement, trying to shame writers for wanting an audience. This is pure assholery.

There is nothing wrong with writing to an audience. There is nothing wrong with wanting engagement and feedback.

Do you write for others or do you write for yourself, would be more appropriate to ask if your subject matter and content choice is for yourself or your audience.

Choose your content for yourself, I promise there are others who want to read it. But never feel bad for wanting engagement. Stories are best when shared.

Tony: Why are you looking at me?

Steve: Why are you looking at me?

Thor: Why isn’t anyone looking at me?

I don’t care how disgusting or fucked up a fic is. NO writer should EVER be harassed for writing taboo fics, especially when the warnings are properly tagged and you choose to go ahead and read them on your own free will.

you’re not morally superior for harassing real people for the sake of fictional characters and fictional stories. you’re just a bully.

"I sort fics by kudos and only kudos on stories with high kudos counts, why aren't there more stories with high kudos, I ran out of things to read." You're part of the problem.

"Authors artificially inflate comment counts by thanking people, I can't find anything with a real comment count to read." No they fucking are not, they're grateful for engagement.

"I can't read anything under 100k." That's the majority of fics you're ignoring, most novels aren't even that long.

"I don't have time to look for the incredibly rare diamond in the rough, so I won't read anything below a certain amount of kudos, comments, and hits." Those fics are popular because people gave them a chance and then snobs like you found them.

"I won't read anthing with a single typos." You made typos in that sentence, get off your high horse.

"One singular author didn't thank me for commenting, I'm never commenting on any fic again so I don't get burned." You're punishing people because someone didn't give you engagement they don't owe you that they might not have seen.

"This fic is three months old, it's so old, it doesn't matter if I comment or kudos, it's old." Fics do not have expiration dates, comment and kudos.

You're killing your fandoms with your snobbish behaviors.
