Write it, but get over yourself and the thought that people wouldn't like your fic because your tastes are so much smarter and better than the rest of fandom's.

This.

It's a good idea if OP decides to share their work with the fandom. They'll probably find others who think like them, and who knows? Maybe others will write similar fics.

But they'd better lose the "my work is automatically so much more intelligent than what the masses like" attitude. That's an instant deal breaker for me, no matter how good the work is. (Also, don't complain of how you're being ignored if your fic is not widely recognized by fandom. If you're fulfilling a niche market, don't expect it to be the most popular fic in fandom).

Depends on the fandom's size and also its orthodoxy. I've seen brilliantly-written rarepair fics in my fandom and they post to the music of crickets... maybe one or two comments if they're very lucky. The juggernaut pairing tends to squeeze everything else out.

So I take it you've never been in a fandom where 99% of the fic is written by sugar high teenagers (or adults who act and write like sugar high teenagers)? I have.

I'm talking "My Immortal" levels of hideousness here.

I don't think it's being stuck up if an author legitimately feels they can write better quality fic than what they're finding in a fandom.

Though I may be biased, since I'm currently "re-writing" a fanfic for my own personal enjoyment because the ideas and plot had so much potential, yet even the original author goes on about how bad it is, and they have publicly stated they don't care. *twitch*
