Same here. I write for myself, because I get ideas that I need to put into story form. I post them online because I enjoy sharing my stories, but only if people are going to appreciate them. I tend to update fics that get reviews faster than I do fics that don't. I love getting feedback, and the more feedback I get the more motivated I am to write (or at least publish).

I'm less likely to update a fic that receives fewer, if any, reviews, even if I'm still writing it. What's the point if no one's going to appreciate it? If a reader can't be bothered to leave a comment I can't be bothered to go through the effort of editing it, formatting it, and publishing it. QUID PRO QUO. You clicking a "kudos" button is simply not worth the hours I put into writing a chapter, or the hours I spent researching for it, etc.

I don't feel bad about it, either, especially after reading some of the above comments.

I don't owe anyone a thing. You don't owe me anything, either. But in the end, I'm not the one losing out, am I?
