Re: Secrets You Can't Be Bothered to Make

I'm kinda freaking out because I made art for a fic anonymously some time ago. I attached it to a review, and they asked if they could link it in the newest chapter of the fic, which of course I said yes.
Thing is, I don't know the etiquette on what to do now. If someone complements it, do I say anything? Do I just ignore it? Or is that rude?
I'm a fan of the author and their works. I don't want it to seem like I'm shoving myself into their work just because they were nice enough to include it, and I'm just plain freaking out...


S!B: I have seriously bad anxiety, (if it wasn't already obvious), and I've jumped-ship on reading things I've genuinely enjoyed for a lot less. I'm so afraid this will be another one of those things.
I've done this once before, (almost as an apology for my embarrassing reaction for them recognizing comments) where they didn't really respond. I almost hoped for that same reaction.

(I'm also fretting over posting this just in case they might see, and I don't even know what... Someone make me feel better basically...)

If you made the art anonymously, and they posted it as anonymous art gifted to them, just bask (anonymously) in the compliments to your art. You don't have to say a thing, or you could say something Anon, it's up to you.

But nobody knows 'you' did it, and therefore, you don't need to do anything but enjoy the fact that the author liked your art well enough to post it with their fic.

And congratulations! I love love love if someone likes my fic enough to make art, it's an amazing compliment and so flattering. You most likely made their day. :D

Thank you so much!! I really needed to hear that!
My first instinct was to say nothing, so unless someone asks something specific about the art in particular, I'll stay quiet!
They did seem pretty excited about the image though, so I really should be grateful for that. Until the next chapter, I'll just just have to wait and see what happens.

(honestly I'm grateful enough that if you want anything drawn for you, just let me know!)

You're welcome! And it's really true. :D

HA, are you kidding? I'll take anything! I dunno what your style is or if you like to do 'scenes' or covers or portraits, so just - look over my fic and if something grabs you, go for it.

If nothing really floats your boat, that's fine, too; can't force the muse. :D

Sounds good! I'll read through your things and reply like I did them! Might take me a few days though! I draw mostly portraits.

Here's a sketch of Spike, since I know you like him! I'm trying to learn how to shade so I figured I might draw something special. (and damnnn that hair is impossible)

I was thinking of drawing something for '47.25435° N, 101.73998° W' so keep an eye out!

Oooh, wow, that's amazing! I love that!
Yes, his hair *is* difficult, but it looks really good! :D

Art for that fic would be awesome, too.
I'll be posting again soon, i'll have this up at my page. :D
Thank you thank you! Just awesome.
