I wouldn't mind not getting comments and kudos so much if I could just somehow KNOW that people are reading and enjoying, but yeah, no way to know that unless readers speak up (hit counters are worthless to me). I try to remind myself that getting no comments is better than getting nasty ones. And I feel fortunate that I DO write for myself first and foremost. It's my escape, and all the hours of work I pour into each chapter is worth it, even if some don't get any comments.

But it's pretty dang disheartening when you're especially proud of something, and you feel SURE people will love this or that about it, and then... nothing. It's human to crave praise.

I feel the same way. I wrote a fic last month that I was really proud of and I thought people would enjoy it because it featured a character that the fandom felt could’ve played a bigger part in the show, but it only got a few kudos and no comments. I like how I wrote it and I had fun with it, but man was it disappointing to see it didn’t get the reaction I’d hoped for.
