I recently started writing for a small, dead fandom.

Most older fic has more hits/kudos than all of my new fic combined. This makes sense and doesn't bother me at all.

The secret?

I'm terrified that someone will start writing again, that their fic will get the same attention as before, and that the self-consciousness will make me stop wanting to write.

It's fine getting no attention when you're all alone, but what happens when you're not?

just sort by kudos in any large fandom and see the garbage at the top. I use the word garbage respecfully.

I mean, why are you writing right now? It isn't for the glory or the attention, right? Your love shouldn't change just because someone went viral, or brought their posse along with them.
I do get the fear, but I think it might be important to focus on the now. Don't let your anxiety get the best of you! (lol, I'm typing this for me as much as I am you, don't worry. anxiety sucks!)
