I've also been in fandom forever and the one thing that has never been predictable has been audience reception. A fic I think is kinda dumb but I posted to get my take on the ship out there is the highest-rated and people are still finding it 15 years later to say they re-read it every so often and still love it. The fic I labored to get right down to historical details? Meh, shrug. There's no magic formula, unless it's "write a juggernaut pair in a juggernaut fandom and post it on exactly the right date and time when thirsty shippers are looking for updates."

Engagement is malleable, and I feel a smidge of pity for writers who still haven't realized it. Maybe they were in said juggernaut sweet spot for so long, they don't know how it is when you're not writing Stucky during an MCU release cycle.

Oh, I feel this. The fic of mine that got the largest reception is a stupid fic that was based around an inside joke my friends in college and I had about the characters. It was literally just a "what if I actually wrote a fic about this whole stupid premise we invented" and for some reason people thought it was funny? I have no idea. I mean, I'm glad they like it, but it is definitely not one of my better works because I wasn't taking it seriously!
