I guess it's since there's always that sort of overhanging cloud that's can be like, "Oh... you're not a published writer yet; how can you compare yourself to professionals?," together with the whole all-fanfic-is-guilty-pleasure-trash mindset that both fandom and non-fandom people can have sometimes.

Like it shouldn't be a secret and I highly doubt there are any authors out there who don't want to emotionally impact their readers, but - in certain fandoms and certain circles - I could definitely see someone saying "Oh, I want my books to have the same emotional impact that [specific example] did" and someone responding along the lines of "what are you talking about; you could never hope to be that good/hahahaha you honestly think that you're on their level? get over yourself!"

Stupid, yes. But I could see it happening.

chiming in with agreement

also, isn't it kind of sadistic to want to write something that makes people upset?
