You are that prolific mediocre author. You're also that prolific shitty author. And that prolific awesome author. At the same time. It just depends on who's reading.

Haven't you ever bookmarked something, thinking it's the most amazing thing ever? Then you go back years later, and it's really not that good? It's still the same fic. Yet, the quality's changed without any alteration to the writing.

Someone's going to scroll thru fics and go "ugh!" every time your name appears. And someone else is going to squeal and show all their friends when they're done. You shouldn't worry about it too much. (I'm personally pleased at the thought my work drives someone up the wall. It's kinda like payback.)

You can't please everyone, but that's okay.

This is a good comment and you should feel good about it. +1

Yes! This is very true, and what a beautiful way of saying it. You can't ever please everyone nor should you spend your time trying to, so just do your best and hope it pleases someone. If it has, you've succeeded!

Agreed. You just can't please anyone, OP. But it's okay.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, now that's depressing.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Why? Everyone's different, everyone has different expectations and different outlooks in life. There is no way everyone can be pleased by the same fic.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
what you SAID was "you can't please anyone"

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 12:41 pm (UTC)(link)
you can't please everyone is not the same as you can't please anyone

logic 101, please try again later

DA

(Anonymous) 2012-10-12 03:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Seriously, look at the comment that was initially replied to. It actually says, "You just can't please anyone, OP". Maybe it was a mistype, but it was a depressing mistype.

Seriously, logic has nothing to do with it. Reading comprehension, however, does.

"You are that prolific mediocre author. You're also that prolific shitty author. And that prolific awesome author. At the same time. It just depends on who's reading."

This. I remember wank about me some years back, complete with how bad my writing was, and just feeling completely crushed -- but there also have always been people who read me and appreciate my stuff. So... that's a reason to keep posting it, regardless.

Some people really are just good, some people really are just bad. But the vast majority of everything is a matter of taste and interest.

Hee. I need to start thinking this way. Maybe I'd stop feeling like I need to apologize every time I post in a fandom community. :P

and I totally get the sentiment of getting some enjoyment from "the thought my work drives someone up the wall". especially in fandoms where fans seem to spend more time whining about the lack of fanworks than actually contributing to their production.

I know my work does. It's part of what inspires me to write my OTP and post the stories everywhere.
