VonNeumann:
Speaking for myself, I really appreciate the well-written Bohemian Rhapsodies that scratch just the right itch. It has only recently occurred to me to actually, you know, *compliment* or pay for work that I’ve truly enjoyed.
It’s a conundrum— it’s hard to keep going as a creator with no feedback, doubly so when people have hang ups about their fetish / sexual preferences that work against reaching out!
I guess what I’m saying is that I’ll try to make a more active effort to say “hey, I like this, thank you for making it!”
Was JUST talking about this in another thread on here, it's really nice to get that feedback to know what is working and what isn't. It's such a motivator to get that instead of looking at views and fretting over something different from part x meant y fewer views than z part, when it's all just an algorithm playing a part that you cannot control. I know if I got those things, it would fire me up to do that, and the work I've done for drawn OC's and seeing their creator enjoy the fiction I make for them makes it such a wonderful experience to help make a wider net that the OC helps cast, ya know?
