liquidtears Day 15
Talk about why you participated in Snowflake &/or what you got out of it. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
I think my girlfriend participated in it last year and this year I was like huh, I'd love to give it a go , and therefore I did it.
Some entries were later than the day they came out, but hey, I persevered and stuck with it until the end.
I think the main reason was to make more friends, because I am super-insecure as a writer and mostly it's just my girlfriend and a good friend of mine commenting on my fics, which sometimes make me think 'is that all I can? Get 2 comments and that's it?
I'm also on AO3 but there it is mostly getting Kudos (mostly Guests)
I had a fic called Shower Buddies in the 13 Reasons Why Fandom which got a really bad review, and a lot of times I'm thinking when I see a Kudo on a fic what were the good parts? were there bad parts? did that person see room for improvement?
I've recently friended an amazing Supernatural Fan on LJ and so I'm curious what they thought of the fics I wrote for that fandom and some RPF ones, but I've yet to get a comment on those which continue to make me insecure if I should continue writing in general.
I'm also thankful for the 3 Sentence Ficathon which made me get out of my shell more and write in other fandom than I always do.
*Insert Porky Pig Voice: Bbbbbbbbbb That's All Folks!*
Until Next Year!
(Now in NO WAY am I turning the lights out on DW only to continue on LJ again.)

Date: 2019-01-18 01:32 pm (UTC)A lot of new followers don't go back and check older entries to look at fic, so maybe you can do a post talking about your favourite fics in the SPN fandom, a sort of round-up/self-rec and ask for feedback? :)
Also that was rude of someone to leave you a really bad review :/
I must go and check the 3 sentence fic one more time before I decide I'm done for the year and get to posting my fills here and at AO3, thanks for reminding me :)
