GahHh my heart! 🥹 I just finished reading the backstory of your account.

I too have had online friends that disappear, and got busy with life. I can totally relate to that. It’s sad to see their accounts get seemingly abandoned. I hope they are doing well too.

Furthermore, I can tell you were a wonderful friend to them! It warmed my heart to see how much you care about them. 🤧 gah! I need to find myself friends like you.

I also read fics on every platform possible XD. I started out on wattpad in 2017, and I’ve been reading fics for 6 years now. I actually had written fics on wattpad and tumblr myself. Not for LMK though- for another fandom I’m in. I mostly spend my time drawing and reading, but perhaps I’ll get back into writing again. Who knows 👀.

Ps: You have to try peaches! The monkey man has good taste- Trust the monkey! Well, then again, I grew up canning peaches with my late mother, so perhaps I’m biased 😅. Also, ‘Mooncakes’ as a ship name is adorable, especially for Macaque.

Yeah real life do be like that sometimes,, all we can do is just manifest that everything good happens to them, because thats what they deserve!!

And thank u!! And erm,, we can be friends,, if u want,, looks at u intently

also ayo 6 years?? I forgot how long I've been reading fics, but I think it's somewhere around your count as well. OUGH THAT MAKES ME FEEL A BIT OLD... Oh well. And eyy!! Another (potential) writing buddy!! If you ever want someone to hear abt a premise/concept for a story you got in mind, I'm always free to listen!!

Alr gonna trust the monkey on this one..... Only bcs peaches look SO scrumptious like, zamn- even if I dont end up liking it, itd look so aesthetic that I wont even be mad. Ur mom's pretty based for doing that w u btw, peaches look cool as hell.

AND YEAH I WAS SO PROUD OF THAT NAME WHEN I CAME UP WITH IT HAHSCHF it was like i was struck with knowledge from the gods above, and i used it to create a Macaque x Y/n ship name for my friends fic. The knowledge was put to good use, imo.

hey!! could you tell me how you did to make your fics gain more readers? i just made a new tumblr and i want to start posting my oneshots too but i need to grow my acc first and i don't know how i love your writing 💜

oh hi thank you so much for loving my writing, that's so sweet and encouraging! ❣️ so a lottt of finding an audience on here depends on luck, especially with tumblr being so glitchy with tagging lately, but there are a few things you can do to try and find more readers - one is to use hashtags, even though the tagging system is glitchy/imperfect it can help ur work get to new people who have never seen ur blog. i recommend finding popular fics for the member ur writing for and using a similar list of hashtags to what they use, or just whatever else is relevant to ur fic like "#bts college au" or "#dom jungkook". also this is embarrassing bc i was prob the only one who didn't know this HAHA but when i first posted a fic (ch 1 of anti-hero) i used all the tags but it got 0 notes for like, hours so i was disappointed at first but then i found out u need to go in to the "visibility" tab of ur blog settings and make sure both of these are switched OFF:

so i took it down and reposted with the same tags and immediately got more notes lololol.

also, make sure ur description and banner look professional (and if ur using a header gif, make sure the creator allows reposts and give credit, or make ur own) and ur summary is engaging to draw readers in if they see ur fic on their dash!

beyond those basics, i really recommend joining author networks to meet other authors and get a new audience for your work from the network page as well as any new friends u make in the network! a great way to find networks is to check the page of more established authors u love and see which networks they're part of, then apply! and i almost don't like saying this as advice for this ask bc i reach out just to give feedback and make friends, not to try and get more readers for my own work, but a great way to get to know more authors and hype up each other's work is to just send them a comment, an ask, or reblog their fics with feedback about why u love them! i guarantee u all authors appreciate this so much (just like u sending me this ask! made me smile) and i've met such sweet people from commenting on their fics or from them commenting on mine, and it's just a nice thing to do 🥰 the more interactive u are, the more likely u are to find mutuals who u both love and support each other's work! i've honestly been pretty ia lately and not been responding to much (sorry 😅) bc im so busy rn but just try to put out good energy and u will hopefully get it back. honestly, ik it can be discouraging not to have a large audience or get a lot of notes/feedback but the #1 advice i have is to try not to depend on the online validation and go in with zero expectations, that way you'll always be pleasantly surprised! i'm so happy and grateful for every note i get and having a chill attitude towards writing vs intentionally trying to grow an audience/platform helps so much to keep it fun and avoid burnout. i'm sorry this ended up so long haha, hope it was helpful and lmk when u end up posting ur writing bc i'd love to read it! ❣️
