hey bird,

don't worry about seeming egotistical for promoting stories- sometimes people need an extra little nudge to do it. i've discovered several amazing stories that way, and if you have something to recommend for me, i'll be more than happy to read it. i'm not the most diligent commenter, mostly because i write on here more than i read. like fiery said, i write for myself and have stopped being discouraged by the number of comments i get. i want to see what i did wrong and i want comments so i can ''improve. ''

i completely understand you and i fully agree with you. there are brilliant writers everywhere that don't get comments and feedback because they're not 'mainstream'. horrible writers get more credit than so many writers who have written genuinely interesting and wonderful books. on here, too, i notice that there are authors with great stories who get no comments because they're not 'mainstream' and don't constantly beg people for attention.

you've offended nobody, and you what you say is true. i really hope you continue writing and find motivation to keep on going <3
