Hey, followers. I see that I've reached 300! Now, to a lot of people that would seem like an achievement. But to me it's just a realization on what a lot of those followers are.
Ghosts.
They follow you just for the follow back, not because they like your writing or anything else that you do. Half of them aren't active most of the time. I'm not saying that every single person that follows me is like this, but a vast majority is.
It seems to me that only 10-30ish people are interacting with my account. That's not a bad thing, I'm not saying that. I actually would much prefer it that way, I don't want a lot of attention. But I would rather have only 30 people follow me and all those 30 people interact with me than 300 people follow me and only 10% of that interact with me.
And so because of this, I'm starting a new account. I'm not telling anyone it apart from a few people because I don't want the same thing to happen. But if I don't acknowledge this, history is just bound to repeat, y'know?
I do thank the 300 people who follow me for getting me where I am, I know it's not even a lot, but I'm grateful.
I'm gunna miss this account. I might go on it every once and a while to see how everything is going, but other than that, this account is going to be dead. I just want a fresh start.
I'm sorry.
