Ugh. Guys, i was doing so well with my confidence, but every single time I log back into this app, it’s either got a ton of hate comments, or...something else I don’t wanna mention just yet. I really miss updating my books, but it’s come to the point in which my anxiety is making me think “nobody will like this” or “this is too cringeworthy” so I just don’t write. Writing is something I am so passionate about, it helps me through a lot, but people only read my fanfiction books. I try to write stories on here with my best ideas, but if it’s not fanfiction, I get 1-5 reads. It really hurts. I’m honestly thinking of deleting this account as a whole because I’m so tired of this. I can’t bring myself to do that, though. I’m so proud of myself for getting 23k on “only virgins” and 2k on “50 Shades of Wolfhard” I literally NEVER even thought about getting that far with my books, it made me so happy when I hit even 100 reads. It still makes me happy. But, I looked through comments and a lot of them are hilarious, for the longest time I’d scroll through and see these really funny comments, but then hate started to roll in. I can take hate, but in the place I’m at where my anxiety is pounding me to the ground, I’ve become so sensitive to having my books called “cringeworthy” or “terrible” because I put so much effort into my writing. I get it, my old books were fucking bad, but give me a break, I’m a different writer now, a better one. Sorry for the rant. I’m just really pissed and upset. If you’ve been positive or read my books, thank you so much. Don’t think I’m not thankful for the amount of reads I have, because I am so happy and so appreciative to have reached this far, thank you.
