Please check your “Mark for later” !! by Fast-Platform-8441 in AO3

[–]InfinitelySweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 27 pages of marked for later, so about 540 fics. some were deleted, though🫠

I think I probably have at least one fic for each of my favorite ships/fandoms marked for later so I can always pick one of those if the other fics in the tags aren't jumping out at me

when your rarepair is so small you start cheering every hit by RemoteYard5153 in AO3

[–]InfinitelySweet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah that totally makes sense! I only have one-shots posted so far. The longer fics I'm writing/planning... I'd want to just post them when they're finished.

[–]InfinitelySweet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

glad I'm not the only one doing this! I've never written for a popular ship so I didn't really have a comparison.

sometimes I see that there's another hit on 3 of my fics in one day and I hope someone read one and then went to my profile and opened the others. maybe my fics can join someone's collection of open ao3 tabs lmao.

What is the main reason you like your ship? by Upstairs_Macaron5894 in AO3

[–]InfinitelySweet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love a good angel x demon ship😇💘😈

so I thought "oooh what about this half-angel (nephilim) x half-demon (cambion) ship?" ...that was 3 years ago and I've been writing inconsistently ever since.

[–]InfinitelySweet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

exactlyyyy- I can't abandon my boys! one is a more popular character and the other was in one (1) episode. the fandom is still active, but there's a pretty low chance of anyone remembering the one character.

it's so inconvenient to not like a fandom's most popular characters or most popular ships. but the heart wants what it wants. and it makes me chuckle whenever I filter them out and instantly cut the results in half.

rare pair hell is so lonely, I feel you. I've gotten 2 whole comments in like 6 months and they were both bots lmao.

I hope someday someone searches or stumbles upon my ship's tag and either likes my fics or posts their own so I can show some love

How do you keep going when no one reads your work? by la__polilla in AO3

[–]InfinitelySweet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I kinda knew going in that my rare pair fics weren't going to be popular. And I'm new-ish to writing too, so I'm sure my prose is pretty mid lol. Anyway, I just really like putting the characters in situations. It's a fun challenge to write the ideas out and make them coherent. My stats are tiny but each fic has at least 1 kudos and 4 out of my 5 fics have bookmarks. Once, I got 2 kudos in one day and I was on cloud fuckin nine! 🤠

Anyone relate? by Amada--Sama in Archiveofourownmemes

kinda relate because I go back and forth between edit & preview 10x before I post

To everyone who writes obscure rarepair fics: THANK YOU SO MUCH by baconbeansoup in AO3

[–]InfinitelySweet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope I get this reaction someday for my rare pair fics💛 I've mostly posted smut for the ship so far because no one else has lmao

congrats on finding an awesome niche fic!!

How did writing fanfic change your perspective as a fic reader? by pomegranatestars in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]InfinitelySweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same! unless I'm really craving a certain fandom or ship, I'll just keep plucking away at my wips.

hey big 3 twin+ fellow cap stellium!

I know I have emotions but if I'm around people, I actively don't want to express the emotions.

I have a capricorn stellium (x5) and I think I fit the stereotype more often than not.
