I'm just frustrated. I'm part of a group chat of artists, and one of the other artists was complaining about "not getting enough attention on their artwork". THey're probably one of the most popular artists in the chat. If them only getting thirty likes or whatever is "not getting attention" then what the heckie do you call what I receive? I'm hecking lucky to get three+ likes on my art, much less having people actually respond to it! They have a huge following and people love their art, and none of my followers ever interact with me. They never have. Even back in my dA days, people might fav my work, but nobody would ever comment. Now on twitter... nobody even bothers. I guess I'm just not hecking good enough for people. It's so aggravating to hear her complain about feeling like nobody pays attention to when everyone's always paying attention to her art and writing.
I don't want to get into my... feelings of inadequacy about my writing, but im gonna bc i just gotta wordvomit somewhere where people I know aren't going to see it. People don't want to read fanfiction that isn't NSFW! It's a major pain bc I DON'T WRITE NSFW STUFF. It feels like people just don't bother with a fic that doesn't have a dang content warning for the kinda stuff CS wants you to fade to black on. And bc I don't write that kind of stuff, nobody reads or cares about what I write.
I guess I just want people to notice my work? Like dang, is that really too much to ask? I wish I didn't have this heckin desire for attention and validation of my work, but what can I do? I don't want to annoy my friends with showing them art, because I know they'll get sick of it. I'm sure the art chat I'm in is sick of seeing my art.
It just feels like nobody cares, and that I'm not good enough.
