>>77281263I don't, that's why I'm asking. And usually I don't ask, I just write and see if it sticks. I ask in this circumstance because it's an extreme fetish about a sensitive topic. Otherwise I would've just gone for it to see if it was a winner or not.
I don't write for the challenge. I write because I enjoy other's having fun with my story. That is my motivation. The motivation to do it for yourself or the challenge isn't wrong, it's just not mine.
>>77281125(you)'s aren't the problem. It's if the story gets lambasted because people were never interested to begin with. I would have put a lot of work crafting a story and it would be for a bad payoff. If people aren't on board for it, I would rather work hard on something people are on board for or mildly enjoy at the very least.
It's literally that simple. A happy audience makes me happy. An unhappy audience kills my motivation and makes me wish I'd never expended the energy. I want to give out something a lot of people will enjoy.
>>77281530I'm not policing anyone. I'm literally asking for the opinion of others. If they like it, wonderful. If not, so be it. Either route suits me. I won't mandate people enjoy it, I just want to know before I expend the effort.
You are all taking everything I have said as something far greater than what it really means. I am holding up an apple and saying "would you like me to give you more apples." That's it. It is no grand plan or act of malice. It's a baker asking if they want apple pie or blueberry muffins. I don't want to sound angry, but please stop taking what I'm saying for more than it means.
