Same for non fiction writing. If people can see how you might make a living from what you make, they love to downvote it to oblivion. Guess we're all suppposed to have office wage jobs all day and write fanfic for free at night. It definitely keeps me from ever posting about my writing.
It’s really bothersome. Particularly with Mastodon, users want to finger wag those that remain on big social, yet they also don’t want people to do the things that help them survive or express their creativity. It’s conflicting and nonsensical. When decentralisation should be pitched to creatives so they can down their content and take out the middleman which is big social. It is honestly disappointing
Are there places to post writing? I used to haunt r/writingprompts
The communities on https://literature.cafe/ should probably welcome this
Thanks so much!
We absolutely welcome that here :)
Yup! !writing@literature.cafe & !writingprompts@literature.cafe
