being an adult is just… calling people that’s literally it… just calling people you don’t want to call about problems you don’t want to have to be solving.. it’s disgusting
i know that some folks love telling creative people that “you should be doing it for fun because you love it not for the compliments” but creative people thrive on feedback whether it’s critical or just complimentary
so when i write fanfiction and don’t get any actual feedback i feel like i spent all that time and energy doing it for nothing because i’m not getting feedback from the people i wrote it for
doing something you’re proud of and then presenting it to the sound of utter silence is like the worst feeling on earth
You don’t read comics and you have no idea what’s going on in comics. Blissful ignorance.
You start reading comics sporadically, or following just one title. You still have no idea what’s going on, but now you’d like to.
You read comics obsessively and follow several titles as well as back issues. Wednesday is the highlight of your week. You still have no idea what’s going on.
You resent the fact that you have to buy so many titles and read so many issues to get the proper context for any given storyline. Wednesday is the worst day of your week and your wallet cries for mercy. You still have no idea what the hell is going on in comics.
You stop reading comics. Return to stage one and repeat the cycle.
