You may have seen this post circling talking about how important it is to tell creators when you appreciate what they do.
The irony is it's MY post from Tumblr stolen by someone else. Please reskeet THIS post & NOT the stolen one bc we support creators making their own work on bluesky.

If I wanted to do it just for me, I wouldn't share it.
🙃
Also, the only people who read my comic were the people I sent it to directly.
But totally yeah it’s ironic someone’s been posting a cropped version without you 🙃
I appreciate your insights on publishing and eastern queer culture/media . I hope your campaign for the next project is doing well!
It's just irritating to me, like even if it's just keymashing, I will appreciate the response if they don't know what to say!
I write in a small fandom on its last legs. Still racking up numbers, but almost no comments.
I found a sensational 6yo fic the other day. Writer had almost no comments and appears to have stopped writing. :-( Just hoping they are still around to see my comments.
Which fandom is this?
I hope they see your comment too!
Can reliably get 150+ hits per chapter and still only 20-30 kudos, maybe a couple comments per chapter (mostly from the same people).
On a story with 200+ hits per chapter, there *might* be 2-3 comments.
It's old school. JP Alan/Ellie.
Peaky Blinders, featuring Chester Campbell and Grace.
I’m still discouraged.
i dont think i can ever go back now
I’m not a fast artist. I’m very slow. So it’s a huge effort.
I don’t know. I don’t know how to do more. It made me stop drawing for years.
artist, writers, and creative people nowadays are expected to just share, obey the public and be quiet. is not only that the public is silent is that also try to silence you.
Shared this one, though. Absolutely brilliant musings!
It basically just tells me my work is uninteresting, which is pretty much the worst thing art can be
And maybe even use the repost/retweet/reskeet button and that would be like opening Christmas presents early!

Aaaaand that makes seven!
cause now I can't afford to just buy them as they come out I mean.
wording is hard I am very tired haha.
Skeets are an act of rebellion and we love them dearly.
Just. No.
A part of me thinks it might have been a bad chapter or maybe I lost what little readership I had.
I honestly dont know. Makes it hard to keep going.
Of all posts to poach, THIS one is just too hypocritical. I'm sorry. Share my words on MY terms please.
It is by far my smallest social media platform so I do things a little differently there. Come hang out!
I'd rather keep the energy here about supporting creators rather than punishing thieves. This version reaching people instead is more than enough 💙
This helped me a lot to start engaging.
I don't need a deep commentary or funny quip for every comment, just a simple expression like "Awesome!" or a keyboard smash is enough to help folks know that their work is seen and appreciated.
