Perfect description of the whole feeling. Great job – except I can’t ever seem to get anyone to read my mid-series ficlets. And no one cares enough to say anything negative about what I do in my spare time. Mostly they whine about what I don’t do. =)
@Stovo, you make a good point. I think it would help if part of the inspiration could link to the first ficlet in the series. Making it easier for people to start from the beginning if they show up in the middle and want to read the whole thing. I guess I should post that to the feedback rather than posting it in a comment? Back on topic. 1,000? I haven’t even hit 100 on any of mine. Maybe if Wil Wheaton posted about one on his blog?
lol I can relate to this one. People see me on Ficlets and they have no clue what it is. I’ve had to explain it like 500 times. Me and my friend who is also a ficleteer talk about it at school and everyone just stares at us like we’re crazy. Silly people don’t know what they’re missing.
Another fun ‘from the addled mind of a ficleteer’ ficlet. Apparently we all have a sort of addictive relationship with the site and the process. Kind of comforting how universal the human experience can be at times, despite how unique we each are. And though I will willingly tell people what I do here, nobody in my real life has read the things I write with only rare exceptions. Such sweet safety in anonymity.
I can completely relate to this character, many people don’t know what they are missing by not being on this site. And 1000 comments!? Whoa!! The most I have ever had is like 5! Great job!
