May Writing Meme: Day 9
May. 9th, 2011 07:29 am9. Do you share your writing publicly or keep it private? Have you or would you like to be published?
Public-in-name-only would probably be the most accurate. I post them on Ao3, and then occasionally to my journal, but unless they're *for* a specific fest, I don't generally crosspost or do anything to draw attention to them. AFAIK, I'm a No Name Fan with a bunch of obscure fandoms and less popular pairings (Final Fantasy peeps can laugh at that) and weird ideas who doesn't mind if other people enjoy the fic she writes for herself.
Part of me thinks being published would be fun, but more realistically, I wouldn't have the time or drive to really be successful as a published writer, beyond the fact that I highly doubt my ideas are the type that would appeal beyond a diminishingly narrow audience. More so, I'd rather be a subtle but undeniable influence on writers who do get published, and see my ideas out there in that way.
