fandom has given me so much

While giving myself a pep-and-perspective talk of sorts earlier today, it struck me that I am not as anxious as I used to be about whether my writing will find its readers. And that a reason for this is because strangers are still letting me know (primarily via AO3 kudos) that they are enjoying fics I posted more than three years ago.
It is so pleasing to receive them. There is so much out there, and so much claiming and clamoring for everyone's time, that it continues to amaze me when people read and respond to pieces I wrote many moons ago. Thank you all -- for entrusting some of your time to me, and for taking the time to let me know that you are reading. This knowledge is a blessing I did not expect, and I am so grateful.
