User blog:Fanfictiondreamer/Recognition and Appreciation

So, I was told by my biggest admirer that I have been getting noticed on here. I haven't realized it. This is something that I have always wanted since it's so frustrating when you don't get any attention on the web. Well, I know that can only go so far by myself. In order to actually get somewhere, I would need help from as many people as I can.

Before I was on DeviantArt, I barely had anyone recognizing me. That was until I met IkranRider. Ever since she saw my work, she became a big fan of mine. I'm flattered, but even after all these years, I'm still not use to it. Guess because I've been so use to being by myself for so long. Well, it was her that introduced me to this site and I have been posting stuff left and right ever since. You can really tell that I have a lot to post on here. Well, my story is a really big story and it has grown over the years.

Also, you know what? I'm not one who would just shine the spotlight on myself and feed on my own ego. Fame has a way of doing that and it's hard for me to talk about this without sounding like I would be full of myself, but I feel as though I have no other choice. However, ego doesn't get my work recognized nor it is what makes these stories special. Other than the unique stuff that I put into it, what really makes these stories truly special, our work and everything, is the fandom. Without fans, our work could never grow like they do. Take a look at a lot of the popular shows, games, books and movies. They became that way because of the many people that like all of them and it takes a large fandom that causes these works to grow. That's what we need more than anything.

Also, we do not need to be the best in the world. We all have our own spotlights that and so many of us that work so hard to be recognized deserves their own spotlight. I don't want to be the best, I don't need that, I just want to let people know who I am.The same goes for my fan, IkranRider. She has her own stories and she could use some recognition. A lot of artists do, be it fans or writers or fans who create work, much like us. It's hard for me to get into other's work for personal reasons, but I really think that you should give her a shot. The same goes for everyone else. We all deserve a shot at recogntion. A lot of you seem as though you have so many great ideas.
