wiseheartAccording to FF.net:
Crossover - Doctor Who & Sherlock - Rated: T - English - Adventure/Friendship - Chapters: 70 - Words: 96,505 - Reviews: 169 - Favs: 69 - Follows: 126 - Updated: once a week, regularly.
Whining behind the cut - read it to your own peril.
Now, other stories with similar numbers of parts and also regularly updated usually have reviews beyond the quadruple digits. So, what am I doing wrong that scares the casual reader away? Yes, I do have my faithful readers, and I love you, guys, I really do. *hugs faithful readers*
But why is it that in the rare cases someone else can be arsed to review, they usually do to find fault? What have I done to these fandoms - or, indeed, to any other fandom in which I'm active - to deserve this?
I don't expect anyone to read and review everything I write, just out of friendship. But why is it that my stories are so unattractive to casual readers? I mean, I know that "Adventures" is long. But I do write short stuff, too (occasionally), with the same results.
Sometimes I think Circe was right when she said she had the feeling of wearing a FANDOM PARIAH shield on her back. That's what I feel like most of the time, too.
