Baby doesn't like shameless self promotion

"I'm uncomfortable with this on so many levels..."

Anyone else have a thing against advertising their fic?  It just seems weird to paste links to my stuff all over (like in the rec comms and stuff).  I don't know why.  If I ever became a published author I'd be screwed with all the publicity stuff.  I hate it.  Maybe I'm just weird.

Of course, I also get very few reviews on my stories but oh, well.  Just wondering if I was alone?

Also because I wanted an excuse to post this video from iCarly.  It cracks me up.

Yes, I'm easily amused.

I know some people expect dozens and dozens of comments on their writing, but I feel pretty darn special to get eight or ten!

I don't expect anything either. I'm thrilled if I get like 2 or 3. I usually get a couple on my LJ from friends but most I get at ff.net but still I only ever get like 3 or 4. I still wonder how people end up with hundreds of reviews. Shrug. I'm not in it for my ego so I really don't care.

Getting excited squee from my friends on LJ is the best. I prefer that over a hundred "good story" at ff.net.
