See, I know people are (probably) reading just not replying because I've been that way for most everyone lately. Normally it doesn't even register that I've had no comments. I don't care, it doesn't bother me. Even the fic I've posted in the last few months has had almost no comments and I didn't care.
But when I'm like this it just seems to be this huge deal and it's so stupid and makes me feel worse. Ugh. It doesn't help that my family doesn't pay attention to me. They only talk to me when they want something for themselves. If I start to talk about things that I want or that are important to me they tune me out because they don't care at all.
About the only time I've had one listen is when I described the plot of my book to my 12yo daughter who reads the same YA stuff I do. She was very interested in it and occasionally asks me for updates. Any other time I talk about the novel I'm ignored.

Writing is so lonely.
