Oh gods, the holy god of critique. >.< But what if I think it's *fine* as it is? Not perfect, just fine. Apparently this is not allowed.
I tried Wattpad, I couldn't make heads or tails of it, tbh. It's a super non-intuitive site. AO3 isn't perfect but I at least find it usable.
And yeah. The original vs. fanfic thing is so sad. Like Stallion Assassin, one of these stories, sold three copies. It's loosely inspired by Dark, my first Zelda fanfic, that has seven thousand hits! And over 400 kudos, so a lot of those people liked it. (I don't mind likes systems, I just loathe the use of dislikes, ugh.) But of course they like it because they like Zelda fandom, they like the Link/Dark Link pairing. It hasn't got anything to do with me, and that's a very sad feeling.
