This is the response I got about what exactly this Author Recognition is.

I don’t know a lot of details right now, but if you’re a Rookie writer you may want to sign up. I saw this on Twitter/X.

They broke apart slowly from the kiss, but didn’t go far, resting their cheeks together, arms wrapping around each other. “So, we’re married now, Mr Bradford,” Lucy whispered. “How do you feel?” “I’m so happy, Mrs Bradford,” he whispered back. “Vowing to spend the rest of my life loving you was the easiest decision I’ve ever made.” His wife loosened her grip around his shoulders to lean back. She had never seen such love in his eyes as she did in that moment. She couldn’t believe her luck in marrying this man. “You did it, Lu.” Her husband smiled down at her, confusion flitting across her face. “I said I’d marry you tonight if I could. You made my wish come true.”

Ego trip much?????

Wow. Really?

I thought about not answering this at all because anonymous comments like this are cowardly, rude, and amount to social media bullying.

But just in case this anon bothers to look at my answer and decides to reconsider commenting like this in the future, I thought I’d take a minute to respond.

Nope. No ego trip here. But I am a hard-working full-time doctor and mom of four young kids who, after homework help, teaching my youngest to read and write, making meals, managing my house and gardens, studying new parenting/therapy techniques for my kids with ADHD, and trying to find time to exercise, will spend my precious spare minutes writing fanfiction.

Fanfiction writers spend hours crafting their stories that they post on a website where anyone can read them free of cost. Our only payment comes in the form of kudos and comments. We owe our readers nothing. Writing is a creative outlet, and posting our stories is a service, an act of love.

But thanks to you, anon, I may not be writing this weekend. Was that your goal, anon? Insult me and convince me of my worthlessness? Stop me from writing?

On second thought, maybe I WILL write because perhaps my decision not to write MIGHT actually be your sad, twisted goal.

I don’t know on what you decided to base your accusation. Perhaps on my post earlier about the strange comment I got? If so, please know that I take the time to respond to EVERY comment I get. But I’m not going to answer every question about my plot. I don’t give spoilers. And reading the story IS how you learn what happens next, not asking the writer.

So, anon, I wish you the best and hope that you will think twice before posting spineless criticisms to random people who you know next to nothing about.

Farewell.

I had the weirdest comment thread on a story of mine last night.

At the end of a 3k first chapter of a 150k, 18 chapter story that’s ongoing, they left a comment about how much they loved the story.

Great. Welcome to my story. I hope you enjoy it.

Then they proceeded to ask several questions about the plot and characters in the story.

I replied to each question, but each answer was basically ‘you’ll have to read the story to find out.’

Then they responded back that my story is too long, so they probably won’t read all of it.

Ooooookkkkay. So you just want me to write a cliff notes version of my story for you? Umm. No. Skim if yourself if the length of my story burdens you. Why did you start reading in the first place? It’s not like the length of the story is some hidden mystery.

Weird, right? I mean, I LOVE getting comments. But I really didn’t know what to make of that.

Anyway, moving on. I hope to finish the next chapter (of a different story) and get it posted soon (today maybe?).
