This is very sand and I'm regretting posting my story
I took a break from Ao3 to focus on college exams and when I came back, I saw that I had several comments on a story I've been working on for 8 years. It's a story that I personally love and I wouldn't have posted it if it weren't for my friends asking me to do so, so they could read it. Seeing the comments I couldn't help but feel terrible, seeing that something I've put so much effort and dedication into receives such accusations is simply disappointing and makes me rethink whether it has really been worth spending years planning characters, relationships, settings, mythology and many other things. I simply wanted to share a story in which there are characters that people can relate to and have fun reading, I was already disappointed to see that it didn't have much success in relation to views, but posting these comments without even reading the authors' notes (and probably without having read all the chapters) is simply wanting to hurt and makes me think that people who post them are because they are jealous. I'm going to be honest, I did in fact use Google translator for some words, English it's not my main language and I wrote the story in my main language so there are some words that can't be translated and I had to ask Google or my English teachers in order to do so and that's said in the notes. I don't know, I would like to know what you think.
