I feel similarly after five years. Thing is, I did get a wider audience a couple times, by writing an incest story and some mainstream anal stories. They went down well, got red Hs and a bunch of comments. But many of the anal commenters had very firm ideas of what did and didn't belong in a story, with comments like 'she should have done XYZ to him'. The incest commenters were nice (though wanted a life-long pairing rather than anything realistic for siblings), but vanished in droves when I returned to my usual type of stories that have queer and kinky overtones even if they're not full-on bisexual filth.After two years at it though, I think I'd gladly trade a few Red Hs for a higher volume of readers.
Looking for that breakthrough story that reaches the masses. Thought a few of my more recent ones would.
And they've done okay, don't get me wrong. Still, wish I could truly write one that REALLY reaches a wide audience.
Guess I'll just keep working at it.
There's an appreciative audience for the stories I really like writing, but I just have to accept it's smaller than other audiences and there's a limit to how many readers I can lure to the dark side.
