Reinesse but yeah, im also a perfectionist but my lazy side is too overpowered that my perfectionist side cowers in fear ๐ and sometimes, when we post a chapter, we tend to nitpick too much on the "is it okay?" "Is it alright for them?" "I need to see some comments!!!"
Then almost every minute i would check the comments section. Literally. Almost. Every. Minute.
But i learned that it soon became a toxic trait to have so what i do, i developed that "Publish and Run" kinda style wherein i publish a chapter, then i 'run away' which is like literally not opening that chapter until I post another chapter (or until I actually remembered after a few days that I didn't look at the comments in the prev chapter.) Cuz thats when you give the readers enough time to read and review it.
Also, i used to always ask "why is it not a bit known?", "am i doing enough?" But ynow, you just gotta look back on why you started writing in the first place.
Is it really to be known?
Is it really about being regarded as the best novel?
Well, for me, I started because I wanted to breathe life into an unusual character and to show them a different universe so after a few chapters and days of just focusing on my own novel, i soon disregarded things like comparing my own works to others, power stones, and rankings. Instead, I just dwell on the fact that my novel exist for me and for people that wishes to read it until the end of its story ๐
I'm not saying that you shouldn't care about those rankings or avoid it completely, but you shouldn't let it define your novel and discourage you. It's just an added bonus or a feature that shouldn't stop you from writing.
