In need of motivation.

If a fiction have some viewers and subscribers but with none or a few comments... does it still consider it is a good read.  Although like maybe some the authors said we write not because we want to receive comments. I started off with just wanting to post my story, but when I go halfway I felt as if it's  too boring maybe, then I thought I usually comment on other fiction at the beginning or the ending. So I struggle hard trying to go through the writer's block. And finish it...and managed rmto get one comment. 

Does that really mean I am not that good? What I a m feeling now is scared of posting my story and feel like giving up. I have anew one but with no confidence.

Help! Motivate me!😥😢

just because there's a lot of readers/comments, doesn't mean a fic is that good. just because there's no comment doesn't mean a fic is bad. readers can have poor taste too(even if it's arguable that it depends on readers' taste...but some fics are just flat out....uhm...not good but still receive a lot of love). lol. i've come across this situations a lot in aff. i'd say its not just the story's factor that'd earn you readers/comments. there are aplenty criterias sometimes i'd find absurd but hey, that's how the cookie crumbles i guess. i never like those sayings 'write for yourself'....feels too pretentious/fake. people who purely write for themselves won't have to post the fics on public site. i don't have sweet words to motivate you, sorry bout that (though i'm sure many would have it) bcuz sweet words can't change reality, only the way we view it...and i feel that is sadder....but well, congrats on powering through your writer's block. not everyone have that ability. i always feel great whenever i complete a story, bcuz that rarely happens. the moment i complete a story with hardly any comment...i feel like...'whatever comment/no comment....i completed this now...all on my own without any of your nonexistent support, cuz i'm fabulous like that so i deserve all the credit...yay me'.
