I am curious (purple)

[gwyn]

One of the things that the past couple weeks or so brought home to me is that I'm completely bewildered by why anyone reads this LJ. I know most of my flist comes from the Jossverse -- especially Buffy fans. Judging by the response to last week's new chapter of my F&F WIP, it's not for the F&F fic updates. Many of you are folks I know through fandom, especially vidding. And then there's the inevitable confusion over why I get both massively defriended after a usage post, but also friended by a lot of new people, and many of them haven't been shy about telling me it's boring if I don't do more usage posts. At this point I almost have no idea what to use it for anymore. I would actually be grateful if you'd do the ticky box thing, and let me know, so I can figure out what to focus on. As it is, with fic, I'm trying to put the focus back in the Buffy since I think there's clearly more interest there, but is there something else I should be wasting words on?

I think one of the cool things about having something like the usage posts or reviews linked to is that you bring new people to the party, but the bad part is that they often expect that this is your journal in its entirety. So that's been difficult because anyone who's read more than a few entries knows I'm like a five year old and bounce from thing to thing, with no tie in. I do sometimes wonder if I must seem like I have multiple personality disorder! While I don't like them telling me to only do X and such, I do kind of get it sometimes. They thought it was this, only it's that. Probably no way to make them happy, though.
