More Accolades and More Thank You's · 6:26pm May 9th
Hey guys!
Once again, the support on 'I Know You're There' has been beyond anything I could have imagined. Not only is it still jostling for places in the highest spots on the Featured Box, having been at the very top for more than three days, but it's also contending for being one of the highest rated stories I've written full-stop.
To which end, I'd like to share some of the cool statistics I've taken note of!
Firstly, it's now the most viewed story I've written since 2014, a statistic that alone is still messing with my perception of time. When did Shrek 2 come out in cinemas, it was only a few months ago. Right?
Secondly, the Like/Dislike ratio is always a statistic that interests me. At the very least, it's a measure of who felt strongly enough when reading to just interact at the most basic level. Well, this story reached 209 Likes before it got its first Dislike. I... just wow.
It's very much testament to how much the 'hate to write, love to have written' mindset is lingering with me at the moment. Getting thoughts down is a struggle, but the outcome is always satisfying. It's especially nice to see when people agree! Thank you to everyone who has interacted, favourited, and commented.
Anyway, that's me gushing again. Thanks for listening!

Well deserved accolades, 8_Bit! You've been killing it and I'm super happy to see you continue pushing forwards. Keep it up and can't wait to see what you come out with next!
I remember those halcyon days of 2014 when they fandom just kept growing becoming bigger and bigger while people from 2011 (or the very end of it in my case) looked on in pride and astonishment.
2014 was the era where things got too serious for me, too much big talent in the fandom that made me feel small.
It's nice to see people from those days who remind me that it's not all anthro, anon and clop on this site.
Like I said, you have to win this contest.
That's not anything that has to be figured out, it's just a simple fact.
Excellent work.
