This year I gave myself permission not to finish books I don’t like and to drop games that lose my attention. Still, I did okay.
I didn’t work as hard to maintain a steady posting schedule this year, and nothing bad happened. Nothing good happened either. Social media is changing, and engagement is down across the board. Still, I did okay.
In 2026, I’d like to keep track of AO3 comments I leave, with the point being to encourage myself to leave more of them. Even if it’s just a generic “I really enjoyed this story,” it’s still worth sending the author a nice note. I appreciate short comments when I get them myself, and I think seeing short comments on a work on AO3 encourages other readers to leave short comments too. Not everything needs to be an essay. The things you do for fun don’t have to be difficult to be meaningful.
