Hi dear anon <3
Short version of my answer: I feel and get your frustration, but I have hope that our community is in the middle of its revival and that everything will be alright!

Long answer:
I totally get you.
I've been writing for 5 years, consistently posting multiple sevngjin fics every year since 2020, and I have seen the change for sure. From 2023 onwards the number of readers (and therefore writers) diminished and the engagement got less and less, making writers discouraged to keep posting. I began to expect less and less as well from the fics I posted, and while for me personally the love for writing stories and sevngjin is enough to keep me going, I also have gathered a few regular readers over the years so that is relatively easy for me to say, and I understand the frustration of newer writers.
It's completely normal and incredibly valid to want to hear that you did great and to want to know that people read what you wrote!! I do too! I think everyone does! So I will always try to encourage people to please comment and please let writers know that you enjoy their work, because that is what will keep them going.
I don't think it's completely fair to compare sevngjinners with 2mnners and mnsngers because there are So so so so many more readers for those two pairings than for sevngjin, and simply statistically speaking the chances are bigger that you will get comments bc more people read it! Yet even for those pairings there are also authors struggling with engagement at times (my sister writes mnsng so I know from her)
Also, this is still a fandom and all of us are doing this for free and for fun, so however much we think that it should be obvious that readers should comment or that writers deserve more love, we cannot force people to do anything. If people don't want to read or comment for any reason, they are allowed to not do that! The only thing we can do is try to show people why it's important to engage, show our gratitude and happiness when they DO interact, and hope that some think "hey, I maybe I can leave a comment more often"
Nevertheless, I agree in that I hope that sevngjinners will show more passion, and I am hopeful about that ever since the revival of sevngjin after their 2kr! I feel like slowly but surely, the sevngjin rpf community is regaining their spirits and will start reading and writing more! At the very least I do see more engagement on twt, so that is hopefully a good sign that things will change for the better!

I hope my rambling makes a bit of sense, and I hope that you will keep going, spread the sevngjin love, spread the importance of supporting each other, and that my predictions of the revival of the sevngjin fic community will come true!

Hi!! <3
I can give you some tips yes! I will preface this by saying that I am by no means professional, so do with this whatever feels right to you! I am just giving tips/suggestions!

What you can try to do to change things up is to try to pinpoint what the important parts of your fics are: does it have a specific setting like royalty or fantasy? what are the things your characters struggle with or are there specific things they like? Try to incorporate other elements of your fic into the confession scene!
So for example, if one of your characters is insecure, you can prolong the confession bc the character doesn't believe the other yet, or have the character ask for assurance ("so you like me despite x?"). Or if a character really likes flowers, or smth else, have them or the other confess giving that! Or if previously in the fic something romantic happened, have the characters mention that or recreate that!
There are many small ways to make the confession scenes a bit different like that, and you can even add them as you edit/revise your fic!

Last thing I want to say is that it is normal and understandable to feel like everything you write is the same and I think many writers struggle with that, BUT that is okay! Many readers love reading the same thing over and over again (me too), and every writer has their own style and things that they love putting into fics, and it's okay if it's not always 100% original (that's impossible anyway).
In my eyes, even if you have the same confession scene in fics, it probably feels different because the rest of the fics are different, but it definitely doesn't hurt if you want to change it up!
Hopefully my tips can help you, and don't be too strict for yourself, bc writing is for fun! :D <3 good luck and have fun writing dear anon <33333

Hi!! <333
Of course I can share some tips! I won't say that I am the best at keeping things short, and sometimes for drabbles it's okay to get carried away a little, but if you want to keep things short for a drabble I have a few things that I focus on myself:
1) Try to write only ONE scene! If you think you can't fit everything in one scene, try to keep the scenes short!
2) Skip all the backstory and introduction, and start writing in the middle of the action if you can! If not, try to keep the intro to a few sentences and/or keep the backstory and context to a few sentences scattered between the action.
3) Practice helps! And don't worry too much, it has to stay fun <3

I usually try to keep drabbles between 500-1k words, but there's not one set length (ignoring the "actual" definition of drabbles being exactly 100 words), and as I mentioned before, it's okay to get carried away, but I also think it's a skill to be able to keep things short (I'm still learning as well).
Hope this helps and I'm happy that you're enjoying the drabbles, thank you!!! <33333
