When I get kudos on something I've written, it's like a little "ping" that someone liked something I did. It's kind of a like a secret admirer note, in my mind:D

I'll happily subscribe to this definition :D I don't have much of any fic up on AO3 (not very prolific, nor think the fic is interesting enough for much anyone else but my brain to bother putting it up), but the few times I've gotten kudos it's made me :DD
