I do have that same worry as you do, but I still love writing for them and continue to do so. I dislike a majority of my fics, but someone out there likes them, and I'm eager to spread around my favorite pairing. ^^

I usually just read my OTP, but I do check out other fics if they have interesting premises, my OTP as a background pairing, or if they're for a pairing I like.

And. . . I've never requested anything before. XD
