The Things About Fanfics

The things about fanfics

In the past few weeks, I was really demotivated, mostly because I thought my writing was cliche, cringe, you know the stuff. I was bent on making everything really perfect, really refined, down to all of the details. Because of this, I never really finished anything and had a bunch of drafts packed up in my Quotev account. I just forgot about a lot of the things I wrote because it was time-consuming.

I think writing is also like doodling in some way — you can only do well if you enjoy it. If you keep hitting undo, erasing your sketches and doodles, bent on making them perfect, you forget to enjoy yourself — you forget that these cliché, cringey things are perfectly fine and can make someone laugh. Some time later, when you look back, these things you wrote can make you laugh as well.

All because of your silly doodles and wobbly little drawings, or in this case, your silly little fast food fanfics that you cooked up.

So, being imperfect is totally fine. It's all about enjoying yourself :)))
