To all my writers out there,
particularly fanfic writers because I am one and I’m feelin this hardcore…
- It’s okay that you haven’t written for a while, you can take breaks.
- You can start writing again whenever you want, you don’t need an excuse.
- If you would still like an excuse, here it is: I want you to start again, you should totally do it.
- It’s ok if you’re out of practice, you’ll pick up traction again.
- We’re all learners and its good to have role models, but try to be better than the writer were before, and try less to be ‘as good as’ someone else.
- It’s alright to abandon a piece if you have no enthusiasm or passion left for it.
- It’s okay to be needlessly dramatic.
- It’s okay to be needlessly ridiculous.
- Write the crackfic, write the rarepair, or write the popular pair. Write what you want to write.
- Yes someone has probably written this scene before.
- Write it anyway if you want to write it.
- Yeah that trope has probably been done a million times.
- Use it anyway if you want to use it.
- Probably there are people who are tired of reading about that AU.
- Write it anyway, they don’t have to read it.
- Respect your audience, but don’t let other people dictate what you create.
- Reblog your own work. Be proud of it. You deserve to pat yourself on the back.
- I’m proud of you, you’re doing great.
- Keep writing, keep making stuff. People will care.
- Future you will especially care.
