Preach that shit πππ
...improvement isn't only in the big things like writing a 10k story in one sitting or responding positively to negative comments on your work. Progress is in the seemingly small but actually big things too;
You finally learned how to correctly spell that word you frequently use.
2. You found a differently word you can use in place of the verb you've abused
3. You wrote a whole ass paragraph for your draft without feeling insecure about it because you're finally understanding that drafts are meant to be messy.
4. It's taking you months to complete the next chapter of your story. At first you felt bad about it every second of your day but now you actually haven't felt bad for a whole hour. Slowly you're understanding that art takes time and you deserve to be patient and kind with yourself.
5. You took the step to read/listen to a random post about how to write better. Maybe you haven't put that advice into practice yet but hey, you clicked on it and listened/read till the end
6. You managed to read one of your own posted stories, I'll feelings about it or no
7. You now celebrate every vote/kudos/like you get on your story because you know that a real human being is behind it, loving your work, shoddy as you think it might be.
8. Today you woke up caring a little less about how your stories aren't that popular in the fandom. Finally you're learning to write for you and to just dwell on enjoying the writing process instead of focusing on how the world will receive your story when you post
9. You read comments on your story which suggest you take your story in a certain different direction, but you successfully ignore those suggestions and courageously stick to the story you want to tell.
10. You ended the day still resisting the urge to have AI write your story for you.
Congratulations to you, most improved writer, even if only one of the items on this list resonates with youπππ€
You're still growing and improving after all.
getting off work with friends
I mean tell me in advance but yes!
reblog if youβre okay with people writing fanfics of your fanfics and/or fanfics inspired by your fanfics

Consider commenting or sending an ask :p
Preach
When you sit down to write, and the entire scene plays out perfectly in your mind, but on paper it ends up looking like this: βhe smiled, his smiling eyes staring at them with a hint of smileβ
βAre you sure no one will like my blorbos?β
The Bible writing commenter the second they witness Shakespeares second coming (thats you π«΅):
YOU!! YES, YOU!! GO WRITE THAT FANFIC YOU THINK NOBODY BUT YOU WILL READ!!
So apparently Barns and Nobles justβ¦let you print out your own books for little cost? I had always wondered of those who make their fanfiction into physical things to read rather than through a screen, but I didn't think it would be this easy.
The idea of printing my own fic into a physical book just sounds nice for some reason.
Actually, printing anyone's fic into a physical book to re-read just sounds awesome. As long as you aren't planning to sell it, it's a nice way of solidifying it, making it easy to re-read, and being easier on the eyes!
That said, asking the author would be a nice gesture at the minimum, since sure they can't do much to stop you (especially if it's with copyrighted material), but I suppose it would be a dick move.
Like, seriously go look for yourself it's like less then $10 for 200 pages or less it's amazing.
