Author’s Note

Okay so it’s a new year and obviously, people tend to make resolutions, and I’ve stopped doing them for a while cause I never keep them, but I want to do one specifically for writing and hope that I stick with it.

It might come to a shocker, since I update very little, but I do love writing. It’s one of my favorite things in the world. And I always wondered why was it that I could always write but never update? Well, this winter break I took a small break from Tumblr (most what would show up of mine was queue and sometimes I would just check in), sort of reflect and wrote a lot.

That helped me a lot because it made me realize that I didn’t update because I would pressure myself to reach a certain writing requirement and that would stress me out and lead me to not want to publish my chapters because I didn’t think they were good enough. I would do that all the time with each chapter and to be honest, I would get upset with myself when I would see others update and wonder why couldn’t I do that at least with one story of mine.

Anyways, what I’m trying to say is that I’m not going to do that anymore. I’m just going to write until I’ve written everything I needed for that chapter. I’m not going to pressure myself and just have fun. The whole point I got into Fanfiction was because I wanted to do something fun, not get stressed out.

So here’s for a new year of ignoring all my insecurities and just writing for fun!
