“what if my fic isn’t good 😭” what if it’s good? what if it comforts someone? what if it becomes someone’s favorite work? what if you find people who enjoy the same things as you? so what if it ends up being bad, what if it brings you joy?

I don't put my fic anywhere but it's all self indulgent mostly oc nonsense that I throw the gdoc link to anyone who's OCs over commandeered for the purpose. They make me happy. I read them when I'm sad. I have no concept of if they're good or not but they're mine.
Saw this one tumblr post about how this person was reading a fic and kept thinking to themselves “man this sounds like a fic I wrote myself some years back” and the more they read the more they connected the dots on how similar the fic were up until it had an incomplete ending and when they were —
Going to message the writer on plagiarizing they’re work the reader found out it was their work from 10 years and they were in shock over how good it was lol
There's a fic for Wild ARMs 3, a game I fell in love with as a kid, that I still go back and read sometimes even though it's been almost 20 years since it was posted.
It has objective grammar issues in a few places and isn't the most dramatic prose; but it does feel like a familiar, warm blanket.

I started writing out of anger. Unbridled, blind fury at how the ending of Supernatural went down. Then I posted some stories.
The insane amount of comments, love, and thoughts people have shared with me blows my friggin' mind.
I make strangers smile - that's my superpower.
