| HIGHEST RANK~ #910 IN FANFICTION | ♡ Completed| You one day find a poor kitty shivering himself to death in a box on the street in the heavy snowy weather, you decide to pick him up and carry him to your house and give him a place to stay at for...
I have decided after many months of decision, I have made the unfortunate decision to cease creating anymore writing MLB fanfiction. I'm just simply not into continuing on to write more MLB fanfiction, I'm still in the fandom and still love the show though, but, I'm no longer into writing about it.
I loved the fact that I put so much love into my writing and adding my piece to the MLB fanfiction out there. I first began writing in 2016- 5 years ago, half of a decade ago. Things change a lot in 5 years-let alone 1. I went through so much in 2016-2017, and Wattpad was one of the things that I was looking forward to when I got home from high school, I had my old phone then and wasn't able to write on the phone but I could read. I remember when I discovered MLB by an episode that was recommended to me on Youtube, and it had everything I loved about a magical girl show, considering I was working on my own magical girl series.
I loved the fact that there was a lot of diversity, and even a magical boy character! Chat Noir/ Adrien became my favorite.
I could relate to him on a personal level, he has a traumatic past, I have a traumatic past, he has an overprotective parent, I have one. So I began reading different fanfiction on Wattpad. But I realized that a lot of the descriptions were basically the same. You either moved to Paris, a singer, moved to a new school, having your own miraculous (cool but it was beginning to get old for me especially when some miraculous had the same animals), or l e m o n. I steered clear of lemons.
Plus reading x readers, it was weird how you somehow "run your fingers through your hair" but can't exactly? or the reader had fine hair. I noticed how the reader was basically a white girl or Marinette herself. and being a black girl, I definitely couldn't get a real grip on the book, the plot was good but what about people with long hair? Short hair? No hair? You can't see your blush if you have a darker skin complexion. What if one doesn't like pants? Skirts? Dresses? tank tops?
Besides that, I also realized Chat Noir is a cat-themed hero, so how come there aren't any fanfictions of him being a cat? Or at least half cat that has cat-like behaviors and abilities? 💡💡!! That was it!
Being the Aries moon I am, I decided to do it myself. If there isn't any books on here like that, I'll just do it MYSELF!
But, I waited.
I waited for someone to release a book of that idea, a neko/half-feline Chat Noir. There was none. I noticed how popular MLB was and I had the idea of what to write on Wattpad next. So, I wrote my first MLB fanfiction, this book here- Gottcha! Chat Noir x Reader. I wanted it to be different, to be diverse, to include more than ONE hair type. I also wanted it to be appropriate for everyone, and I didn't want everyone to feel left out somehow. I wrote out a few chapters and published them one by one, knowing no one would read it. I drew out my characters on notebook paper to the best of my ability with a pencil, colored pencils, crayons and a Sharpie. But soon I earned my first 10 library adds, my first 100 votes and my first 1,000 reads. And now 5 years later, almost 200,000 reads, and almost 1K followers. It blew up QUICK, people sent in fan art, dm'ed me and said how they loved how I written my works, complimented my art despite its cringey-ness. I mean it even made it to the top 1,000 in FANFICTION! FANFICTION YA'LL!!
I eventually asked people if they wanted another book, and another book turned into a few more books.
My depressed self actually has fans. Fans that look up to me for inspiration. Fans that sneak and read my book in class or past bed time. I wrote on here in class. I wrote on here til or even past bedtime on school nights, and on weekends or breaks I wrote until sunrise. Because that's how much I loved writing on here. Not to mention how I even met other MLB authors on here and we supported each other's works!
As much fun I had writing my fanfiction with my passion burning. My passion was also beginning to burn out for MLB. I began to run into writer's blocks more and I felt like I was failing others.
But as years pass, so is my age.
I'm beginning to outgrow writing MLB fanfictions peeps, it was already showing when I was writing an original book of mine, The Shy Girl's Bad Boy-which also became a success.
I decided to write one last fanfiction for everyone and I began to write a few unpublished chapters, but I think the other book was a sign that I should move on peacefully, MLB fanfiction can't be the only thing I want to write. I even practiced my drawing skills more, and now on digital just so I can be good enough for making my dream web comic.
The only thing I can do now for my fanfictions is make digital art for characters for them, or edit if I see a mistake, or re-write when I decide that it needs a makeover.
But this is it. My retirement. I'm already getting teary eyed. It's like your last day of high school on graduation night, and seeing and hugging your classmates and friends for one last time.
I will edit and publish the remaining chapters of what I have of the new fanfic soon. After that I'm retiring😂.
I'm not leaving Wattpad completely, I'll still be here, but will no longer work on MLB fanfiction
I loved every bit of this. From 2016 til on and forever, and this will forever be part of my heart. So perhaps one day, I come back on here and see how much my younger self has accomplished.
I checked off some things on my bucket list and didn't even realize it: I inspired people, and that's one of the best things that I can say that I did. I inspired others. I can always say that those who read my works may back on here and say, "Heyyy that's that Chat Noir book I read when I was before! I remember this!!" like those comics on deviantart you read years earlier. hehe.
That's something I'm proud of, leaving an impact.😌
