Let's start with a short summary of my Wattpad history, shall we?

The last time I seriously wrote a fanfic was around the middle of 2016, and it was a very cringy Yuri Plisetsky fic.

Okay, I'll be honest, I had 3 Wattpad accounts ever since the end of 2015. My first account was just for reading all sorts of books until I decided to write my very first story. It was an original fantasy/romance kind of story, and I was doing great with it.

The only thing I remember is that the title was "War of Love" or something. It went on until like 4 chapters and my account started "glitching." Back then I didn't have an official account since I couldn't verify it with an email and I didn't have an email, so...

I couldn't publish the rest of the chapters. And I was also running out of motivation to write. And I also couldn't find a good book cover and eventually, I discontinued the story. That led to me deactivating the account.

I stopped using Wattpad for a while and then one of my friends showed me her account and I was like, "Hey, maybe I should try writing again."

And I did.

I made a 2nd account, which was previously @NightsWithoutStars_ and it is now deactivated (which is quite sad haha)

That account is my favorite one. I kept it since 2016 and halfway through 2017. I even wrote some original stories there about my school friends. They're gone now though, and I'm quite sad for not saving them first before deactivating my account :'(

That account also started my anime phase.

Yuri!!! On Ice was pretty popular near the end of 2016, and that literally pushed my motivation to its limits. I wrote a Yuri Plisetsky fic that existed until the 8th chapter, and I realized that the story had a lot of plot holes and writing that sounded cringy when you read it out loud. So I unpublished it and edited it and sometimes I was like, "Yeah, I'm gonna publish it in May, actually, June," and it ended up not being published at all.

But one fateful day, my YouTube recommended me the Blood Sweat & Tears MV.

The MV itself was so aesthetic and JIMIN, MY ULTIMATE BIAS, looked so hot, like omg. (ok now i sound cringy pls forgive me thx)

AND SO I BECAME AN INTROVERTED TEENAGER THAT STARES AT 7 DORKS THAT DO STUPID THINGS THROUGH A SCREEN (i love my life)

I read a lot of mainstream BTS fics, and around September 2017, I wanted to write.

And this is how my journey of being a Wattpad author began.
