Hey guys, it's me, back from the hole I've been putting myself on for so long. The truth is that I think my writing is "broken" somehow and I don't know how else to explain this.
All my life, all I've ever wanted was to become a published author, I think books really can be a way of experiencing so many different things at once and it's wonderful. So, naturally, when I first got into kpop, I created an Instagram account to write oneshots and suddenly, my life changed. I wrote one oneshot every day for more than a year and I've never felt more inspired or creative as I did back then. Still, I was just some highschool girl trying to have an outlet for her creativity, I didn't know much about life and I don't think I do after five years, but I knew I had to write a story that was bigger than a oneshot. So, I created this wattpad account and I started working on "Bully". Day and night my life was all about "Bully" - I went to school and wrote chapters during classes on paper, uploaded them to wattpad on breaks to then revise later before I published them when I got back home and after I would go back to plotting the chapter I would write the following day. Writing was my life and it consumed me, I don't know who I am without this part of myself.
Then university started and I suddenly became a very busy law student with no time to actually write anything so I disappeared from the face of the Earth. I hate goodbyes, so I kept delaying it untill eventually I came to terms with the fact that it was over.
Still, don't believe I haven't thought about writing, there isn't a day that hasn't gone by where I haven't done it. But when it comes to writing fanfiction I guess it's easier because most characters are already created - as they are real people, it's easier to "know them" and just follow their lead. To create a new set of characters entirely is... challenging and very scary to say the least.
