(THREAD/UPDATE/READ IF YOU WANT)
Unfortunately, the cons of writing would often lead me to counter-productivity and mostly burnout. I gave myself high expectations thinking that I would complete every book, while trying to keep the writing consistent and my readers invested, unknowingly setting myself to a high standard.
At that time, I was already close to reaching my senior year in high school, meaning that I could barely keep up with Wattpad and schoolwork. So I had to temporarily pause my stories and focus working.
I wanted to gift everyone (who were mostly Pilot/FNAF fans) my fanfics/headcannons of Pilot, because I adored the comic so much and there was not that many pages/story to dig deep into.
The creator of Pilot and the FNAF comics (the one with "Vincent" aka Purple guy), Rebornica/Mx. Bones was my favorite artist ever since 2015/Tumblr years. Personally, I loved how they wrote/designed their characters and their backstories to make them look so compelling and likeable. I looked up to them even, like an idol. One of my comfort characters, Vendetta and Artman were my personal favorites. That's why it deeply disappointed me when they were exposed for being a sh*tty and toxic individual.
I was an ignorant, blind, naïve, young Pilot fangirl to even notice because I was busy writing, to the point I was parasitically attached. It hurt me knowing that this person, the same one I adored, that I followed years ago was outted as a terrible person who had nothing but malicious intentions. Eventually, they would completely postpone the entire webseries and rewrite Pilot as a "prequel" to another set of obscure plot-points that didn't make sense finding out about it..
