Hey everyone,
I'm not back fully!! Just wanna clear that up!!
I want to say that during my time off, as well as my tentative return, I have had time to reflect on who I am and my identity as a writer.
A few things went down in my online life in early October that I will not be disclosing. These experiences had me questioning my motivations for why I write fanfiction and what I write about.
I'm going to be 18 in 3 months.
I cannot keep going the way I am now if I want to stay online without getting flamed and keep my friends.
I have decided that come the new year, I will no longer be writing smuts.
Smut, and anything sexual, has been a huge part of my online persona. It might just chalk up to teenage hormones, or I could genuinely be hypersexual, I don't know.
I love writing smut, don't get me wrong, but I've realized that not everybody enjoys reading it, and some people even get extremely offended by it.
So, I will no longer be actively writing Beyblade smut out of respect for those around me and the people I wish I could be friends with.
I will try to finish a few of my most completed drafts, but after that, I will NO LONGER be accepting smut requests.
I may have very small innuendos in future fics, such as 'morning after' comfort fics, or silly jokes here and there. But no more full-on smutshots.
I love this fandom; I've been hyperfixated on Beyblade for about seven years now. I don't plan on leaving anytime soon.
So, from March forward, I will no longer accept smut requests. I will NOT be deleting my past smutfics.
Thank you for understanding. I hope I can start to build a better reputation and make new friends to help me grow.
I am not coming back just yet.
