Hi everyone,
How are you? I’m sorry for disappearing on you guys for a minute there (almost like, 3 1/2 years but who’s counting).
When I first started writing BTS fanfiction, I was in a weird stage of my life. COVID was at its height, I had just been laid off (as did many) and had a whole internal struggle trying to figure out who I was supposed to be. When COVID hit, I had just turned 25. Now, I’m a month away from being 30.
5 years makes up for a lot of personal growth and I can say confidently that I’ve matured a lot. My stories from 5 years ago, while I enjoy the concepts, I do feel a lot of the immaturity coming through in my writing.
When I was first getting back into writing, I took a lot of advice from people that frankly, I don’t even talk to anymore and it feels like in a lot of cases, the plot got lost and it stopped feeling like a reflection of me.
The Muse is a story that I am still incredibly passionate about, even a little over 3 years later. It could truly be my pride and joy, and I want you all to love it as much as I do.
This personal revelation has led me to the realization that maybe it’s time that I rewrite my stories, starting with The Muse. While I am eternally grateful and proud of what the story is so far, I can’t help but think it could be better. Instead of writing and listening to advice of what other people think I should do, I’m going to write for myself.
I see all your likes and your comments and your follows, and I eternally appreciate the support. I just hope I can write some stories that will make you want to stick around.
See you soon,
Jay
