My friends and I in 6th grade would create what was essentially BTR and 1D fanfiction. It was all handwritten and placed in a special notebook or binder. One of my friends would draw the cover. Each week there would be a new installment of hijinks that we would gobble up during math class. I want to be that girl who wrote with confidence and joy again so badly, and I'm hoping this year I can remember she never disappeared. What I'm saying is, you've written another banger, bestie

That's awesome, fan fiction is my favorite gateway drug!! She is absolutely still there and waiting to take the wheel. Wishing you the best in your journey back to her <3

I used to write and illustrate Super Girl comics with my cousin at church when we were supposed to be listening to the preacher, lol! I think I started writing because it was fun and eventually I realized it helped me process and communicate my thoughts and emotions in a way I couldn't out loud. All of that is still true, but I'm trying to bring some of the fun back, too. <3
