i don't think my fanfiction is lesser than my original work in terms of quality but i definately think i've neglected improving my ability to create my own stories BECAUSE i've been writing more fanficition than original work since i was a teenager. like there was definately a more even balance of the two when i was in highschool but its only in the last couple of years i've gotten back into writing my own stories for my own characters (such as 'as you like' and 'litter') and its a harder transition than i was expecting, which is embarrassing in a way but also i'm still enjoying it and that's what matters. idk. these aren't vent posts really i'm just dumping all my thoughts in one place. maybe i'm focusing too much on trying to write these massive thought-provoking stories when i should start smaller and work up? i like the idea of that

#i looooved writing short stories in highschool i remember i had an original horror 'anthology' series on my old laptop with a seasonal theme #i'm forever upset i had a hashtag self hate artist moment and deleted all my old work because i thought it was cringe. i'd kill for that ba #i remember i had one original story centred on two characters called timber and clark and i actually recovered that story and rewrote- #the opening about 3 years ago to see how i'd improved and the difference was insane. i was so proud of that. maybe i'll do that again #because i'm 90% sure i didn't deleted it again and its just on my google drive SOMEWHERE #bzzt! is this thing on
