Strangers or new friends is one thing, and its easy for me to shut them down. My closer friends on the other hand... okay so I took a chance.
I showed my friend a oneshot I wrote like a couple of months ago - idk why I did it; I must have been drunk or it was a lapse in sanity.
She was so lovely about it "I don't really know the characters but that was sweet" after she had read it and all, but I watched her read it infront of me and that was the worst decision I have ever failed to make. I felt like I was about to implode. Those few minutes of me twiddling my thumbs and trying to distract myself with my phone sucked ass.
Don't do what I did - at least tell them to read it later. Hopefully they will forget and not read it at all...
“Oh my god you’re a writer? Can I read your stuff?”
#it was a tmnt fic#where i trans-ed the turtles#should have shown her literally anything else because she is neither a tmmt fan nor trans#but i didnt and thank god my friends r all lovely neurodiverse ppl because if she hadn't been nice about it i would have died right there#i have had quite a few requests to read the fics i write cause i discuss plot so much with a few of my creative friends#its A TRAP#I have a few friends who like Pokémon and I'm like... no#im not gonna show u the Pokémon fic im working on - if u find it on a03 by yourself then great! but other than that its too much pressure#writer problems#authors note: my mum and grandma are well aware i write fanfiction of anime#they have enough sense not to ask after it though#honestly theyre probably just tired of how much i blabber about the comments i recieve cause i always gush to mum when i get a new one
