spent all of this morning and part of last night rereading old fics and novels i wrote. the more i read them, the more i fall in my love with my own writing again. it's been so HARD writing for months now, and i know it's because i got some critiques from an ex-friend on my last novel that just...didn't have as much enthusiasm as i had hoped. but when i look back at everything i've written in the past 10/11 years, it's so hard to say that all of it's terrible. some of the grammar is off, and the plot doesn't always make sense, but i was oh so clearly having fun with all of it. and i sure as hell didn't give a fuck when writing it, especially some of those more self-indulgent fics

#including several bartseq crossover fics #MAN was there a fun #worldbuilding was wHACK but so fun #and the character banter was *chefs kiss*#and it was before i got to my streak of characters cant stop crying #which has unfortunately plagued me for quite some time #tldr: cringe is dead. my fourteen year old self killed it #with very self indulgent self insert novels and fics #it's also so important to me that almost all of these were written BEFORE i became friends w/ the people i misjudged #my creativity isn't tied to them. it's whacky and fun and can stand on its own #( mage.txt )
