I'm working on a long fic (particularly, one that's gonna cover a lot of heavy and dark themes) and as somebody who doesn't have much experience with writing but wants to get this idea out there, I'm honestly a bit scared of my writing being seen as bad and coming off as an edgelord. I do all the research I can when covering heavier topics but other than that I'm afraid of coming off as a bad/annoying writer. Should I just... go for it?
Okay, I have a few anons that I have to catch up on that I won’t until next week (I’m moving rn), but I got this one and wanted to answer right away!
Go for it! :)
Not to sound cliche, but who cares? truly, who cares if you come off as an edge lord?? You’re writing it for you not for anyone else and if you want to explore darker themes do it!! No one else’s opinion should matter.
Besides, the only way you get better at writing is if you actually write ♥️ even if it’s “bad,” which btw it won’t be!! you’ve done something a lot of people aren’t willing to do, and that’s putting yourself out there and trying something new. Ppl who don’t write, or even ppl who don’t post their fics, can’t say jack shit because ur braver then them
you also don’t even have to do a shit ton of research! Sometimes too much research takes away the ✨whimsy✨ ppl like to read fanfic to escape, not get unsolicited therapeutic advice, so if you don’t 100% nail a topic, the only people who are going to be mad are the ppl with too much time
Also, srsly, it’s fanfic. You’re not going to get paid for this, there isn’t any grades, u probably aren’t going to get a book deal out of it, so even if it sucks, what’s it going to cost you??? That’s not saying it’s all for nothing, but if you have fun and enjoy why you’re writing, then boom! It’s worth it
People cry and bitch and moan about writing rules 🙄 “oh if you post to ao3 you HAVE to do this!” Or “I won’t read anything unless it has this!” Forget those idiots, there’s literally no rules when it comes to writing! If anyone gives you shit, ur work wasn’t for them in the first place!!
The people who are interested in the type of story ur writing are going to read it no matter what. Everything written resonates with someone from hundreds to a handful, so don’t be shy, throw ur whole amateur self into it.
Write it! Write it! Write it! Write it! Write it! Write it!
Besides I’ll read anything I’m asked, so hey, you’ve already got one reader :)

Writing prompt!:
You are from the royal family, tasked to summon and guide a hero into saving your kingdom, and after years of research and trial and error, you were able to summon a hero from another world.
When the Hero awoke, you begin your welcome speech, they seem to repeat your speech word for word, and when you were finished, they suddenly run backwards, and phase through the castle walls.

(Nooo but listen, idc how they do it on the show, although I kinda trust them, but if Izzy dies, Ed isn't gonna cope... like at all. How can he when he has spent decades with Izzy? When they know each other so well? When Izzy is the only one that has seen him at his worst and still stayed, when—)

There was a reviewer or commenter who said "I always keep track of how many mistakes the protagonist makes and after three, I stop reading the story and never look back".
I think about that person pretty frequently. We read for our own enjoyment, and therefore there's no wrong way to read a book so long as you're enjoying yourself, but ... maybe I don't actually believe that. Maybe there are wrong ways to read a book, and this guy found one.

Two lovers have reincarnated throughout history, destined to find each other and fall in love all over again. There’s also this third guy that reincarnates alongside them… we don’t really know what he does.
