If you'll like to be added, just drop me a comment BUT ADD me first.

Otherwise, you're free to put this journal on watch :)

I'm doing the one thing I shouldn't be doing...Well, it really doesn't matter.

Pssshh...

Did you know there are different cockroaches? Well, did you?!

I didn't.

Nasty little buggers.

There you go, life is a classroom and each day you learn something different. No matter whether it's elementary or not.

Sounds cliche. Haha.

So I write fanfiction, no big deal. Have I written an original story? Oh yes, but they're just one-shots or very short stories.

I enjoy writing.

It does not matter whether it's for fun or for school work. I really enjoy writing an essay and just like any other story, I follow the pattern of jotting down ideas/notes. It's just another way of exercising my mind/imagination while keeping everything real. Eh, some would say that's boring, I say it's fun.

Writing is writing to me.

When it comes to fanfiction, I keep in mind that I'm writing for fun. After all, the point of writing a story IMO is to release whatever creativity you have at the moment. I will admit that at the beginning, I was doing it to see a reaction - to see if I could get the attention of a reader. Once I did, I wanted more. Attention by readers means getting reviews.

I really LOVED it.

I then realized (and seen it mentioned before) that writing a fanfiction is not about getting reviews. It's about writing for the fun of it. To develop whatever talent you have, be it the descriptive process or the emotion set in any character.

The point is: Do not write to get reviews - write because you LOVE writing.

Getting any sort of attention is positive and a bonus, not to mention a confidence booster.

Which leads me to another thing.

There will always be people who do not like something for one reason or another. It's an opinion - never take it personally. If it's a critique - the better. That way, you may learn and improve in any future subject. I've seen how people drop off a blatant flame (Someone who just thrashes a story without being reasonable) just to...I really don't know. Either way a flame is not helpful as it involves a blatant disrespect from the reviewer.

Now to cap off this...uh whatever it is I've written...I will always be thankful for the Beta's. Without them, the errors in my writing will go unseen by me.

Something random:
