Dollhouse + How I learned to write better
So, for almost a year now I haven't written or published any stories on aff. Not that I stopped writing, although I have had writers block for about a month now, but I was working on more of my original work with original characters. Over the year I have improved my writing so much more and understood what a character actually is. I learned how to give my character a true personality, since I wasn't writing fanfiction so I had to learn how to create my own person without the base. I also learned to write for myself and not the views nor comments. To give myself critical feedback and focus on loving what I'm writing. I experimented with many different genres and although I never published any of my original character works on Wattpad, I am very proud of them. I think they are a million times better than my messy fanfictions that didn't ever make sense. Now I know how to make sense of my plot and build it up. I also started watching many shows(like Hannibal, Andi Mack, Riverdale, Series of Unfortunate Events etc) so I learned about a characters feelings from those too.
Now, I officially think it's time for me to branch back to fanfictions. I think I'm ready to MAKE SENSE in my fanfictions. I don't wanna rush thing and create a beautiful fanfiction that I am proud of and not embarrassed to update(which is legit what happens with all my fanfics). I wanna write for the joy of writing and not the praise. So, I have started this with a story I left off last March called Dollhouse. It's a TFBOYS fanfiction. That reason I want to continue with that one is because the writing style suits what I was writing when I was on my break. That story seems complicated, but it doesn't have many characters so that I will be able to focus on my characters personality and feelings. Surprisingly over the year I wrote a lot of high school au(I know, boring) so I'm really good at it. But I'm getting tired of it so I want to try something more free and out of sorts. The story I am continuing with is actually inspired off of one of my favorite movies, The Corpse Bride, by Tim Borton(I love his art so much). I think I'm ready for this and I want to make this happen and start off slow, not to rush myself. I also wanna focus on high school too but update very so often. Please be patient with me if you are my Nct reader. I have many good things and updates coming for you I promise.
I now officially vow to not start a story until I complete all of my main ones. Someone please hold me back because this is a big thing for someone like me who loves different plots. I want to finish those works that I really admire of mine before I continue more. Thank you.
To start off my journey in this new writing form on aff I have revamped my story Dollhouse. Along with writing a lot I've also made so many new graphics and improved my graphic skills by a million. So here is my transformation(beware it's intense)
Old Graphic New Graphic
YEAAH I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE IS INTENSE.
But anyways please check the story out if you want to and just a big thank you if you read this.
