The Fate of my stories | Please Read

Yesterday's blog was a bit of a mess to be honest. I'm an emotional wreck and currently have anxiety spiking higher than ever, and I don't even know why and it all honestly and I just hate everything.

But I was very serious when I said I no longer want to write on AFF. I don't know why, but it just feels...

Maybe I do know why.

It feels like I'm trapped in a pit of BTS , and that's all people who read my stories come for anymore. 90% of the comments I get now are on those rated M fics (mostly with Jimin) asking me to update, when I've stated over and over that I'm taking things slow with those stories now because I just... I can't do it anymore. I don't want to be defined by the ty words that I've put on this site for a group that makes my heart ache thinking about, and that I'll probably never get over with that feeling. But, I just can't get away. It's great that you guys love my writing... but when it gets to this point, it honestly makes you wonder if the people reading who say they love your writing are clouded by the fact that they love the they're reading and the thrill it gives them, and that it has nothing actually to do with my writing.

I don't want to be defined by BTS . I know that's where I gained some of the popularity my stories have from, but... it's not all there is to me, yet it's all that some people seem to see and it's so discouraging to me as a writer. It's why I've struggled so much to continue writing consistently and happily since I posted Fifty Shades of Jimin.

Why do so many of you only look at my fics because of the ? And don't get upset with me saying that, because if that's not the case, not commenting to share how you actually feel and being a silent reader, or commenting to just say "update" or to say "it's hot" doesn't make me think otherwise.

I need a change.

A fresh start, and that's why I no longer want to post on AFF... at least not for a while. Because it makes me feel like I'm suffocating.

I'm really sorry to those of you who do actually enjoy my writing for that sole reason, and not because of the and who's the star in it. I just... can't do it anymore. I'm not opposed to writing , and I'm not opposed to writing BTS, or Jimin, but I hate that feels like one of my only worth's on this site now.

I hope that those of you who do support me for my writing style will support me in decision, and follow me to other places I choose to write on from now on. I'm trying to do it on multiple other platforms, so those of you on here won't be limited to something that you may not have. I know some of you have wattpad, I know some of you have AO3, and I know a lot of you probably have a tumblr, so I'll be posting stuff on there.

As for my mature BTS fics... no I won't stop writing those, but I ask that those of you who follow me when I post them on other sites will be patient as I figure myself out in all of this. I chose to write those stories for the plot, and I personally want to finish them because I love them, but it's going to be a slow ride as I get pass this inner turmoil I've been having about them.

It's going to take me a while to upload everything from this site onto the other sites, but I will do my best to be dilligent about it. Each story will remain on AFF until I have it caught up to the point of where it is here, on those sites, and then I will put in draft mode, in the event that I one day return to sharing on here.

I will be putting more of a focus on Seventeen and NCT fics, but I won't stop writing for BTS. It's just that, right now, Seventeen and NCT is what comes easy to me to write, and what puts my heart at ease and I know that writing more of those will eventually help me to be able to write like I used to, for BTS again as well. I'll make the announcement on each story as I'm going through the process, but for now TDS and T7S are already on Wattpad and AO3, and I've posted TDS to tumblr as well. And The First Shade of Fifty Shades of Jimin is now on Wattpad, as per request from a reader on that site. Links are below. If you guys want to continue reading these stories, then you'll have to follow me on those sites for updates. Below I will list where everything will be. All of it should be going on Wattpad and AO3 and some of it will go on Tumblr, as well.

Fifty Shades of Jimin - Wattpad (link), AO3 (soon)
Am I Wrong? - Wattpad (soon), AO3 (soon)
52. - Wattpad (soon), AO3 (soon)
What Am I To You? - Wattpad (link), AO3 (soon)
Delivery - Wattpad (soon), AO3 (soon), tumblr (soon)

The Devil's Sons - Wattpad (link), AO3 (link), tumblr (link)
The 7th Sense - Wattpad (link), AO3 (link), tumblr (soon)

Links to all of my profiles so you can follow and get updates as to when I post all of these stories are here:
Wattpad - HeadToToesLove (link)
AO3 - kaikumin (link)
Tumblr - kaikumin (link)

I will be taking requests on my tumblr for scenarios and oneshots, for Seventeen, BTS, NCT, Exo, B.A.P and Pentagon (maybe more, feel free to ask and I'll let you know if I can have it done or not). You can submit anonymously, and non-will be rejected unless I am unfamiliar with the group or it's a topic that I'm absolutely against writing (like mpreg). idolxidol is allowed, but not , please. Original character is also allowed, and I don't mind making it a little and , within reason (although I am trying to stray from that a tiny bit to get my head together).

To be honest... it'd just be nice to know I have support in doing this, too, even if you don't plan to follow me on these other sites, well-wishes would be nice cause I'm in a bit of a dark place right now.

Thank you guys for being as understanding as you have been thus far, and I really hope I do get to see you on these other sites (if you follow from here, hmu and I'll follow back)

-Kai

It's okay to feel that way, the only fic I read is The 7th Sense with Mark but I want to know more about your writing. I created this profile to be able to follow your story better, and now I'm going to follow it on wattpad ♡ It's sad to know that several readers (mostly minors) fall headfirst into fanfics , it seems that it's also not pleasant to read about innocent feelings . btw wait for damnseiya in wattpad, it's going to be a struggle to be able to translate for me to read, after all English is not my true language, but for incredible stories it's worth reading the bad translation from google translator ♡

It’s alright to feel that way and honestly, reading your non- stories seem so much better. Thank you for telling us your brave decision. Do what you feels right! We aren’t stopping you!

It's alright to feel that way. I'm super glad you decided to express your feelings to us. Instead of feeling disappointed, I'm actually really happy you're reaching out elsewhere because now people can read your writing more WOOHOO :) My first story of yours was FSOJ but I am reading your other BTS fics! They're all good so far too! It's understandable you need time and by then I'll try to read your other groups' fics ^^

Girl, you do you. Dont worry and just do what makes you happy. I know how writing can ruin the connection/twist the. Connection between u and readers. I use to write but on tumblr and just gave up after being stacked with demands on updates. Writers deserve more love and less demands. Be strong and please be happy 💪

I'm sorry that you this way but I respect all your thoughts and concerns. I might not understand it since I'm not an author but I can fathom how suffocating it is for you. Apart from Fifty shades of Jimin, I haven't read any of your other stories but I will. Like you said, gives some people the feelings, me too personally but I value your writNg for what it is and beyond the fact that it is rated M.

I hope you'll make a comeback when things cool down and I will always look forward to your writings of any genre and style (not so much angst and love triangles, it gives me depression :)

That actually to hear that you're feeling this way, not just bc of one reason.
All those who are "offended", should really take a step back and think about how hard it really is to write a fic. . .and have more than one going at the same time. Just bc you write and they wanna read, doesn't mean you should have to fill their spare time with your own, hard work and effort. It's just not fair.

But in all honesty, you are a really good writer, one of the most decent ones out, as far as I can see and it's saddening to know that people have made you feel this way.

You're right though, you're more than , BTS & Jimin. You are your own person, with your own life, mind, heart and soul, you deserve to have time to yourself, to write whatever you want freely.

I hope you feel better soon or that, posting on different sites will relieve you of stress or decrease your anxiety, I really do.
I hope that anything you do is for the best, for yourself!

It to know that you're having a bit of a tough time --sounds like in rl, but here also.

Be strong ay, do something that makes you feel lighter, more enthusiastic. Do something for YOU!

Love and light to you♡♡

Honestly I'm really sorry to hear that you've been feeling that way :( The first fanfic that I read from you was "Fifty Shades of Jimin" and when I read it, I appreciated the deep plot that was the story. Yes the few chapters with were a bonus, but I would have enjoyed it just as much if they didn't have any in it. I really do appreciate your writing style and ideas and I support the decisions you're making right now. I understand that you're having a rough time, but I hope you know that there are fans like me who enjoy your writing because it is your writing :) I'm sure people would agree with me if I said that you could write whatever content you want and we'd still read and enjoy it because we enjoy your ideas and writing. I hope everything will be okay for you as time passes, we're here supporting you~ <3

Hi Authornim. I know exactly how you feel. i wrote stories that had a lot of , and it got a little... mentally exhausting. If i may speak for myself, Although makes a story a bit more interesting, too much of it without a story line makes it extremely boring. Especially for stories over 20 chapters. And that goes for any genre: , angst, fluff. it's super cool at the beginning but, after a while it gets irritating honestly. But that's why I loved your story (50 shades of Jimin). There was a storyline and some just boost it a bit, But i loved the characters and the behind the scenes and the love triangle (made me cry man. Jin didn't deserve it. But i'm reading a story where Jin is an so it's fine). I hope in your new venture will make you happy. I'm looking forward to more of your stories. It's always weird reading about another group, but for you i'll try.

I don't particularly use any of the sites you're posting your stories on from now on, but because I'm interested in The 7th Sense series, I'll give tumblr a go one day.
As for the issue... the thought of being defined by a work of yours in this respect is sort of heart-breaking. Reading how you're not proud of the identity it's seemingly given you is sad, also a bit of an eye-opener to readers to not do this to authors. I haven't touched your other stories (I actually only found you via The 7th Sense), but all the best with restoring your identity. And please, I always tell writers this: write for yourself. It shouldn't be as stressful as it is for you right now.
All the best!
