What I hate about my writing...

I'm one to stick to facts and organization. So when I am writing, I have to write out a timeline of events so I don't get mixed up with what happened when and how much time has passed. I have to pay strict attention to ages and birthdates as well so I don't accidentally age someone.

But the thing I hate most is with my Vampire stories. Everyone is so FREAKING OLD. So when I write I have to keep my stories accurate to that time period and I end up TEN PAGES DEEP IN WIKIPEDIA RESEARCHING WHAT WENT DOWN IN THE QING DYNASTY AND FIGURING OUT WHEN THE WHITE FOLKS STARTED ING SH*T UP.

AND I CAN ONLY USE WIKIPEDIA BECAUSE EVERYTHING ELSE IS TOO CONFUSING AND I HAVE NO BOOKS THAT DETAIL PRE-NORTH/SOUTH KOREAN HISTORY. IT'S THE MOST FRUSTRATING THING EVER. I have like 8 books on China and NOTHING for Korea!!!!

I'm literally sitting in front of my laptop sobbing because I just wanted to know if Joonmyun could be born in 1701 and not be turning eleven years old in the middle of a war okay??

OMG you're so organized!!

I even did the worst math calculation -because I so bad in math- in one of my fictions but really only one or two out of all 70+ noticed it lol...
it was also in a supernatural fiction, I said that the character was 112 yrs old, ten times the human character...

so I got that comment: so human x is 12 -_-
LOL it was hilarious to me but I think you're really doing it hard, you don't have to be accurate cuz readers won't believe you anyways, I mean it's all a fiction and people like me might make your hard work go in vain with their bad statistics and even worst history background XD
