Just a little thing I've noticed;

There don't seem to really be a lot of BtoB fanfics around here, to be honest.  I think that BtoB are kind of underrated on this website, despite the fact that they're simply amazing. They're not even my biased group, but I still think they should have more fanfics around here. That's just my opinion, though. After I finish my short Kai fic (which I will be posting tomorrow, by the way), I might make an Ilhoon fanfic. 

Some people on Asianfanfics might not like BtoB, and I completely understand the fact that they just like to write about their biases, I mean anyone could do anything they wanted to on AFF, but in my opinion, writing about someone that you have never written about before and don't know much about could be a new opportunity as a writer and also a new challenge. 

Authors on this website, from what I have noticed so far (since I've only made this today because my friend made me), are really good writers and try really hard. I respect each person on this site; readers, writers, anyone. Just keep doing what you do and always try to improve at the things you think you're not particularly good at. That's what matters most (to me, at least), not the people you write about. 

I know this may sound weird, but I never actually write a story that includes my bias in it. Because of a simple yet stupid reason; I always get overly excited if I write in first person, and if I write in third person I'd feel jealous. Yes, I am that weird. I love my biases too much, and I just - I can't even read fanfics that include my bias, because I feel like he is dating some other girl (lol even though it's only a story). 

You guys just keep working hard at your stories to entertain people, and always take risks on trying new things.

That was all this post was supposed to be about :)

Much love,

I haven't written a story feat Kibum yet. SJ's Kibum. He is my favorite. I have Donghae, Beast, Kikwang, Thunder, Jaejoong, Kris, Luhan, Kwangmin and Youngmin, GD, Minho, Taemin, Kyuhyun, Sungyeol, Myungber... a few originals... Lol. I am comfortable writing in third. However, I am afraid the oc would end up having my quirks and personality if I make him the lead character. Haha!

I haven't started my BlockB fic. But the thing is, I find it hard to write the fanfic version of a certain kpop artist if I haven't done research. I have to at least see them in an interview or variety show. I know it it impossible to capture their true personalities, but I want my version to be as close as to how they project themselves on screen. It boils down to how I perceive them to be.

Also, I do casting. I have a story with ocs first, then before posting it here, I select which kpop artists closely resemble my main oc guys and then feature them in my fics. Lol.

If you click the myungber tag, it is the same people writing as well. And I applaud them. They even hold myungber writing contests just to increase the number of myungber tagged fics. Hehe. Because they too can't force other writers to write about the couple.

Let's hope that Btob fans make fics feat them as well :)

I noticed that too! About BTOB I mean~
One of these days, there needs to be a sudden growth spurt in BTOB fics. I thought of starting one myself, actually. Perhaps later in the future :) Like you said, it does sound like challenge but it can be fun!

Haha, I always end up writing in third person. I don't even know why, maybe it's cause I'm picturing everything like I'm watching a K-drama or something. :P
