Reblog if you think it’s a good way to practice writing.
Reblog if you have made friends because of fanfiction.
My sister called it a waste of time and I want to prove her wrong.
You sister is both wrong and an idiot. 😛
WHAT IS THIS HERESY I HEAR?!
*hugs fanfiction to self*
Fanfictions have many times such beautiful, well crafted and frankly, better stories to tell than mainstream medias. To shy away from that artform is stupidity in my eyes. Talent blooms everywhere – not just in the most hard to reach places like in the limelight, where everyone wants to be. I’d rather do my own thing and let people who like that appreciate it, than conform to the “rules” a publisher might force me to. Fuck that song and dance.
There is a community of people who, for the sheer love of creative writing, do it all for free. Their passion and love for stories is more important to them than fame or being paid. Which also means they provide free entertainment for people who may not be able to afford other forms of entertainment. How is that a waste of time?
