Fanfiction Struggles

I think I’m in hell because I’ve reached yet another dilemma concerning a GIANT DabiHawks fanfic I’m writing when I haven’t even finished figuring out the last one.

See, I have a whole AU where Hawks made a friend during Commission training who became like a pseudo older sister to him who died essentially saving his life and the temptation to add that headcanon to this sort of fix-it AU I’m writing is so tempting like I am metaphorically SALIVATING over the idea. But then I’d have to make a bunch of new decisions that would heavily impact ones I’m already struggling with… grrrrr

It’s frustrating. I’m frustrated. Why can’t writing be easy for once? Smh

Sigh why is plot so hard 😔

I want to write at least a little bit every day in December so I’ve decided to keep a log and post it here to keep myself accountable! I’ll list whether it’s a fic or original, what it’s about, and a few of my thoughts about each project. posted weekly, I think :)

“But my writing’s not good like-” Comparison is the thief of joy. Comparison is the thief of joy. Comparison is the thief of joy.

What makes you feel rejuvenated? I certainly feel good after getting a chance to be creative! I hope you have enjoyed episode #25! If you like the comic, please subscribe on Webtoon. I also have a surprise this week -- my Ko-Fi membership has gone down from $5 to $3! Wow, what a deal! You can get early access to new comics every single week and get to view them a week earlier than anyone else. 👏

Me: I've had five fanfic ideas (with more surely on the way) in the last five minutes...

My brain: So?

Me: I'm not afraid to knock myself out bitch.

I am constantly fighting inner demons when deciding on how I want Danny to look in my au. It genuinely goes in a triangle of Pretty Twink, Gangly Cryptid and Big Boy Danny. They're all forever locked in an eternal battle to see who will come out victorious and be written/typed onto the page.
