To all my writers out there, particularly fanfic writers because I am one and I’m feelin this hardcore…

• It’s okay that you haven’t written for a while, you can take breaks.
• You can start writing again whenever you want, you don’t need an excuse.
• If you would still like an excuse, here it is: I want you to start again, you should totally do it.
• It’s ok if you’re out of practice, you’ll pick up traction again.
• We’re all learners and its good to have role models, but try to be better than the writer were before, and try less to be ‘as good as’ someone else.
• It’s alright to abandon a piece if you have no enthusiasm or passion left for it.
• It’s okay to be needlessly dramatic.
• It’s okay to be needlessly ridiculous.
• Write the crackfic, write the rarepair, or write the popular pair. Write what you want to write.
• Yes someone has probably written this scene before.
• Write it anyway if you want to write it.
• Yeah that trope has probably been done a million times.
• Use it anyway if you want to use it.
• Probably there are people who are tired of reading about that AU.
• Write it anyway, they don’t have to read it.
• Respect your audience, but don’t let other people dictate what you create.
• Reblog your own work. Be proud of it. You deserve to pat yourself on the back.
• I’m proud of you, you’re doing great.
• Keep writing, keep making stuff. People will care. 
• Future you will especially care.
