#but fanfiction is a real medium of literature thats true

[burningvelvet]

once again living vicariously through writers, artists, performers, adventurers, fictional characters, historical figures, and anyone else who has ever done or is doing anything even remotely interesting, etc., because i have no energy to participate in life myself and it's easier to maladaptively daydream my days away instead

#me #and the #tw depression #vent in the tags #ok so #to be fair i have been working on some very angsty fanfiction but like. i shld be working on stuff i cld publish under my real name #but fanfiction is a real medium of literature thats true #like it exists it can be published on ao3 it can make someones day maybe #but society doesnt care or find it impressive & thats my issue - not feeling worthy enough etc #half of me wants visible traditional success in life & the other half doesnt & just wants to do whatever & be chill #so half of me wants to be the next shakespeare (ok not literally but ykwim) & the other half just wants to write fanfiction lmao
