Sincere for a second. · 10:02am Feb 2nd, 2015
In the bowels of the Struggling Authors group, I found this thread entitled "Words of Encouragement," posted on the eighth of May.
Ok. So I'm new at the whole Fanfic thing, but I had a REALLY good idea for a story. I've written the first chapter, but.... how do I get people to read it? Where would I post it so people could see it. I literally just joined FiMFiction THIS MORNING. This group seems like the kind of people who understand how terrifying it is to be new at this. So, if I could get some advice? I need all the help I can get.
..... Jesus. I've come so far.
This was a new and horrifying thing for me... Not only was I new to this, I was in a REALLY bad place... I had just started concepts for AKG and Birth of the Doctor wasn't even conceived of. I had no followers, my user page was barren. I had one blogpost that I deleted, and I was convinced I was going to fail.
I was convinced I wasn't going to be here for more than three weeks.
Then something weird happened...
People read my story. People started following me. I started talking to more people.
And more and more... This place became part of my life. YOU guys became part of my life.
I can't thank you guys enough. You guys pulled me out of the worst place I have ever been in in my life. And you guys will never know how much you helped me.
You guys saved my life. Inside and outside of Fimfiction. I mean that.
With all of my heart, thank you. I really don't deserve it.
I would just say "Lesbians."
You're welcome, just keep on being fantastic.
*hugs*
Horseapples. From what I can tell, you're a good person, Light. Why wouldn't you deserve it?
You're welcome, Light!
