Fanfiction, but make it personal

i think ive read a story before about the author enter their own creation. but something about this feels more personal for me as someone who once diligently wrote and even foolishly believed that taking a course on writing would empower me. but now, I'm suffering from a slump who can simply enjoy or critique what other writers can do, which is produce a story.

Here’s what i like about this. first, the ability of characters to develop. indeed, that's like the element of reality. these are supposedly people with their own set of rules in a world we call fiction but a reality for those who exists in it. second, the vital devotion to plot conference cohesiveness. consistency and logic must abide to the premise set in the story and it means being aware of whatever is made known, no matter how little their role might seem to be. third, tension. during the last arc I was tempted to scroll past through the action because I was feeling the tension of whether they'd succeed or not. of course a happy end is a given but I wondered what sacrifices will be made and how it would unfold. and it's so satisfying.

i do wish to get over my slump since it's vital for graduating anyway. but well, that means having to devote myself back to the basics hahaha

    (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜 you can do it bro. I feel the same way you do. I was very fond of writing before. I like to write and draw characters of my novel. But the color of my visions turned black. Sort of a depression. So here am I just reading other people's work and just idk, judging I think. I cant seem to write as I did before. I just accepted it and focused on other things thou I feel empty. Haha
