Oh boy, something I can answer with detail! Honestly, the first time I started writing fanfiction was when I was nine, and it wasn’t even fanfiction, it was just me writing a story about going to a hotel with my friends, because hotels were literally heaven to me at that age.
I posted my first fanfiction when I was 13, and it can go die in a fire. I’m only half-joking. It was an utter travesty of a story, and it makes me cry-laugh to this day (no I’m not going to post the link here, I’m not ready to die yet). I’ve been posting fanfics on and off to this day, and after that first one, I’ve been posting mostly Pokémon fanfiction. Started with Trainer fics, and eventually moved onto PMD fanfics, which I’m enjoying way more now. But I’ve been thinking about returning to Trainer fics one day...
I used to write PMD adaptation fics when I first played the games, and since my creativity bank at the age of 16 was about the size of a grapefruit, I followed the plot line VERY closely. I’m doing better now, but back then it was a nightmare thinly disguised as a fun story haha.
Not all of my fanfics were posted, however. About 90% of the stories I wrote are still in notebooks hidden in a dusty drawer, taken out only when I need to make myself feel better about my writing now /s
But in all honesty, writing for myself sometimes is fun, because I get to be as shameless as possible and write blatant Marty Stu in other fandoms that I wouldn’t dare to write in otherwise. So... yeah, I guess that’s how I started, writing all these years until now, and I don’t regret one second of it.
