First things first, I'd like to state that regular books that are published and sold are typically superior in writing. However there are many aspects of fanfiction that make them a lot more favourable than books. 1. They are free and easily accessible 2. You have greater control over what type of elements you want in the story 3. There's a larger connection between the reader and the characters involved (you've already got to know them from an anime or whatnot) 4. You can cut to the chase with the plot (say your story is about Harry Potter, you don't have to rewrite the happenings in the book) 5. You can speak to the writers while they are

Lying in my room, I cannot ease the thoughts that tease me. They cloud my head with anxiety and I begin to waver my past judgements. Could I have been wrong? Will I make another mistake? I know the answer. I always know the answer to these questions. However, the real question pertains to which answer I want to believe. I am a simple human, an ordinary being.

What to do when you are sad! 1. Look at the sky (my number 1 tip) 2. Exercise!! (It chemically makes you feel happier...and you'll be healthier!) 3. Try drawing something funny... it'll probably be hilarious 4. Comfort another person, like I'm trying to do right now lol 5. Go on vine, I just discovered this week... it's so relatable! Also youtube is great! Just don't go chatting to online randoms, that won't help much.

I'll tell you one thing. Don't listen to anybody who tells you that--they can all mind their own business and evaluate their own lives instead.
