I was lonely and not in a great place in my life in middle school.
Then, I wrote my first story (not on this account), and everybody was incredibly supportive. It made me smile on the inside as I continued to write. Even now, whenever I feel down, I just think of fanfiction for comfort: the nice people, the amazing plot lines, and the increasing fandoms. My father says that I am obsessed with fanfiction, and truthfully, I am. My personal computer broke down (which is why I am not updating), and I am still checking this website in secret. Honestly, fanfiction makes me feel fulfilled inside- happy almost- through the tough times in my life.
Fanfiction is more than a website, it GMH.
I challenge all the fanfiction writers reading this to start a GMH (gives me hope) story too. It is not an official challenge. There is no prize really just fulfillment. We can all read eachothers' GMH stories, and we can restore/reassure everybody's faith in humanity. The length and how often the story is updated does not matter. I will try to favorite and read every one of the GMH stories out there because of me (though I am terrible at reviewing). I just want to make fanfiction a better place, even if this is not technically a fandom (yet!).
