This Is So Embarrassing...

I made Bob Bryar a paedophile and what makes it worse is that the story was over sixty chapters long with a cliché name (My Chemical School) and had two sequels (My Way Home Is Through You and Die Romanic)

Also, I once wrote a Ray Toro // James Dewees drabbles (which is still up). It's not that it's a bad story, it's just the paring and having met James a couple of months ago, I can't help but blush because I know he's too straight to be gay

I used to write a bunch of poems in 7th grade that were just...awful. They at least rhymed, but they were all about me liking this one guy and him not even knowing I exist. Absolutely terrible.

Basically everything I used to write on Quizilla is extremely embarrassing. I remember several Harry Potter fanfics that were horribly cliche, a Rupert Grint fanfiction, and this random vampire story that made no sense that I gave up on halfway through the sequel.

The first four stories I wrote on here are also pretty embarrassing. I used to incorporate lines from my favorite books into my stories because I saw someone on Quizilla do it and I thought it was okay. In one story I had it set in New York but made the characters go to a supermarket chain that they don't have up north, because I didn't realize that Publix doesn't exist everywhere. In my A7X fanfiction, they get signed to a record deal twice--I still don't know how I didn't notice that. I wrote about half of the story, took it down, and put it back up a while later, and I guess I didn't bother to read through the first half before continuing. The sad thing is that no one ever said anything about it if they noticed.

I deleted my old Quizilla stuff, but now I've started keeping everything so I can look back and say "Oh, well at least now I don't suck as much as I did then."

Everything I wrote before I joined Mibba. About half of them were High School Musical fanfics. I deleted them about a month ago from my computer.

Oh, good lord.

All the stuff I wrote back when I was obsessed with Quizilla. I seriously have stacks upon stacks of notebooks and little journals that are filled with horrible fan-fics (mostly MCR, but I threw in a little AFI, Green Day and The Used in there). Every single stereotype and cliché that you can think of is used. My writing has improved sooo much since then, but I'm just amazed at how horribly bad they are. Just thank God that I never ended up actually posting them online.

Also, there's this one fanfic that my friend Amy and I co-wrote (well, she wrote most of it, I just provided ideas when she was stuck and thought of all the ~plot twists~). It was an AFI fic called Love On the Coast (and it took place in London so that made no sense at all WTF), and it was a blatant self-insert, and it was just...so fucking ridiculous. The narration was lame, the drama was just completely stupid and so unrealistic, and it was just SO BAD, OMG. We wrote it when we were...fourteen, I think? And the worst part? We actually thought it was good.

We actually read the whole thing awhile go (it was never finished) and we died laughing. Seriously, it was the most hilarious thing ever. She still has the big ass notebook we wrote it in. Which is exactly why I haven't thrown away the bazillion notebooks I have in my room. They're fun to read when I'm bored or need a good laugh. And if I'm ever having a bad day and think, "God, my writing totally sucks," all I have to do is read one of my old stories and I feel way better about myself.

Everything I wrote before getting on Mibba.

minion.:

My very first fanfic.
It was based on something I saw on the website Neopets.com, and it was awesome. In that kind of disgustingly awful way.



I think I might have been 11 or 12 at the time.

Funny you should mention Neopets. I started a fancomic of sorts about them. My artwork was actually pretty decent, but the story and dialogue could probably have been much better. Also, just neopets; c'mon! Whenever I look back on it I can't decide if I want to somehow finish it for what it is worth (it had its moments, I suppose and the drawing for it was fun) or bury it in shame.

My most embarrassing story was this slash-fic I wrote back when I used Quizilla. I wrote it in late 2006 or early 2007 and totally didn't know what I was doing. I went back last year to the account and couldn't even get through the first "chapter" without hitting myself in the face and saying "What the HELL was I on?"
I now don't claim any of the stories I wrote back then. I can't. I'm so embarrassed by my lack of knowledge and the utter lack of talent.

The Color Abi Fazzi:

Also, I once wrote a Ray Toro // James Dewees drabbles (which is still up). It's not that it's a bad story, it's just the paring and having met James a couple of months ago, I can't help but blush because I know he's too straight to be gay

I see what you mean with this too. I even said one day that if I didn't quit meeting the guys in MCS I'd have to stop writing about them. Everytime I meet a band member that I write about it's just so awkward when I try to go back to writing about them. I don't write much band-fanfiction for the next month or so after a show usually. (not that I'm complaining of course. I'd much rather meet band members than write band fanfics)

Oh, and my first ever fanfic. I made one of the main guy's ex a psychopath in a bad attempt to justify his drunken cheating on her, the other main guy was way too overemotional, and there was too much (unrealistic) drama.

Now that I think about it, there's also some failed Degrassi fanfics I'm not too proud of deep in my resume.

In sixth grade I was all into Fall Out Boy and decided to write a short-lived fanfic called Role Model. It involved this fifth grader, Eric, who had crappy foster parents and a suicidal older sister, and all he did was whine. Every other freakin' paragraph was lyrics from a FOB song. At one point Eric finds out Pete Wentz is his uncle and then Joe dies and yeah. I posted it first on Fanart-Central, then on Quizilla, but I don't think it caught on on Quizilla. (Lord, I hope not.)

Somebody actually flat out told me, "No offense, but that's the worst story I've ever read..." and it made me cry and then I deleted it.

The old, unedited version of ATSOHP makes me cry D:
Oh, and someone mentioning vampires made me think of one I attempted to write the end of my freshman year when I was all depressed and emo and stupid It was honestly like, my own version of Twilight, except the vampires didn't sparkle. It's honestly the worst thing ever ><

My most embarrassing story was also a vampire story. I hated it because I sounded like a 13 year old, which is probably how old I really was when I started it. I just deleted it today, and I am so relieved.

My first slash was My Best Friend's Love. It ended up getting deleted for some careless mistake on my part. But I am actually relieved that it did. I did not like it, and the story-line was completely messed up. I am thinking of rewriting it, but I will make it better. :]

My most embarrassing fic was my first 'trilogy' a fanfic about Simple Plan...it was so cliche and horrible...the chick character cut herself and hated her father and the guys happened to move in next door to her and she fell in love with Pierre even though she was like 17 and he was 25 and...ugh...yeah it was really short if you go by my standards now...the whole fic was like 12 pages long in Word.

Most of the stuff I wrote before joining mibba, some of my really cliche stories, most of the stories I wrote way back when I first joined mibba that had really not so good romantic scenes...

Siriano;:

Um... yeah.

Anything that I'm embarrased of has been deleted and the experience of reading it had been wiped from everyone's minds.

This basically sums up my feelings on the matter.

Although, to be honest, I'm still not terribly fond of my writing. I still think "oh my god I actually wrote that?" about stuff I even wrote last year, so....

Pretty much anything I wrote last year and before that. I don't even think I deserved to be called a writer back then.

Most embarassing thing every?

Well, I'd have to say some parts of the series I am writing now The Life of an Alchemist. I read it over and I see how many cheesy moments and how horrible the fight scenes are, it makes me super sad.

I just think, who are those four that subscribed? Does the cheesiness not hit them?

Like everyone, basically everything I've ever written on Quizilla. I used to absolutely love that website- but.. I grew up. And improved in writing (or at least I hope I did). I remember one WWE John Cena fan-fic I had called, seriously, The Real Ladies Killer ::dead: don't laugh at me. It was a total self-insertion story, Mary Sue, cliche, everything. You know how people write parodies on these kind of sites? Yeah... That story could have inspired a shit load of parodies.

Also, I think, whenever I stop writing for even a few weeks or months, I'm horrible when I try it again. Those are probably my worst pieces, just because I'm so rusty. I have these Travie McCoy fanfics on this site that got pretty good feedback, but they are not my best work. I wrote those stories like, after a year off of writing. I still got love for them though <3

Edit: back to the John Cena story, I was switching tenses and POVs like Crazy. One second it would be "I" and the next, it would be "you". So bad.

My very first story. Nothing Rhymes With Circus. It was PATD based, and at the time I thought it was amazing, but now I can't believe that so many people read the damn thing and liked it. I mean, it started out incredibly cliche in my opinion. You know, journalist touring with them and all. Although it did have great twists and such.

It's not that the idea was terrible, just the writing. It was shocking! And I know, because I was forced to edit the entire thing for my friend Sophie who threatened to kill herself if I didn't give her a copy of NRWC and finish the sequel when I told her I deleted it.
