A silly story from my creative journey:

I started writing my first fanfiction when I was about 13.

So, I had two short works under my belt, nothing special, just my attempts to learn how to write something coherent and interesting. They even received some recognition from readers (heh, about 20 likes and a couple of comments along the lines of "keep it up").

And at that moment, I thought it was time to write a big story about a sorceress from the Skyrim universe.

I came up with a plan, a concept, and a bunch of interesting (as I thought) solutions that didn't always fit the lore. I loved what I was doing, and I felt inspired by what I was writing. I posted the first two chapters, pouring my naive childish soul into them.

And then a "lore expert" came in and trashed my story, arguing that it couldn't be true, that everything was wrong, and that I should just quit and never pick up a pen or keyboard again. It was so painful, I remember even crying.

So I deleted my story, my account, and stopped writing for three years, thinking it wasn't my thing.

I only picked up writing again when my best friend (at that time) decided she wanted to try writing fanfiction and asked me for advice, and we started co-writing it.

I dove back into imaginary worlds, fantasizing and dreaming again. It's stupid, but life has become easier for me because I'm creating something of my own.

And it's so mind-blowing.

That now, despite the fact that I'm not particularly popular and receive almost no feedback, I still continue to write fanfiction and original stories because it's my thing.

It makes me happier.

So, yes, you should never abandon what you personally enjoy, and don't care about the haters and everyone else.

The main thing is that you're happy.
