Hayillem's writings!

Rarity's section

Frank Herbert stole my fate 20 years before I was born, or so I thought when I first read Dune. I remember writing a novel on Wattpad when I was 13, with a shitty plot and uncharismatic characters. It was about a teenager who had precognitive dreams; somehow those visions led to a rebellion, resulting in a war in which the mc's grandpa turned out to be the mastermind of the chaos (???). Hajime Isayama plagiarized my writing too, of course, in 2009 when I was 3.

In general, I started writing at 14, with some notebooks for research and others for song lyrics or poems, but, to be completely honest, I hardly ever finish a journal. I used to publish my "best works" on Amino, and my biggest and proudest achievement was obtaining admin access to a poetry & writing comunity, one post in. It's true that the school and baccalaureate program I attended wanted to encourage our creative minds with writings every week, no matter the language —Spanish, English or more rarely, French.
Starting my teenage years, I always loved making texts, whether academic or not. Writing, similar to any type of discipline, consists in combining originality and playing with technical rules; it's both an art and a field of study, it's a subject of human intervention. Even though I still consider the morning pages a hellbound activity, I would rather die right now than have my existance go undocumented by the one living it.

Being unserious, though I'm not a writer, I can still notice the decline in comprehension skills (literature, emotional, general) in younger generations, including mine, having our attention span and dopamine levels fully deteriorated. For Gen Zs, our damnation was starting reading fanfics and light novels in Wattpad, getting used to short paragraphs, constant action and 90% erotic content. But for Gen Alphas, known for not reading, I genuinely think their salvation might be fandoms and Wattpad.
