Choosing to not write romance
I have been writing my novel, which is more a coming of age character-driven story. With themes of agency, trauma and systems. It's not what wattpad pushes but it's the first thing that I've written. Am I fooling myself by even trying? It's been almost 2 months. I am 20 chapters in. I have 1 engaged reader 😭😂.
I also started writing a zuko fanfic. And in the last week have gotten 3 readers more than my serious story.
I feel like I've wasted my time, honestly.
Should I just go with what works?
