Hey to everyone who's stumbled across my hopefully not-that-boring profile! I'm The Hidden Library, but you can call me Libra (even though I'm an Aquarius).
I have accounts for Wattpad and Archive of Our Own, if you're interested, but I literally just have the same things I have here (and by that I mean my fanfic, just with different Author's Notes). My usernames are da_fab_bookworm and The1WhoReads respectively. I have more fics on my Ao3, btw. I now consider it my main account.
Things I Like To Do:
-I love reading
-I adore reading
-I live for reading (Just ask, and I'll give you a recommendation)
-I love to write (It's just so relaxing and great! You should try it sometime, not for anyone else but for you)
-I love listening to music (I don't have a favorite type of music, I just listen to songs I like. I love almost all the songs of The Score, so check them out!)
-I like to crochet and sew (I crochet more than I sew, and it's very relaxing to crochet while watching a movie or listening to music or thinking about stuff)
-I've really gotten into drawing these past couple years! (I especially like making fanart, even fanart for fanfics!)
I'm pretty sure that there's more, so I'll update my profile when I remember!
Fun Facts:
-I only Favorite stories that I intend to/like to reread.
-When the story I'm following is finished I take it off my list 'cause it's done. But if I like it and would like to reread, I save it to Favorites.
-I have like a hundred WIPs and though I try to finish things, I just keep getting more ideas. The cycle never stops. -_-'
My Fanfiction Pet Peeves:
-Very VERY Recycled plot that has the LITERAL same lines, reactions, actions, etc. (Hint hint, NextGen time travel back to the summer before Harry's fifth year) I'm ok with the kind of recycled ideas that get explored differently, not word for word like I mentioned.
-When a really, REALLY good fanfic gets discontinued. I KNOW that life happens, but most of them have, like, been abandoned for YEARS and it just makes me sad. However, I understand why they don't get update, I'm just saying that these stories are so good that the world would be a better place if they were continued.
-I really don't like it when a story has very bad grammar. I mean, I know that everybody's bound to make a mistake or two, but the ones I'm talking about have a LOT, and I mean a LOT of grammar mistakes and spelling. Is it that hard to just proof-read your chapter one time before submitting, and fixing most of the mistakes? I understand if there are still some mistakes, but at least try to proof-read and don't just go with whatever you have!
-I immediately X out of the fic if the formatting is in a huge paragraph, or if it's just really REALLY confused to look at and read. If somebody is talking, in most cases you're supposed to enter. Start a new paragraph. Please.
Something Important to Note (4/8/2021):
First of all, my first fanfic is not that good. I'm not going to be editing it though because it's my first fanfic and I want to look back and think, "Wow, this is bad. Thankfully I improved."
Moving on, while I have a LOT of fanfic ideas, I'm not going to be writing them or any fanfics until I think I'm ready. I'm going to be practicing writing, then come back when I have something that's good.
Anyhoo, that's all I wanted to say. So I'll be only reading on this account until, well, idk. (And speaking of reading, definitely check out The Carnivorous Muffin's fanfics, specifically the one being turned into an original book! [can't wait for that to happen] ) -- Sadly she has deleted her ffn account, so if you want to check her out, do so on Ao3
Yo, I'm Back (1/26/2023)
It's kind of funny that after 2 years of barely writing anything, I now write constantly, even if I never seem to finish anything haha
