the origin of s!mp_030

I originally created this account for fangirling over certain characters; Hannibal Lecter, Will Graham, Thomas Shelby, all the men in AoT, you name it. But after watching Sherlock and seeing how John's therapist recommended writing blogs to him, I was intrigued. And it worked for me. An invisible weight was lifted from my shoulders whenever I posted a blog about anything that happened to me. Whether it be something grim, happy, exciting, or just documenting how I felt and why at that moment. It was...freeing. Of course, the more I posted, the more personal my topics got until I couldn't risk having a username that was too close to my real one. I had to throw anyone I knew off (if there were any pft) if ever they noticed similarities between myself and this account.

Thus, s!mp_030 was born. I have never been more proud of such an abominable username in my lifetime. I thought I had done worse but I had more up my sleeve apparently. As many social media accounts like to have in their bios, "if you know me, no you don't", or something along the lines of that. In all seriousness though, writing this blog has been a complete and utter blessing. I never knew writing could become something more than a hobby for me. Now, it's becoming more and more important in my life. More than ever before.

Anyhow, I'm off to read where I left off in some fanfic. Ciao.
