I am new to this fandom, relatively speaking. I watched Sherlock over last summer. I started writing fanfic in August. This community has become a home to me, the love and encouragement I’ve found here have made me a better writer and even inspired me to change my major. I’m mortified by what happened, but it’s not going to make me stop writing, and I dearly hope it doesn’t make other people stop either. There will always be a place for us. Any writing (or drawing) is creating and it is good.
