Day 10: Create a fanwork.

My gut reaction to any sort of creative challenge is to write fiction for it. But coming off a very long period of a muddled relationship with writing and creative hobbies in general, I'd like to do something out of that vein but in the same realm. Rather than dedicating myself to writing a fic (because I'll be doing that whether or not someone challenges me to), I've decided to write a short meta essay that's been fluttering around my mind for a while now.

I don't know exactly when I'll get round to it, but I'll leave this link here so that when I do finish it, people can follow to it through this post should they want to.

I've been wanting to analyse a particular scene from the manga Sasameki Koto for ages; it's an emotional catharsis scene, one where we see a character who's been holding in their pain for a long time suddenly and violently let it out. I empathised with them so strongly, and realised that I related on a level that I very rarely do with scenes like that, if ever. It clicked with something in my heart. So I'm determined to give it it's due.
