Never be pressured to create.
I need to say this because it’s been bugging me. I see a lot of people lately who feel as though they cannot be a part of a fandom unless they contribute to it through art, music, etc. Guys, this is the farthest thing from the truth.
People seem to have this notion that if you want to be in this fandom, you must create for it. You MUST be an artist or a musician or a writer or what have you, otherwise you’re not a part of the fandom. They think it’s like an entry fee or something.
If you do not enjoy what it is you do or feel that you MUST contribute for the sake of being considered a part of this fandom, you’re going to be a miserable wreck. If you feel a distinct passion to create from just being a member of this fandom, then go for it. Love what you do and put your all in to it, ESPECIALLY if it inspires you. However, to create simply because you feel you MUST create for the sake of being a “somebody” will end up destroy you. It doesn’t take an artist to appreciate art. Without people to appreciate art, the artist and their craft are nothing. Never forget that. The most important part of any fandom are the people who support eachother. You don’t NEED to create. You don’t need to impress anyone. The people you admire are nothing without what you’ve given them. If anything, you are more important than any of those people because without you, they’d be nothing.
Create if you feel inspired to do so. Love your craft with all your being. However, never feel pressured as though you MUST create or contribute to be somebody. You’re way more important than you realize.
