My Failings as a Writer

I didn't want to find another picture and this was already on the blog. Plus, it's accurate...

Because it's one in the morning and I feel like it, I am going to compile a list of my failings as a writer. I am trying to improve these things, but it's hard. Just think of this as a self-reflection post for my own benefit.

1. Difficulty using proper tenses.
2. Difficulty describing proper emotions.
3. Overuse of curse words.
4. Difficulty understanding characters.
5. Dating my fics by throwing in references to current events and pop culture. 
6. Making every parent terrible.
7. Chapters Fourteen and Fifteen of the Game of Life.
8. Under-developing characters.
9. Not understanding how actual human relationships work.
10. The beginning of Chapter Eighteen of the Game of Life.
11. Not understanding how the actual real world works.
12. Basic spelling and grammar fails.
13. That thing I thought I posted as a blog post but actually uploaded to fanfiction.net.
14. That Hi no Nami one-shot.
15. The fishsticks joke in the Death Note fanfic. (Still getting questions about that.)
16. Inside jokes.
17. Creating too many characters
18. Being too lazy to correct my mistakes.
