I’m writing a story about a biracial superhero. He’s in his 20s, and his dad is a extremely wealthy Black businessman. His mom is Japanese, and she comes from a wealthy family. I don’t want to give too much away, but there is something about his family’s history that resurfaces, and it connects to his powers. He is basically trying to find out what it is. My friend says the story is stupid and no one would want to read it.
Always give up. Never persevere. Lol jk obviously you should write it!
If it sucks who cares? And if it doesn’t then hell ya brother! Besides, writing is like any other skill in that it takes practice. So do it.
Listen here you stupid moron.
Do whatever the fuck you want with your life (provided you don’t hurt anybody.).
If you want to write a book about something, do your homework, talk to whoever you think you should but in the end, do only what YOU think will make you happy.
There are mfs out there who send in AI slop to scientific journals and still get published & cited.
Stan-fucking-lee introduced us to a bunch of superheroes. He did what he loved well before anybody took notice. You do what you love, regardless of what your stupid friend says. Your friend should warn of dangers, yes. But your friend should be by your side to hold you, in case you fail.
Just one thing, always endeavour to be the best at what you do. If you want to bake cookies, be the best cookie chef of your time. If you want to suck ass, be the best at sucking ass. If you want to be the best superhero writer, be the fucking best superhero writer.
Now stop wasting your time listening to dim-wits on the internet like myself and go work on your dreams.You posted the same thing last time with no ethnicities. Just make it if you want to.
“Friend”. You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Well I can say with some certainty that no matter what your idea is, something stupider has made it to print in Marvel or DC probably both.
On top of that, I’ve found that people tend to be more critical of things they perceive as amateur efforts, even if the quality is the same. If you watched a movie scene by an incompetent director and catch a mistake you’ll probably be derisive, but put the same mistake in a movie by a renowned director you’ll probably wonder if it isn’t intentional and serves some artistic purpose and might not react as negatively even if it is genuinely a mistake.
For your issue what I would say is that you should consider what you want people to find compelling in your story and then ask yourself if this detail serves that vision. Its possible your friend is reacting to something undercutting the draw of your work, but it is just as possible they just aren’t getting it. Seek more opinions if you want to understand how others are reading it, but ultimately you have to trust your vision.
Who are you writing it for? Are you writing it for other people, or because you enjoy it and want to do it? If the former, I’m sure there’s people out there who would read it, even if your friend is a bit of a dick. If the latter, what does it even matter what other people think? If you’re enjoying writing it, it’s time well spent regardless of what happens afterwards.
You should write what you want to write
