I started a project a while back, around 2018, pouring my heart and soul into it. But by 2019, I made the tough decision to let it go. Even though it was fun, I chose to focus on my own story instead of a fan project. Creating my own stuff makes me happier and more creative. It's a path I believe everyone eventually reaches, a desire to break free and create something deeply personal and uniquely their own.
Creating fan-based projects can be fun, no doubt, but consider it this way – you're essentially building your story on someone else's foundation, someone who already has a dedicated fan base. It made me realize that it might not be entirely right for my creative journey, both from a legal and moral perspective.
