Hi. I'm new here, not necessarily new on other naruto-related forums, so we might pretend this is a rebirth of sorts.

 

I like to think I was an underground, underrated naruto ffnet writer when I actually still wrote the stuff - however, I got involved with toxic shipping wars and the toxicity in the manga itself, and I associated this manga with a really awful time in my life. However, I got the memo that Naruto was ending in a few weeks, and it was like seeing a really terrible (but not all terrible) ex-boyfriend get the death penalty - like Naruto ruined so much for me, but it was also really nice???

 

Anyway, I'd packed away my naruto writing and refused to let anyone know I ever associated with it. To the point where I moved on to other fandoms and I like to think I am a somewhat prolific author in those fandoms (I'm vainglorious, if you haven't clued in), and my ex-boyfriend is dying. Like. A lot of people grew up with this manga and now it's ending, and I needed to get back into this, to rekindle back my love of it instead of my hatred, while I still could.

 

NaruSaku was my first real love in fandom, even if I'd initially shipped SasuSaku and multishipped for fun, when it comes down to it, NaruSaku is always going to be my favorite.

 

I want this manga to end with NaruSaku, but whether or not it does I really wanted to write for it again.

 

Now, the end of this long diatribe is that I'm a writer - I'm writing NaruSaku rn, and I'd like a beta-reader, preferably someone with experience. Someone I can bounce stuff off of, and edit my isht. I'm hoping to churn out fic before this manga ends.

 

It's sad because a lot of writers for NaruSaku disappeared or never updated again, and I don't want to be one of those writers. Fandom has been so dead (at least in the ffnet category) and it's so hard to find recent, updated fic, and instead of whining about it I'd like to contribute.

 

So, if anyone could help me out...

 

The story I'm writing is meant to be a surprised, it deals with a lot of mature-coming-of-age themes. By this I do not mean rape or anything awful enough to be used as a plot device, there is no rape in this story. This is imply a long one-shot juggling a lot of complicated feelings. I can't really say much more, haven't decided whether it's T or M, but we'll see should anyone be so kind as to get in touch.

 

I hope I've posted this in the appropriate place.
