I want to actually finish a story of mine for once. Full disclosure: I've been writing since I was five and I still have never gotten a story I've planned an ending for,
to that ending. It's my eternal curse as someone with ADHD and a naturally low attention span.
Actually, my short story,
Terror in Ryokan, was planned to go on much longer - spanning multiple arcs that would culminate to a completely different ending that wrapped up all the mysteries, but I never got there and decided to cut it short
But to directly address the topic, I suppose I just... want people to know me? I wouldn't be so presumptuous as to say "I want to be famous", but I'd like it if I came up in people's conversations now and again. More than just being a name though, I want people to know me as a great writer. I want to make people cry and laugh and get angry and break out in huge smiles. One of my favorite things to do is watch people's reactions as they read the things I write, and also read what people have to say about my writing; everything from the tiniest comment to a furious complaint. As long as I can feel that the person read my story with genuine feelings, I seriously can't stop smiling while I read their words.
Oh, and while this is pretty minor by comparison, a really big dream of mine is to see a TVTropes page about Micah Ever After. But I know it needs to get quite a bit further before I should even hope for it, so I'm happy to leave it as a "maybe one day" sort of dream. Mainly, I just want to become someone who is recognized by lots of people.
...Though preferably for being a kind and optimistic person that takes great care with their plot and characters, rather than an edgy, lazy, inconsistent writer that puts gruesome murder in all their stories. Currently working on that front.
