Remembering old characters from when I first started writing stories can be a massive reminder of how far I’ve come since then. Sure, it can be a little embarrassing at times, with characters with obnoxious traits and designs and stories that take blatantly obvious inspiration from media I enjoyed at the time, but being embarrassed at them is only a sign of progress. At the time, I thought these designs and stories were the most amazing things ever, and looking back, although I may consider them embarrassing now, it was only what I was capable of and inspired by at the time. It is important to let beginners experiment with things, no matter how silly they may be, because the only way to improve is to keep going, and no one is capable of instantly being good at anything.
