Yes! Thank you!

I feel like everytime I'm writing a story for my 2012 TMNT fanfiction franchise, someone seems to always come along and say "You can't do that because this happened in the series" And that is EXACTLY why I stopped watching the 2012 TMNT series back in 2014! Because if something contradicted my stories in canon, I would get super upset.

Now that I've gotten back into my facfictions, I don't watch the show and follow along. I use my own story arc and built it along the way.

I know I don't put much adult content in my stories, but I do make them more dramatic and continuitious. (Is that a word?)

If there wasn't any creative liberty in this world, then what's the point of getting creative with your stories if you're just writing about something you don't enjoy or can't write about?

Thanks a bunch for making this point, Vic. I think everyone needs to hear something like this. :)
