Not all endings are satisfactory; sometimes, life endings aren't satisfactory either.

Not all characters should be liked by the audience; don't write for the response of your readers.

A long adventure doesn't equate to change; sometimes, the protagonist ends up right where they began.

People die with regrets.

Not all antagonists are "bad" people; good and evil isn't so black and white.

People lose motivation; that headstrong protagonist will also want to give up sometimes. They can't fight forever.

A good or evil character doesn't always need a traumatic backstory.

Some genres just aren't as popular as others.

Fiction is fiction; it doesn't have to be ultra-realistic. Write about what you want to.

Your protagonist may look like the villain to your antagonist; your main character isn't the light of everyone's life.

People are hypocrites; some of your characters will be hypocrites, and that's not a bad thing.

Writing is a long process; those fanfic authors that upload three times a week? Yeah, that's not everyone.

Happy writing~
