i don't know what exactly in your writing would make you feel cringe about it but for what it's worth i think the outlandishness (used extremely positively i just cant think of a better word rn) of your art is a big part of the appeal, the hyperspecificness of your headcanons and AUs is very unique and there is obviously a lot of love and care and passion put into it that even tho i dont know much if at all about the source material it's still very interesting and fun to read
(also im a big AU fan we should go back to making hyperspecific AUs for our favs people arent doing it as much and it makes me sad ur doing the lord's work here)

Aw thank you, that's very sweet of you 💜 I'm always glad to share my Outlandish ideas, and I'm happy it can connect with people and make people see my Concepts and Connections I am making XD

I think when it comes to "cringe" that's just how I sort of feel about the act of Creative Writing in general, it's not something I feel comes very naturally to me as a form of expression (although I've worked On It at various points in my life), as you can see I'm much more expressive I feel with my pictures. A series of Funny Expressions I feel can capture my Feelings about things much more concisely. However, writing is great for condensing and communicating Information more efficiently, so I admire those who are skilled at conjuring emotions and specific feelings with words. I think it feels a lot more "direct" to put things into words, whether desires or fictional-desires and that feels very Revealing to me in a way that drawing I feel isn't always. (Also, it's a humbling experience I think bc when reading I tend to have specific standards I like in prose that I find harder to tolerate when things debate a bit from that, vs wit drawing I often appreciate different or beginner art styles etc just as well if not better. So that often makes "producing" words difficult ...)

All this is to say, all creative work takes practice and willingness to be a Poster of some sort X''D anyways, I'll take this ask as a sign to try and finish my goofy fanfictions
