I remember going to my first bible study at church and having some sort of existential crisis because I was struggling to separate reality from all the Greek mythology I was reading on the side.
What a revolutionary idea! From then on, I became deeply attached to my computer, my little fingers learning where the keys were located as I rapidly punched out tens of thousands of words about myself in the Percy Jackson universe.
Self-insert fanfiction was a concept exhausted by internet users and fan clubs that had come and gone long before me. There was even a character archetype to describe the (super) demigod version of myself: a Mary Sue.
