As a kid I thought the story was real because I’ve read so many bad stories on FF.Net before. Now in 2020 after watching speculation videos it’s probably fake. Which is a bummer I really wish it was real.

Lol, I once saw the guy being an obnoxious dick under a Clownfish TV video. When I responded to him, he had the gall to advertise his music to me.

Any chance you're willing to say who it was? My friend and I have been trying to find the dude for days but haven't had any luck. We really wanna know what kind of music this dude would make...

There was a thread here after some chick claimed to be Tara and wrote the story to "find her lost brother." Turns out a fellow farmer was her actual brother and she was a histrionic attention whore.

Finally read it at https://archive.org/details/MyImmortalFanFiction, strange timing for Christmas I know, I wanted to find the archive of the original story and reviews, I didn't, but I found the accounts of the authors, https://www.fanfiction.net/u/999831/XXXbloodyrists666XXX and https://www.fanfiction.net/u/903576/bloodytearz666
Given that they exist, it was pretty obvious it wasn't the attention whore since she could have posted a story or forum post for confirmation, how on earth did anyone believe that? Whoever it was I guess she's pretty embarrassed given that she kept silent. She's real, but not "extremely troubled".
 
I've been wondering about the creator of it, i almost think it's an elaborate "troll"? Unsure. Funny regardless.

It's too on the nose early-2000-goth-teenage-cringe for it not to be a troll. However, it certainly has an interesting history. I'm not sure if the Farms could really add anything that hasn't already been said about it.

However, I did recently get recommended a video by someone who claimed to have received an email from My Immortals author. It's probably BS and the Youtuber is most-likely using it for views but I thought that was worth sharing.

EDIT: I actually sat down and watched the video and the guy that emailed her might be worthy of a thread. TLDR: He's been claiming authorship of My Immortal and rescinding it since 2009. He has over 20 alt accounts were he writes bible fanfiction and fights with himself for attention. Some of his account names overlap with his real name and another one is his stage name. He's a musician who lives in New Zealand and apparently isn't very good at covering up his tracks. [Video][/URL]

My Immortal came out around the time of harassment/troll fics reaching peak creation/consumption in [U]all[/U] fandoms. It wasn't the one that started the fire, the trash was already burning, it was just a pop of accelerate/fuel that caught attention. My tin foil hate refuses it being less than a purposeful troll fic by an older fandom creator pissed off at the 'new kids' coming in. I'm likely wrong, but it's just something about the way it's 'sold' to the audience but also meta aware...

I'm super tired of 'content creators' revisiting it over and over. Internet Historian did a follow up to it with a sonic fanfic and season 8 adlib re-write of GoT, but there's so many other 'good' fictions out there to visit that never get touched on.


Already exists [URL='https://kiwifarms.net/threads/bad-fanfiction-recommendations.61349/']here[/URL]. Please contribute, I've already consumed the recs and doing my best to refrain power leveling with a 'primer/zine'.

If it were made a few years later, I'd be dead certain it was a troll. But given the era it came out in, I think there is a 50/50 shot of it being real. The early and mid-2000's were full of cringe-inducing fanfics written by 13-year old edgelords. It was part of that zeitgeist.

Of course, this was also around the time trollfics started catching on as well and the mid-late 2000's was also when you had guys like Peter Chimera and ShakespeareHemmingway becoming more common. The fact that My Immortal became such an infamous meme that everyone and their mother claims to have written it or know the person who really did means we'll probably never truly know if it was a really good troll or a genuine shitty fanfic writer.

Aren't these two choices a little redundant?
She's real and extremely troubled/a troll.
[/QUOTE]

Why not both a kid and a troll? A preteen troll who wasn't even trying to troll per say. They scrolled through all the junk on fanfiction sites and decided to write the dumbest story possible as a joke to share with friends, it was posted and spread from there. Many classic memes have similar origins.[/Video]
