The name Darkest Knight is the name of my Wattpad account where I read some fanfictions but I also read on Quotev, Fanfiction.net Fictionpress, and AO3. Fanfiction has always been a part of my childhood since I have discovered anime. I know if you watch anime you came across fanfiction as well. People assume that fanfictions are poorly written which is not the case; if anything, most of them are good just not never completed which is also sad. My goal is to read fanfics just so it's not completely deleted and enjoy being in another world. Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/planet-fiction/support
