yes and no. the feedback culture of fandom is great. no matter how good you think you are, there's always going to be someone better than you at writing who's likely willing to give you tips. and there's generally always someone you can look up to, whose writing really takes your breath away and becomes something you want to try incorporating into your own writing.

but on the other hand, i feel as if fanfiction in general has a very specific sort of writing style and content that has a tendency to perpetuate itself through almost everyone who writes in fandom. there are a lot of fandom-specific cliche phrases and syntax choices that i don't think constitute good writing--not to mention the focus on a romantic underpinning (if not the main point) that drives the plot of a vast majority of fic. personally, i've found that the longer i was taught by fandom writing, the blinder i became to the drawbacks of fic writing.
