Legends of Nemoreeve
So I've come to a conclusion as to why I don't write Naruto fanfic anymore. I hated the way the series ended and have lost all inspiration to write its characters. Now I know that some of the stories were stopped before the series ended but I didn't like the direction the manga was taking which started my descent into just outright hating the whole thing. I've decided to shift my focus to different series and try my hand at the SYOC genre. So I'll be doing this original story with SYOC, a SYOC RWBY story, and a SYOC Zoids story.
I'll leave my other stories up for a bit before taking them all down so that people won't have to read incomplete work. So this is an Original story of mine that I have had the idea to publish. As for now I'm going to do it as a fanfic. If for any reason in the future I want to publish it, I will reach out to everyone who submitted a character and get permission to use their character for the story as well as give a shout out to them within the story.
