Prologue
I would first of all like to thank all of those who have been with me since the beginning of this story. You have been more than patient with me and I appreciate it. I really can't express my feelings of gratitude. As an amateur author, I sometimes can't handle things or work out my issues in a timely manner. Thank goodness I don't do this for a profession… though I do desire to publish one day… like that will ever happen.
As for why I decided to start over, I explained a little bit in my Author Notes, but probably not enough. I have a bad habit of leaving a story for a little bit and then rediscovering it later. I go back and reread it to see where I left off and find that it's not what I wanted to write originally. I know that I can do better and provide a better reading experience for my readers. I have had nothing but positive reviews for the previous version of this story, but I still felt that it was going nowhere and couldn't continue on with it. It was starting to wrap around itself and choke the life out of the original plot I had started. I felt it was best to start fresh. It pains me to see when a story loses itself. I only have myself to blame though.
I just want to say I'm sorry and understand if people don't give me a second chance, but I want write this story the way it deserves to be written. I want to write story that you guys will love and find entertainment in. I want to produce something that I can be proud of. I want something that can lead into something much bigger. I'm not asking for perfection. I'm asking myself to commit to my ideas. I'm asking myself to commit to my loyal readers that have been there with their support and kind words. I'm asking for a second chance and hope that you will give it to me. Thank you.
Sincerely,
DuskStarDragon
