Hello everyone, Professor Pasta here with an announcement, as you probably guessed from the updated summary.
First off, I am indeed retiring from fanfiction writing, at least temporarily. While I am still a fan of the Loud House and watch it regularly, I simply don't have the time to write fanfiction or be truly involved with the fan community. Almost all of my time for the last few months has revolved around work; both my new night shift (which has great pay but longer hours) and the fact that I'm working on starting my own small business to market a device I've invented that has helped with my factory's quality process. While I still love writing and do still hope to make a career of it one day, that day won't be until far off in the future, whereas this invention of mine could potentially start earning me extra money as early as later this year. I'll most likely return to writing fanfiction someday, maybe under the Professor Pasta moniker or a new name entirely. But for now, I have to face facts that I have something more important to dedicate my time to. For the few people out there who enjoyed my stories, I hope you all understand.
Which leads me to my second point: of my two ongoing stories (not counting the Lucy/Rocky anthology) Perchance to Dream is the one that I don't want to see fall into the limbo of dead fanfiction. Though I never got around to writing more of it, I do have basically the entire story outlined, along with pages of notes detailing key story events. So if anyone out there would like to adopt and continue Perchance to Dream, send me a private message.
Oh, and FanBoy-Guest? In regards to the Night Flier, I'm sorry but that story was dead on arrival. I wrote the whole thing in a one-day fever pitch, and as a result of my impatience I failed to think the backstory through properly, meaning a LOT of plot elements simply made little to no sense. If you or anyone else wants to do anything with the concept of Lucy being a vampire superhero (I think there's at least one other story on this site doing that), be my guest.
Thank you all once again for making me feel welcome in this community, and I hope to see you all again some day.
This is Professor Pasta, signing off.
