This is an Author's Note. Not a new chapter but simply an update on the status of this story. : (


Hey guys. So sorry I haven't updated in so long. As much as I appreciate constructive criticism, respect the views of others and ignore the downright negative ones, this time I simply can't help but to let it get to me. I'm so very sorry, as much as I was excited to write this, not to mention all the ideas I had planned for it, i still can't get past the harsh opinions of some... really just one in particular... I sketched out a plot line and had a rough outline of events for the first three chapters of this story before I even published it. (keep in mind i write all my stuff on the go though. i just have certain guidelines i follow before actually sitting down to create a new chap. it's not like i have anything complete that i keep hidden from you. i develop chaps as they come to mind) But, Now I'm stuck on what to do next.

I know it's stupid, but it really only does take just one review to blunt the enthusiasm to write new material. It's like breaking off the on-switch to a lamp in a dark room. Again, this is so very idiotic of me, usually I just keep pushing on with a story, even if I do end up with writer's block along the way. I'm trying my best to clear my mind and get over it, I understand where that person's coming from, I'd hate to be a cliché, I write my stories with the intent on being different. I came to write on this website for fun, not to listen to someone's BS. If you don't like what I write, then just simply stop reading it. You don't have to bitch up a storm to do it. That certainly doesn't make you self-righteous nor does it make the other person chipper that you're bashing their work... err, i'm swaying off base. what I'm trying to say is this:

Just hang in there, I love all the support from the people that actually do like this story and have expressed the need for it to continue. But we are all human, which means we are vulnerable and capable of hurt. Sigh... It's not their fault for their true honesty nor are they really the cause or blame for why I'm deciding to stop. I am NOT doing this for them. I PROMISE you guys this, I WILL continue this story. I just want to write it without the a taste of bitter nipping between the paragraphs. I still do want to finish this, but for the time being, it's ON HOLD until the writer's block goes away and I can get back into it. I'd hate to write something where my heart's just not in it while my mind is still stuck on that one opinion. I just thought I'd let you know I resent my discouragement, but the fact of the matter is: I don't feel inspired right now for "Thirst". I hope you understand.

i am in NO way giving up. i don't mean to come off as moody, I just write when i'm feeling passionate. i don't mean to bother you guys with all my insecurities. but i am still new at writing. i still have a lot to learn, one being dealing with negativity that induces writer's block. I'm also working on 9 different projects at the moment between both accounts, plus I actually have a real life, so at this point I'm realizing I may have bitten off more than I can chew. Patience and time is all that I ask of you while i sort everything out.

i'm just... taking a break.

again, i'm sorry.
