Chapter Four - It Happened Again
It's happened again, guys. Any of you who have read some of my other fanfiction will know that there were a few where I simply dropped them, because I couldn't find myself getting the inspiration to write the rest. Sometimes I gave the end of the story. Other times I just said I was ending it. The point is, I'm afraid to say that that has happened again.
I'm really sorry to say this, but yet again, I will not be completing this story. I have been contemplating this decision for a while - it was part of the reason I put it on hiatus while deciding to continue Spotlight and finishing Killer, to see if I could get back into writing this story - and have come to the conclusion that yes, I want to stop Who Dun It : Grimm Edition. Do I feel super bad about it? Yes, I always feel bad when I can't finish any of my stories on here. Do I feel awful because I know there are fans who were reading this and waiting for me to update and are probably extremely disappointed because they thought I finally did? Yes, most definitely. And for that, I am extremely sorry. I don't want you guys to just blindly accept this though, so I'd like to explain why I am doing this.
Writing this story recently has just been a great, big struggle for me. I know exactly how I want the story to go (granted, I was still mapping out the end), but none of the characters seem to move in the story and it all seems too forced. I couldn't even get myself to write the next chapter, and every time I went to I would be inwardly groaning or would give myself a reason not to write it. One thing I love about my fanfiction writing is that, in the end, I'm always proud of what I write. Not only that, but I enjoy writing it as well. This story just isn't working out, because I'm not enjoying writing it and I can't seem to write a chapter to continue it that makes me proud of the story. So, I'm going to put it down and stop writing. Maybe at some point I'll continue it like I did with Spotlight or rewrite it like I would like to do at some point with Hide and Seek and the Forgotten "series." But until then, I'm not going to continue. I'm sorry to those of you who were really enjoying this story. I did too, originally. However, I think it's best if I stop now, before I lose the pride I have in it.
Evx, you've always been a faithful reader of my fanfictions. For that, I thank you. I understand your hate for the Piper. He's supposed to be hated, after all. Although I definitely understand shipping him and Mina if Teague were out of the equation. Whether or not that would come into play later, if Mina would manage to escape, or if Teague would save Mina though are just going to have to be mysteries. I'm sorry for that, because I know it isn't fair. Thank you for all the support you gave me in writing this though.
Meague3, thank you as well. You're a newer fan, and I feel super bad that I'm giving up this story so soon after you reviewed wanting me to continue. I hope you and everyone else will forgive me, and I'm glad you enjoyed the bit of story that I did manage to write.
However, I do have a little bit of good news. Seeing as I'm ending this story and I have a policy of only having four active stories at a time, this means I will be putting a new story up. The real question is, which story should I choose to do next? In order to hopefully kind of make it up to you guys, I'm going to let you guys have a say in the vote.
Your choices are:
a.) Game Nights - After all my wonderful stories with death, pain, and suffering, this would be a happier, funnier, cuter story that wouldn't be the twist Truth or Dare was. What happens when the gang - and possibly a few of my own characters - get an invitation to stay at the Fae castle from the wonderful Dark Prince himself?
b.) Words - Notice how there are no Charlie-central stories on here? This fanfiction would fix that! What is going on in Charlie's head, and what happens when he snaps? This one would not be nearly as happy as Game Night.
c.) Unfairest - The long awaited sequel of I Won't Say I'm In Love! It has been a long time since that story, hasn't it? Teague has managed to survive the Little Red Riding Hood quest, and Mina has pulled a Jared on him, leaving him confused. How will the events of Fairest play out though?
d.) Hide and Seek Rewrite - Oh gosh, rereading this story made me cringe. I love the plot idea I had for it, but there are quite a few parts where stuff is wrong or contradicting. Not to mention the ending was a cop out. So how about I rewrite it? New plot twists would be coming, and no more of my rushing the story!
e.) Forgotten Rewrite - My second story on this site. I think my writing ability has really grown since then. It was rather short and I lost my steam for it in Remembered. So how about I redo it and write it better? This would mean that either Remembered would be rewritten or smushed into Forgotten. And yes, there would be some plot changes!
Let me know in a review which you'd like to see from me next. Once again, I'm sorry for having to stop this story. I hope you guys will forgive me and continue to support me in my stories!
