A/N: I am so sorry that it gave you a notification of a new chapter uploaded. Unfortunately, I do not have a chapter for you at the moment, but I do have an important message that I need to deliver to the followers and fans of this story.
The Crimson Blossom is being put on a hiatus for a while. There are many different reasons for this, I will share the top two with you.
1) For the amount of time and effort I am putting into each new chapter, I am not receiving enough evidence that it is being read and/or appreciated. Seriously, I am not kidding when I say that I worked on the last chapter for a week, staying up a little later to write, edit and review the chapter so I could get a satisfying chapter out to all my readers. However, as hard as I worked on that chapter, I only received three reviews that gave me any type of feedback at all. Please do not mistake this as upsetting me, I try not to base my stories on reviews, however, I feel as though this story is not catching enough interest and enjoyment that matches the amount of effort I am putting into it. If it is not being appreciated like I would like it to be, I would rather spend that time and effort writing something that will be.
2) I have other ideas for stories that are begging to be written. However, I do not want to work on more than two stories at a time. Seeing as I am also working on The Trouble With Love, and its popularity has been increasing with each new chapter, The Crimson Blossom was the story I would have to let go…temporarily.
Don't misunderstand me when I say that I am placing it on a hiatus. I do not have any intention of discontinuing it; I still have it in my mindset that I will complete this story with a satisfying ending. So, rather, think of it as I am just taking a break from the story and placing it on hold…putting it in the drawer of my desk for a later date…placing it on the back burner for a while…whichever analogy you would like to go with, it all means the same. I will come back to finish it. However, I cannot say at the moment when I will come back to it. It could be weeks…months…even a year or more. It will be placed on hiatus until further notice.
I am so sorry if this upsets or bothers anyone…I really thought about the choice, and decided it would be best at the moment. I will be finishing up The Trouble With Love during the hiatus and possibly starting a new fic, possibly called Trepidation (I'm still experimenting with the title) so that will be coming down the pike soon as well. Remember that this does not mean I'm discontinuing! Just taking a break!
As always, your support and reviews are appreciated, however, I do not have room for negativity on my profile or stories. Your opinions are kindly appreciated, but be aware that if you are going to go out of your way to write a negative review, they will be ignored and deleted immediately. And, also depending on the intensity of the review, your profile may be blocked as well. There is a difference between politely expressing your opinion and being an asshole. I hope my decision is respected and once I feel that it is time to bring this story back, I can promise I will make a very satisfying comeback for you all!
Thank you for supporting The Crimson Blossom!
