Hi everyone! It's been a really long time, and I'm not sure who's still following this story after so long, but there's a few things that I need to say.
If any of you haven't seen my tumblr post, I have decided that this story is currently frustrating me so much because I don't like where it's going/what it's become. I personally think that the characters and storylines have become a little too dramatic to be realistic, as well as the fact that there are several storylines/arcs that were never finished or just kind of contrived. I'm also not liking some of the romances I've set up (I love Oshitari x Anna, but I'm annoyed that I ever made up the Tsukiko love triangle thing and the whole Oshitari used to date Erena past. None of that anymore). But because I still love a lot of my characters, I think it would be best to not give up entirely, but to simply restart. I want to try again so I can write a cleaner and more mature version of what has already been started, and I believe that if I can, you readers will enjoy it much more.
Concerning AYWI and the one-shots...those are still fine. I like where those has left off, and even though AYWI is taking forever to update, I'll get back to it some day. But as of now, I'd like to get a few chapters in the rewrite, and then we'll see where AYWI goes.
I will leave up From Sky High as it is, but just make a new story document entirely and under a different name. Will there be changes? Of course, and some of them will be very major. A lot of the characters may not be quite how you remember them from here, but they'll still be the same at heart. One of my biggest issues with myself was that I wrote an overly angsty background for basically everyone, and that's just not realistic. I'm also not satisfied with how I've been treating the whole Miura storyline, so I may or may not drop it entirely, based on how I feel.
The good news is; I'm rewriting the first chapter, and it's about halfway done. It will probably be posted some time within the next week, and I hope you will all follow it and love it. Keep in mind though that while there are going to be big changes, some of my favorite lines/scenes will most likely be recycled, just written a little differently.
Thanks everyone! Please don't give up on me just yet!
Love, Cara
