You have all been so kind to me over the years.

I don't know how to say thanks, really, to all the people who have read and reviewed my work. This fandom is what brought me up. This fandom got me interested in fanfiction. Then, all you wonderful people wrote brilliant stories that inspired me. You taught me how to write. Some of you consider me one of the best, or even the best writer the fandom has had. One of my stories was recommended on TVTropes. I can't express the amount of happiness that you have all given me.

However, I feel like my well of pokemon stories has run dry. The things I think of for these characters are, as this collection shows, cliched. In a way, this was kind of my death throes in keeping myself alive in the fandom, forcing myself to have new ideas. But, even here, I feel redundancy creeping into my work. I don't think I have anymore to give.

Once I finish Senior Year, I'll leave at my prime, rather than writing the same story over and over again. People are frustrated that Stephen King does it, aren't they?

So, thank you. Everyone. Not everyone who reviews or reads my stories reads this, and there are plenty of people who have read only this and have no idea how much time and thought I've put forth into this fandom. I gave it everything I could. I gave the characters the best stories I could. And now, I'll leave them before I do them injustice.

You made me who I am, my reviewers.

Thanks for the reviews.
