It's with a heavy heart that I write this, but it has to be said.
After pushing and pushing myself for months, so many months on end, to write something, a good story, a long and epic story, I've failed.
I haven't just failed at my goal of writing entertaining stories for you guys. I've failed all of you guys, either by not completing stories or not giving up sooner. Part of me still doesn't want to give up.
But, unless something very drastic changes, I will no longer be trying to write fanfiction. I hope I can mean it this time, because I owe it to all my readers to make a decision and stick to it.
Clamoring for more reviews, favorites, follows, and views...you deserve better. I deserve better, for it has had a negative effect on my mental health. I've been stressed a lot more now that I keep pushing myself to write.
There have been many times over the last several months that I've tried to take the plunge, to dive right in. But I'm too scared to make such a long-term commitment, not when I'm starting college soon.
It's funny, really; you'd think that after some of the things I've done in real life, nothing would scare me anymore. But that's just not the way it is.
I can't find the motivation to write that I once had, and the writer's block is a brick wall I just can't chisel through, not right now anyway.
Of course, I'll still be involved in the fandom. Maybe I'll read here and there, although it might bring back longing memories of those days when I wielded . a powerful pen (or in my case the keyboard of my laptop computer that I had replaced a few months ago after my old one quit on me).
If anyone wants to talk to me, wants to know anything more, my Discord information is SnowLucario#5443. If that doesn't work, try Ludicrous Lucas#5443. I use both handles interchangeably.
That is that. Anyone who doesn't hate my guts can find me on Discord, and, to everybody else...well, I hope you don't hate me too much.
Sincerely, SnowLucario
