Hi guys! Crazy times, huh? I've been overwhelmed with lost jobs, finding a new one, and school all at the same time. While some may be bored and have nothing to do, I wish I was bored. When I'm not working, I'm writing and thinking. I've been trying to finish Life but my mind goes off onto different projects. I would really like to try to tie up loose ends before finishing my pride and joy, my magnum opis.
I have also been expanding. Before the virus I was getting comfortable with Tumblr and Quotev, and just recently I joined Ao3. I try very hard to make all of my platforms consistent; if one story is on one, it must be on all. With this being said, it has forced me to look through all of my stories, not just my published ones but my uncompleted works or stories I have saved for myself.
Now, I swore to myself I would never do this - because there is always ONE person out there who wants to read your stories, no matter what - but I have decided to drop some less-important projects all together. Some of you may have noticed that I deleted the epilogue to my AU Sinking; I did this because I have learned a very powerful lesson through Alex Hirsch; a good storyteller knows when to stop. A great story can slowly turn mediocre if it overstays its welcome. Yes, fanfics are supposed to break some rules and be nothing but fan service, but I consider fanfics great practice for writing my own books, and I want to take them just as seriously.
And so, I am sorry if this disappoints anyone, but I will be deleting Beauty Comes From Ashes and Missing You and In Two the Multiverse.
I will be continuing What is a Home? and I will keep little one-shots from my AU, like First Night and The Forbidden Word. And I promise that I WILL finish Life soon. Well, not too soon, but hopefully it will be a fun conclusion to read during these hard times.
I hope you all are doing well, and I apologize if I am inconveniencing anyone.
