Another Summer: A GF Continuation

by HelpfulApple

After Bill Cipher was defeated, though he was barely alive, pieces of him scattered across North America, with weird stuff following. To combat this, the Pines Paranormal Protection Service is formed in 2021, protecting Piedmont and occasionally travelling elsewhere. But, when a familiar face urges them to come back to Gravity Falls, the twins return for Another Summer...

24. A hiatus - for now

Heya.

Let's get real for a second. To the five readers out there who are still with me, thank you for sticking around to read this fic. You've probably noticed that I've been updating… not very often.

Here's the situation; I've been suffering a lot of burnout. You'll notice that 16 took far longer than any other previous chapter to come out, because that's around the time I began to get major burnout. Then it went away for the first ~3000 words of Attack of the Clones, and then it came back full force like a speeding truck. And now, I just… don't want to write.

And now, my general distaste for the fic has birthed its unholy lovechild with burnout; and a severe lack of any comments or reviews is the godfather. That's right, burnout and my hate for my writing has created… problems with procrastination! Yippee!

I started off this fic full of zeal and vigour, with the intent to create the best continuation of these incredible characters' stories I could possibly do. And along the way, I fell in love with writing; I really did. Google Docs was my most-used app, I didn't play any videogames for a full month, I had big dreams for new and fresh fanfics. Fanfiction was the knife I used to spread the butter of pure, unadulterated joy on the bread that is my existence.

But I don't have that zeal and that vigour anymore. I'm left just not wanting to write this at all.

And, with a heavy heart, that's why I've decided to take an indefinite hiatus. I don't know when I'll come back from it…

But I will. Enjoy the rest of your July, and I'll see you whenever I'm back.

Bye.
