Hello!
I know, I was doing well there for a bit. Updated every two weeks for, what, 3 chapters in a row on OUAD ? And then...took a bit of a break for a bit there. Again. I'm sorry about that. There was really no good reason for it other than my brain running into a wall, I guess. I'm at that same point with the new chapter of my RLS Legacy fic too. And have been for LITERAL months. So maybe I work on that now, just get SOMETHING up.
But hey! There are only two chapters left in OUAD! Amazing, I know. And I have started planning a sequel out for that one. (I mean, I'm loosely planning for sequels with most of my current stories, soooo...does that really mean shit? Kinda gotta finish the first stories in each series before I can actually promise a sequel in the works, right?! Right.)
Any way...if you've stuck around this long, thank you for putting up with me. I feel like it's obvious with my current upload "schedule" (HA!) and the overall quality of my writing that I've been in kind of a downswing lately. For those who don't know, I do suffer from generalized anxiety and major depression, which tends to make it difficult for me to prioritize and have any motivation whatsoever to do stuff like write. Plus, I work two jobs, which takes up most of my energy and time. A lot of you started reading my stuff when I was a teenager with no real aspirations and TONS of spare time. 😂 Obviously, things have changed a bit. And it does bother me that my writing skills are noticeably not what they used to be, so I'm very sorry for that. I only want to post good stuff for you guys.
So I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you, thank you, thank you, from the bottom of my heart, if you're a follower of mine who's been around for awhile and you're wondering where the hell I've been; and if you're a new follower who's simply wondering where the hell I'm going with anything I'm posting. There is a relatively cohesive plan, I just need to get off my ass and make it happen. Writing is one of the few things in my life that genuinely brings me joy and makes me feel accomplished, so to all of you who have been so supportive and receptive of my nonsense...you are simply awesome. And for you, I'm going to work on prioritizing doing the stuff I love and want to do more regularly.
Other general news: In addition to finishing my current fics & wanting to do sequels to them (I'm talking specifically about OUAD, Legacy, and Alice, in no particular order), I also have some brand-spanking-new fics in my brain, each of them in the vein of the fantasy genre. I'm talking witchy stuff. I'm talking elves and shit. But also!...Vampires? If you're into that sort of thing...
Also, most likely not any time soon, I want to do some great big crossover fics concerning the worlds of Disney, Marvel & DC...which should be interesting. It's been nagging at me for awhile. But the scale of these stories- at least in the way that I'd like to do them- is so unrealistic for me at this current point in time that I really just have to wait until I have a full outline before I can get it started.
So that's pretty much where I'm at with all that. I'm excited to finish OUAD and make some serious headway with my other stories, mostly because I'm really itching to start some new stuff too.
Oh! If you've noticed, I've put a number of my fics on a hiatus. That's because I just didn't see them going anywhere/couldn't remember what my original plan for them was/want to just get rid of or completely re-do them. I will keep you updated on all that as I proceed.
Aaand that's all i can think of right now. Again, thank you guys for all your support! Every review, follow & favorite fills my cold, tired heart.
