In short, I'm adding to the pile of dead fanfics and canning it. I've just lost motivation to continue it. This is nothing new: I've had a problem with not finishing my stories for a while now. If nothing else, it's good to know I can scratch off "writer" as a career path...
Do not fret my few fans, it's not all over. You see, my original plan was for the ending of Dead Zone to segue directly into another story I've been brainstorming for a while now. Honestly, my "hype" to write this story has been far greater and has only exacerbated my Dead Zone burn-out.
I won't reveal too much about the new fanfic right now. As you might've guessed, it's another Dragon Ball Super fanfic which'll be focused on the development and growth of one of my new favorite characters. You'll have to wait and see who it is!
The first chapter will be a prologue chapter, which itself will be what the epilogue chapter of Dead Zone was supposed to be, with a few sentences summarizing what was supposed to happen and how the characters would've turned out should I have finished the latter story. I'll be releasing them on a much slower schedule (once a week) to avoid burning myself out in the first stretch. Maybe.
