Long time again, huh?! I suck at this. If I didn't have such great fans, I think I would just stop writing. It's been really rough for me lately. Personal problems that none of you want to hear about. Trust me! You just want updates, and I totally understand that. I'm trying really hard. I keep getting new ideas though. I seriously have like seven or eight story ideas that are going to be great, I just know it! So, as I've been getting these ideas, I've been writing down parts of them so I don't forget, and it takes time. Excuses, excuses, right?
Anyhow. I'm sorrier that you all know for keeping my stories from being updated. Hell, 'My Name Is' should have been finished by now, and so should 'A Better Life', and 'You Stole the Rain' should be at least halfway completed. I should have one of my other stories up by now! I'm ranting, and you all don't really care about this. Sorry again!
A quick note to those of you waiting for 'My Name Is' to be updated. I'm seriously thinking about taking it down and fixing it up a bit. It shouldn't take a long time to repost. I don't want to do it because I have so many reviews for that story and stuff, but there are mistakes, and I'm a little peeved with something a reviewer said about it.
I'm don't want to come down on anyone, but don't both reading my stories if you're going to just skip to the Bulma and Vegeta parts. If I didn't have a purpose for the other parts of the story, I wouldn't put them in there, and I have a lot of love for all my characters that I've created, so don't waste your time and don't waste mine. I don't want to hear that things don't make sense to you, or the plot is shit. Read the whole story, or don't read it at all. And definitely don't tell me that it doesn't make sense to you after you tell me you skipped around it like that. God, I'm not trying to be a bitch here, and I know that's how I'm coming off to you. (This of course is intended to that reviewer not going to name names that told me all this.) I feel really shitty because you were just trying to be nice and supportive of me by reviewing, but it made me angry. I put a lot of time and effort into developing plot and characters.
I just want everyone to know that every, little part I write in a story has something to do with the main storyline and the main characters. In 'MNI', the relationship between Vegeta and Akira has a lot to do with Vegeta, Akira, Bulma, and Arthos, and everyone around them. Same with the relationship Vegeta had with Marron, and the relationships between Akira and Yamcha and Yamcha and Marron. They're all connected in some small but major way.
Another thing that I'm sure might get people mad about my fics. I'm not fan of these 'wham-bam-thank-you-mam' storylines that have Bulma and Vegeta meeting for the first time and the next day they're so in love. That's bullshit in my opinion. Love doesn't happen that way people. It develops over time. It's just not realistic for two people to meet and two minutes later claim their undying love for each other. If you like stuff like that, then I'm sorry. You might not want to ever read any of my stories again, because I'm a realist, and I'm not ever going to write a plot like that. It's going to be gradual. You're going to see the feelings culminate and how it affects the people around them.
Okay. So, I'm officially a major bitch, and ya'll hate me. Understandable, but I've never been one to care too much what people think. If you don't want to review my stories anymore, that's fine. You're entitled to your own opinions. It's truly, honestly been great to hear from you over the months and to be praised by you.
Sorry to waste your time.
