The Mighty Fall

by Black Th1rt3en

It is a truth universally known that what a man wants most is what he can't have. What the Sherriff of Nottingham wants most is an outlaw - the one that managed to pull him from his throne by the short strings of his heart. What he doesn't know is that it will take more than a few sweet words to lure in the love of the unlawful, not that he doesn't manage anyway. (under co)

This is not an update, however this is a very important author's note I would read if you are interested in the future of 'the Mighty Fall' and my other stories.

Lately my writing has been lacking. I know I'm not the best writer however I do try and write my best, but as of late my updates have been sloppy and published because I want to get something up for people to read. That's not what writing should be about, and I blame the summer for taking its dazy toll on me and making me a couch slug. With that said I will be continuing, revamping, or just leaving some stories to rest. For example, I don't see much of a future to 'Under the Willow Tree' as of right now. I may come back to it, but I've had zero muse for it and received a rather reality shattering review that was both heart breaking to read but also very truthful. I can't deny that my stories have been without plot and good writing, and though I know people want constant updates I believe quality over quantity is the best statement to use here.

So as of now I will be updating when I do. If you want me to update, the best way is for reviews with actual feedback. Though I love hearing why people love my writing it doesn't help me to write more. What do you love about it? What could make you love it more? Simple stuff like that - I'm not asking for an essay, just something more than 'It's great, please update soon!' to encourage me and keep me on the right track. If you want to see more of my stories.

Last thing. Some of you have also noticed that I've deleted some stories. Most of those I won't go back to, frankly. I'll probably just scrap up something new or start writing some fanfics that I don't plan to finish. I am trying to get experience out of this, and I've come to realize that if I don't put my best effort forth then there is no point. So I'll only be writing in fandoms that I can put my best effort forth, and lately that's been 'Checkmate' and three other dark and most likely sexual fanfics I'm drafting with Lucius Malfoy, Firelord Ozai from ATLA, and Colonel Tavington from 'the Patriot'. I'm a sucker for bad guys if you haven't noticed.

With all that said and done, I hope you respect my decisions in stopping some fanfics for the sake of my sanity and because I don't want to write bad quality stuff. From here on out I will post when I can, as much as I can, with the best quality work I can. Till then I'll be going back and updating some of my older works, this one specifically. If you don't see any updates for a couple months go back and re-read some of it, I'm sure it's changed (I won't change the plot line to keep it simple).

ALSO (I know I said before that was the last thing but I HAVEEEE to add this). My stories won't necessarily be meaningful stories, just so you know. If you're looking for ground shattering stuff I would look elsewhere. I want to focus on action, comedy, romance, and obviously dark sexual stuff in one jumbo pile of bliss. So if you don't think there's a character arc going that's probably on purpose. However not all my stories will be like that, I do plan on writing some deeper stuff in specific stories, but I do think descriptions/the first chapter will tell which direction I intend to head.

Thanks to all those who read this long blurb, I hope to see more reviews soon and I'm sorry for the let down - if I did in fact let you down. I think this is for the best.
