Story and General Life Updates · 2:13am May 18th, 2015
Hello one and all! And welcome back to another exciting journal!
Pffft, yeah right. Joking aside, I just felt like I had to give you all a little update on things.
First up, I have recently acquired a new job and it calls me away for about 7-8 hours a day. So I am adjusting to work and finding time to write. I hope you can all forgive me if the timing between new chapters is off.
Other than that, I want to take this time and thank all of you for your wonderful support, the many likes and views, and the commentary! Without it, I do not know how far this story would of gone. Speaking of views, The Human And The Well just recently passed the 4,000+ Mark! I am so happy that is has gotten this much attention! And I even got to see it on the front page, listed as a Feature story! A little sad that it only lasted 10 minutes though, but hey, a win is a win. No matter how small!
Also, I have had an itch to re-read my other stories and when I read "From Grey To Dark" I was blasted by the wall of text and I groaned. I had totally forgotten that they needed a good edit and now on top of making new chapters and writing my new one shot King Sombra story, now I have to plan a time to go back and carefully re-read and edit that one and all of "The Kings Shadow". So much fun!
But hey, I can't complain. I love to write and everytime I do, I get a little bit better each time (or at least I hope so!) So who knows, maybe one day I will take "The Kings Shadow" off of hiatus and make it into a great story! And "Goodnight, Spike" has been getting attention here and there and has almost hit 1,000 views! So that is good!
I have a sinking feeling that my Kilala97 FanFic entry "Love and Protect" was probably not up to snuff in the competition, but once again I am happy. Cause it is simply another story I loved to write and made me think outside of my usual whenever I do THATW.
So yeah, that is all this time! I hope to see you all in the future and hope you all continue to support me and my hobby writing! Ta ta for now!
Kudos on the new job man. It's a jungle out there for those of us still seeking employment. And good luck on the editing.
Congrats on the new job!
I really did notice when reading through "The Human And the Well' how your writing quality improved over time. At first there really were some text hedges, but in latter chapters there were less and less of them and overal writing structure improved.
I heard from several fanfiction writers how they look back to their previous stories and notice that they were not up to their current level of writing quality, but that is a natural way of thing and only means that they're really improved by strides!
