Bit of a clarification on FIM stuff after Werewolves of Knicknik · 12:06am Apr 21st, 2022
I just wanted to clarify that I'm not going off to work on my own stuff now because I'm giving up on FIM, it's just that I don't have the time to work on two things like this at the same time(the story I'm about to release has been in the works for several months and is only a couple chapters in because I've been working on Werewolves of Knicknik).
If there were two of me I'd happily just keep chugging along on FIM stuff for at least another decade, I don't think I'd run out of stories to write in that amount of time for FIM. But I have to decide at some point if I want to write more fanfic stuff or if I want to start releasing some of my own stuff which has been boiling away since 2015 or so, and you can see it starting to leak in to what I'm writing for Werewolves of Knicknik.
The idea for me writing all this fanfic stuff was for me to reach a point with my writing quality and writing words per day that I could start writing other things, and also I was constantly coming up with other things in the background for my own fictional universe. And I think I'm finally there. Don't get me wrong Werewolves of Knicknik WILL finish, I've already got parts of the climax written out and most of the points from here on out have been plotted. I just never thought I would actually reach a point where I could put out over 8k words in a month.
Will people like my original stuff? Who knows? I think I've actually reached a point where I kinda don't care, I just feel like it NEEDS to exist, regardless of what I have to say on the matter.
