As I've been writing my current project (a sadfic), I've noticed my thoughts have taken a rather morbid turn. Namely: what would all of you think if I were to suddenly die? No, I'm not wondering how everyone would miss me, or any of that crap. Just...if I were suddenly killed in a plane crash or something, none of you would know what really happened. Due to the anonymous nature of the internet, even if my name appeared in a news article or obituary somewhere, you'd never connect it with that fanfiction author.
You'd likely scratch your heads, wondering why all activity and updates suddenly ceased. The authors I pre-read for would probably keep sending chapters to me, with increasing impatience, until finally giving up and finding a new pre-reader. The regulars on the local IRC would devote a few seconds to wondering why that Fan fellow isn't appearing on the chat any more. Nobody would know what really happened.
It's just something to think about.
On another note, I've just started a group for Canadian bronies, having found a group for Australian bronies, but not one for Canadians. So, if you hail from the frozen north, go ahead and join. We can hang around and...I dunno. Be Canadian.
I would probably assume ether suicide or that you gave up on the fandom but lean towards suicide cause if you left you seem like the type to say so and if it was suicide well some people just don't want to leave something behind to say so to all of us so i would eventually assume death but by sucide not plane crash.
I hope that never happens...
Wtf is this noise? Your ass isn't gonna die anytime soon (you better not anyway) cuz your prereading skills are why I chose u in the first place. Knock off this nonsense and continue on the path you've chosen for yourself and make the best of the hand you've been dealt. so in summation who the hell else is gonna check my stories for cleche'd shenanigans if you stop helping me? Ain't no way AHOTR would be as successful as it has been w/o you, guy.
could i join your group if i was related to a Canadian
hell i live in Vermont
29716 Wow. Why does everyone think I'm depressed or something? I mean, I appreciate the encouragement, but I'm just being existential. Morbidly so, but you've got nothing to worry about.
30365 In my defense, I was quite drunk.
You know, I've actually wondered the exact same thing. I've dealt with (and still do to an extent) suicidal depression. If I suddenly disappeared, would anyone notice? Would anyone care?
Ah well. I suppose it doesn't matter much in the end, anyway.
