I'll admit, I'm not the best writer out in the world. In fact, I think I'd call myself one of the worst. It's just that, I have these great ideas (at least, in my head) that don't translate well onto paper. I try my hardest, but my stories just end up coming short.
So, I've decided to overhaul my stories.
Fire Emblem: Equestria was, and still is, an ambitious story, one that had been in my head for quite some time. Unfortunately, what ended up happening was a train wreck, mostly because I couldn't get myself to STOP and look over my work!
Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to delete it, just re-work it under a different title. And THIS time, I swear, it will be better. Of course, a little help would be great... I need help with characterization. So many other stories out there, like Past Sins and Loyal2Luna's Doctor Who series have such great characters, and they do such a great job endearing them to their audience! I wanted to reach that level, and I still do, but I'm gonna need a lot of help to get there.
As for Of Spirits and Swords... I have another idea for that one. Basically, it was a plot bunny that wouldn't go away, and was eating away at me until I finally ended up putting fingers to keyboard and submitted it as another story. So, I'm going to start a collection of stories and plots, write a first chapter to each of them, and if the readers want to see one of these ideas put into a full-length story, I'll do it!
As for Gentlemen of Fortune, I'm going to take off the second chapter and just leave it as a one-shot, at least for the forseeable future. I honestly think I should have kept it that way to begin with, seeing as I never really thought of a plot line for it. Perhaps when I finally get the mess that was Fire Emblem: Equestria under control, I'll go back to it.
Really, I'd LOVE some help with it... would anyone want to give this struggling, and frankly, poor author some help?
please do not remove the 2nd chapter of gentlemen of fortune! plenty are waiting for more! idk how much help I can be, I'm not that good with spelling..
