Bye bye. · 7:46am Nov 19th, 2014
This announcement comes after an argument I had with my mom just a while ago, it was over really petty stuff so I won't elaborate on that in this blog post. But I will say that it did bring to light the importance for closure and clarification, which I'm going to strive for in this blog post.
I'm going to retire from my FIMFiction account. Why? Because I've got no passion for writing anymore. That lack has been apparent since a while back, I think, even at the start of this year. It's not that writing is tedious, it's just that there's always this mental rope tugging on me, reminding me that I should update this, I should update that, that it becomes worrisome for me and I just try to ignore that. I don't update because I'm a jackass and do the opposite of what I'm told, even by my inner voice. Even now, something's telling me to just stop writing this stupid blog and live the next day without anything special happening but fuck it, I have to do it. I need to get it out there that I'm retiring from this site so I don't leave my followers hanging.
I do have many distractions, like schoolwork (good distraction) and Dota 2 (bad distraction) but honestly if I really had a passion for writing I'd find a way past them. But I didn't. Writing was always 3rd, 4th priority on the list. I need to accept the truth that I just don't like writing anymore.
That's all, I guess. The community has been really special (for the most part), I've met many intelligent and creative authors through my time here and people who are passionate about the things they do. I get distracted a lot so I'm sorry for all of the super slow disappointing updates. At the same time I hope that you, my fellow readers, and I shared many good laughs together through my silly fan fictions.
Well, not much in this blogpost, certainly no fancy gifs and memes and whatnot. But considering that, I hope that my brief post stressed my points clearly. Have a good day then.
EDIT: I'll be publishing all of my WIPs so that people can view what they could have been. I've no grand ending with a new story or a kickass new chapter for my current ones, so this is the least I can do.
