I feel like I need to tell you all something. This is really important, and I believe it's important for you to know. Jacob Keel doesn't exist. I'm sorry I've let you on for that long. I just wanted to be somebody else if any of my stories sucked.
I hate much of my own writing. When I look at somebody else's story, I see how much better their work is than mine. I just wish I could write like them, but then you all go prove me wrong. Thanks for showing me that you care about my stories.
However, I have changed a few things in my queue. IAR is gone, and FotA is now "Schism".
I'm sorry about the suddenness of my actions, but I felt the need to get rid of my failures. It hurts to look back at my own stories and see how much I failed. Luckily, I won't be changing Ripples. That is actually one of my better works.
Thank you for sticking with me, especially after this.

Your stories are good! Don't give up! Most of us writers probably feel the same way about our own works, but we keep writing and try to become better. We read works that are better then our own to learn how to make our own stories better. We learn from peoples' failures and successes, whether it be our own or others'. Don't give up, bro!

I promise I won't give up. My CW teacher told me this two years ago. "You'll always feel that others write better than you do. Just try not to let it affect you too much."
I've taken that message to heart, and I only made this blog post to show you that I'm human. Plus, I wanted to tell you guys something else as well.
