Well...can't say it wasn't coming.
After a lot of me trying to figure out what I am going to do I have finally found the answer, even if it sucks. Today is going to be my last day on FimFiction. I just no longer have interests in MLP and its fanfiction, writing it and reading it. This isn't what I wanted it to be, but it is what it is. That being said there is a lot I want to say.
For starters I want to thank all of you, my loyal minions, for all the love, support, and feedback you have given me over the past few years. I never thought I would get to this point on FimFiction even. Currently we have 10 published stories, 126,000 total views, 318 followers, and more favorites then I want to take the effort to count. I won't lie that I never thought I was going to break 10 followers on the site, so to all of you, followers and people who just like to favorite my stuff, I thank you again. I have had the opportunity to meet so many people through this fandom, who are all awesome. Now I wish to take the time to thank a few specific people
arcum42: Thanks for all the opportunities and the good memories from Twilight's Library. I know it ended in flames but I don't really try to think about that at all.
Elric of Melnipony: Thanks for taking the time to both edit my stories for me and just be an all around great guy. I will miss discussing bad stories with you and taking the time to point out the waves of flaws we could have filled a novel with.
Skeeter: Thanks for just being plain awesome (everyone knows this all you need to say to sum up this awesome individual).
TheMyth: Thanks for always being so friendly and always wanting to talk, even though my schedule really hinders any chat time (I'm hoping this will change). Thanks for helping me come up with good ideas to use and showing me ways to improve.
Rated PonyStar: When a well known writer follows you it's kind of a big deal. When that same writer takes the time to talk to you, gives you ideas, and even writes a sequel for you it is something you will never forget. This word is going to be repeated a lot, but thanks for everything.
SirTruffles: Thanks for taking over editing my stories and further helping me improve my writing. I learned a ton from you about all the fine little details it takes to make a story great. I will always remember these and the good times at Twilight's Library.
TimeLord_Whooves: Thanks for being the first to offer help when my stories were just a utter mess. You got me on the right track and helped me get to where I am today.
Alright I don't think I have forgotten anyone. Now let's get on to some serious business. Some are probably wondering what the the state of Guardian Angel will be. To be honest I'm not sure. At first I said I wasn't going to have anyone take over, then I mulled over the idea. I am still not actually sure what I want to do, but I'm leaning towards not having it continued. The reason being that I don't know if I will be able to make sure that whoever is taking over stays on track with how I wanted the story to move and flow. I'm going to keep thinking about the idea, but for now that is how it is going to be. Furthermore I absolutely do not want to get messages from random people I don't know asking if they can continue the story. The answer remains a strong and powerful no. I'm also no going to authorize anyone to create any kind of sequels to the story.
Taking my last note into consideration, there is one thing I am going to allow story wise for Guardian Angel. I am going to allow people to write side stories if they so desire, but again the side story may not be a continuation or a sequel. There is a catch, and that is that I want people to get approval from me before they write anything, which is kind of just a common courtesy when you use another authors ideas. Basically if you want to do anything relating to Guardian Angel all I ask is that you send an email to officialamorphous@gmail.com, and just provide me with the following:
FimFic username:
Story idea (taking care to explain how it relates to my story):
What kind of story it will be (i.e. oneshot or longrunner):
I'll take a look at it and send an email back on whether I approve it or not. I'm not going to be very harsh on my standards and all I ask is that you give me credit in some way, shape, or form. Just know that I will be checking the story once it is published.
Other important information that has nothing to do with stories. I will not be deleting my account or any of my stories. I thought about the idea, but people are still reading and giving stories favorites so I'm not going to deny them that. I may pop in periodically to check stuff, but that will be the extent of the accounts use.
Also if you still want to talk with me my Steam username is mayhemdarkshadow. Just know that if I'm busy I'm probably not going to answer.
Well I think that about does it. Sad to go but it is time to move on. I will miss all of you dearly.
Signing off for the last time,
Mayhem Darkshadow
well it was nice knowing ya sorry you have to leave, but I guess some people grow out of mlp at times, I hope you find what your heart tells you, and I know this won't happen but if possible I hope you will return one day.
I'll miss you.
Keep in contact.

If you need someone to talk to, let me know
Well.... shit. It's always the good ones who go.
Good luck with whatever it is you choose to do from now on.
Oh captain my captain! You will be missed! *salutes*

I am sadden to see you go, you've been a good friend and a great writer. I understand you choice as there have been a few fandoms I've walked away from. I wish you luck in your future endeavors and please know that you will always be welcomed back.

'Nuff said.
Twilight's Library was good while it lasted, and I was glad to have you on staff there. Tag-a-long's Book Club is good going forward, but I do miss those days.
I can't say this was totally unexpected. I'll miss you here, but you do have my steam user id, and you can always shoot me a message there. Good luck on your future endeavors, and you're always welcome back...

I wish you the best in whatever you do, or comes you way, next. /)(\
Uh, later.
...Course this is sort a random. I guess it was boring to you? Burned out? Good luck either way.
You'll be missed.
Whatever you do in the future, we will never forget you. Good luck with what your future holds.
Sorry to see you, but people's interests and priorities do change with time. I wish you the best in your future endeavors and should you ever decide to return there'll be plenty of people to welcome you back with open arms.
Its always a dark day to see a fellow brony leave the herd... Men, A salute is in order i believe.

You're not the first, and you won't be the last.
Sigh... I really, really wish you wouldn't just give up on this, either your story or the fandom (especially since they just announced the titles of season 5's opening two-parter a few days ago). Guardian Angel is one of the earliest stories I read, back before I got an account here, and I hate to see it left hanging.
Until next time...

Will you allow others to work on your stories? Seriously, you've got some awesome stories that shouldn't be allowed to die off unfinished!

I was not planning on responding to any comments, but since the two of you are concerned I want to alleviate it. I am still deciding on if I will get a fellow author to continue the story for me. I have already talked with said person and they said they would do it. Just need to make a final decision, but it will not be coming anytime soon I have other stuff to worry about.
This is the only response I will be giving. I wouldn't bother replying because I'm most likely not going to log back onto my account.
oh i will miss you too as a friend and best of luck in the future with whatever you do i will always love your story that is tagged in this blog
