Shutting down for power UP!!!

Hey everyone! PL4S is back, with a humongo-mahusive piece of news for my page!

First of all, please please please read this whole post. You're going to get entirely the wrong message if you skim it. That said, I guess I should start at the beginning, shouldn't I? OK, I've been struggling lately with some self-esteem problems. I mean, look at my Zombie Apocalypse - 3 likes 10 dislikes. I see people with stories hundreds of times better thinkin' they're no good. What does that say about me? You know what I mean? What am I supposed to say to that? And it's not like this is my first time. I've been facing phases of murky self-esteem for a long time, and I could never seem to escape them for good. Sure they'd fade away, but they only went to the backburner, someday to return.

So scrap the OC Q&A for the 10 followers celebration. I'm going to do something so much better, and please hear me out here. To properly commemorate this occasion, I am . . . *drumroll please* . . .

Shutting down this account.

Please don't misunderstand guys! I know how easy that is to read and take the wrong impression. This isn't me cursing myself off of Fimfiction or any of that. It is, in fact, quite the opposite: I have found exactly the thing that will fix my self-esteem problems permanently. I have entirely one individual to thank for this: OnionPie. If you're reading this, my friend, the deepest of thanks to you. In his/her intro they said "I'm nothing special, but I'm trying". With their permission, I want to tell you something I told them - something I have been needing to hear for a long time.

I did a lot of thinking over the following conversation. And a lot of thinking about my past experiences on Fimfiction. Being hated on and watching the hate rain down on others in this community supposedly based so solely on friendship. And I came to remember something my mom once taught me: often when a door in life slams on you, it's because it's got a better one open. I started to think that maybe my purpose here is not to write. Is not to bring attention to myself, to get fans, or any of that. My purpose was to follow the answer.

The answer is love.

*Chuckles* I wrote a story for that once upon a time. Guess I couldn't learn my own lesson by myself, could I? Anyway, this is where you guys come in. Before you ask YES I am still writing my Portals alt. That will be finished. But after that you can say goodbye to lil' depressed ol' PL4S and hello to MoralSupport4. That's where I'll be spending the rest of my time here.

With meillure souhaits,
