    How is everyone?

    Hello. :twilightsmile:

    I wasn't very active last year. Normally I write blogs to let people know that I'm still roaming about on the site, but for some reason last year, I didn't. I'm sorry about that. It's not like I had anything going on either, I was just lazy, I suppose.

    Blessings unto you on this day, December 25th.

    2020 has been such an awful year. It's destroyed lives and families in the wake of a terrible and virile plague. In light of this, I wish people the very best day in 2020, wherever you may be. Please be safe and hearty. Let us make 2021 a better year for all of us.

    Deleting another story

    Gonna keep this short because I don't care for this particular story enough and I know well enough that neither do you.

    I will be deleting A Song of Angels from my library at my discretion of course. The artwork as done by Turbopower1000 will still be available on his Deviantart, considering that the artwork is probably plastered over the internet, having them deleted wouldn't matter at all.

Why I'm unwilling to fix Tears in the Snow. · 4:31pm Jul 13th, 2016

So having just edited the authors notes on chapter one of Tears in the Snow, as well as spying a comment I read a few weeks ago saying I should fix it up, I figured I might was well offer some explanation of why I'm less than thrilled with the idea of fixing Tears in the Snow.

Tears in the Snow is my second most liked story, having been beaten by A Mothers Warmth since its release, it is also my second story on this site and that is less than flattering for this fic which everyone knew was bad yet gave it a chance to my joy and childlike naivete. If one were to remove the "It's a Nyx/Snowdrop fic!" goggles and read through the story again as if it were just another fic, one will clearly see that the story was written terribly, it's unedited and is quite amateurish.

So why don't I want to fix it? Well it's because I wouldn't get very far. I struggle like an animal in a bear trap with rewrites and re-edits, especially when it comes to changing an entire chapter, and with all of the mess I've made with Tears in the Snow before chapter eleven, fixing it for me might as well be a living nightmare. The idea of fixing it may be a good one if I wasn't easily distracted, or if I didn't procrastinate, and if I had an editor who would be willing to help fixing twelve chapters and one thousand eight hundred and forty two words, and I'm sure that even Kirito-Persona would be willing to devote time to a demanding editing regime that would come out of Tears in the Snow.

While I don't want to leave Tears in the Snow a mess of a fic the way it is, I can't do much since I'm wrapped up with other things, all of them but one of which are Nyx related.

Do not mistake my stance on re-editing and rewriting the fic to be ill of heart, I'm overjoyed, even to this day, that people still enjoyed the story, regardless of its faults and flaws. :twilightsmile:

some fics should just be left how they are.

Lol I should know... how's rewrites on Nyx and Sunset? Been busy lol.
