I know, I know... · 4:21am Sep 3rd, 2016
So, I've been sort of a social Hermit lately. Off facebook, off everything. I've been dealing with a lot of problems in my family, my personal life, and my own mind. I'm on a few medications for depression and anxiety, and i'm slowly getting better.
I'm still not willing to say i'm done writing, There is definitely more to Guilty's tale. But as is I just have so much trouble finding the fun in it. Writing Guilty used to get me excited and I'd stay up writing in my head. Right now though, I'm really really struggling to pick it back up. I'm just so worked up that Anything i write comes out negative depressing. For a while i found myself vague-booking and whining in any public forum i could find. i was just mindlessly suffering.
I'm going to really try to pick this story that i love so very much back up. It might not be soon, but I will be writing more. You've all been very patient, and I love each and every one of you.
I'm glad you are still interested in writing. This story is amazing and as long as you keep plugging away at it we will be here to read it.
I've been sad that there hasn't been any new Guilty and Derpy tales for a while, but hearing this I feel bad for that. Though I am very glad things are getting better, if even only a little, and I hope they continue to do so! Honestly, I'd wait forever for another update if I had to, that's how much I love what you've done. But certainly, you finding the fun in it is more important than writing it for the sake of writing. I hope you do find it again.
Take all the time you need. Pick up yourself, then pick up your writing.
Move forward in life, boldly and proudly as a knight should with your mighty battle-cry:
DISCO NEVER DIES!
Take your time. I'm happier getting an update than a new chapter if you're not happy with it.
Dude, you take all the time you need. You, and a handful of other, equally talented writers are the reason why I made an account here. It was so I could follow your work, the stories you've put so much effort into. And hey, if it comes down to you popping back in far into the future, so be it. You'll find more than a few people ecstatic to see that update, no matter how long it takes, something you can go back and see for a bunch of your chapters.
I remember back in late 2013, going to Hawaii with friends, ready to have a fun time, everything left behind.
Then an update from you pops up on the night of the first day there.
"Hey D, you ready to go out to..."
"Busy, gotta read something real quick."
"But we were gonna hit up the beach and..."
"BUSY! READING!"
We'll all be waiting dude, but don't feel rushed. Always worth the wait
Oh, I'm sorry that you've been having such a rough time of it; good luck.
Take all the time you need, your mental health is more important. I'm glad to hear your getting better.
I'm really sorry to hear that you're plagued by such troubles. That's never fun. However, I'm immensely gratified that you're sharing an update like this with us. Reaching out to your readers is one of the best and nicest things that an author can do, and I am very happy to hear that you value us so much.
In turn, know that we value you just as much. Your writing is fantastic, and it has been an absolute joy to read. Authors of your caliber are to be treasured. As such, take all the time you need to sort things out. We'll wait however long it takes. And if you need someone to lend an ear, we'll be here. Hang in there.
Easily one of my favourite five stories on the site.
Yo. Otherwise complete stranger whose stories I like. Hit me up if you want to talk about things. Chuck's much better at actually powering through it than I am, but I reckon I got a bit more experience in the 'picking up the pieces' part when it comes to this sort of thing. And you seem like you'd be a cool person to talk to anyway.
Like others have already said, take the time you need.
Good luck.
We will wait, as long as it takes. We will do this happily for you have freely given us much happiness. I only hope that some justice is met, and the happiness you have given to so many is reciprocated on to you.
/hugs/
Hey, IRL comes first, but glad to see Guilty isn't forgotten about. Take care of yourself first though.
Take however long you need. Don't worry about us - the story is well worth the wait!
We'll be here when you come back to it.
I've been in a similar place before, and if you don't mind some unsolicited advice, pick yourself back up before you try to pick back up on writing. If you're not getting joy out of the process then it's not time to return yet.
Us strangers on the internet are here for you if you need us, but take care of yourself before you go worrying about us okay.
I always say that you can't rush art, and you have written one of the most interesting and in-depth OCs I have ever seen on this site. I'm sorry to hear that you've had such real-life troubles, but I'm happy to hear you haven't abandoned this amazingly complex character you have created. I don't care how long it takes for you to upload another chapter: A month, a year, several years....i'll be excited when it comes out and I'll read it.
Write what you can, when you can. We're patient and we'll be here to read it. Get better in your life first, though. That's always a priority
Medications for depression and anxiety? Oh my, I hope it's nothing too serious. Get well soon!
Well, you did skip over Derpy and Guilty's first fight. Maybe write about that and clear the air a little?
Hopefully you're doing alright! I've re-read your story, and it's still one of the best on this site imho.
Hope you're doing better since this post was made. I can see you're still logging in, so you're at least alive, and that's reassuring.
