Update...and you're NOT going to like it... · 8:54am Apr 22nd, 2017
*sigh*
Where to even begin...aside from the 21st of April was my birthday...
How about the second half of Chapter 9 is still in VERY DESPERATE NEED of help that, because I still don't have help, I was 'lazy-reading' sections I want fleshed out, but instead put lazy@$$ placeholders just like;
(Insert overly awesome battle sequence to fill in later)
or...
(Insert connecting stuff to tie in next section...bla-bla-bla...)
The last one I actually put into that chapter, and made streamlined descriptions of what happened which were such an eyesore that it made my birthday suck somewhat (it bummed me out enough to not really care that my mom and dad had ordered for me a Deluxe Nintendo Switch for my birthday). And what sucks even more was that I made a big whoops and cut off the power to the computer while I was 'writing' (if you could call what I put down as writing if you saw what I put down) and like the idiot I am at times, forgot to save it, erasing all the 'work' I put down, on my birthday mind you, just to meet a deadline I placed for myself for your enjoyment, without any help at all...
It really didn't help my psyche that nothing really big happened and I was in a rather depressed mood to begin with. I really don't want to give up on my story, and I really want to see it through to the end, but the energy and creativity is dying in me without assistance for it. These sessions my parents had set up for me last year to 'improve' my social skills have been draining me dangerously, especially when several weeks ago, they're trying to get me to communicate with people on subjects I get extremely (like the kind you wouldn't wish upon your kids)
uncomfortable with, and get a lousy job.
It's getting too chaotic for me to want to continue anymore, and I'm viciously fighting against the one thing I do not want to do...
To give it up altogether...
I don't want to give it up, and I don't want to pull the plug for not only Pokémon - The Equestrian Chronicles, but my other fictions as well. It's getting harder and harder as time passes on for me. So, even if it is late, a birthday wish I want to make is that someone is willing to become a Co-Writer, to help me write out scenes I struggle with considerably (which is responsible for the annoyingly lengthy time gaps between chapters)...
But, as no one seems interested in having a lot of their input for the story overall, I wonder if anyone even cares, which hurts a lot more than getting hit by a car (which did happen to me)...
My attempt to make a different Pokémon Crossover Fanfic than the others on this site is practically dead from what I gather...which breaks my heart...
Not yet ready to give up, I want you readers to decide on this ultimatum:
Do you want me to continue on my own, sacrificing any chance of an OC being included and having an unclear chapter publication schedule where you have to wait for the chapter to be published to get any news it isn't dead, with chances it will be lifeless or dull or even face story decisions none of you will like. And also Sacrificing any chance of suggestions being noted or used with them being flat-out ignored?
...OR...
Do you want to help me get it done, have a greater chance of chapters being posted more consistently, any OCs being added, your suggestions having a fair chance of being utilized, and gain access to future information that I've been withholding, like who winds up with who to point out one example. In exchange with a chance of me canceling it for any number of reasons?
I got to know...please...I really do feel like I'm dying if I don't have a clue of what you want from me, and it is enough for me to just...
...end it altogether...
...to pull the plug on my user here on FIMFiction.net and to just erase all my stories...
...It might sound like a late April Fool's joke, but I promise you, it is no joke at all...
I'm so lost right now...
I don't know what to say, I really want this story to continue and believe me, I Love this story, I do and I want you to continue with this story. So, don't give up and keep your spirit up.
You do not have to do this laddie, I really enjoyed you story because dinosaurs were my favourite hobbies. You story is worth than all the social skills from real world. For me I am seriously trying to finish mine whatever the time avaliable. I think the battle scenes which somehow enlighten you or not will help you put on the right track to update. Please do not give up on this story for dinosaurs.
I love this story. I can't help but notice a disturbing trend of people giving up on their stories in the past couple of because life got in the way, and I don't want to see this happen anymore. Here's a thought: try asking around Pokémon Fan forums for help instead of just here, if you are not having any luck.
I would absolutely love to help you, really. But I'm afraid that I have real life holding me back. School's a jerk...
I know I haven't commented on your stories, but I have been reading them as best I can with the time I have online and I really don't want to see you give up. I really don't have anything that could be put in anything, but I would be willing to try to be an editor for you again if you don't mind the fact that I can't be online all the time. I'll try to help in any way that I can.
4505609 Thanks for the support, it means a lot to me...
4505705 I appreciate the support from you, I am having considerable difficulty continuing My Little Pony - The Age of Dinosaurs compared to my other fictions due to me wanting the dinosaurs to be portrayed more accurately than most other fics involving Dinosaurs. It didn't help that I lost the device I had the original draft on for more or less than a year...
4505737 I took your advice and asked on the forum, and an admin has interest in offering his assistance...So I thank you...
4505972 Agreed...And I appreciate the thought...
4508193 Thanks buddy, and the same issue before hasn't really changed in regards to battles, though another thing that recently became an issue is linking certain story elements together. It isn't that big of an issue, but it is a little difficult to start certain 'arcs' and have certain characters meet...I will seek your assistance when either one of us can, but I am in need of someone who can help out more frequently. I'll ask you for assistance every once in a while if that is doable...
I'm a fan of the story. A Big fan!

I would love to help you out with your story by giving you some ideas. Even edit the story, especially whatever chapter you seem to really need an editor for.
