Hard To Say Good Bye Is Getting Harder To Write

I'm putting it on hiatus. It's hard, but I have to. Months ago, I promised I'd have a chapter up sooner then the last one and I've failed to keep that promise. Badly. I had the entire story planned out, I swear. I knew what I wanted written and I was prepared to write it down. But somewhere along the line stuff happened. It's not time. I always knew what was going to happen at the end, I think a good deal of you readers knew too. It's just that as it nears, it grows harder to think about. I'm not squeamish or anything, it's just that my grandpa's death has me thinking...death is so final. But it's also a part of life. When I can work around my own hesitation, then I can understand and give this story a worthy ending. The conversation between Fluttershy and Applejack fizzled out. Applejack didn't want to talk about it, and Fluttershy's such a sensitive pony that she's reluctant to push the issue. In one draft Pinkie Pie was going to blow up at her, but I wasn't sure how that would go down with the readers. So confusion and block prevail, but one thing is certain. I'm gonna finish this. I don't know how long (I hope before Summer's over) but I will. So I'm gonna put the dreaded hiatus tag on and focus on some other ideas I've had for awhile to clear my head.
Thank you for understanding.
