An apology · 11:33pm Jan 24th, 2018
Inspiration's a flash.
You're hit, you commit, and you write it.
But then what next?
So now you've got some fans.
The watchers, the judges, those waiting.
A flash is brief.
So you struggle and plot.
Hope your one hit can carry the album.
It begins, the doubt.
Find a way to stall time.
Excuses, delays, and side projects.
They're beginning to circle.
And then it's too much.
Nothing you write is sufficient.
And the flash is long gone.
Looking back with regret,
was there ever a point?
I'd imagine so.

Yes because you're stories make people smile.
Better to have loved then lost, than to never have loved at all.
You might never write another chapter of Photo Dash, but this site and the people who have read it are better for its existence.
That, and it is about 58 000 words more than I've written, so there is accomplishment there even in an unfinished story.
I'd still like to see more (which is why I recently moved it between shelves rather than remove it entirely) but I don't even want an unpaid author to think they are obligated to write more.
Apology accepted. I'm sorry about your lost inspiration, but I do think that there was a point; it still strikes me as an interesting concept, and whether or not it's lasting no longer, I enjoyed it while it did. :)
I've been there. My first story, on FF.net that this, received more attention than I ever imagined it would. But after two years I just stopped caring and I quit. You did the right thing by writing this apology. It shows you have class.
Good job. :)
I was really hoping we would at least get to the big reveal where Spitfire finds out the truth, but if you cant go on then I guess Ill have to respect that. I still really hope you continue this at some point, but if you don't I think most of us will understand.
Thank you for telling us the truth at least.
Yes there wws a point. The point was to bring happiness into a world full of darkness. Now write some more, goddammit!
I would be happy to help you with the story if you would like. It's such a wonderful piece I really would like to see more of it.
Just wanted to add my love for this story. The reread was still a great time!
Thank you.
