Rot Sequel · 11:56am Oct 27th, 2019
Yes, I'm finally doing it. Expect the first four chapters on Halloween.
Okay, THAT being said, I need to explain a LOT about it. Here goes.
Originally Rot was a story I wrote in less than five hours just so I could put something out for Halloween. I had no idea that it would become the biggest hit that I ever wrote. To this day I still don't understand why this little short story that I doffed off in an afternoon is still so popular, compared to 'Discord's Family Reunion' which I spent years writing and I consider to be the best thing I have posted here. I don't get it, but there ya go.
So when it was popular, everyone wanted more. I felt that the story was complete as it is. And still do. I tried to continue it, just for my fans, but Bleeding Raindrops gave me some very good advice on why NOT to. And he is right. Anything added to it would just lessen the impact of the story.
Also, I had always felt that I had said everything that needed to be said IN that story. Anything else would have been just a long afterwords. Tying up loose ends so to speak.
However, after a year or so, I considered the idea of a completely NEW story. I had hinted in Rot that there where other times in the past that Discord had attempted what he did with Twilight and failed. Who were they? And what would happen if these failures found out that he was trying again?
Turns out that I'm okay with writing a completely different story, picking up where Rot left off. And that's what I'm doing.
Now I will totally understand if fans of the original story aren't into this one. It's not 'horror', or 'sad', or 'dark'. I'm prepared for it not to be read, or liked, (The same as when I wrote Rot ironically). And it may be awhile between chapters (which I will explain in the following blog). But hopefully it will at least answers some long hanging questions, and perhaps a few of you will be into it.
I wish you luck!
:)
Well I'm excited!
YAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I wish to write a story around this concept but I want your pemisson first. Is it okay to write something like that.
