Update/apology. · 1:43am Mar 6th, 2020
Hi all! I'd just like to say I'm super sorry for taking so long to update any of my stories, I promise it isn't because I've lost interest in writing. Believe me, the longer I go without writing the more I want to. College is hard, really really really hard, especially with my major. And tied with my crippling fear of failure making me feel like I have a to study every day or I will fail really doesn't help. I take breaks, of course. But I don't get a lot of those, especially since I'm desperately trying to get a job since I barely have the money to survive. I still remember everything I want to do with my stories, I keep notes. And I promise I try to write as much as I can, but that isn't easy. On the plus side, I have been getting into some other series/games that have given me some ideas for things. I'm not making significant changes to story ideas, but I might make some minor adjustments that only improve on it and only I would know about. I'm currently playing throug the DMC series, and oh boy do they give me some good concepts for things. And trust me, there will be references, and there will be quotes.
Also, when I get a consistent source of income, I may start paying for commission fanart for some of my stories. I've had so many ideas for them in my head, but sadly I don't have the artistic talent to make them reality. Thank you all for being patient with me, and when spring break, which is just around the corner, comes around, I will try to put out as many chapters as I can. Though I mostly focus on my Men and Monsters series, I do intend to update Pessimistically Pondering Pinkie occasionally, and I have been thinking of ideas for sequels to some of my one shot stories. Though as of right now they are nothing more than concepts, and I couldn't tell you whether I'll go through with them or not. I don't think I'll be starting any new fanfictions, as I already have so many I want to write.
But who knows, I'm incredibly inconsistent.
I can sympathize with having the ideas, notes, but never the time. Although, I can't say I'm as swamped with work as you are, since I'm only finishing up high school and you're (from what I can tell) knee deep in college. Completely different ball park. I'm sure the work will lighten eventually, giving you a good enough breather in order to madly clack out whatever words that were held in during said work.
Don't apologize. College is rough. I'm sure you are probably writing papers on top of papers for your classes. While writing on here may be fun, it's still more of something you are already doing. Don't push yourself to the point that you don't enjoy it. Do well in your classes and come back when you have time and it's enjoyable.
I very much know how college is rough, take all the time you need, prioritize life first friend
Hey dude writing to me is an escape so you shouldn't feel like you have to apologize. School is rough but that's why people write, to help them cope with the stress. The moment you feel you can't write then everyone is okay with that. We're here for you man. Sorry if this is cheesy I'm really out of it right now
