What in Tartarus is wrong with me?! I receive one well aimed compliment and I write the first chapter, or prologue if you will, of a new story in under three hours! I then have the gall to publish said story immediately with a cursory look over, it has a dark tag AND Pinkie Pie.
What in Celestia's name was i thinking?
I now have not one, not two but three stories that I'm working on simultaneously. I can't even perform regular updates on one story (Sorry Amnesia fans) I'm not even great with grammar and I'm shy to the point of almost fearing to look for an editor of any great skill. I mean, why should? I'm a small time author, why should I expect any of the even remotely skill editors to consider my request? (VDtheBrony omitted because he offered his services)
*sigh* I'm a terrible person. If you're reading this, it's because, through sheer dumb luck, I've managed to snare you in one of my stories and then I go and be a complete jerk and spend weeks pushing out chapters how long has it been since I've updated Amnesia? *checks* months now...
I need to organize myself and set out a writing schedule and some outlines... because make no mistake... I'm taking s*** seriously now!
No more games.
No more reading.
No more Doctor Who...
No more staring out the window pointlessly.
I know that I'm basically entertaining you for free and that I shouldn't expect you to expect me to hold to any kind of time table, but it's my responsibility to finish these fictions because I drew you into them. It would be downright cruel of me to bring you into a story and then not finish it because I couldn't be bothered to sit down and pound my head into the keyboard until something legible comes out. besides, the sooner I finish these fics the sooner I can start pumping out everything else that resides in my head. I have a duty to you, to do this.
I'm not particularly popular on this site, or skilled, or well known even and that's okay by my standards, I'm not doing this to be popular. but know that I value each and every one of you. every watch, every fave, every comment, each and every view that has ever accumulated on one of my fics.
The feeling of euphoria I get when I see someone take the time to show some kind of acknowledgment for any of my work, even the lurkers who just view the story... It's like nothing I've ever felt before. I owe it to you all to get my head into gear and be the best I can be.
Time to stop messing around... Allons-y!
I thought I was the only one who did that... I guess great minds who write Amnesia fan-fics do think alike
Were it not for staring pointlessly (if not necessarily out the window), I'd never have gotten anything written.
