Separated from what I knew (jjbaxrwby)

Discontinued

To the people who came here for a story, sorry.

To the people who were with me since the beginning of this story, sorry.

Anyway, like I stated in my previous A/N, I decided to keep updating but said updates would be quite rare. I also stated that if an update about my update schedule were to come out, it wouldn't be anything good for said update schedule.

After much thought, I ultimately decided to stop writing this book for good.

Honestly, I'm pretty bummed out about this too. But don't worry, I've got my reasons.

Like before, I said that a big reason why I wasn't writing as much was due to a lack of motivation to write and continue the story. That's also a reason here, but I have others too.

I knew that this story would never be anything really popular. I would probably only get a few permanent readers, and I was fine with that when I first started. But as time went on, I realized that in fact, having some real feedback was something that I craved, not just a few votes and views.

I dunno. The more I progressed with this story, the more I felt unmotivated. It felt like I was writing for a bunch of bricks that would give me their votes and views, but never any real feedback even when I asked for some. So why keep writing a story that I know won't get any feedback, even though the notifications I do get are some people giving me their votes. I dunno about you, but that makes it suck even more; knowing that there are indeed people reading your stuff, but staying quiet.

I understand why people don't like commenting. What if the person doesn't like what I say? What if they think I'm vying for attention? What if they think I'm a brat? I get it, and I don't fault anybody for not wanting to say anything or simply don't know what to say at all. Despite understanding that, it still really sucks, ya know?

Another reason is that this is, indeed, my first story. Thus, I'm very inexperienced. I can see how flawed my writing is in some places, and that's why I think I'm going to take a step back from this story.

When I first started writing and setting up plot points, I felt pretty good. But well, I more I wrote and the more I analyzed my writing, as well as the times I WAS writing, the more I felt that I couldn't do the story I had crafted any proper justice. The characters I wanted to explore, the settings, themes.... I only just began to realize how complicated it all is. Worst of all, even if I did have a grasp of that, I couldn't even deliver that with words properly.

It was just starting to feel so damn complicated, and every time I tried to write, the thoughts of what I wanted to write were crisp and clear, but the words I could find to describe them were few.

It really, really sucks though. I actually really did want to tell the story I had in mind.

Those are my main reasons. So like I said, sorry.

I still plan to write in the future, but they will either be simple short stories or maybe even one-shots. It all depends on how I feel.

I've been debating whether or not I should keep this book up, but I decided that I would, just in case anybody would like to read through whatever I did have or would like to re-read some of the chapters.

So to everyone who read through this all, thank you, and have a good day.
