I know I haven't been on here for a really long time, but I just wanted to take a moment to write a short note.
I'm sorry. I really am. I went ahead and posted all these messages about how I refused to stop writing Fate/Stay and how I'd never lose connection to that story and those characters — and yet, I stopped writing. And that sucks, and I'm sorry.
At first, I didn't have a reason to stop writing. I just didn't know where the story was going. I had a plan for the ending, I still do, but I didn't know how to get the story to that point.
Then, as more time went on without even attempting to write another chapter, I just lost it. I lost the entire feeling for the story, the characters, the plot, the idea itself. It didn't seem worthy to me to continue it.
But today, as I think back about this story and me giving up on it, I think it's been good. It's been healthy for me to be away from it and just restart my brain when it comes to writing. I took a course in school that helped me look at my own writing in a different way. It helped me develop and mature when it comes to writing.
I'm going to be honest and say that I don't miss Fate/Stay, because I don't, but I miss that era. I was really passionate about that kind of fan fiction, and posting new chapters and getting comments and votes.
But I haven't just matured in my writing, I've quite literally matured in myself too. And Wattpad isn't the platform I want to post my writings to anymore. I've changed the way I look at my own writing and the way I perceive it — but I've also changed the way I look at publishing fiction online and the way I get feedback.
I see you people still voting and commenting, and it truly warms my heart. But, I'm sorry, as of today I have no plans on continuing Stay.
Thank you for your support, it's meant a lot to me. x
