Back!

Sorry about the lack of ...anything over the past year.

Life sort of kicked me in the face... a lot. It wasn't fun. But that's just how life is and all that matters is I'm back now.

So on to the fanfiction news.

Like I've put up on my ffnet profile, here's my updating schedule for the period of March 29th to April 12th.
  • Fairy Tail Oneshot
  • Another Fairy Tail Oneshot
  • KHR Story: Chapter 1
  • Detour to Evolution: Chapter 13
  • Against the Odds: Chapter 14
I'll add the stories/chapters -one on any random day- in that specific order during the next two weeks.

I'll also try to update this blog with content in between those updates.

Speaking about the blog, some of you sent in messages through the ask page and I'm going to answer a few here.

1. To everyone who sent in the messages asking if I was all right/to give some proof of life/etc. There were quite a lot of you, which surprised me but thank you. Thank you for your concern and all the sweet messages. I'm sorry for worrying you guys with my absence. I wish I could explain why I had gone off the radar, so to speak, but I'd rather just focus on getting stuff done now. And I hope life gives you all some good karma for being so wonderful.

2. To the person who had this in their long message "...I'd be willing to put a dollar or three in the pot for a chapter - or even an omake. You don't update often enough I'd go bankrupt and hey, I'm earning money now (not much but $5-10 or so a year? Do able). It's just a suggestion, so please don't get insulted or anything, I just miss your work."

You, my reader, are crazy and awesome. I'm flattered that you'd want to pay anything for AtO's chapters but no, I'd never ask for money to get a chapter out. If you have money to spare, then do something positive with it- save it for your future or donate it to a worthy charity. I write fanfiction to level up my writing skills and to get some feedback. So, leaving a comment or review is all the payment I'll ever need.

3. "What do you feel about the latest naruto chapters and have you been reading the attack on titan manga?"

The latest Naruto chapters... well, they have some awesome moments. I especially loved Sakura's bits. Loved seeing Team 7 together for the little while. Loved Sai, especially when he noticed the still present cracks in Team 7. Liked seeing the Hokages and especially Minato. Like seeing bits of history of the ninja nations.
But I think on the whole, I'm tired of it. The villain(s) disappoint me. A lot. And there's other stuff, little stuff that piles on the irritation with each chapter.  Naruto, just end this agonizing war and become the damn Hokage already!

Attack on Titan- I remember reading it when there were 10-15 chapters out. But it didn't hold my attention enough to keep following it. Unlike others in the genre like Claymore and Berserk, I didn't actively anticipate new chapters so I didn't continue reading.

Polar.
P.S. It'll take time to reply to old PMs and stuff of FFnet, so bear with me while I get to replying.
