![]() Author has written 8 stories for Avatar: Last Airbender. Hey, sorry to you pplz, but I am putting all of my "continuous" stories on hiatus, (or however you want to call it o_o ). Avatar, which is all of my work, isn't releasing new episodes, so I've gotten pretty tired of it. So, I'm into other shows and animes, like Bleach, Naruto, FMA, Kodocha...etc. I do have the last chapter to my story, "To Die For." I just have to fix it up a bit more before putting it out. Yeah so basically the story is, I'm losing interest in the Avatar fandom. And, I'm also tired of the damned ship wars. Trust me...I'm REALLY tired of it. Kataangers being pms bitches and Zutarians trying to pin them with ridiculous facts from the show. I'm sick and tired of it. The reason I started writing Avatar fanfiction was because I loved the show. I loved the characters and their characteristics. I loved the artwork and animation and the basic plot of the story. What I really loved were the martial arts and the way "bending" was used artfully and skillfully against opponents. Again, I'm rambling, forgive me. xD Then, someone PM-ed and asked me why I wasn't writing, much less coming onto this site. The simple reason is...how should I say this... The "veterans" or "older" people on the site, who have been here since the site opened or w/e, start to be obnoxious and rat on a "newb" writer. They sometimes will be brutal and use profanity, or just "pettily" tell them them they should give up writing. (Mary-sues are an exception in this case) They don't realize that if they tell the "newb" writers that, it hurts. It puts down their self-esteem and confidence in writing. Everyone needs to have an escape, whether they draw, create music, or just write. And, the "veterans", they mock grammar skills or spelling errors. REALLY tiny ones in that matter. Well guess what? Their stories...yeah don't get much about them. It's all crap. All I get are about the first two sentences and that's it. Everything else is like...blahblahblah. Yes, some of the good writers, I get their stories. But some of the others...I just don't understand. Maybe I have to older, or I have wise up to actually get those stories, but really, don't go critique-ing someone else's story as crap until you've read your own. Yeah, I bet some of you never even came down until here after three reads of this long speech thing. Either way, by the time you're done reading this...my last chapter for "To Die For" should be up. It'll be my last chapter for everything. I'm not writing anymore fanfiction until I actually feel like it. Hope you guys will like my farewell chapter. P.S. I don't care if you "flamers" come and PM me about this. I won't listen any of you guy's crap like, "OMG! Are you flaming our ship!?" or, "OMG ur such a fcking hypocrite!" or, "Are you calling my stories crap just because I'm a "veteran"? Well screw you!" I'll just laugh at your stupid PMs and click the trash can in my inbox. Lates, it's been real. ~Ch3rryf1ava |
