Cancellation & Rewrite Notice

Hello loyal readers! Well, at least if you haven't given up on seeing me update ever again. I wanted to let you know that I have finally come to a decision on this story. For those of you who haven't been reading my updates on my profile I'll fill you in on what's been going on. For a VERY long time I have been struggling with this story. Writing became a chore for me due to some of the stuff I had to deal with. It lost it's fun and frankly suffered due to that. From the time I started Ripto's Wrath until now, my experience as a writer had grown by leaps and bounds. I often look back and cringe at some things, others make me facepalm.

Grammar sadly wasn't the only problem though. Through my story I trapped myself with certain facts that made it difficult for the story to go in the direction I wanted. Some characters all but disappeared. This was mainly due to the fact I wrote this before the third game came out. It's like writing a Harry Potter fanfic before finding out he's a wizard. Anyways, I also left the two main characters no room to grow. They were already perfect and complete as people, or dragons I guess.

Truthfully, I was ready to give up on this story and just post a summary and maybe a few important short scenes of what I had planned for the end. I had already started the process of making a Skylanders story that tied into The Legend of Spyro series. That's when it hit me, why not have both.

So as the title says, I am officially canceling this story to rewrite it and Ripto's Wrath. I will be of course using the bones of the story I have already, just breathing new life into it. Much will be changed, for the better I hope. The Skylanders won't be a huge part in the story and I'm still deciding when I want them to come in, but they will be an important factor. I will also be writing this to take place after the third game so titles of the story and the antagonist might have to change too. I know this might upset some of you, but it's what my gut says is best. I have always followed my instincts when writing, and if they allowed me to gain so many fans, I must do this too.

Now, I frankly don't know when the first chapter will be out since I literally thought of this about two hours ago. I will keep the original stories up and post the new ones separately. I will make an update to this when I post the new story so that those who follow the story and not me as an author will get notified.

Well, that's all you'll get out of me for now. Hope I smoothed a few hackles and renewed some lost faith you have in me. Til next time. Later.
