Stars and Shadows Forever

That is the last fanfic I will ever write, as it is time consuming, takes a lot of hard work and time, and few people will read them. I  spent a total writing time of over 96 hours (not consecutive) on the last one, and very few people read it. It is extremely depressing to spend that much hard work on a fanfic, not to mention the pain it causes me to type, and have no one read it. I am finished with fanfics indefinitely. But I would like to thank the few people who took time to read my fanfic; you know who you are; you are the only ones who make me feel like I haven't wasted my time, energy, and life on writing. As for all else, I am sick, depressed, and life is too short to waste effort on something that serves no purpose; especially when you have health as poor as mine. :-(
I hope that those of you who have read it enjoyed it; I'm not writing anymore.
Good day! >-(
Ah, i see.. um and I loved ur fanfics,.. i used to read them [my old sn was psychicfox2302] and you are one of best writers! Keep going doing that in your school! Good luck!:cool:
OMG, are you really psychicfox2302?! Cuz I used to see you around... had no idea you changed. Well, I guess you learn somethin new every day!

Anyway, sorry! *Ahem* About the fanfics: I really like your fanfics, but if you want to stop writing them, well, that's up to you. I write for personal enjoyment- maybe you should try that for a change. It's a lot better than worrying about what other people thing after busting your butt writing them. That's what JRR Tolkien did- he wrote for enjoyment and never expected his books to be popular, but well, enough said. I assume you've heard of The Lord of the Rings. :;): Anyway, you've probably had a lot more people read your stuff than you'd think- this is the internet, after all. If you do decide to write any more, just let us know!
I may have given up writing, but not drawing; I need to post some of my artwork up here. Has improve since I got that Intuos 3 tablet and all.

Sorry You won't be writting anymore :(  But if You're not having fun   there is no point is continuing :)
i know the feeling when you say no-one reads them, thats how i felt when i stopped writing, i thought to myself, i'm writing so others can enjoy my work, if no-one reads them whats the point, but you will find that people do like your work. and will complain when you stop producting it, i know i had people complain to me that i had stopped, trust me people read fanfic's, it's just there are so many, and they take time to read, so it's hard to get people to read yours sometimes, but be sure if some people like one of your fics they will go back and read another.
*nods* Young wolf understand. Old wolf must follow heart.

Er... yeah...

Well, nobody's read my fanfics either. So I guess we have that in common. :) BTW, I had started to read yours, but never finished... just know that I did make an effort... just not a good one. Lol, no, really, though, I have been reading a little bit, stopping, then continuing. I'm just a "lurks-in-the-shadows" type of reader. ;)

I keep writing only because, regardless of the number of reviews and comments I get, I am still pursuing my dream of a career as an author. Please, pay no attention to the old crap I have lying around various fansites.... my writing is (I hope) improving all the time... so really, my work gets "outdated" constantly. ;P
I know what you mean, NeonFlash. There's stuff that at the time I wrote it thought it was just great, then looked back a couple years later and wondered if I had even been thinking.

Anyway, that's a very good drawing, DesertEagleStar. You have a good chance as an artist, even if you've given up writing.
Thats too bad you won't be writing anymore. but Thats good you're drawing. Very good art.
:D
cool but it's too short
