March Update: the return, Pokemon, and future story plans
7 years ago
General
Hey all! I have returned after being silent for 2 weeks. Here are some things you should know / stuff I want to talk about.
Stories and Future Series
I have made a realization that I have to take a break from writing series. Besides the fact that I take way too long in between parts to sufficiently post and maintain content, they are not nearly as high quality as I would like them to be. I have read a few story series while I was gone, some new from favorite artists and some old ones I had enjoyed, and realized that my writing style is still very flawed. I don't have good sentence structure, there is a lot of repetition, and the dialogue and details are greatly lacking.
Therefore this will be my last series for a while. I plan on pushing out the last parts of the current one (sentient diaper) as fast as I can while still maintaining some semblance of quality. Then I will take a break from long story writing and focus on short stories. My next series I would love to do another Twokinds fanfic, but in order to succeed at that I'm going to have to do a lot of development as I really want to write a high quality piece if I was to write on a series as... down right amazing as Twokinds. From there I have some ideas to sequels but I'm not at that point yet. From there no ideas come to mind for future stories.
So yeah. Summed up I need to develop my writing more, to make it more detailed and interesting plus I have to find ways of writing more quickly.
Social activity on here
I am going to change my philosophy about commenting on here. As I said before, my goal the past few months was to comment on as much art as I can giving each piece I find and found enjoyable as much praise as I could. However, recently this has quickly backfired on me as comments I left with good intentions on other pics had somehow been interpreted as insults by other artists and I managed to make a few enemies in February. This led to me being AFK on here, so I think I''m just going to go back to lurking and not post any more comments on other art. It's not worth... I want to say something rude, but I'll just say routinely praising artists only for one comment to land you either banned or in hot water with someone. Ugh...
Pokemon Gen 8:
Last piece I want to touch on, new pokemon baby!!!
What I liked: It's based on a real region (UK,) the graphics look amazing, so far not as many new pokemon which shows they can make games without pumping out hundreds of new ones, for some reason they put the Carne Abbus Giant in the game even though I think it's a kids game?
I have no idea what starter team I am on yet. I know a lot of people like the fire and water ones but IMO I'm not impressed with any yet. My guess is like gen 6 they all turn into much cooler ones their 2nd or 3rd evolutions. So I'm still undecided.
In any case, I'm super pumped for the release! My guess is Thanksgiving.

Sorry to hear about the blowback on comments. I never even considered a scenario like that. For what it's worth, I always appreciate a comment of yours on what I have to share! Hopefully you'll warm back up to posting again.
