Author's Interlude: New Story Changes

Previous Chapter

Hey guys, how's it going? Good, I hope. Now, I know for some of you reading this, you might find what I'm about to say a little upsetting. Of course, you may have been enjoying the ride so far and are dying to see what happens next in the final two-three chapters remaining in this story. However, after some debate with other authors and within my own person, I've decided that change is in order. During my tenure here on fimfic, I've improved myself as a writer and have developed newer techniques that can increase the effectiveness of my writing. When I first started on this site, I didn't have that much of a clue on how to write properly, even if it was only for fanfiction. But any form of literature, is still literature.

Now that I have over three years of writing on my belt, I can say, without a shred of doubt, I can write something better than what you see now. If you didn't my blog post, then yes, I am talking about this story in particular. I had gone back to read certain chapters and, well, up to the middle of chapter five is where I took things further than they were supposed to go. I'm sorry to say that I made this up as I went along and I believe it deserved much more than that. In truth, I did whatever popped into my head and transformed what was supposed to be a romance story including one of my favorite MLP characters, into this needless drama-filled crime fic. Not at all what I intended. Looking at the ratings I've gotten, as well as a review from a colleague of mine, I realized that I can indeed do better than what I wrote during this story's inception. Write something that is deserving of 300+ upvotes. As I said before, I know some of you may not agree with what I'm about to do (deleting all the previous chapters), but I guarantee something better will take the place of what once was.

So, later this week, probably on Friday or Saturday, I'll be deleting chapters 6-13. Chapter 5 is where I'll be making the basis of the new story changes. I'll be taking out some characters that didn't matter too much and changing dialogue here and there. Now, again, I apologize in advance to you faithful readers who supported this work of mine, but now is the time for new things to come forth. I know you probably enjoyed the ride, but now you can get in line for a new one. And yes, you don't have to be this tall to ride it. Let me know what y'all think in the comments. And with that, I hope you all have a nice week. Peace out.
