Sorry everypony, but it's time to let go. I tried over the past... two month, I think? To write this fic and story, but I still can't seem to manage it. The story went too long without proper guidance and direction from me. I just sort of made shit up as I went and now I can't bring myself to go through the effort of re-writing it.
To all of you who waited so long for me to continue, I'm sorry.
But it isn't the end of everything. I can't bring myself to re-write this fic to give it the proper direction it needs so I can coherently move through the points I wanted to do, but that does not mean I'm done writing.
A new fic is being born. A fic I am really liking the concept of. I sat down and wrote the first bit of it today and made it through two scenes and twelve hundred words.
The great thing? I already know 90% of the story. I already know how the beginning moves to the middle and what happens there to create the ending. Everything is already lined out in my head... I just need to convert it to a story. This fic has direction. I'm not just pulling words out from beneath my tail and hoping it works this time. So long as I can keep motivated to write in general, which I almost always want to do, this fic will be finished.
So keep your eyes peeled for Fallout Equestria: Devotion and Deliverance! (Title tentative... I might change it before I publish!)
See you around, everypony!
It's been far, far too long since I updated this fic. Most of you have probably forgotten it's existence, but that's fine. I don't blame you, really. I've said I'm going to keep writing it many, many times and made many promises to come back.
I haven't kept them.
I'm sorry for that, but I just haven't been able to find the time or the will to do it. I didn't have a direction when I started this fic. Well, actually, I did, but the characters ended up deciding they wanted to do other things and my original idea for the plot kind of went down the drain. This led to a terminal case of writer's block. I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do or where I wanted to go or how I wanted to do it.
Well, that is one thing I'm changing. I have been taking a writing course at Full Sail University and my most recent class showed me some tools I can use to change that. I have some ideas and I am planning on doing a full reboot of this fic, starting today.
It will be the same cast, the same setting, the same basic plot, but I plan on removing a few things here and there and adding some others that will make everything more focused instead of all willy nilly crazy random. This will help keep me on track and, hopefully, prevent me from letting it die again.
If you are reluctant to hold your breath, I don't blame you. It may not work. I may just end up floundering again, but I think it's about time I dusted this off and either start it back up again or throw it in the trash for good. We'll just have to see which one it ends up being.
