Chapter Text
alright guys. It's been a while. This is the longest that i have gone since updating this fic. It's been three months.
I'm not going to lie, motivation to write this has been kicking my ass. It was really hard to get myself to work on this. And then I got into writing a new fic and this one got shelved. But I finished that fic and now nothing is really wanting to be written and it's kind of making me mad.
Here's the deal. There are a couple reasons why I shelved working on this fic. (Note the shelved and not abandon please.)
1) I hate some of the writing. Don't get me wrong, I've defenently written worse and my docs can attest to that. but it's really hard to work on this if there are chapters that I can't even look at.
2) I hate how I handled some of the direction for this fic. Look I like all of the characters I brought into this universe, but writing all of them is hard. I know that I have been ignoring some of their POV's. My brain doesn't like writing from all of the different pjo characters. Originally it was supposed to be the seven + Luke, Reyna, Nico, and Will. I had them all set to be brought in at 30k intervals. I no longer think that I can handle all of them at the same time.
3) I liked the direction I was going in, but I hated how I was doing it. I like all three arcs. The thing with my writing is that I'm unfortunately very fond of filler. Some of this was for the better and others for the worse.
So, all of this to be said, I don't like abandoning fics. Cliffhangers, sure. But I've openly talked about having the three arcs and here we are *squints* no arc three in sight.
Now there's a couple ways we can handle this. I keep pushing but likely continue struggling to write. I can leave this the way it is. OR I can do a re-write. As of right now, I'm leaning towards the last option. Right now, it's looking like the only project that my brain really wants to focus on, and I would like to make this better.
If I were to do a re-write, how would y'all want me to go about this. Do you want me to replace chapters or start from a completely new work? I would also like to know if there are any scenes we would want to see and i can see what I can do. But I can't do this if you don't comment with an answer
yours truly,
Vampire.
