Bonjour!
This is not an update to Seul Rouge, I'm afraid. And I apologize to anyone who was bored enough to be excited, thinking that it was. I have some news regarding the story though.
I realize that there are not many people actually reading the story anyway, but if you are, then I guess this is for you, or more likely me because I would hate to think that there might be one person waiting for an update and if that were the case, I'd hate to disappoint you.
Though, if you're out there, I'm afraid I must. So here's the deal:
I was working on the story and I backtracked to re-read some things and I realized, that this is not at all how I wanted the story to go. I was so proud of myself with the prologue and then the first and second chapter (which I have written but not yet posted the 2nd) seriously disappointed me. Where had my writing spark gone?
You know when you start a story, and everything you think about leads back to it and you can't stop thinking about it or wait to get back to the keyboard to write more? Well I LOVE that feeling. Really, I do. And that's how I was with the prologue, but I get so excited that I don't put enough time into the other chapters because i want to get them out there and see what people think that they suck major butt. And not only am I unhappy with it, but I don't see how anybody else could like it either. So I realized that i spent a long time on the first four pages (the prologue) before I posted it and hardly any time at all on the first chapter.
So in conclusion, because if you're still reading, which I doubt, then you're probably close to falling asleep, I am going to stop posting for a while, or if you'd like to look at it another way, it will just be a lot longer in between posts, so that I can relax and just..... write. And have fun with it, because that is why I wanted to do this story in the first place.
So I am going to go onto my harddrive and delete everything after the prologue and rewrite it. And I am not going to stress about updating once a week. it's too much pressure. Once i am a few chaopters ahead, maybe I'll start posting again, you know? Just so I don't have to worry. And hey, mayeb I'll even get a beta. :)
Thanks for reading, if you have been, and I hope that when I do get the stroy out, it will be better than anyone expected. :) I just want to do my best. And i don't want to get frustrated with my sucky work and give up on it altogether, because I tend to do that. lol
Thanks again, Sammie_3
