[Fanfic] Red West II. - Summing up

Jul 31, 2017 13:51

Dear RW readers, either commenting or silent ones...

2 years and 4 months... 45 chapters... That long took me to finish the second part of Red West. I haven´t realized it has been so long, until I checked the posting date of the 1st chapter. When I had started with RW, I wouldn´t have even imagined that it would get stuck with me for so long...


It wasn´t easy to reach this point of the story. It was not only about Jin and Kame anymore, even though those two remained the main characters. Since I included many additional personas, even historical ones and I didn´t put them there to be just in the background, there was a lot more to write and I had to think about it carefully. And even though all of this stole me for a lot of free time, it was fun, it was emotional and I´m going to miss it as hell. But hopefully, not for long... I already have some ideas for continuation on my mind and I´ll be happy to share them with you, when the right time comes.

AKame community on LJ had grown somewhat quiet during past few years and it´s not surprising, I get it. People change, grow up and move on. It´s a natural development, but it still makes me feel sad and so nostalgic about the times, when it was much livelier here, because AkaKame still mean so much to me....

So, this is actually my plea towards all of you - and I mean really ALL of you, who found the time to read my story. If there is anything you´d like to comment, to recommend, to wish for, to complain about, you have a chance now. Let me know what you liked, what you disliked, which character you´d like to see more, what you laughed about the most, what you cried about, what pissed you off. Any opinion or advice will be highly appreciated.

I´m not that type of an author, who would stop writing just because of the lack of reactions, but each and every comment can be that greatest kick, which keeps me from giving up. It´s very important for me to know that YOU are out there waiting for a new chapter. And I can promise you there IS something to wait for. Even though RW II. turned out to be quite long, there are still many things to tell and many... ehm, perverted ideas of mine to use on Akame. XD

But for now - I need a break. No matter how much I enjoy writing this story, there were parts really difficult to create and it feels like I´ve used up all of my specific plans and energy. I´m officially entering the hiatus from writing with uknown termination...
Well, and now I´m on the same boat with our dear Captains, right? XD

And finally, my huge THANK YOU belongs to everyone, who ever commented on any of the chapters, but most of all, to my dear sister, who is with me in this since the very beginning and also to Atago-kun, whose beta-reading makes the whole RW much more attractive.

Thank you all for being here with me.

Kamenashi-san, Akanishi-san,
Thank you for making my life happier.
亀梨さん、赤西さん、
私の人生をより幸せにするためにありがとうございました。
