yup, thatâs it folks. iâve been writing shikamaru for⊠i wanna say a little over half a year now. iâm done. that half year of my writing was filled with sporadic activity, and whenever i was around, it was⊠nice. i had fun, i hope you guys did too. in any case, hereâs why: i donât want to write shikamaru anymore. some stuff has happened here or there, sometimes not even relating to me, but itâs caused my view of the fandom to become⊠skewed. after a while, i got tired and felt my muse for shikamaru disappear. it came back, usually, and it felt strong when it did. however, a month would pass and iâd soon find the muse had gone again. this time itâs gone for sure. i ainât coming back.
iâm also not deleting this blog, itâll stay up and iâll still have access to it, because i donât want the good memories i have of this blog to disappear. i want to be able to look back on it and be all âyo fuck i remember those guysâ or âwow holy shit i was an idiotâ.
one way or another, thatâs the end of it. i suppose i had a good run, but who can really say, right? iâll be sticking around for questions over the next couple days, should any of you have some. best of luck to all of you!
