Should I continue?

Post » Tue May 17, 2011 10:00 am

I just don't know whether to continue "The Burning Shadow".

I have been thinking of doing another fanfiction, but I don't have a lot of overall time right now. I'm kind of stuck, so, I'll take some of the opinions from my awesome buds here on the forum.

It doesn't make much difference, you don't seem to have time to work on either. Take care of the important stuff first. Flip a coin if you can't decide which you like better.

I flipped a coin and it said keep with the one you had going.

Well then, I will do that Shades. I think I'll work on it more when I have time.

I hope you continue it, I loved it when you started it. You should have written this question on the thread itself to bring it to the front so everyone would see it and start looking for it. Your writing is Awesome, your story intriguing - I will say on here what I said when you started it, "More, More!"

I would continue the current fan-fic. It defeats the pupose of trying to improve if you jump around from story to story.
Read, consider and learn from the fantastic critiques the Darkom hands out on a silver platter and put a real effort into making 'the burning shadow' the best it can be.

I agree with Winter Wolf in that jumping from story to story is usually a bad idea. However, if you find that you lack the passion to continue 'The Burning Shadow', then I would say move on to something else. You have a RP up and running so you are already practicing your craft. Good writing will come in time. Passion for your characters and their story is the single most important thing that you can have right now. And it is something that cannot be faked.

Well then. I shall continue sooner or later. I love my characters in that story. I may re-post it though, I might revise the first chapter a bit, it depends.
