#I watch this show w my mom as our quality bonding time & I don't want to cut her out of that

[burned-lariat]

Yeah, after seeing everyone's reactions and posts, I think I'm gonna join y'all in a hiatus.

...Kind of.

Truth be told, yesterday was it for me. I'm angry at everything I'm seeing and I'm so fucking done with this show's bullshit agenda and lack of care, among other things. The head writers lack creativity (at a minimum) and Korte has way too much power and influence while Frank does nothing about it. It's enraging and I need a stopgap before it kills me.

With that said, I will still be posting fic updates and continuing my GH writings. I hope everyone who is reading them continues to read them - your support is everything. I want to continue what I'm doing with HTKHWD and SCR, for one. I also want to follow through on some other plans I have:

A Nina/Willow fix-it fic

A YA fic with the inclusion of SORASed Emma Drake & Alec Barrett

A Sprina fic (still figuring out the overall theme/plot)

Assorted one-shots

Potential sequel fics to some works (we'll see - eyeing HTKHWD and maybe TTFE)

I also want to try and get a start on some more original works and get back to writing poetry (I have "published" some if anyone's interested). So overall, I'm still writing, but in terms of watching the show every day...not so much.

Next week seems like a near-complete skip, but the week of the 10th sounds better, so I plan to watch for the characters and spoilers that don't sound like it'll spike my blood pressure. It'll be intermittent watching, in a way.

Anons - please continue sending asks. Don't think that because I'm on a "sabbatical" that I still can't reply or anything. My inbox is still open, and I always enjoy hearing from you. Whatever you want to say about the show or characters or writing, I'm all ears.

Let's see how this goes, shall we? 😬
