Well. I suppose I've felt some sense of futility in my Zutaran works. People are drifting away from their story, into new fandoms and obsessions. Despite what everyone may believe LOVE doesn't last forever. It fades ... or events 'remove' one of the lovers ... I think the thing that keeps me drawing them is the need to finish the project I started ... AND the scarce feedback that still trickles in even after all this time. You are my favorite Zutaran Smutfic writer of all time. <3 So, I am grateful for your contributions to my beloved fandom. (and I'm pleased they will live on even after your interests have moved elsewhere, so new fans can enjoy them.) The whole thing is just so sad. But I will still look back on aspects of it fondly. Most importantly Zuko and Katara's love story MOVED ME to draw after many years. For that I'll be eternally thankful. Through the Zutaran fandom I also met so many interesting people. And I felt like we all stood stronger together. But it could just be my wonky perceptions ... I did think for a time that Zuko and Katara might actually get together, so perhaps my perceptions are not the best. :) But I am glad I 'met' you and was able to read your writing. And I hope someday to read more ...
I was sort of getting into DEATHNOTE at one point but ... I drifted away ... I liked L. losing him ... I lost some interest. But perhaps your fiction would make me revisit it. :)
As for your personal life ...
Congratulations! :) (on all fronts!)
And my best wishes for your extreme happiness! ^____^
This too shall pass ...
