So, you may or may not have noticed my sudden disappearences. I'm going to take the time now to fully explain why I don't use this site any more.

It's pretty obvious that AFF is a fanfiction site, and, having finished my last fanfiction I don't feel the need to continue visiting this site. I take long breaks away, visiting only once a week and not really communicating with many people. In all honesty, I'm more active on my wattpad than I am on here.

Recently I deleted all of the shops (including the writing contest) on my BirthofDreams account. There are still stories on there (some oneshots I'd finished), and those are not going to be deleted. They won't be updated, but I'm planning on using that account now purely as a storage-type account. The unfinished stories on that account I'm planning on someday continuing and finishing them as completely original fantasy novels. You may know that I'm more into fantasy than I am anything else, and I'm going to try giving dark fantasy a go at some point.

There's been a lot happening and I just felt like it was finally time to step down from fanfiction and focus on more important things. Any forwords on here that I had (such as Ethereal) will in fact be continued as stories, however not as fanfiction. I know a lot of you subscribed to these stories but I have thing more important than fanfiction to focus on and the only way these stories will ever be written is if I turn them into original fiction.

I will, however, inform every one with blogs when I finish or even upload to wattpad the fanfictions/now original fictions. I don't want to lose contact with any of you and I truely love your support, but AFF isn't the place for me anymore. So I am sorry, but life goes on and the only way we can survive is by moving with it.

So yeah... I suppose this is my goodbye to AFF. It was nice while it lasted, but this isn't the place for me anymore. I'll come back once a week as usual but you probably won't notice. I'll also try to get the last chapter of Paper Plane written when I can. Not sure when that will be but yeah. It'll be done.
