I posted a few months ago about how I'd decided that I wasn't going to do any more fanfictions. This still stands, but it was only ass I was looking at some of my old stuff that I relised that I had a few reviews and I never knew about them. I don't know how or why, but for some reason the review people have left me (particulary on fanfiction.net) didn't get to me.
So I would just like to thank everyone who's read my stories and reviewed or just read them in general (Captain Kaz and my Dad springs to mind especially here! :P I just needed to credit that!) Writing isn't about getting a load of reviews, because in my opinion if you get just one that's good and useful then that's the best feeling in the world because you actually learn from it. Although any kind of comment is lovely. :P
I was looking at one of the reviews very randomly earlier today and I was quite overwhealmed with the response I got (especially for My Fairytale, I was very shocked with that.) I'm very touched by it all and the fanfictions will always have a special place in my writing career.
It started out as something I just enjoyed, and I still love but it's developed into more of a passion now. It's not just that though, it's my career, I'm more serious. More serious than I ever have been about it and I mean it when I say thankyou for all the support people have given me over the last couple of years. Even if it's just by looking at it and telling me you like it, it encouraged me to carry on and now here I am writing a graphic novel, about to go and study writing at university (next september), and planning of writing an actual novel. Not Doctor Who, but that's okay. I've moved on from fanfictions because I needed to. I've got ideas of my own now and I love it.
So yes, thankyou to everyone for any kind of encouragement, constructive critism, or just general help over the last four years is bascially what I'm trying to say. Without that kind of encouragement I'd have given it up and gotten nowhere. :)
