User blog:Radical M/A Long and Hard Decision...

Before you all have spaz attacks and say, "BLARGH RADI, DON'T LEAVE!!!!1!!one!! IEHWFUJWEGBF," don't worry. I'm not leaving. That's not what this blog is about. I hope you read all the way through because it is really important to me.

I've been thinking a lot lately. Some people would call it "soul-searching", others would call it "banging your head against a brick wall for several hours." Basically, I'm not writing any competition stories on the wiki anymore. This may seem like a minor decision to most of you guys, but it's a pretty big decision that I'm making. I love writing on this wiki and I had all my future seasons planned out, but... I guess I just lost interest.

I was contemplating my decision for a long time. I finally came to this decision yesterday when I was talking to AJ yesterday. He had reminded me that when I was on the Total Drama Wiki a long time ago, I had written a really long "fanfic" basically on my userpage. I had spent hours on it, and I didn't even remember it. No one had even looked at it. In fact, looking back on it, it was probably the stupidest thing I had ever spent time on. But the thing is... it wasn't a waste of time. Because it was the thing that lead me to come to THIS wiki.

Basically what I'm trying to say is... planning out my stories and writing them out on this wiki wasn't a waste of time. It helped me to become a better writer. Now I need to expand my writing abilities to something else. I'm currently working on two movie scripts that I hope to direct someday. I wouldn't be able to do that without all the critique from everyone here.

That leads me to something else I want to say. It's going to be a bit cheesy, but read it anyway. :P I just want to say... and it might sound lame... but this wiki is truly something special. Maybe not to all of you, but to me, it is. You guys are like my second family. It's nice to have a place to escape all the drama and stress of high school and just talk with people who I can relate to. Honestly, it doesn't matter that I've never meant any of you, because you all mean more to me than most of the people I know in real life. That may sound rather creepy, but it's true.

So... I guess I'll end by saying this. All of your support really means the world to me. I cannot express that enough. It encouraged me to keep writing for as long as I did. It got me a Featured Story, a Wiki Award nomination, and Featured User. So to anyone who has ever supported me in any way, thank you sincerely.

Anyway, that's the end of my cheesy rant.

To anyone who's wondering, I do hope to continue posting Michael fanfics on here, if the admins continue to allow it. They won't be as common as they have been though and I will not have set dates anymore. Honestly, it's too distracting from the other stuff I want to work on.

Also, I hate to be bothersome, but if somebody could delete Total Drama Crime, Total Drama Exploration, Total Drama Unreal, and any character pages that go along with those, that would be awesome.

And I know Webly is probably dying inside, but don't worry. I'll still write for Total Drama Idiots. It wouldn't be fair to back out of it like that.

Once again, I'd like to reiterate this. Some of you may think that I wasted all my time, planning stories that I didn't write, but that is the opposite of the truth. The time I spent on this wiki might me the best way I've ever chosen to spend my time. And I mean that.

And I don't want to discourage anyone, who chooses to still write on this wiki. It will help you become a better writer, and maybe with the extra free time I have, I'll get a chance to read some more stories.

Anyway... that's it. You can leave now. No, seriously... leave. Get out off here. OMG LEAVE!!! USGYDGD*UDV

Stay radical <3
