Update

1 min read
I've decided to just keep my account around to hold the stuff I have released from storage again. I won't really be releasing anything else that's still in storage though.

In terms of my new work, most of it is being posted off site, if it's being shared at all, so if I do decide to upload any of my new work here it'll be in batch uploads I do once a month or something like that. I don't believe I'll ever be as active on this site as I once was.

Also, this new website design they have for the site is gross and I'm so glad I can transfer back to the old one. So much ew.

Your voices are loud.

What I mean is, I have taken the time to read through the number of emails and other messages I have received on various platforms since my decision to leave this site and I must say, you guys have a lot to say. Truly.

I will be honest. It was a hard decision for me to make and it wasn't one that I made lightly. With that said, as I said, I DID read all your messages everywhere you guys sent them and I thought I would address them all in the place you all came to me from.

In reality, I have not enjoyed my work since the time between 2009 and 2012. I feel as though my work started to fall apart around 2013 and I haven't really been happy with what I've been posting since the middle of 2014 onward... Or rather, the reason I have been posting I suppose.

I have heard you. I have heard you loud and clear and I have this to say to everyone who managed to chase me down in places like WattPad and FF.net, even some who managed to track me down on Twitter and the more obscure places I never meant for people to find me in.

I will consider it. I will consider returning to deviantART.

To show that I have taken careful consideration of this over the last week, I have gone through nearly 50 pages of storage and unstored a number of my deviations from 2009 to present. I may comb through and unstore more depending on my mood.

IF I am to do this, and this is a strong if, I will be getting more back to my roots. The roots I had from the time I posted between 2009 and 2012. The time when I posted for myself and no one else (and primarily posted Devil May Cry related stuff). The truth is, I DO enjoy sharing my work with people but somewhere along the way, my reason for being here got lost in the shuffle and things ended up muddled and murky to the point I could no longer see who I was anymore when I started.

Full disclosure. I don't have the time for my work, written or otherwise, like I used to and in reality I likely won't ever have that kind of time again as my life goes on, but when I do I really have enjoyed sharing it with people. People like you.

I am still seeing notifications from people about my decision and I am still reading them, even if I'm not responding to them. Like I said, I will consider it all. I miss the place that this used to be for me and all your messages have helped me see a brief glimpse of what that was like way back when.

I haven't made any solid decisions just yet and as it stands, my most up-to-date work can be found off site. Possibly, for the sake of those who were avidly following my stories, I may start posting the new chapters again once things are a little more settled. Once I've reached a final decision regarding this place.

Thank you to all of you who reached out to me off site. It's people like you that make the creative process so enjoyable.

UPDATE: I have decided to leave this website permanently. This place has become a stain on my life and I need to distance myself from it. I'll be posting my work elsewhere from now on. All my work here has been thrown in storage until I figure out what to do with this account.

It was fun while it lasted but this place is just toxic now. Sorry folks.

--

I have really not been around much at all the last little while.

I haven't had much to post and quite frankly his place doesn't really feel the same anymore.

I'll probably come back to post some work here and there but please don't expect to see much of me. I'm honestly tempted to completely shut this account down and possibly restart under a new name because there is so much crap associated with this one now I just can't seem to claw myself away from it. That and nearly everyone I knew from back in my heydays is gone and long since moved on and I don't really feel like getting personal with new people on this site.

Anyways, I tend to post my work, if I do, on places like Wattpad, FanFiction.net or even my tumblr when I'm posting work for stuff I'm doing on Twitter.

That's primarily where I am these days. Twitter.

I've rekindled my love with the Supernatural fandom and found my place among family and friends I've missed for so long and I feel right at home there.

I may or may not post some of my solo stories from the role playing I've been doing there; depends on how I'm feeling about this account.

In the meantime, if you happen to be capable of tracking me down on Twitter, feel free to hit me up.

Otherwise it's been a slice. Maybe I'll come back, maybe I won't. Time will tell I suppose.

Been a while once again.

I've become bogged down with life and college and all things career related so I apologize for all my projects falling to the wayside (mostly my stories).

I'm in pursuit of teaching people how to write (like fictional writing and such) as well as writing my own screenplays/novels and as it stands I have to really focus on my studies at school. I'm going for my masters at the moment (and if I intend to teach at universities I need my doctorate) so I haven't had much time to focus on my personal projects here such as my fan fiction.

That aside I've really been working on my more personal projects like my novels. I've completely reworked the stories of a number of them, most notably di-moni-ak; the work that features my character Memphis that a lot of you are more than likely familiar with if you've read my Devil May Cry work.

At any rate, I'm planning on possibly overhauling my profile here on deviantART to clean it up and such. May even start posting some of my paintings from this year. We shall see what the future holds.

Hope you're all doing well!

For those of you who don't know, I started writing some reader insert stories labelled 'Your Routine' with the Sparda Boys and Nero as the main focus back in... What. 2010? 2012? Eh.

Anyways I know that a LOT of people were asking for sequels to those reader inserts for a very VERY long time; probably about as long as they asked me for the one about Nero, and I know I have said I would work on some from time to time if I could think of a way to continue them...

So, with that said.
I have an idea.
Don't get so excited.
But it starts with Nero.
Then perhaps Dante.
Vergil is still fickle. I suspect I will have to wait for his.

I will be making a few more sub-folders within my fan fiction gallery to place those ones, if I haven't done so already, in an attempt to kind of make this a little series with the individual boys like people were asking me for way back in the stone ages.

I will also be taking suggestions for other characters... Like Sparda. I very vaguely recall someone asking me about a Sparda one.

Anywho.
This was intended to be a quick post so that is all.
As you were.
