Riley's favourite pastime

Sorry guys

Mon Nov 9, 2009, 5:55 PM
It looks like the 20,000th hit thing isn't happening. I ended up too distracted/busy and just couldn't get the motivation to write anything.
Even when I could get motivated, something would usually buzz kill me.

It bothers me because I know there are a lot of people that enjoy my material. Yes, there are those who don't like my material but that's just fine. It would be a boring and very creepy world if we all thought the same and had the same likes and dislikes.

Anyway though, I doubt anyone wants me to me whine and complain.

All I can say is that I'm sorry.

Hey, what's your FF.net site? You mentioned it, but the ff.net link simply directed to the front page.

If you're curious, the main reason I don't really update it anymore is because "Rusty and Rascal's Den" is an outdated title. "Rascal" and I (I don't think he uses the name) don't really speak anymore and haven't for some time. I know that isn't much of an excuse. Changing it to Rusty's Den however would feel mean.

Part of it is also being easier to post stories here and on ff.net. Posting on the site requires some file editing that while not *that* hard still adds the extra work that DA and ff.net don't have.

DA and ff.net also allow for easier feedback.

I admit that it sometimes feels weird posting a story on the site that I've had here or on ff.net for some time. It feels weird as it's not really a new story.

Some of it is also posting stories here in chapters. Doing so feels more natural on ff.net and also seems okay here. On the site however, it just doesn't feel right.

Another part of it is traffic on the site being down. I know part of that is because I'm not really updating the site anymore. It's sort of the chicken and egg where having more visitors and activity on the forum might make it seem more worth it to keep updating the site but the lack of updates is probably cause of the lack of activity.

I know it might just seem like I'm making excuses. I guess I could post a couple of shorts on it.
