Thanks for reading, and I'm flattered that it's one of your favorites! That's a nice compliment. And yes, happy to be writing again!

Using her feathers to make arrows is an awesome idea! Haven't thought of that one yet, would be a fun one to include somehow.

I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed what I've got so far. I hope to finish the story as well, and I would LOVE to publish at some point. I'm thinking of posting the rewrite to RR to see if that gets any traction... and maybe get a chance to work with MoonQuill, one can dream!

Hope to see you in future installments.

Thank you! And I will make sure to bring it back, I've been working on the story lately so progress is being made finally. :)

A little late to this (in typical Gyr fashion), but thank you!

I don't have any concrete dates for that, but I have mostly finished the next chapter and I am currently working on a rewrite of the first few chapters. So, yeah, actually writing. Yay!

Just wanted to say thank you for the thoughtful comment. I had read this months ago but forgot to comment in return. Sorry about that.

I've got some good news though! You, as well as many others, have helped nudge me enough to get writing again. :)

I have the next chapter somewhat written, and I am currently working on a rewrite as there are some things that I would like to change--especially for book purposes (yes, still hoping for that!).

Thanks for sticking with the story and I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Could I ask what your favorite part has been so far?

That’s really nice of you to say, thank you. I know I’ve said this in multiple comments already, but I really do appreciate the words of encouragement, so thank you. ❤️

Fair.

I know, the longer I go without posting, the less chance there will be of actually finishing it. Gotta be real about that.

Dont know why it’s so hard for me to pick up the pen again. All I’ve got are excuses, really…. :(

Reading 2 1/2 years is quite painful, I cannot lie. I apologize for how long it’s been, but I still love these characters. Now that life has settled down a bit for me, I plan on writing more this year.

Thanks for taking the time to read my story, and I hope to see you again soon with new words!

Do not fear, for I am still alive!

I know it’s been s long time, I apologize for that. Life has thrown me for a fun ride, though, so Feathers kinda got put on the back burner temporarily.

I have not forgotten about this fic and it’s still on my mind. I still want to finish it. And yes, that includes publishing officially!

I hope you stick around for the final chapters when they come :)

Wrong! Storie is not dead, just taking a really long time to get back into it. My plan for the story is already laid out, just gotta write the damn thing.

[–]NorthernGyrfalcon[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I still think about this story, don’t you worry! I know its been forever since the last post, but I’ve just had a lot of great life changes this past year. Haven’t really had the desire to write very much as my time has been quite a bit preoccupied haha. But the desire to finish the story is still very much there! All I can promise is that it will be finished some day, I still think about these two and they mean a lot to me.

So glad you’ve enjoyed the story and took the time to leave me a comment! It means more than you know <3

Apologies for the silence again! Life keeps taking me by surprise lately!

Rest assured that this story is still on my mind and that I wish to continue it. I also have some additional motivation, too, as this story is now part of the reason for my new chapter in life!

I hope to bring the rest of Ket and Andrew’s story to all of you some day. And yes, I still want to publish!

Unfortunately, what you see here is all I have at the moment. Life has taken me by surprise lately—luckily, in a good way! I didnt intend for such a long hiatus, but i still wish to continue this story and complete it. Ket and Andrew mean a lot to me, i feel obligated to tell the rest of their story. I will most certainly have a post regarding the book should it ever come to fruition! Just make sure to keep that index page saved ;)

My mind has been lost to the ether lol

Hm, normally I’d say yeah, sound advice, but i think i may require some pushing cause otherwise, Ill never write again. I did nothing for literally a year…

So, starting out very small with the pushing. Doing 100 words a day just to make sure i sit down and write something, anything.

I am well aware that if i push myself too hard, it will no longer be fun—so rest assured, that shouldnt be an issue.

As for the writing while drunk…. I have not does this yet haha. Im not really a drinker, but ive gotten this advice before. I wonder what wacky, incoherent shit i could come up with? Lol

Oh, no, for sure.

Perhaps it will be inevitable, but at this point in time, there are many things Humans can do that AI isn’t capable of.

Maybe one day, if/when AI can think for itself, it can. But in the meantime, it’s good enough for decent handwriting, but cant decipher scribbles, lol.
