No Cut Strings News

I have made my fic a user only, moderated comments story. I’ve continuously been receiving a slew of hate comments from Guest accounts, so I’ve decided to make it less easy to leave such comments. I do delete them as I see them, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t read them. Reading such comments makes me want to delete my fic. Reading that my choice to change relationships, how certain characters are viewed, and so on is “wrong” “disappointing” “story-ruining” and whatnot isn’t conductive to writing. Having to repeatedly defend the way I’ve written certain things, like Legacies and Artemis, is not conductive to my writing. I understand it doesn’t make sense yet, but that doesn’t mean it will not make sense yet.

I’m tired of passive aggressive and hate comments. It takes a lot to write long chapters with intricate sub plots. I could have just deleted my fic since it was my first thought but I decided not to punish the people who have left good comments and kudos. I know that there were some guest readers who weren’t anywhere close to the issue but there were plenty of guests who did participate. Deleting comments doesn’t mean I don’t remember what they say. I’m sorry for the guests who did leave kind comments, but this is the only way my fic stays up.

Furthermore, the next chapter will not be coming out until the end of August or the beginning of September. This is due to the fact I will be going through the previous chapters and editing them. Since I’ve had to deal with health and family issues my editing wasn’t a priority. I have the time to actually edit now and want to take advantage of it.

EDIT: I didn't think this would have to be said, but please do not go onto my other fics and comment about this one. Do not go onto those fics and ask when I'll update, why I chose to private the story, or if I'll undo what I've done. It's private. As are my other stories thanks to the slew of comments I just had to delete. I'm not going to apologize for looking after my mental health. I'd rather make the stories private than deal with the constant want to delete the story and I feel like that's mutual.

From now on I have a few rules, if they aren't followed I will delay the next chapter's post.

Don't ask for updates in my comments, DMs, or Discord

Don't post under one story about the other- especially when they're two different fandoms

Don't post rude comments in reply to someone else, it will get deleted and I will Block you. (You'll still be able to read it but can no longer comment.)

If you leave a hate comment I will Block you, delete the comment, and report you to AO3

I'm beyond done with everything I've listed above. I used to write more than I do now, several fandoms going on at once, but stopped due to how toxic fanfiction can be. I don't want to be rude, but I do want to make sure everyone who reads my stories understands: I'm not going to continue to be treated this way.

Thank you to those of you who don't act like this. I'm sorry if you're being punished due to your fellow reader's behavior.

No Cut Strings Plan!!!

So I’ve got the bare bones!!

TLT: 30 chapter

SoM: 26 Chapters

TTC: 27 Chapters

TBoL: 26 Chapters

TLO: 30 Chapters

So here’s your options: Either I do each book as its own fic or I separate this into two fics.

Chapter 11 is...

OUT! Listen, I need you to understand that I rewrote the ending to this like six times. I also need you to understand this chapter is more than 50 pages long. BE BLESSED

The Plan ™

Annabeth: This is my best plan Athena: Oh? Percy: Sure. Sure it was. Not like you left me to die. Annabeth: Oh, stop being so dramatic Poseidon, concerned: Die?!

(This is pretty much how it goes in chapter 11... if I can get the flow down 😭)

A New Demigod Arrives at camp

New Camper, learning about the gods: What’s the aquaman one?

Percy: …I’m sorry???

New Camper: Aquaman!!

Percy: …Poseidon?

New Camper: THATS THE ONE!!! I like him!
