So.

After much thought, I have decided to start posting my edits here on this site. I will still be posting on AO3 as well if that's more your cup of tea.

While I still despise this site's formatting, I couldn't think of any other good reasons to stay off it. Plus, a large number of my readers (as they find it appropriate to remind me) prefer reading stories here as opposed to AO3.

Yeah, the number of complaints I've been getting via anonymous reviews has played a small factor in my decision. Some were better than others, but I think I get the gist of it now.

This is the ONLY time I'm complying with reviewer complaints. I don't want to hear any more the old arguments popping up:

Yes, there are OCs in my story.

Yes, I find them necessary. As Oda has proved numerous times, the world of One Piece does not revolve around the Straw Hats. There are other people with their own backstories and issues.

Anyway, I have made the decision to upload my edits as a separate story, so that way- if they want to- people can either keep track of the changes I've made or just read the original for nostalgia's sake. It also allows an easy method for me to keep my old chapters handy for edits.

I have already posted the new version, along with a note similar to this one in case people see it first.

Hope to hear from you all soon!

Sincerely,

The Otaku With Hazel Eyes (Formerly X-Chick303)
