All right, I've really put this off long enough. It's time to lay it out here.

I haven't updated anything in over a year, and most readers have probably figured that I've stopped writing and updating. This is true. As of now (or rather, June of last year), all my Ranma 1/2 stories are discontinued.

I considered just letting them sit forever and letting people come to their own conclusions, but that isn't really fair. I have no intention of or motivation to continue these.

I apologize to my readers, who have been absolutely awesome to me all this time. But I started fanfic writing when I was fourteen years old, and like so many other authors, I started too many different projects with no real idea of how to wrap them up. I also invested very, very heavily into exactly one anime series, apparently with the idea that I'd never get into a different one as much. Ranma 1/2 is great, but it couldn't sustain my absolute interest and devotion for fifteen years. My memory of canon is spotty by now, and I don't even watch that much anime anymore. I tried to keep things fresh with a crossover with a newer series, Rosario Vampire, which was an awesome idea except that I don't really like that series at all. I think we've seen precisely how long I can drag out a fanfiction saga based on contempt.

But hey, we had some good times, and lots of laughs. I'm not planning on closing this page anytime soon, and I'm not touchy about my stories being used. If anyone wants to continue or refurbish any of these works or any of the characters within, they have my unconditional permission to do so. Go nuts! But it's time I moved on.

Farewell, and stay thirsty, my friends.
