“Part of the problem with the word 'disabilities' is that it immediately suggests an inability to see or hear or walk or do other things that many of us take for granted. But what of people who can't feel? Or talk about their feelings? Or manage their feelings in constructive ways? What of people who aren't able to form close and strong relationships? And people who cannot find fulfillment in their lives, or those who have lost hope, who live in disappointment and bitterness and find in life no joy, no love? These, it seems to me, are the real disabilities.”
― Fred Rogers, The World According to Mister Rogers: Important Things to Remember

After that interesting (or random) array of quotes from either prominent or obscure sources, I guess I could enlighten you about my stories although the summary does a pretty good job of telling you that. How about an update on story progress?

Road to Paradise: (Will be shown in 4 chapter increments).

Chapter 8: In Progress...

Edit: I have been toying with the idea of doing a bit of a rewrite for both Team Drive: A Quest for Glory and Romance and Team Valor: Save the World. When I went in to read them both after several months, I couldn't help but shudder at how poorly written they were so expect rewrites for those stories coming soon. Or at least, something akin to rewrites anyway...

Below are tentative additions and dates for my revision for Team Drive: A Quest for Glory and Romance. Team Valor's rewrites will most likely begin after Team Drive's are done.

Possible changes:

- Chikorita will be given a name (confirmed). Her new name is now Lily as of Chapter 1. (It had never occurred to me to give her one prior to now but now I had that perfect name in mind...)

- Added facilities in Treasure Town (unconfirmed).

- Improved Syntax: i.e. better grammar, and more thorough editing (confirmed). This was the main premise.

- More Romance primarily on Ali/Charmander's side (confirmed).

- Added more boss battles that were originally cutscenes in PMD2 (confirmed).

- New moves and abilities for Ali and Chikorita (I've decided to incorporate moves and modified mechanics from Gen V and VI). (Confirmed)

- Added sequences from Special Episodes in the form of a story time setting (unconfirmed).
