Margot, I am disappointed. I love you stories but you have not posted for 3 months. You are keeping your loyal BA shippers waiting for too long and they will lose interest. Journey is coming along quite nicely. As is Storming, but I think you need to get moving in writing them. They have been "in the works" for years now...I do remember when they were started. Please. Hurry up and post SOMETHING.

Hey Margot... you just take as long as you need, we appreciate your hard work! You make writing fanfic a form of art, you don't post something just to 'post something', you post a part when you're happy with it, that's what makes you so damn good. I hope everything is going ok in RL and I'll be anxiously waiting for the next part of Journey!

Hi Margot,
I totally agree with Stochey, quality writing needs a lot of time and effort, so take all the time you need 'cos you're doing a great job.
Can't wait to read next Journey either, but I'm sure no one will lose interest just because there hasn't been an update in a while! Hope you're fine and we'll hear from you soon.

However, I am hoping that you will post soon, as that would be a great Christmas Present for us all. Happy Christmas to you from all your fans here in the UK. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Thanks for the support, everyone. I understand your frustration, Lilith, and I wish I could promise that things will change and that I'll update more often, but that's just not possible for me right now. I'll say here what I said on a list where similar frustration was expressed: I drafted the most recent part of Journey in August, and expected to post it over the course of September. That didn't happen. I've revised and expanded, but it isn't soup yet. There was a scene I realized I'd omitted that, even though the fic has evolved since I first started to write it, I really want to include.

The only thing I can promise everyone is that I have not lost interest in the fic, I am not abandoning it, and it will continue. Just, not as quickly as I'd like.

Author: Lindsay [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 10:24:35 12/16/03 Tue The fact that you are going to post something is enough of a Christmas present for me. Take as long as you need, I'll be waiting. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Author: Stochey [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 19:38:32 12/21/03 Sun Hey Margot, really glad you haven't lost interest. Do you have any date or weekend or month that you might be shooting for? Just wondering. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Author: bloody_mary [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 15:47:34 12/27/03 Sat i've read many other fanfics and a lot of Buffy novels which were actually printed, and i must say most of them aren't half as good as your work. there must be a reason for this, so as i said before, take your time, there is no such thing as a "deadline", which is partly what makes your stories so unique.
