Announcement Time

Hello folks.

First things first: I’m so very sorry for dropping off the map again. It was not intended, and I had life stuff happening, but neither of those are excuses. So, sorry.

Secondly, sorry again, because this post is an announcement of my decision to stop the liveblog.

You probably have questions.

Why?

I did some thinking in the (far too long) gap between my last liveblog post and now, and I discovered that I just don’t want to read the Epilogues. I started liveblogging them because it was the continuation of Homestuck and this was, of course, a Homestuck liveblog; I started liveblogging Homestuck, though, because I enjoyed analyzing the story.

The difference is I was seeing the Epilogues as work rather than fun. A continuation of an unsaid obligation. This may have come across in the few posts about them I did complete, I’m not sure.

What now?

I’m honestly not sure. Should I archive this blog? Should I keep up with Homestuck news and post my thoughts here, or would that be beating a dead author? I welcome any and all thoughts on the matter.

Why don’t you like the Epilogues?

Hm. That’s complicated, but I’ll try my best.

Not on this post, though, it’s long enough without a tangent like that.

What about skipping the Epilogues and reading HS^2?

I dislike Dirk Strider very much.

Also, I’ve heard tale of a “Yiffany” and that does not bode well for the writing. But that’s another topic for the Epilogues Opinions Post™.

That’s the long and short of it. Feel free to send asks if you’ve got questions, and input on what I should do with the blog.
