Regarding the Twolegplace Culture Expansion hiatus

To summarize for those who may be in the dark about it: My Twolegplace Culture Expansion was a series of posts that covered my attempts to properly flesh out different Twolegplaces that we see in the series, stemming from my liking for the Kittypets.

So around month back, an ask that I had gotten from one of my mutuals mentioned the Twolegplace Culture series of posts. I had answered with a sort of “summarization” as to why the series has been put onto a long hold, and I feel that the same also somewhat applies to my wc rewrite in general.

It’s unfortunate that I’ve come to this at the moment: But the series won’t be continuing

Well that’s only half-true. We can more accurately say it’s on a very, very indefinite hiatus.

When the series of posts started gaining traction I was super excited to start working on more stuff for the Twolegplaces and during this phase I had written a few rough drafts and outlines for some big posts:

A revamp of the Demonios post (What the Twolegplaces call evil demons)

Epochs and Eras: Chelford (A huge history post about Chelford’s history)

Recipes and tools

Dogs and other city-dwelling animals

Bloodclan, Skyclan, and Warriorclan

Marriages

Figureheads of the Chelford Raids

Patrons

The Flickering (Ghosts that haven’t moved on from Earth)

A Molly Named Johnny (A cat’s adaptation of “The Devil Went Down to Georgia”)

But I ended up slowly losing that steam through a bunch of shit: School, personal life, decreasing motivation, and comparing my posts and rewrite to other rewrites. The latter one especially just made me feel like total shit and made me feel like I was being a total hack (Didn’t make it better when I got an anon hate about its quality). Coupled with my real life, I slowly started losing motivation about it.

Writing for these posts became absolute chores and not fun anymore for me and I stopped caring about it all together. “A Molly Named Johnny” from the previously mentioned list was a last effort that I just wanted to get out already.

Of course at some point I felt a bit dejected from how little attention that the posts were getting but it blew over pretty quickly. In terms of the rewrite I had, the last one was the Tom Fate post, which itself is also tied to Twolegplace Culture. I decided this one was going to be the “last” one because it was something that I considered to be a good “sendoff”.

I say that the series is on a very indefinite hiatus because I’m still unsure if it’s a project I even see worth going back to and continuing. And I feel that way even more now seeing as I’m trying to balance College and writing/drawing for Bug World No Mercy, a new project of mine. Right now I’d rather put more thought and effort into that story than try and expand upon an already existing one, especially when so many other people have been doing it for longer to a much larger degree.

I keep repeating myself but the project’s status is an indefinite hiatus, but I unfortunately wouldn’t hold out hope that the project will be continued any more.
