[ask-agent-rapzutin-vodello]

I am going on a hiatus ...sort of!

Hi guys, gals and beloved theysies, I got an announcement to make!

I've been considering this for a while, so here it goes ...

Starting today, "Waiting for our moment" and other "Razputin Vodello AU" related stories will be put on indefinite hiatus. Now don't start panicking! I mean the big stories. I'll still write the occasional one-shots and prompts provided by you and others. This blog will also stay open and I'll keep being active on it.

And although I still got some Psychonauts Stories in me, I will, however, be writing other stories about other fandoms, like 'Little Witch Academia' and 'The Owl House', among others.

Will anything change? Does this mean I am done with the blog or the AU?

NO! The askbox will stay open, and I'll keep running this blog like I've done since I started this. You can keep sending me asks and prompts and I'll keep doing those like I've always done. That doesn't change.

Why am I doing this?

In all honesty, I am getting a bit tired writing stories solely about this AU. Don't get me wrong! I love it! Still do!

But since I started this blog, for almost 9 months after that my main and only focus was "The Lives and Times of Razputin Vodello' and running this blog. And I loved any second of it. The amount of love that it got motivated me throughout all those months and kept me going.

And after that I started writing what I wanted to be the sequel. However ...I feel like "Waiting for our moment" is not getting the same love I thought it would. And that's okay, but it kinda dampens the motivation. And most things that will happen in the story have been kinda mentioned in the asks here.

(I do extend this offer. If you would like a brief synopsis of what would happen in later chapters of "Waiting for our moment" and you don't really care about spoilers, send me and ask and I'll answer it as private. That way, I won't spoil it for others. )

And I've noticed it's getting harder to keep working on the AU stories. That particular candle is a bit ...spend.

And I've been wanting to write other things, but I keep feeling my AU stories looming over me and that makes me put pressure on myself. And that's not good for anyone.

So, I've decided to put those stories on hold and start writing some other stuff. I have more stories in me and I think writing them might get me out of this funk. And like I said, I'm not done writing for this AU. I'll just write other stuff and maybe that way I'll find back some motivation along the way.

So what will I be writing instead?

Like I said, I'm not done with Pyshonauts. I got some other stories that aren't Razputin Vodello AU related. I still want to write that Vampire AU I've been thinking of and I would like to expand on my Pirate AU story I wrote in the summer. There are some little AU's I had my mind on. There are some game stories I want to write.

And you can still send me prompts, AU related or not. Heck, I might make that a whole different thing on AO3.

Also, I've been getting obsessed with "Little Witch Academia" and "The Owl house lately" and "Arcane" lately. And I have this Little Witch Academia story in mind for years! I might actually write it. I mean, the last one I wrote recently got really well received, so ...yeah.

And, like I said, this is not a permanent hiatus. I have been considering making "Waiting for our moment" a spinoff-side project and start writing "The Tides of War", the story that has been alluded to in the epilogue of chapter 15 of "The Lives and Times of Razutin Vodello". I feel like that might ge the same attention I've been getting with "The Lives and Times".

But for now ...I got some other stories in me that needs to get written.

Anyway, I just felt I needed to let you guys know.

I didn't want to make it seem like I'm just dropping everything AU related or something. I'm just ...changing focus, so I might gain focus again, you know.

I'm sure there are fellow writers among you that might have felt - or even do right now - the same way as I do now. And I've been interacting with you lot enought now, that I know you understand why I'm doing this.

Anyways, thank you for reading. Thank you for understanding. Keep sending me those asks. Keep sending me those prompts. Keep supporting the blog.

Love you all.
