Wow. That’s just about all I really have to say. Where We Left Off was my first real attempt at a serious fanfic, and it was a dream to write. Richie has quickly become one of my favorite original characters out of everything I’ve ever written. It actually makes me a bit sad to know that I won’t be writing about him anymore.
Looking back at this story, I only have on major regret, and that was the car accident. One of my reviewers was right in saying that it fell short in terms of significance. At the time I was writing it, it seemed to be a very important event in the story, but it just sort of faded into the background. I do have to say, though, that the plot could not have progressed without it. Although I would have liked to do more with it, it was still significant enough to turn the tide of the story.
The central idea of growing up and moving on has become almost a staple theme for me. I’m starting to see a trend in just about everything I’m writing. This is only cradled by the fact that I’ll be going through my own changes this year since I will be graduating high school in about three weeks. The idea of change and adaptation is something I hold dear to my heart and probably will for a very long time.
I hope everyone enjoyed the story and keep a look out for some of my other works coming out really soon.
