I just want to thank everyone for all the fun times I've had on Scratch (900+ followers? Not bad!) I've loved being here and sharing my characters and stories! But this project is also kind of a heads-up... I'm considering leaving Scratch sometime next year, probably around April. I have very mixed feelings about it though, as there are both reasons for me to stay and for me to leave. I'm thinking I'll pray about it. I'm not yet sure what God wants me to do. I am old now (probably older than everyone who reads this project, and plus, it will be my birthday soon) and have been on Scratch a very long time, knowing that I would have to quit eventually. New projects don't impress me like they used to. The majority of friends and inspos I've known over the years have moved on and left. So many others have left in just the last few months. I sometimes wonder why I, an adult, am still on a site for kids. Another thing is that there's stuff going on in the outside world, but I'm not going into that now, that's another can of worms. But right now, I don't feel like I'm very ready to leave. I really wanted to finish the current installments of Steve and Alex and TSoC, as well as a few smaller projects (including a departure/finale project, but I'm going to need ideas for that. I'm thinking an AMV. Kind of want to go out with a bang.) I'd just hate to leave them unfinished. And a lot can happen before April. I might change my mind about leaving. Anyway, don't worry, if I am leaving, we still have some months left for now, and I would like to do at least one more contest after the DTA. Also I've been hoping to develop some stories that I can actually publish (my grandpa knows some publishers) and who knows, maybe you'll find one of my books some day. Also, Journey of Sun and Moon is one of the stories I'm considering publishing, so there's a chance I might unshare all my Sun and Moon projects, which I have accepted the possibility of doing. So this project is to give you notice about my plans so you'll be ready. I've actually been considering leaving for a long time, but of course I wanted to finish things first. That was one of the bigger reasons I've stayed on Scratch. I hope to work on as much as I can before April, come what may. Once again, I want to thank everyone for your support. And remember, it's not over yet, we still have some time! Consider following me on other sites- YT: Rubycraft1035 TH: Rubycraft_OCs AF: Rubywarrior949 + others I hope to start soon, might add them to the list Also! I might be posting more on Youtube! I can do that now that a have a newer computer (and a minor medical inconvenience resolved.) God bless! -Ruby/Grace
