Well, there is no really easy way to say this, so I'm going to come right out and do it.
I'm taking a break from RPing for a while, effective immediately.
I realize this is really sudden, but this situation has been developing for quite some time. Over the past four months or so, I've felt museless and depressed, as if my imagination finally broke under all the strain I've been putting it through, what with pumping out a constant stream of posts over the past two years with almost no stops. I realize now that the only reason I kept posting was out of shear habit more than anything else. Last night it finally came to a head, and I was finally ready to be honest with myself. Posting just wasn't giving me the same joy and satisfaction that it used to. I'm not exactly sure what's wrong, but I think the answer is for me to take a break, go out and live my life without the constant strain of an undone post nagging at me in the back of my mind. So, that's what I've done, and even though it's tough, I definitely feel better because of it.
Now, obviously, I'm not going to close down the site or anything. This just means that I won't be doing any completely non-essential posting. I'm sorry for those of you who have threads with me, but believe me, you don't want a post from someone who doesn't enjoy it anymore. Now, I will still be directing the Main Plot in some way or another, but it may not be with complete, in-character posts. I will still be logging in twice or three times a day to check up on things, but, if you really do love this place, I would suggest that you post a few ads if you want it to stay the same or even grow a little.
I'm not sure how long this is going to be. Could be a week, could be a month. It will all depend on my muse and whether or not my imagination wakes up again. Again, I'm sorry. =(
