User blog:Francis a51/My Thoughts About Qaravan of Garbage's Retirement

Yeah, you probably know what is this all about, if you don't I'll make a brief explanation. Qaravan of Garbage, better known as the author of Brotherhood, just announced his retirement as a writer, leaving his work uncompleted. He gave many reasons, some of them are sad, and some of them are indignant.

The sad part is that he's dealing with his depression and sadly it got worse to the point it ruined his motivation to keep writing, but that's not the bad part. The part that was upsetting is that the people who he always admired them, who supposedly are great fanfiction writers and were his source of inspiration, told him that "he couldn't be one of them", which that must be the low blow to him.

So I want to express personally to the people who said those things to him, to the people who inspired him.

You should be ashamed of yourselves, you call yourselves better writers after you said such a thing to him? You have no idea what he's been through, not only you ruined his motivation and his love of writing, you made him feel like his story was such an embarrassment to the fandom and to fanfiction. Instead of helping by giving some tips about how to improve his writing or at least giving credit for what he's doing, you looked down on him.

Seriously, I would send you so many insults, because you have no idea how upset I am this writer just quit because of you, not to mention because of his depression as well. But, I'm not gonna be that guy, because I know you won't take it seriously. But I hope you guys think about what you've done, and I wish you guys should apologize to him.

Qaravan of Garbage, if you're reading this, I want to tell you that you are such a good writer, I really love your writing style, and I know you are such a great person. As much as saddens me that you're gonna leave, I give you the best of luck, I hope you can turn your frown upside down and keep moving forward with a smile. I hope sooner or later we'll see each other again in the future. Otherwise, I am so glad I met you, and I will never forget you.
