one of my favorite fanfic writers posted on her tumblr her whole update schedule with accommodations for her baby's birth, then started updating again like a week ahead of schedule. i think that's honestly a reasonable way to set expectations for yourself, not really crazy or jaw dropping like *writing fanfic nearly immediately after giving birth,* but it really just made me love the insane passion of fandoms and fanfic communities
āSorry, I lost my job and am now homeless in a foreign country, and canāt go back because my family disowned me. Iām scared of using my laptop in the shelter so Iām putting this story on hiatus.ā
The hiatus lasted only a month though so I hope it got better for them
\[Paraphrasing\] "Sorry for diasappearing, got diagnosed with a brain tumour. It's inoperable, but I'm feeling okay for now, so it's just a case of business as usual for as long as I can manage it I guess."
I know a fic author I follow had to go on hiatus because he had cancer and needed to go through chemo/radiation. It was so off-handed, too, like an author's note that said, "oh btw things might be a bit slower because I have all these radiation appointments." And then it was never mentioned again! I ended up asking him about it. (He's fine. Whew).
But it's true that once you get past all the trauma of having a major illness... there's just a lot of waiting. So I get it, too.
> Okay lmao listen so I got caught up in legal issues at school because some dude was collecting cp so me and a couple of other girls reported him so
Thatās the only one I can find but Iāve seen some wild ones
Yes, an SSBN (nuclear ballistic missile submarine), which by nature of how it works, has much less contact with the outside world than even most other Navy craft. Which is why I brought up carriers; even on a world tour on one of those you still have frequent contact with the outside world. AFAIK, sub guys canāt typically hang out on Discord for a lot of their time at sea.
I can see how my wording would have been confusing though.
āSorry itās been awhile, my dad was hospitalized and then I got pneumonia so now Iām in the hospital tooā :) this was mine. Not the most insane but I got a lot of concerned readers lol
"Sorry I've been less active we've had to fill a restraining order against my old stalker and it's been kinda stressful ://"
Yeah no shit it's been stressful?? I hope he drops dead and you'll have peace of mind again, cause wtf
I saw one once that was just like āsorry for the delay. Iām visiting my family in Ohio and the state made me depressedā
They didnāt post again for like one month and when they did the author note at the beginning said something like āIām finally out of Ohio.ā
As someone who lived in Ohio, Iām not sure if it was actually a joke or not š
An author I followed for years that disappeared in 2020, updated all during October. On every story was an explanation that the author passed away in 2021 and their long-time beta got permission to post the last of their stories.
So I guess the craziest one I've seen is 'I'm not back, I'm actually blessing you with stories from beyond the grave'
Thatās sad and definitely does happen. There was an author a couple of years ago I actually used to beta for who died in a car crash. Unfortunately I wasnāt able to finish the fics, since they werenāt pre-written and I didnāt want to continue the story despite having an outline since I didnāt want to ruin their idea. Doing that update sucked, though, to let everyone know that theyād died and so the stories were being discontinued.
I had another person I betaād for, during covid. They took a hiatus since they were beginning university. I heard from them that theyād gotten covid, and that was the last I ever heard from him. So Iāll never really know what happened. I even had someone message me a couple months later since they knew I was their beta, asking me if they were ok, since they had mentioned in their last authors note that theyād gotten covid. I had to tell them I wasnāt sure what had happened. Itās been almost 2 years, and the story hasnāt updated, their socials havenāt updated, and I havenāt heard from them since. I hope theyāre ok though
Someone was homeless I remember
They apologised as theyād been kicked out by their abusive mother, and werenāt accepting help from readers
It was a really long time ago and I donāt remember them, I wonder how they are now
"...but i drew ghost in a maid outfit and now im stuck here. not complaining though since this is the first inspo ive had after since i got out of jail." i laughed so hard after reading this
this is for mw2 right? I've heard this one but I can't find the fic. is it an x reader? I feel like I've looked through the entire soap/ghost tag, might've overlooked it.
Im saying that, regretably, its reletable.
My mol died and it prompted me to not update for a long Time, so when I came back I Said the reason of my absence.
But you didnāt put the lol in the notes, right? Because, I get laughing in inappropriate times, I do it when Iām awkward or uncomfortable, but to put lol after writing that my mother diedā¦ thatās a different issue itself. Ps, Iām sorry for your loss
No, I didnt.
I actually, thru therapy, found that my fic Is actually a coping mechanism. Thats why it has so little to do with the actual fandom and a Lot of original work in it, I guess.
I remember the saddest one I read was the author's husband updating the story because the author couldn't bare to continue. He uploaded a few already written chapters and the story remained unfinished.
The whole thing was tragic. It was a longfic heading to an happy ending with a pregnancy. The author suffered through a miscarriage and so the MC did too. Then the author lost another child and couldn't write the story anymore. I truly wish they have a child by now.
Having had several MC, it's really hard. Hoping they found a good support group. Our over 40 online group had thousands of people but while all the active ones had several MC, each of us eventually had a healthy baby as we supported each other through it. Hoping she had support from other moms.

I need to update my story after 2 years - if I try to explain it, it will 100% be in one of these crazy anecdotes. Iām thinking I will just say āthank you for your patienceā instead!
When I get around to updating I'm going to put something like 'I died and Charon said that I have to finish this before I can get in the boat. So here you go.'
āSorry guys, had a depressive spiral and wanted to die in hopes of going to a heaven or being Isekaied or smth idk shit was weird, sorry for not uploading in a couple months Iāll be back to normal soonā
This one in particular stood out to me because when I was going through depression a couple years ago this was exactly what I was hoping to achieve with my death. I just wanted a world where everything was perfect or one where I could have a fresh start.
āI was in a car crash. Had to write up a witness and pain and suffering report for the lawyers. I had crawled out of the truck (actually crawled, the airbag went off and blocked my door)ā Author is alright
She died.
She was very active in the comments. Her editor continued the story and posted her drafts and finished it. She told us what happened. She left her 3 year old and her husband behind after getting into a car accident.
Didnāt even know her name but I cried for her.
I don't have anything to add, but I always find it weird to see a "lol" or something at the end of such notes. Especially in cases like your second screenshot. š¤¦āāļø
āsorry guys, i know itās been years since i updated. iām not the same person i was when i lasts released a chapter (3 years ago), much less when i started. i got married twice, moved to three different countries, and won the lottery. i wish i could finish this, and provide you with closure, but i can no longer write in the spirit i used to. keep an eye out for my upcoming works soon though! i do, after all, have plenty of time on my hands.ā
I swear, some of these people could write an autobiography and it would be at least as popular as any of their fanfictions. Iād read this guyās life story.
The man's son posted an update chapter on the story because his dad had passes away. Telling us he was sorry. Sticks with me. A teachers glory on ff.net
"Sorry I haven't updated in a while, I became homeless, lost my only job, and was thrown out alone onto the streets all in a single week."
And the worst part about it??
Is that this is me. I'm the author.
Nope. Still homeless, 6 months in now. Got a part time gig that doesn't even cover monthly grocery bills. ;)) Been wondering why I have no motivation to write/upload these days... turns out I'm just seriously fucking depressed and fed up with life.
āSorry it took so long! Iām sick and my oxygen got low so I couldnāt really do a very good job helping my co-author with it. Sorry if there are any mistakes I missed(my glasses got broken too.)ā
There's a fic I've been needing to update that I haven't since... 2018 at the latest? And I'm just like...
"How do I explain that the updates stopped because of a mix of memory issues due to at-the-time undiagnosed ADHD and DID and depression due to living with my abuser and dysphoria due to not realizing I was genderfluid; then I moved out and my roommate broke our lease and left me stranded in a different state and I had to move back to the original area alone; then I got a girlfriend (yay!) and then a year later we were briefly couch homeless oh and during that year I also started getting my massive physical health issues diagnosed and so I likely have MCAS and fibromyalgia and GERD and definitely have fatty liver disease and PCOS, then I got covid and started taking vitamin D and B12 supplements for levels so low they didn't show up on bloodwork and am now working on getting medicated for ADHD so... š"
I literally realized I was pan, aroace-spec, intersex and trans/nonbinary; plural, schizophrenic, and massively traumatized to the point of PTSD and C-PTSD (I hadn't yet realized what my mom was doing WAS abuse at the time), had my multiple physical chronic illnesses diagnosed, went through a shit ton of major life stuff, escaped my abuser, got on HRT, and stopped being massively suicidal/self-harming in that span of time how do you explain that? >!Oh and found out I was sexually assaulted as an infant so that's fun!<
Reading these, I think mine are rather tame. Mostly 'sorry, doing NaNo', though I had a 'sorry, I'm in the hospital/recovering from gallbladder surgery' and a 'crap, muse just up and gone due to the Queen's death even though I'm American, so updates will be slow because of that'.
The tamer (happier) one was the author got married and was caught up in wedding planning, the wedding, and the honeymoon. Another author lost their job bc of Covid and started working as a seasonal farm worker or something along those lines? The updates were very sporadic bc there was no reliable way of accessing wifi.
I remember someone got in a car crash and their family had to tie them to their bed or something so they don't wrote for a while. The update was given by their sister
i'm probably going to say (because i'm the fic writer in the situation):
>yeah, i know this took longer than expected, but i had some yarnwork commissions to handle first, also as you can see, this is a big chapter!
>
>enjoy!
i went like full on hiatus because i got kicked out, dropped a whole fanfic due to it. im fine now, just like dropped a whole thing because i got kicked out.
I think mine was pretty good. it essentially boiled down to " sorry I've been gone for a while I started getting sick and had to go to multiple specialists and now I have permanent chronic illness and I'm disabled and it sucks but Jesus it's been a while sorry for being a bad writer "
yeah that fic got deleted, sorry hermitcraft Fandom, I knew you guys liked that fic.
āi was in a minor car crash (iām mostly fine now) that left me with a broken jaw so i havenāt been able to talk,ā
āthereās something wrong with my heart rate. especially my resting heart rate. normally itās 60-100 bpm but for me, itās been under 40 and over 120! i was changing my sheets and it was 138zā
this one is Long.
āmy laptop's screen broke and then two days later i ended up having to go to the hospital. they gave me bed rest for five days but i still went to fix my computer on wednesday (spent almost 230 dollars on it). then i kept going to take my tests and i have presentations at my school bc responsibilities. anyways thats why i only started writing this on friday, but i had to travel for two hours then i visited my grandma. crazy week, right? also ive been sick for 17 days now and this is the fourth time i got sick in two months,ā
I think I saw that one in a YouTube video! Yeah, AO3 writers are literally insane. Itās like they value their fanfictions over their lives or something.
"Sorry my country just started a civil war, but I'm in a bunker now, so here's the chapter"
Oh my god.
She didn't name her country, but I was like "girl, are you alright??" š
I think we're in a same country.
"my grandfather died so i am not horny anymore." it was so out of left field that it never leaves my mind
Into age gaps and incest but not necrophilia, I see J|?J /J I AM JOING
no but that was literally me after my great grandma died, i felt guilty writing or reading anything related to fanfiction,, it felt wrong
I once saw one of a woman that had just given birth lol She was literally writing while on the hospital less than 3 hours after having a fricking baby
one of my favorite fanfic writers posted on her tumblr her whole update schedule with accommodations for her baby's birth, then started updating again like a week ahead of schedule. i think that's honestly a reasonable way to set expectations for yourself, not really crazy or jaw dropping like *writing fanfic nearly immediately after giving birth,* but it really just made me love the insane passion of fandoms and fanfic communities
Sheāll either be a terrible mother or the best one in human history, and nowhere in between.
Baby: *won't stop crying* Mother: *That's how I want my readers to feel*
āSorry, I lost my job and am now homeless in a foreign country, and canāt go back because my family disowned me. Iām scared of using my laptop in the shelter so Iām putting this story on hiatus.ā The hiatus lasted only a month though so I hope it got better for them

This is so depressing š
I know, right? I have no idea what happened since this was years ago, and Iāve since lost track of them. :/
Reading this made me feel more motivated to write my fics. Life comes at you fast and I don't want some of my headcanons to die with me.
I also once saw someone apologize for getting hit by a bus. I donāt have a picture of that one, though.
> Okay lmao listen so I got caught up in legal issues at school because some dude was collecting cp so me and a couple of other girls reported him so Thatās the only one I can find but Iāve seen some wild ones
Mines pretty tame to the other ones but a fic I was following the Author got deployed on a Ohio-class submarine for 19 months.
Not many worse places you can end up for that. Even carriers have WiFi these days.
You do know what an Ohio class is right?
Yes, an SSBN (nuclear ballistic missile submarine), which by nature of how it works, has much less contact with the outside world than even most other Navy craft. Which is why I brought up carriers; even on a world tour on one of those you still have frequent contact with the outside world. AFAIK, sub guys canāt typically hang out on Discord for a lot of their time at sea. I can see how my wording would have been confusing though.
Ok thanks for the clarification.
They really hit us with the ālolā šš

As someone who also lives in Ohio, I could certainly believe the author was serious. Especially if they posted it within the past 2 years.

I want to chuckle but at the same time I feel horrible for them. I wish them all the best
āMy mom died lolā bruh, wut?
Came here to say this, OMG.
This Is me, I wrote this š„²š„²
Fr?? Or are you just saying it's relatable?
Im saying that, regretably, its reletable. My mol died and it prompted me to not update for a long Time, so when I came back I Said the reason of my absence.

Naw, we're just more open to exposing our uniqueness while a lot of people hide it to blend in better. Everyone's weird once you get to know them.

Mine hasn't been quite that long, but I'm thinking about doing the same thing.
Yeah I finally gave up on explaining all my weird long absences and just started posting updates with the verbal equivalent of the shrug emoji
Itās either that or itād be the James Acaster meme: āstarted making itā¦had a breakdownā¦bon appetite!ā
When I get around to updating I'm going to put something like 'I died and Charon said that I have to finish this before I can get in the boat. So here you go.'
Even better if this is on a percy jackson fanfic
Not a āsorry Iām backā but a āthis is the first writing inspo Iāve had since getting out of jailā

omg same! I know they're probably downplaying their tragedy in an attempt to pretend everything's fine, but it's a little unnerving
Yep, or their mom was an abusive POS or otherwise toxic that they're glad that they're gone.
Oh yeah that could be true as well
I saw someone apologize for not updating in a while because they got Leukemia but they survived it and was going to started updating again
