To this is directed to the FMG artists that follow me

As you may be aware has removed the entirety of his gallery.

To many of us this this would seem to be sudden move. When I read many of his status posts and his final journal entry on the matter, I can only draw my own conclusions based on what I know and other observations as I can not presume to know what goes on in another person's mind.

1. Frustration and burn out. Which is something I can sympathize with as if you're doing something for an considerable amount of time especially something creative for a very long time. Burn out will emerge and if you're doing something you're expecting fanfare, yes you will be frustrated. Speaking purely for myself I did felt frustration on Fanfiction because I worked hard on what I was writing for what was basically a dying fanbase and even more when you had some hack 'tween with a keyboard shitting out essentially garbage but garner more reviews in one day with gushing praise where my work is caught in the undertow. So I would write for my own satisfaction and not the satisfaction of others.

2. A possible self-realization. Especially when doing was is basically fetish work there is a time when one looks at themselves in the proverbial mirror and "ask why I'm still doing this," or feel that it does not hold their interest anymore and want to move beyond such things. I will admit that FMG is not holding my interest as it has in the past, to a certain extent especially in the written word, because I would like to see a story crafted but there are those who are just "bam! continuous growth and sex!" which after a while it does get very boring. Because it is essentially rinse and repeat.

3. Depression. It maybe a logical conclusion but it may not be the correct one. I've noticed DeviantArt, without naming names, would go through these periods of depression where it almost be comes a roller coaster with journal and/or status posts. If one is depressed the order of business is as follows:
1. Don't post anything, its not going to help.
2. Get off the net
3. See your physician for a recommendation on a competent therapist.
4. Follow said therapist's advice of when/if you can return.

In any event I followed your work with great interest and I had enjoyed said work but no matter how I or anyone else feels in the matter it is your decision and I and the others will respect that decision.
