A show of hooves, please?

I need to get a vote -

I'm about to finish Divine Destiny, the 4th story in my Divine series. I had plans on writing a 5th story, which would be the absolute final one, but the question comes up if anyone is interested.

The stories will eventually be published in a hard copy that will be available for purchase for those who had a tough time reading them on the computer. The proceeds will go to Tale of Tales when I have that available.

Anyway, the big question is, should I end the series with Divine Destiny, or write the final story?

Here's a brief synopsis of the 5th story if I write it:

The story takes place several years after the events of Divine Destiny. A small town has been built near the site of the Endless Forest, and many of the people there often wander into the forest to pay homage to a statue of a deer who seems to protect them. In sudden events, dark creatures begin to appear and haunt the townsfolk...the remnants of the infectious creature known as The Stoat. A young boy flees into the forest and is able to awaken Quad from his slumber. His task is to destroy the infection once and for all (maybe with his deer-friends' help as well)...

In any event, if I write the final story or not, I had a lot of fun writing this series, and I thank everyone who took the time to enjoy it as much as I did. I appreciate any feedback about this development, and will have a decision soon.

Edit - The majority thinks I should write the story. The biggest problem is trying to find places to fit the other deer in...maybe I could have them appear and help Quad with the various things he has to do...I need some ideas on how to include other people's deer in the story.

But it would be kind of abrupt if I ended it with Divine Destiny, so I dunno...

It's up to you if you write

It's up to you if you write the final story. You got my support in whatever decision you make.

You should only write if if YOU want to, you are the author! As a fellow writer I understand that the opinion of fans counts, but you having fun writing another story counts even more! So if I were you, I would base your decision on that instead of votes. But that's just my point of view Eye

I'm curious about the concept, it sounds very original, also with the humans and stuff. I think it would be a good base for another story Smiling

Yeah, you should definitely

Yeah, you should definitely write more of this tale (of tails).
and Yorres should definitely have a bigger role! Sticking out tongue

I don't know if you were

I don't know if you were planning on certain deer characters to be in or if you're gonna open slots again. Just make sure every character has a goal and isn't goofing around Sticking out tongue And if you only have a few spaces, just don't open too many slots! It's better to have a good story with a few deer than one that has all these useless characters that come up to say 'Hi' and disappear again.

Just think it through, which 'roles' do you need? Who's characters GOT to be in there for sure? Sticking out tongue

I can't really give you ideas 'cause you only gave me a brief synopsis ^^;

I think you should just use

I think you should just use the deer that were in your story, maybe only a few added extras so people will be familiar with the characters. c:
Hope that helps, lol <3
