Which story?
It sucks when it happens because you want an ending and you want it now, and it's tough when the author doesn't say anything about it. I know many a rough case of the writer losing all inspiration or hitting an incredibly harsh writer's block (something that can take years to come out of), or school takes a big part of life, or they become social and spend time away from their story. The readers are left hanging and the author is somewhere else. Me personally, the deal comes with both school and writer's block, a lethal combination.
Don't worry too much about it. and whatever you do, don't pester the author. I have had many people actually PM or email me asking for updates repeatedly, which drives a girl crazy and sets her on a guilt-trip. Then, you have that one lone person who reviews every story you put out there simply for the fact of asking for an update for another story.
Yeah.

I've only PM'd one person about that before (I made sure to be polite ), and they updated a few weeks later. The story that I've been waiting for is called Fever, it's really good but the author seems to have taken more of an interest in Danny Phantom than in avatar recently.

with AWS I feel like an addict its almost as bad as my lack of funds for a home theater sytem. I going aroundlooking at speakers, tvs, subwoodrs,DVD players, xbox 360, fornt projecters, acustic trements, sweet theater seating .and all the other stuff that is fun and intresting but I'm broke .lol (I blame my local audio video store, huppins audio video darn you guys for being so helpful.lol ;D) It dsosen't help that one of the companies I really like SVS is coming out with a whole lot of new products this year that I can't afford. www.svsound.com/ Unfortanitly I love moves and music as much as I love avatar and its impossible to escape my passions.lol I mean one of my favoirte things is to watch movies or listen to music and after hearing them on what many would call reference systems its hard to go back. It makes a huge differance its like being there in the movie. I'm sure avatar would sound sweet in surround sound.lol But not having avatar on fridays dose force me to be social and get out witch is a good thing, I guess. lol I guess I need to start brain storming some more excuses to stay home. I would like to write fanfiction but It really hard for me being vsually impaired I miss stuff unless I read it aloud because its my work and thats makes it a bit tought to enjoy it. But thankfully we have a ton of talented authors here who I respect a huge amount.

Truth to tell I've never deeply examined why zutara would be bad for the story, because it's such a longshot at happening. If you give me good material I'll pester the zutarians ;p I think that’s why I wouldn’t like it in the show. Zutara’s presence in the story has, truly, been very little and for the writers to suddenly go “Oh, look Zutara!” would be…cheesy I guess. Night! G'night. And, since I'm not sure when I'll get to say this again, happy forumversary! Also, since I think this a good question for all ships, what would be the perfect Kataang moment (if there is such a thing)? Has it already happened on the show? For me, I think it was the whole Crossroads of Destiny ending scene if I’m taking the it’s already happened mindset. Aang was willing to give his attachment to Katara, out of love for her I might add, but was shot down by Azula. Though right after that Katara stormed up a giant wave (add “of love” if you wish) and did all she could to save him. Basically, I just thought it showed how much Aang and Katara care for each other. <3

The perfect Kataang moment, huh? I think mine would have to be a scene where Katara and Aang just sit there, next to each other, talking about all the things they've went through so far (or even after the war). Later on, they'll start talking about how much they've come to care for each other, and perhaps a possible confession scene? Where Aang's all "I've been wanting to tell you, just how much I really care for you Katara..." and Katara would smile and say "I know you care for me. I know you care for me a lot, and I want you to know that I care a lot for you too, Aang." Then exchange an embrace or maybe Katara can give him a kiss on the cheek (or they can kiss, LOL) then they'd just sit there, holding hands, and enjoying their brief little moment while it lasts. There's a lot of moments I think would be perfect between the two, but I kind of like the one above the most. I haven't read Liesl's story! I totally should.

To tell you guys the truth, I don't really read fanfiction on my own accord...especially not shipping ones. I'm a terrible fan, I know The only Fanfiction I'm currently reading so far is Clearsunrise, 'Live for Love.' You should give it a read- it's very entertaining! I'm fond of Catalyst's drabbles but I don't go around searching for fanfictions to cure my AWS...maybe I should though. Ara ara... I can't even make a joke without it coming off as an attack. *sigh* Anyway, that's the reason I've decided to stop posting in this thread.Too much of what I post gets taken as an attack. It's never my intention. Sometimes I'm joking, and sometimes I'm trying to offer intelligent discussion. But somehow it usually gets interpretted as a slight against people here. My response: Some of these folks are a bit sensitive, you know. Kudos to the person who guesses where this is from^^

Of course, in return, I should advertise it, xD lol But maybe it's not the right story for Kataangs in terms of shipping...but it's still an awesome read nonetheless.

Oooh...Kataang Question...ponders. Hmm, I wouldn't really know since there's so many but I'm pretty fond of this one for this ship.
Kataang Song: Feel in tears Artist: KOTOKO (translated Romaji lyrics)
Whenever I look up at the stars of the night sky I begin to remember the promise we made that day No matter how far you are from me, I'll always be watching over you Don't give up Now, a shooting star is sending my thoughts to you I'll always be waiting for you under the distant sky No matter how painful the night is, remember the warmth we had In the one sole unforgettable dream, and don't cry Someday our mutual dreams would come true Until the day comes, keep your tears inside your heart Rumours I heard from my friends Make me feel troubled But still I want to come to you and say it out Even if I can't I fill my chest with loneliness and strength Yet the clumsy weakness I have is not telling you this This sadness of not being able to tell you is increasing everyday But when I start to remember your only words, they disappear In this way, forgive me, as my tears are overflowing Seems like I can't keep our promise of not to cry Although at times, I seem to crumble when I try to tell you We are connected by the stars of the night sky Even if we are travelers searching for happiness Believe in only the fate that we will someday be together
Very Kataangish, wouldn't you agree?
