Every time I come to this site, I want to cry. I've seen so much happen here, I've felt so much joy and sadness from this site... Slowly, I'm seeing it die. This site, the will to write, so many good authors just leaving one day and never coming back. It is so disheartening and I realize now that for the past year the fear of not sticking with my stories is what is really keeping me from doing them.
It is with a sad, heavy heart that I must say I cannot promise anything. I am trying my best, doing my best, but it doesn't seem to be moving me forward... If nothing else, I promise this: Should I quit this site for good, I will give all of my dedicated fans warning and at least one last one-shot/short story to enjoy. I promise to go out with a bam! and not just fade.
I will do everything I can to keep you believing in the power of writing.
No, I am not leaving - that's not what I'm saying. I just want you to know that I won't allow my work to die without going out on a note I can be proud of, so please bear with me. I'm trying to keep this page, my work, alive for as long as I can.
With all of my love,

!News!!
(6/19/07): In the time that I have been away from fanfiction, I've become engaged, pregnant, moved out of home and into my own, graduated high school, and had my very first little baby girl. Born on June 5th, 2007 at 12:22pm, weighing 6lbs 13ounces, and 19.5 inches long... she was born with a full head of hair... styled as a mohawk. O_o Odd, but absolutely adorable.
I will be posting chapters soon. Sad thing is, most of my work has been completed for the past year and I just have not taken the time to edit and post. I apologize profusely to those who are still waiting for updates.
(1/31/08): ... Yeah, uh, don't know how to say this. So - I'm pregnant again. This child is due 12 day's after my daughter's first bday... So my life is a bit hectic, but I'm loving it... _
Couldn't be happier at the moment, but tired as can be.

Favorite Quote:
"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded." -Ralph Waldo Emerson
