I'm happily married, semi-settled in and finding a lot to love in this new adventure of life I'm starting. It's been busy, but usually a good kind of busy.

Thanks to those that reviewed in the time I've been away - especially those that pointed out I was missing a scene between chapters 1 and 2 of Reclaiming Life, the original chapters. I've fixed the mistake by re-posting chapter 1. Hope you guys have found new authors, or new interests as well!

Reclaiming Life has been concluded. The "New Material Outline" in chapter 13 is full of grammar mistakes, spelling errors and missing terms as I didn’t bother to look anything up. Hopefully it gives you enough closure to say goodbye as I am doing.

Number one reason why I’m not going to be writing the actual story of Reclaiming Life: I’m getting married. Yes, I know it probably seems a stupid reason to many, but fanfiction has always and will always be a hobby to me. A hobby I don’t have time for anymore. Someone recently posted a review that stated something along the lines of ‘another abandoned story’ and it hit me just how long it had been since I updated.

So the truth hurts, but yes, I had abandoned Reclaiming Life. Real life (school, meeting my now fiancé, getting engaged, preparing to move, wedding planning, work) along with my original stories I hope to publish someday are far more important to me.

Reclaiming Life has its own special place in my heart, and I will always look at it fondly, but it deserves time and dedication that I cannot give. So I’ll say farewell to it. I might still dabble in fanfiction, but not anytime soon, and likely never an epic story this was meant to be.

Kudos to anyone that picks up the bare bones put forth here and manages to flesh it out into the being it was destined to be.

Thanks once again for everyone who kept waiting. Hope you find another story that tickles your interest – or better yet, try making your own.

I'm still alive, still working, and still have no updates for you... But there is light at the end of the tunnel. The last bit of writer's block just dislodged and I know where I'm going from here. ;)
