As of 4/12/2010

Hey there everyone! I really hope you haven't given up on me, but I'd understand if you have. I know it's been a really, really long time since I've posted anything here, and I heartily apologize for it.

Thank you to everyone who has messaged me asking if/when my stories will be updated. It is wonderful to know that you still have faith in me, and remain interested in my works. To everyone who has taken the time to read one of my stories, I am very grateful to you.

However, despite all of this, I have a sad announcement to make:

I'm not actually sure if/when I will next update. In the past year or so, I have become obsessed with New Doctor Who, and most of my stories have focused on that instead of those I have written for here. Out of the works in progress that are listed below however, Brotherly Bonds, Kendo Club, and Perfection are the three most likely to be updated. Once again though, I am not sure when this will be. However, I do have some vague ideas of where I want to go for them.

So, I hope that anyone who has read or is interested in my works will continue to have faith in me, and please keep checking your emails for an announcement of an update. I have hope, and I promise, that it will come eventually, if you only keep looking.

If there is anyone interested in reading any of my works for Doctor Who, some are on my LJ: http://pippnfrodo.livejournal.com or on www.whofic.com under the name shadowedsunsets.

Thank you once again for your support, and I apologize for letting you down in this way.

Yours sincerely,

mijichan

Hello everyone! I'm very VERY sorry that I took a hiatus from writing for awhile, you are all entitled to yell at me. But it isn't truly my fault... college was gruesome and Ash has been buried under as much work as I have. School doesn't supply much inspiration for writing unfortunately.

Anyway, thank you for reading my stories and continuing to support me! I'm very grateful to all of you!

Updated 11/7

Current Stories:

Brotherly Bonds: I am so sorry that it is taking me so long to update this. I feel horrible making you all wait so long and will try to update as soon as possible. In truth I am actually almost done with the next chapter, however it might take a little longer.

When this psychiatrist turns out to be a friend of Yinari's and weird things (even weirder than usual) begin happeneding, everything starts going out of control. OC.

Kendo Club: sigh I honestly don't know what to tell you about this one. This story is one of my favorites, but I have yet have any inspiration for the next chapter. I do have part of it written, but I have no time period of when I will update in. I truly appreciate all of your support and the popularity of this story- I will try to update as soon as I can.

Summary: Kaoru runs into the new red-haired student at Kendo club and decides to become friends with him and to get to know him better. What she doesn't expect is the danger and mysteries she gets mixed up in involving her new friends past. AU.

Perfection: This is also one of my favorites, especially since it's so dark. For some reason I get my kicks out of writing dark stories. Anyway, I have some of the next chapter written, in which you will find out some of what is happening with Kenshin, and of about his past. Also, new character introduced! I am truly grateful for all the readers of this fic, I never expected so many people would like it.
