1/05/05: I've posted a few random facts about Life Insured in my forums in case anyone is interested!

1/03/05: The Epilogue of Life Insured has been posted! The story is finally finished. Thanks to everyone who stuck around!

6/25/05:Yes, I'm alive. I'm so sorry for the long waits, everyone. I haven't been around a lot lately. Not only was I disctracted by the pressure of high school graduation and college acceptance, but I had major reconstructive surgery on my hip last month. Now I've just been focusing on getting my life back in order, and recovering from four years of high school Honors classes, ha ha. But, I plan to finish up Life Insured, as it and A Match Made in Heaven are nominees for the Fanfic Elimination http://www.geocities.com/bikifriend/main.html I'd be really grateful if everyone would vote for me!

Thanks to all those that still continue to support me and my little stories..More updates to come soon.

I recently stumbled across this awesome site, where a group called Juuji Kizu Productions is currently producing a fan-made radio play of Kenshin's Jinchuu Arc. You can download manga scanlations and read as you listen and, I must say, the acting and casting is magnificent. They've currently done three episodes, but more are on the way. Please check it out- they deserve all the praise and attention for the wonderful job they're doing!
