A lot of time has passed since I last updated my profile...or any of my fics. A lot has happened, too. I won’t bore anyone with tedious details and simply apologize to everyone waiting on thus far non-existent updates. I wish I had good news and that I can promise updates in the near future. Unfortunately, that’s highly unlikely at this stage.

A simple explanation would be I’ve had issues to deal with in RL. A more detailed explanation would include my mother’s major illness followed by a lengthy stay in the hospital which eventually resulted in her death. There were other things that happened, but they paled in comparison on my personal Stress Scale.

I will try, in the future, to either complete my unfinished fics or, at 5he very least, attempt to either continue them or write SOMETHING. At this stage, I’d even settle for a single sentence.

August 14, 2012:

It seems my Muse has gone into semi-retirement. I'm hoping that at some point I'll be able to get a bit of work out of it, but at the moment I'm not holding out much hope of it being any time soon. I'm considering all my unfinished fics (last count being 23 fics) to be on semi-permanent hiatus effective immediately. I apologize to everyone who has faithfully followed and exhibited almost supernatural patience while waiting for thus-far non-existent updates.

Pet Peeves

1. Kleenex ripping in half (or itty bitty tiny little pieces) when I try to pull it out of the box.
2. Microdaft Updates. Bah. Annoying as hell and a waste of time (but, they claim it's necessary).
3. Uncooperative gizmos, gadgets, and thingamajigs.
4. Argumentative Plot Bunnies and Muses that just can't seem to make up their bloody minds one way or another.
5. Flamers. You know, those asinine cretins who think bad grammar and poorly spelled words declaring in their own moronic way "YOU SUCK" is in any way a "review".
6. Trying to remember multiple passwords and usernames (I have a TERRIBLE memory!).

More to come as I think of 'em.
