... And the hits just keep on comin'... · 12:53am Sep 22nd, 2014
Things have started to calm down in school so this weekend was supposed to be when I was going to get back into the rhythm and get something down on paper (or print or whatever...). But fate has blindsided me yet again, and this one's really left me reeling...
So on Friday I got a call out of the blue from some old friends of mine from another life. I hadn't heard from them in months, before I enlisted, so I had no idea what to expect... A mutual friend of ours, one of my very few girl friends, went out about a week ago and never came back... It's been over a week now and the odds of finding her alive and unharmed are increasingly dim...
Now as most of you know, as a sub there are a great many dangers we face on a regular basis. Things like lingering physical or psychological damage can happen very easily if you're not careful, which is why our subculture is built on absolute trust in our partners. Things like abductions and who knows what else after that are rare if you're being careful. My friend, much like myself when I was active, was not careful and she's paid the price for it... Thinking about all that, what she must be going through right now, and all the near-misses I've had has really put me out of sorts. I really don't know how I'm going to be able to get back to work on my life right now, much less my writing...
So, I'm afraid I'm going to have to extend this hiatus I've been on indefinitely until I figure things out again. Thankfully, at least Starfall will continue on in my absence as I don't write that story myself...
... Just fucking fuck everything...!
Well, I mean can you blame them? Even Hagity can see Fluttershy is too damn cute for her own good...
Things will get better. Trust this Old Wolf. and if you need an ear or two to talk off. I'm sure I got a few extras around here somewhere *starts looking around*
I think I speak for everyone when I say that some things take precedence over writing, and this is definitely one of them. This is not something to be taken lightly by anyone, especially when no answers exist to this horrible event. Added that you've had your share of near misses (and now survivor's guilt), it's going to take a while for things to resume normalcy. Starting writing on here served as an outlet for my pent-up emotions last year when I had my run-in with death... I hope you manage to find yours. But know that your loyal fans here will wait as long as it takes until you feel like writing again. And most importantly, you know you can always confide in us anything that may come up.
