We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, ey?

I was excited when I opened my inbox to find someone requesting permission to turn Philosophy of the Gator into an audio! Of course, I couldn’t help but give all the permissions!
So I haven't written a word since September 2016. Wow. 10 months away from writing is kinda frustrating me now, and I'd like to get back into it.
The 'tl,dr;' of my absence essentially boils down to personal troubles and a lack of motivation to keep going. It's somewhat annoying as I really do love writing once I sit down and actually do it, but my head has been so overrun it's been hard to concentrate on anything.
I thought I'd have another stab at a more grandiose story. After the mildly positive response for 'Spike: The Dragon Princess', I feel like I need something to focus on for a while.
It's been a while since I've been on here. Reason being I have kidney stones.
I was admitted to hospital just over a week ago (I was let out within about 12 hours, so it's not all bad), but the week since then has seen me shift from being in excruciating pain, to feeling spaced out, to being asleep -and not much else- for the past week.
For anyone who was following Twilight's Choice; it has been removed... temporarily.
My work on 'Spike: The Dragon Princess' has improved my writing immensely, and I want to take the time to tear this story down and rebuild it from the ground up.
It will be in hiding until I can make better use of it, but it will be back soon and hopefully much better than before.
It's been almost a month since I last updated my Spike story, but today (on my 27th birthday, too), it's finally complete. I apologise for the long wait, but it's been a busy month of socialising and working and my writing has taken a back seat.
Hopefully I can now start getting some of my other projects completed, and I hope you all stick around to see what's next; I have a plethora of ideas just waiting to burst forth. You'll have to wait and see which one springs out first.
Changed the story name. After recommendations to change the title of the story, I think I've picked one that hopefully won't clash with anything.
As a new writer, I'm not entirely up in the etiquette for story titles. I learned that naming things after other things is a big faux pas, which makes a lot of sense, and I guess I should have noticed that from the off, but there we go.
Not sure how to tag users to thank them, but if you're reading this, MythrilMoth, thank you for the advice!
The one thing I've always loved about this community since joining almost three years ago is just how friendly and helpful everyone is.
I remember trawling deviantart and seeing drawings that were, if I'm totally honest, below par, and the internet had -up until that point- had such a profound effect on my mindset that I'd expect such images to go either completely unloved or filled with words of how unbelievably shit they were.
