I'm going to be taking a leave of absence from Fimfiction and ponies in general.  Reading is one of my favourite pass-times and I love the worlds that can be shaped with words, but school has been piling up and running me ragged.  Something has to give, and it seems this is it.

Now you may be wondering "Luminous my dear chap, you haven't written any stories and you've only made one blog post, so why bother telling us this?"  Well, I happen to know that some people appreciate the feedback that I give for stories I read.  For those taking time to read this (you know who you are) know that I have not given up on reading your stories; I fully hope to see them to fruition, it's just that time is rapidly becoming a commodity of which I am finding myself lacking.  Before I can afford to dream I need to be able to afford to live, and this means I need to focus on learning as much as I can at school.

I will be back, whether it takes a month or three, or even a year, I will return.  And then maybe, just maybe, I'll have a story of my own to tell.

Until such a time, this is Luminous_Lead, winking out.
