[Alsvid And The Serious Business] Stark Reality Update · 11:51pm Mar 16th, 2015
This ain't no vacation. Really, it isn't. I usually take holiday vacations from this site, on occasion, but I'll have you all know this time something quite serious did occur. My Internet Service Provider suspended my account, forcing me to post this off a library computer.
It's funny, really, because a few other people on this website, prior to my service being interrupted, also experienced being taken offline. This gives me reason to believe that there is a Conspiracy afoot.
You may wonder why I don't just use my cellphone to browse the Internet, like other sane individuals. Well, that got cut off as well.
That's my iOs platform. As you can see, I have no service. Very briefly, the power company shut off the electricity to my house, as well. It was terrifying, especially since I experienced a snowstorm during the interval without power. You can imagine the scene - Yours Truly, sitting in a freezing house, staring at a dead computer, wrapped with a quilt, of course, so that I could keep warm.
I also managed to forfeit two writing contests while all of this was going on, and for that, I apologize profusely. To make it up to you all, I have decided to see all four projects to completion.
Even if I have to write them on paper with my bare hands, I shall do so. These setbacks have only strengthened my resolve. I managed to pay off the power company, so my house has electricity again, allowing me to work on my computer, but, sadly, I am unable to connect to the Internet.

Whew. It's been a pretty wild few weeks, guys. Being Exiled From The Internet, roughing it in my own house...oh, and I've started going back to school. The Time Has Come.
I have also been drawing fervently every day, so one day I can draw your OC's for you.
I think that's all. I'd like to apologize profusely to everyone, especially those who may have thought that I was busy having a great time on a beach somewhere, being hugged by people with large breasts while knocking back margaritas. I was very worried and upset about my FiMFic pals, and I hope that you weren't all sleepless with concern over my situation. I'll get through this. I swear!
Fairly sure I know what [Hidden Title] is. Cannot wait for that to update, lemme tell ya!

Partly why I want to get these Contest Submissions off my chest is so I can give my old fics some much-needed care and feeding, yes.
It's nice to see you too. And you might be surprised.
I could potentially work on all of them at the same time, but it strikes me as an unsafe idea.
It should be clear that, while I am not operating at maximum capacity, I have not stopped work and will continue to update. However, I'll be online sporadically, since I have to visit the Library to access the net.
This should change soon and I should have connectivity at my house in the near future!
Thank you for believing in me.
