    Because I'm a workaholic and just 'cos

    That is why. It's been that long since I've even logged on there is like 1513 thingies in my feed, and if I was a bird I would be concerned. Ugggh, yes, I'm that braindead that I thought that was funny...

    Update!

    Soooo...

    Yeah, just 'cos I know whats going on doesn't mean everyone else does. Seems pretty straightforward, right? You would think so...
    Right! So, the reason I haven't updated squat, or been doin' nothin' towards updating anyone is....

    I got nothin'.

    Update!

    Wow! What an awesome first week! Just a bit of an update so you all know what to expect.

    First up, the launch was a little poorly planned. I had a bunch of commitments that was always going to slow things down, like visiting the family over Easter and such.

    But then, I never thought this story was going to be even remotely popular, let alone be featured...

    First few days and loving it!

    I've got SO much really good feedback from all of you, and it has been Awesome <3
    I am learning a lot and really enjoying the process of figuring out what it is I am doing wrong, and working to fix my mistakes. Please, don't hold back on my part, and continue with your feedback! I'll only get better at compiling this story, and that means a better story all round.

    Also, this happened.

    The why and how of it.

    So, some of you may have noticed I went and dumped all seven chapters I had in my backlog all at once.

    Strange? Yes. Insanity? Perhaps. Vegan? Probably not.

Soooo...

No! I moved, I've been busy at work... And as many other excuses that I can come up with as to why I haven't just buckled down and got to typing. Whilst the aforementioned excuses are true, and could be construed as genuine reasons for the lack of progress, they would be shallow and pointless misdirection at best, and downright cowardly untruths in the harsh lights of reality.

No, dear readers! The fact of the matter, and all it's blame lays at my own feet. I just haven't done it. Yes I have a full time job and it asks a lot. Yes I did move recently and that has eaten up a lot (almost every...) of my spare time and weekends, with moving, arranging, re-arranging and just getting the house in order.

But I could have done more IF I WANTED TO! So on that note, I have kicked myself in the keister and got back to editing and writing and even more editing... Oi, if you ever get it in your head that you can do this without someone editing for you, reconsider your life choices and then cave your own skull in with a claw hammer. Seriously, editors save all the things!

Anyhoo, what to expect. I will finish editing that backlog and repost the edited material. I will do this at the same time as my next chapter, which IS coming, AFTER it is edited :P So thats me. I DO genuinely apologise to those who are/were waiting, and I have no intention of letting you all down. But things are happening and stuff is getting done, and if I had a redo button, I would just... redo all the things that had anything to do with how I have managed this whole... writing story thing... caper? Is it a caper... or and endeavor?

...

Misadventure?

If you need a second pair of eyes for anything regard the fic, feel free to gimme a shout.

Never rush writing. (Unless your friend gives you a speed challenge... thank you, Pussuss :ajbemused:)

That aside, you should write when you feel the inspiration strike you, not when you feel the need to update due to time. Real fans never leave you, believe me.
