Where have I been? · 11:43pm Feb 16th, 2016

I'm sure that some of you have noticed that I haven't updated any of my stories in almost a month. You may be wondering what's up. The short answer is that I've been extremely busy settling into a new job. This one, while better-paying, requires longer hours and is considerably more physically demanding than my prior work. So, honestly, I've mostly been too tired to write during my less-frequent free time this past month.
