This isn't another chapter, so don't freak out on me! I just wanted to get some things straight to avoid confusion. First off, yes, I am aware that the chapters are very confusing. I did not do this on purpose just to punish you all (trust me, if I was, I would've done something a lot worse Muahaha). When I submitted the first chapter, I wasn't complete with it. I then realized this and by the time I did, it was too late and I just decided to entitle the next chapter as "Chapter One Continuation". This is the system I have fallen victim to, and for that, I am sorry.

Next off, I am also aware that I do not update my stories daily and it has to do with what I just said about the chapter confusion. If I did, I would have to divide up the chapters as the following: "Chapter One" "Chapter One Part One" "Chapter One Part One Section One" and so on and so forth. So if having to actually muster the energy to not die from suspense versus confusion…well, I think the latter isn't worth it.

My last point before ending this is that I just wanted to leave you all a quick little note Thank you all so very much for the reviews and encouragement, you are all too kind (which I'd take over rude and obnoxious any day). It really means a lot to me and I know how completely corny that sounds, but even soulless creatures like me enjoy being appraised every once in a while.

So now that that's out of the way, I just want to share with you all a tidbit of information. I'm not sure whether it's because I work in mysterious ways that confuse people, but music really helps me write. So if any of you are curious, yes I do have some songs that help me really get into the City of Bones/Ashes/Glass/Fallen Angels (the last book GAH come out already!) mood. Here are some that I've been addicted to lately:

1) My Sweet Prince by Placebo (it makes me think of Jace and Clary and how Clary was slightly obsessive with Jace in the beginning and how even though we don't know, that obsessive nature isn't unrequited. Food for your thoughts, music for your soul.)

2) A Rapture by A Stereo Alchemy (This song is so sexual-innuendo sounding, it really inspired me to write the steamy make out scene between Clary and Jace. I even kind of felt like a pervert just writing it…is that normal?)

3) Running Up That Hill by Placebo (I don't know why but I just love their sensual kind of sound! I never even listened to this song but the sweet melody along with the haunting words kind of make me think of Magnus and Jace, the obvious belt bearers in the relationships hehe.)

4) Stripped by Shiny Toy Guns (I favor this cover out of all the covers out there because of the girl/guy duo, which made me think of Clary/Jace. Don't ask why, it was just a spur of the moment song that wound up being stuck in my brain for weeks ugh.)

5) Slow Me Down by Emmy Rossum (This automatically makes me think: Clary. Out of all the characters, I think she's the most troubled one, especially in the first book. This song gives me a headache just listening to it, but the good kind and that's how you know it's a good stress song!)

6) Feeling Good by Muse (Again, a really good cover that gives me the bittersweet vibe for some reason. It's like even though Matthew Bellamy is singing "…and I'm feeling good" it sounds like he's saying it in a sarcastic manner. I don't know if that's just me, but if you agree, please let me know. I hate sounding crazy because people always think I do.)

That's all for now, and I hope you all aren't mad at me for my sporadic updates
