I would like to write an apology over three years too late. When I first started writing this story three years ago, I had a lot of time on my hands and a lot of ideas for it. I have a completely different computer now, and all of those notes that I had for this story are long gone. I don't even remember who I had kidnap Vernon and Petunia now. A lot has changed since I started writing this story. I now have a small daughter of my own, she is just a little over two years old. And I cannot finish a story about an abused child now that I have a little girl of my own and another one on the way. I don't know, I just can't do it. Today is the first time I've read the story in three years. I was unemployed for a while when I wrote this, and then I found a job in a different city that took up most of my time and I ended up forgetting all about this story. I have a different email now, but this morning I logged into my old email and I was shocked by all of the PMs and reviews I had from this site. I haven't logged onto this site in years. I figured just from all of the PMs (one even came yesterday) that I owe faithful readers an explanation. I am sure from the amount of people who were asking for me to continue that this chapter will be a disappointment. However, I figured mainly because of the PMs (I still have over 50 to read!) that I'd better log onto this site and leave a message for everyone. This story will not be continued from me. I had an idea, that if someone really wants it finished they can finish it. I give you permission, and you'll probably be a better writer than I was then. I'm still not too sure who took Vernon and Petunia out... a voice in the back of my head says Mad Eye, but I'm really not 100% on that. I have a written a few of my own fictions in the last three years, and the writing in this seems kind of mediocre. I suppose everyone has to start from somewhere though. Anyway, I just wanted to log in here, and let you know what was happening and why this story hasn't been touched in almost four years. I do apologize.
