A Note from the Author

Regarding some very important news.

Firstly, I'd like to apologise for the incredibly long absence. Life has been very busy for me lately and I quite simply don't have the time to write. Which is really what this note is about.

I promised I would never abandon this story, and I intend to keep that promise. Owing to some recent news about a very sudden change in my life, however, that will be very difficult. In short, I'll be leaving in a few weeks to be a missionary. My 'trip' will be more of a move than a trip, since it will last for 18 months. During that time, I will be completely unable to write. If I'm going to serve, I ought to do it wholeheartedly, right? Because of this, I will have to put a long term hold on this story. Rest assured, however, it won't be abandoned. I have a plan:

I will leave this story up while I am travelling. During that time, my sister has graciously agreed to take over this page for me, answering comments/PMs, that sort of thing. When I get back, I will not be continuing this version of the story. Instead, I will start over from the beginning, revamping the whole thing. That way, the whole story will flow better and be, in my opinion, a better story. I do not plan on making any major changes to the plot or anything, but I suppose I can't really make any guarantees about that since it will be so far in the future. ^^;

For now, please accept my apologies for this sudden and dramatic hiatus. I would also like to thank the many wonderful supporters I have had for this work so far. I can't tell how much it means to me to login to FFnet and see new readers, favourites, and reviews. I would especially like to thank those of you who have left reviews for me: Fire'sTiger, Wild-Dog84, princessofd, Immortal-Puppet-Otaku, Amaya Sakaruta, kkbug33, Asteague, Sphinx is epic, the Zogg, and all the anonymous reviewers (TCMG, nartog, and Paco). Your support really does mean the world to me.

I am so incredibly excited about this sudden turn my life has taken, despite the fact that it means I will have to put this story on hiatus. I look forward to what the next years have in store for me. I'll see you all in two years!

Love,

The RockBabi
