Guess what day it is.

Come on, guess. Guess. Guess.

Done guessing? It's the first year anniversary of my creating a fanfiction account! Huzzah! *Dying party noise maker sound*

I wanted to make sure that I got a message out to everyone today about what's going on, and I figured that since I'm a Member of the PTA is my most popular story, it would be the best place to post this so that as many people as possible would read it.

First, some good news:

I finally got around to getting my old files back from the drive from my old computer, and they were all safe! This means that all of my work for Five Swords and The Cult of Steve are still in tact, which means that I can finally resume writing those stories! Finally! *Puff of confetti* If you have no idea what those are, check out my profile. You've got some catching up to do.

Nextly, some neutral news: (Yes, I know that's not a word, Microsoft, chill)

I don't know if any of you have noticed, but I have a profile. On that profile, there is a poll. You should look at that poll. If I actually get any responses on that poll, it could influence which story I update or start writing first, so check it out if you've got the time.

Lastly, some not so great news.

Since my last update of I'm a Member of the PTA, I have not received any news from the fan fiction help desk email thing about login27's little "review". Just now, (literally just now) however, I recieved an email from login27 in the form of a review, asking for me to turn anonymous reviews back on. Oddly enough, it was as an anonymous review, which I guess means that turning off anonymous reviews only keeps them from showing up on the website? Seems a bit counterintuitive, but I guess it doesn't matter. I'll leave a message at the bottom of this page for login27 to read.

Anyway, like I was saying: it's not that I want to abandon this story, not at all! This is the most reviews, favorites, and follows I've ever gotten, which I guess speaks a lot for the audience I've managed to garner. Truth be told, I've run out of ideas and mojo, which was what I was mostly going off of to begin with. This goes for the other stories as well: I don't really plan to immediately jump back into the writing game. I mean, I might. Maybe tomorrow, or the day after, or in a week, or never. I guess I'm just not very motivatable. I mean, I've always had this problem, at least for a long time. I think about doing something like writing, and the energy just weighs into the marrow of my arms and under my sternum, and I only desire to lounge on the internet and not exist. Not existing in the sense that I would never have responsibilities, not necessarily be dead, though I wonder if that wouldn't be too bad sometimes.

I'm getting off track.

Short of it: don't expect immediate updates. I wasn't done with the chapters I was working on when my computer crashed and burned, so I'd have to work on them before anything happened.

What do you all think?

What should I try to update first? Leave a reveiw that tells me what you think, and please examine the poll and leave your oppinion. It's been a pretty eventful year. Cheers to you all, and I'll hopefully see you again real soon. Until then!

And now, a section especially for login27:

So, um. Hey, I guess.

It's been a while. About two weeks. A little late to apologize, right?

And why the anonymous facade? It's not like I don't know you have a profile or anything.

But I guess I'm being too harsh.

The whole purpose of turning off anonymous reviews was so that I wouldn't have to see your name in my email inbox. But I guess that's not how this works.

So, yeah. I'll turn anonymous reviews back on, but I want you to do something for me.

Send me a PM from your profile.

Let's be private instead of bantering across the fields of reviews and updates. It's a tad silly for the huge deal I've made of it. Let's keep this our business so that we're not bothering anyone. Seems like a simple request, no?

Also, apologizing without an explanation? Why bother? Not trying to be sarcastic or anything, I'm just curious.

All turning anonymous reviews off did was keep it from appearing the review bank on the story. You could've kept harassing me without anyone seeing it. This change in attitude is... not sudden, most certainly, but it is curious. I want to know more.

I look forward to your PM.

With all due respect,

Yours The Author.
