Sorry guys, this is not an update, but I feel it is important to put this out there at the moment. My last chapter should be out in about a day, or less.

As has come to my attention recently, this site is planning a large scale purge of mature content.

This upheaval puts thousands of amazing stories at risk of deletion, because of content that is considered sexual, violent, and so on. Obviously many of you know why this is a concern to me, and I'm sure a lot of you have other authors you follow (or you yourself) with the same reasons to worry. But more importantly I feel this is a gross waste of people's hard work, dedication, talent, and aspirations when far better solutions can be used to better filter the content on this site.

There are petitions spreading throughout the internet- facebook, tumblr, even this very site- to put a stop to this attempt at stifling individuals' creativity. I ask all of you who believe that this site should remain free for aspiring writers to express their creativity in whatever way possible to sign these petitions and let the administrators know that your discontent with this situation.

There is one particular petition that is nearing 9,000 signatures thus far (at 7:30 pm MST June 5th, 2012). Go to Change . org (without the spaces) and search out 'Fanfiction . net : STOP the destruction of Fanfiction . net!' (again without the spaces in the site name) to sign and join the thousands hoping to prevent the mass upheaval of this site.

Update: After careful consideration, after the fact, lol... while I still highly dislike censorship, I understand that changes will more than likely be made throughout the site. If it comes to that, I will still continue to post the vast majority of my work here, but anything that pushes that border than has been deemed unacceptable, will be edited out and re-posted separately on a different site. I know the same thing has been done in the past (such as when the MA rating was removed 10 yrs ago), so, if need be, I will utilize other creative forums so that anyone who does life to read my work in it's entirety can still do so, though elsewhere.

Thank you for your patience with my note- this whole thing kinda came as a shock to me today, I'm still trying to process how I intend to go about dealing with this.
