Hey guys,

So basically...I am ashamed :( I hate it when people don't update stories or don't finish them, and here I am doing the exact same thing! I've had a really busy few years, it's been really busy the last year because I was in my final years of high school (yeah, I'm like, ancient) and am now at uni.

But I have decided to finish all my stories, because I think it's the only ethical thing to do. I probably won't start any more, unless of course I am published and then I might write some fanfiction of my own stuffs :P haha that won't happen though.

SO! I am finishing my stories that I have started. I am not going to finish them fast though, it will probably take me a year or two because I have so many and they're all so long! I will have to write them in an order as well, so you will have to live with me - your story will probably take a while to be finished!

The order I am doing it in is as follows:

konoha's fallen leaves

team eight

despite apperences

I thought

the sasuhina chronicles :)

And then that's it for me and fanfiction I think :( though I adore it, I find it really hard to juggle with writing my own original stories - and since I have decided to give this writing thing a shot, I don't have enough time to juggle what could possibly be my income and something that is fun in a way I'm happy with (I mean come on, a year with no updates isn't fair on anyone!). I'm really going to miss fanfics because they're so brilliant to write if you want to delve into a character without having to put up their background. Maybe I'll do oneshots...but never chapter fics :P

I love you guys and I love this community, you're all so supportive and fantastic and it's you who've put so much confidence in my and my writing. I would not be where i am now without you, and I'm really sorry I betrayed you like this and haven't updated in so long. I just want you to know that if I do get published, it's you guys who have helped me most, because though friends and family give me endless support - it's the idea that people I don't know, people I've never met being touched by what I write that keeps me passionate. I want to move people with the power of language, and you've made me believe I can do it. I promise in my first book (wait...if I have a first book!) I'll give a shout out to y'all in the fanfic community ya hear :D

Now there are SO MANY ideas I have in my head that I think would be great stories for naruto, so if you would like to hear them and then write them up on your own just message me. There's also heaps of other fandoms that i have ideas for, such as supernatural, so if you're reading this and want some ideas of your own message me and I'll get back to you :)

You guys rock!

In America!

If it's a strange pairing, I ship it. End of story. xD
