EDIT November 4, 2015: At least five years have passed since I was properly active on this site, and I, unfortunately, do not see that changing. My story Hanging On is on permanent hiatus. Better yet, consider it abandoned seeing as I have no current plans in finishing it. I do, however, quite enjoy reading the works of the brilliant authors on here, so I will be around. Therefore, if you have anything you wish to ask or comment on regarding my stories (especially those concerning Hanging On), feel free to contact me. I will always try to respond promptly.

I haven't been on here in months. I also haven't actually written anything for months and months. Those who read and still read my stories, I apologize. I have no excuse or reason for my absence except that life got in the way. I've been thinking seriously about attempting to finish my story Hanging On. However, I doubt that I will ever get around to it. Either way, I appreciate every single person that has ever left me a review, added me to favorites, and pm'ed me. Each and every one of you have touched me in some way or another. Whenever I received an alert I was beyond happy and surprised; I didn't, and still don't, think my writing is all that great. But my readers convinced me otherwise at times. I am grateful for every person that came into my life, however briefly, through this site. And I truly hope that I can find the time to continue writing and touch base with all my wonderful reviewers once more.

I, Blackened-Downpour, do solemnly swear to review all the fics I read, regardless of the number of reviews, its age, or anything else.

I really do not feel like getting sued at the moment for any sort of copyright infringement, so I will type it once, loud and clear:

I do not own any of these wonderfully amazing characters--excepting, of course, my own characters--therefore, I am not about to go off and try to earn any money whatsoever by exploiting these. The only thing I am guilty of here is borrowing Stephenie Meyer and J.K. Rowling's stupendous creations of imagination and playing with them. Possibly make them do my bidding and be my personal slaves...but that, I am afraid, is my own private business...
