As of today, Thursday April 14th, 2011, I have ended my affiliation with Fanfiction.Net, and the rest of the fanfiction world. My efforts are fully focused on completing my novel, and using the rest of my free time on my fiance, my family, and my friends.

To those of you who reviewed my work loyally and fairly, thank you so much; it meant the world to me to be able to grow as a person and moreover as a writer during my stint here. I do have other work posted on Ficwad.Com under the same pen name, stories that were never posted here, if you wish to see them. Those fics that were completed are posted, and anything incomplete will remain that way on a permanent basis.

To those who sought and succeeded to permanently drive me off this site, congratulations, you have your wish; however, I leave the site just as I joined it, on my own terms, so your victory here is somewhat tainted. I choose to leave not because of your actions, but because fan fiction no longer has a place in my life, and hasn't for quite some time.

To those few people who made it worth being here to begin with. You know who you are, and you know how highly I think of you, as well as how highly I regard our friendship.

And with that, I bid you all adieu.
