Author's Note

Oh, how I hate the ubiquitous author's note. However, I find myself needing to write one to you due to unfortunate circumstances beyond my control from this past year.

First and foremost, I had computer issues. I was unable to get to my computer to write updates to my stories. That's correct, I couldn't get to my computer. You see, I have a health condition that sometimes makes it hard or damn near impossible to reach my computer. I was told without some lifestyle modifications that I would be in an even worse predicament. So, writing had to go on the back burner. I didn't have a laptop or have money for one. I am on a very limited income and it was all I could do to keep up with bills and household expenses.

I should have told you all sooner, but I kept thinking my health condition would be resolved. Instead, it kept getting worse. And weeks, and then months went by with no end in sight and I realized I wouldn't be having another update. Sometimes there would be a break and I'd be able to get a chapter of Sam out, but not of my Glee fic. For that I am sorry, I am working on both now.

I finally have a laptop! And I will be using it. I've had it for a few months, but it took a while to save up for the license I needed for the word document program to be able to type and use the machine. I am now working on both stories but between doctors' appointments, hospital trips, and possible therapy appointments thrown in there (if I'm ever able to drive again) well, it may be slow going.

I just wanted you to know that I am committed to Sam and to Glee and will hopefully have new chapters out within this month.

I hope this author's note wasn't too terribly horrible or painful. Or full of news that was too horrid. I just knew I needed to let you all know what was going on.

Please hang in there with me. I promise that I haven't given up.
