The Longest Authors Note
Hiya! I just wanted to let ya all know that I'm not dead over here! I do have some new information for you concerning my stories and my status. To start, the reason I haven't been updating anything is because first of all, school was just getting out about a week ago, and I had so much going on, trying to do some last minute grade checks and ect. Second of all, On Sunday, June 24th, I got on a plane and traveled for 5.5 hours to Washington D.C., where I then got on a bus for another 3 hours and traveled to a hotel. I was in Washington D.C. for about a week, and I returned on Thursday, June 28th. While I was in D.C., I was denied the use of a computer at all, and in fact, denied anything that would help me write onto my stories. All we did was toured, for almost 9 hours each day, walking around and taking pictures, etc. So, as you can see, this is a major reason for not updating. Before that, I simply didn't feel like doing any writing, don't ask me why. I have started on Ch 2 of The Evil Within, but it is unfinished and unedited. If you simply cannot live without reading some of it, I suggest you take a look at the preview, which I have bestowed upon you.
To tell the truth, even though I haven't been writing on any of my stories, I am quite proud of myself, I've managed to actually finish two of my works. Usually when I write something, I never finish it, and I loose interest. Unfortunately, this has happened in the case of River of White. I know I told some of you that I would be editing and re-posting it, but in all truth, I have failed to do even that. Therefor, I am discontinuing it, it will get the idea off my back. There are two reasons for this, the first, I have already pointed out to you being that I simply lost interest. The second is that I realize that it doesn't really fit in with the Silver Millennium story line. When I say this, I'm not talking about the fact that I altered it by putting the pilots in the story. I did however, do some research on the Silver Millennium, by reading more of what I had read before and looking on some information websites, and I realized that I could make the story work, but I would have to rewrite it completely, and not to mention, change the name. I'm saying here that RIVER OF WHITE is dead. In the very FAR future, I plan to toy with the idea of rewriting it completely, with somewhat the same story line, and changing the name to fit with the story line.
If any of you care, I am thinking about rewriting Change of Spice and Tasting Rain: Imperial Melody. I won't take these stories down, but I will probably be putting up a website that has the rewritten versions on it so you can read them as well. You probably will see more work coming up this summer because I'll have a lot of free time on my hands! I'll also be on my computer--a lot! I'm taking a review course over the internet for credits, and I'll probably want a break once and awhile. I want to thank all of you that have read and reviewed CoS, TR:IM, and TEW! I promise that I will try to finish chapter two of TEW ASAP!!!
Luv ya!
