AN: (This is good news, not bad by the way, so please don't have a heart attack or throw the computer against the wall. I've been known to freak when someone who hasn't written in awhile puts up an Author's Note Anyway…)
I just wanted to pop in and let you all know that I do plan on continuing with this story. I feel really bad about leaving you all in the dark for so long. RL has just been keeping me busy and I've found that I like spending my free time reading fan fiction as opposed to writing it. But I've kinda drifted back into writing mode. I'm trying my best to stay away from spoilers, and there's just so many out there nowadays. When people warn about spoilers in their stories, I feel tempted to read them anyway. And then there are the times that people might put spoilers in their summaries. Lots of people I know who are trying to stay away from them have been spoiled like that. So I'm not reading as much fan fiction anymore. Just stuff I know is safe, or AU stories. And the best way to pass the time so I don't feel tempted to read them is to write. :) What better way to pass the time?
So anyway, I am working on chapter 3 right now. I wrote like half of it a long time ago, and I have to find it – it's floating around the house somewhere. After I type that, I have to finish the rest, get it beta'd, etc. But I'll get it done soon hopefully. Can't promise when. The other good news is that I have spring break next week, so plenty of free time to write then too. ;) So I'll get chapter 3 up soon.
A note on the story itself: I realize that the episode this is based on ("The Killer in Me") aired ages ago. But it's not gonna change this at all. I'll still write it like I had planned from the beginning, as if the episode hasn't happened yet. So the spoilers for this story are still only up until the one before KiM ("Potential", 7-12). Any similarities between what I write and what actually happened is purely dumb luck. It's still gonna happen how I wanted it to.
So for those of you who kept pestering me to finish it, I thank you. You guys did a good job of setting me straight. I enjoy all your wonderful reviews and all your encouragement. :) As they say – "The show must go on." Look for chapter 3 soon. :) Thanks again guys. :)
