Sorry to create any excitement as this isn't a proper update. Boy, writer's block is a real bitch, innit? It's been months since I even attempted to work on this story! I still have the rest floating around in my head, but Real Life has conspired to capture my full attention.
Thanks awfully to the kind folks who recently checked to make sure I wasn't dead. I'm not and I anticipate a return to writing in the very near future. In the meantime, have you been following Rickfan37's continuing adventures of Snape and Co.? Or Arachne's Child's absolutely wonderful iDomina Rising/i, The Stars Hold Nine Serpents's intoxicating iDark Herbal/i, Silver Phoenix25's now-complete iBury the Hatchet/i and iPerfect World/i, Shadowycat's engaging iIs a Picture …/i series, or Elyse2's sweet iConnected/i? You haven't?!? Hurry! You're missing some bgreat/b stories. They're all currently housed here at FF.net, so you really don't have an excuse, do you?
