Alright, I'm finally going to put this out there. You guys probably hate me already, but then, you have good reason to, as I haven't been very responsive---although to one recentreviewer: it mostcertainly has not been over a year :-/--- part of the reason is that my junior year is coming up, and I've been on a lot of scouting trips for field hockey and college visits, but most of it is just me.

Please, please don't be angry with me takes breath but I'm closing this story for the time being. It isn't fair to you guys for me to keep saying "don't worry, I'll update in a month or two"; you've all been wonderful, and I think you deserve to be told what's happening with this. It's just that life is getting in the way right now, and I don't feel like this is going to get done. If I ever get a chance, I may open it back up, so you may want to check every year or so (exaggeration .-), but for right now, it's on hiatus. I'm so sorry.

If anyone is interested in continueing the story, you can review me a request, along with a link to a sample of your writing (sample not needed ifyou have an account here, of course .). Please be aware that I'm not going to let just anyone write it (it's still my baby), and I am very picky--- if you submit and I don't respond, don't be offended or anything. You don't want to know how many drafts I went through with this story just so I was happy with it.

Again, I wish to thank all of you for taking the time to read my story, and I'm sorry that I couldn't finish it for you.

Cheers, Winter Fleur

p.s. okay, I just read over this whole thing, and it seems kinda depressing. Just in case you were wondering, I'm not depressed or anything, I just feel bad that I let you guys down. And actually, my mood just turned to"exuding glee", as a delicious apple pie is about to come out of the oven so I can eat it.
