Dear everyone,
Thank you for all your support over this fic.
Now, before you begin to get worried, this is a little note to just have a small author/reader talk. As there is a great need for one right now. I am FULLY aware that you lot will have been itching to see CloTi somewhere in this update, "Er, a chapter would be nice Jessie!" I here you all, I do. But...There isn't gonna be one.
Let me explain.
I was writing away over the past month, maticulously mulling over every detail so everything was right. Every bit was written at least three times, as I was never quite happy with it until I had stressed over it enough. So, twelve careful pages later - it happens.
I have a good reliable firewall, anti-virus - the whole combo. Trust me, I'm worried being a writer! I back storis up by way of uploading them onto where I can get them whenever I want, regardless of what happens to my comp. But one day, I get in from work, and my neice has been round. Parents neglected to tell me until I got in, that the little sod (okay, she's eleven, so not so little) got upset when her game wouldn't load - it crashed because the disc was scratched - and so she decided to flick off the power switch.
Yeah, by this point, I was looking at my mum, fully loaded to shoot the messenger in this case. After that, I would happilly dispose of the anti-christ - my neice. So, I had to be the one to restore the computer, and so losing ANY DATA ON THE COMPUTER.
Yes, my CloTi chapter I'd slaved over, throghout my A2 exams! I was worse than angry. Depressed doesn't even cut it. All I can say is, from now on, anything I write, I will email it to myself and save it as a draft - I do not trust floppy discs before you ask. But...despite the fic's I update onto I had a good load of scrap chapters of made-up original works that I never knew I'd miss so much. I had one especially I was going to use to kick start an account in Elfwood's Wyvern library, I was so proud of it. But hey, it's gone.
Look, there may be no excuse for my carelessness, but I have to tell you all, I am so genuinly upset. For those of you thinking"yeah right, you're just making this up because you're too lazy to update!" This is serious. I would be offended anyone could think it. Just, I have to say, I am so close to putting WHROM on hold. I never wanted to do it, but until I get any shreds of my original CloTi chapter back, I cannot update. It is a chapter everyone is expecting to be of standard,the main reason is thatI want to -and have to -do CloTi fans justice - myself included.
Every time i try to write a bit of it again, I delete it all because i get stressed over it just not being good enough. SoI am sorry, I really am, but the update will be a month away at least. I finish my exams this friday, for the year, so hopefully that will make all my plans with work other than this fic, gone. I will try my best, you guys deserve it, and I am truelly sorry about this.
If you want to send me angry rants about my slackness, feel free. My email is please, feel free. Or in general, you want to comment at all on this rant, email me. Because, if you review this so-called 'chapter' on it won't count towards my story, and i will delete this 'chapter' within a small while, so it will be pointless. Any rare support will do me so much good you wouldn't believe. Just please don't run off and refuse to read or review me anymore. While this gap on CloTi is here, I'll update my other side fics if I can, to give you guys something.
I'm sorry guys.
Xx Jessie xX
