Radioactive

by fandom-duty-honor

Infected. She hated being called that. As the only one resistant, Artemis has the weight of the world on her shoulders. Not only does she have to travel across country to provide a cure, but she has to do it with no more than her best friend and try not to be killed by the mysterious group following them. A "The Last of Us" inspired AU. M for language, violence, sassy stuff

5. (Author's Note)

This is one of those chapters.

I've been a terrible fic writer lately, guys. I know. Radioactive is already a fic I am soooo proud of because it's so much better from where I started. Unfortunately, right now, I do not have the time to dedicate to the work. I have bits and pieces of the story lying around and even a complete timeline on tumblr. But right now, I just can't.

I just applied for graduation this spring, and have been working very hard to make sure I don't let this slip by. I need to graduate for about a million reasons, and if I get wrapped up in fics, I can't dedicate my time to school the way I should.

This fic invades my dreams basically every night. New ideas, new ways to write scene, always debating the ending I have planned...

Now by no means I am not giving up on this fic. There will be a new chapter out over my spring break which begins next week that will actually be plot. Wow we're finally getting there. Plan for something actually worth reading come the 15th (Pi Day!).

It's frustrating for you - I get it. Right now I am kicking myself, but really, my mind needs to be on graduating college. It's not worth the risk to me, nor is it to you, because you amazing readers DO NOT deserve a shitty fic. You are the reason for my confidence, and I want to give you my best.

Thanks for understanding, and being an amazing cyber support group. You may not realize it, but you guys have meant the world to me.

I'll see you soon :D
