Hello All

I know I know it's taken forever for me to update and now all I have is this author's note. If I get in trouble with ff for doing this then hope y'all read this before it gets taken down.

First off, I apologize for the non-update lately. I have been going through some pretty major turbulences in my life lately, which has left me wondering myself where I stand with my writing.

I have written a lot of snippets for Fragile Strength. As I mentioned before, I have every intention of finishing this story, what is unclear even to me at this point is when am I able to do that?

I believe in writing when the moment is right, when the characters are speaking to me, which is why so far what I have is a lot of drabble and snippets but I am left with no connecting scenes and paragraphs and it is quite chopped up.

I have even written snippets of different Jalice one-shots, cos as you all know, I love Alice / Jasper and I will be writing them for the rest of my days.

My writing must really reflect my life right now, as I'm going through crap, everything is fuzzy and unclear.

So I am left to wonder…is it better for me to update with the drabble that I have so far, which deviates from my original plan of having an actual story? Or should I just put this baby on hold while I work out my shit?

Let me know what you would prefer. Either way, please know that one way or another I plan on finishing this. As well as giving you more Jalice one-shots. As I really want to give them a voice. The world on ff has so much Bellward stories that it breaks my heart…but that is another completely different issue I have…

I hope all of this makes sense to you, as I write this unfocused and confused…

In the meantime, please go to my fave Jasper Alice stories on my faves list and you will get your fill of them there.

Again, I apologize, and here's to hoping I get over this funk soon so I can start writing again.

Thank you all.

Bev
