Dear Readers/Followers/OUAT Fanfiction community-
I'm writing this as a separate update because I don't want to deposit it within one of my stories and make you think "Oooh! A new chapter! FINALLY!" when it's something as boring as this. So if you clicked on this and want to keep reading- thanks for caring!
I haven't updated my currently open stories (Tomorrow Never Knows, The Man and the Legend, Needing You) for an uncharacteristically amount of time. Mainly for 3 reasons- 1) I'm expecting my 2nd child which means life just got crazier, 2) Had a lot of "life events" happen which resulted in me barely being home some days, and 3) My "muse" just lost momentum.
Thank you to the readers who have been patiently waiting for these stories to update. Here's what I'm thinking about for these open stories.
1) "Needing You" - There's been some confusion about this story. It's unrelated one shots, not a complete chapter-by-chapter story. I'll keep updating this as inspiration hits. There has been an in much demand chapter concerning David and Snow finding out about Emma being pregnant, so I'll keep that in mind. And since it's in such high demand, I owe it to you to make it good!
2) "Tomorrow Never Knows" - Honestly, I got so caught up in season 3 that my attempts to write parallel canon chapters got away from me. Neal's death also put a chink in where I thought the season was going, so I'm debating whether I should continue to stay canon or steer off into what I originally had in mind. In the meantime, just keep watching "Snow Drifts/There's No Place Like Home" to tide you over- that's what I do!
3) "The Man and the Legend" - Sorry guys, I posted this way too early. I had big plans for this, but I think I need to take it down, dust it off, work out some bugs and then repost. I created too many problems for myself with where I want to go and what I already established. Once I finished, I might even find a BETA to look it over, because you readers deserve a good story after I dangled in front of you then took it away! So if anyone is willing to BETA someday, please message me.
So, with my time quickly ticking away before I have another kid (approx. 5 weeks left! AAAHHH!), I'll post when I can, but they'll probably be one shots for a while. And I have about 20+ working story ideas in the background, so if I find one that has the momentum and the drive that some of the stories I'm more proud of contain (like "Finding Love" and "Lightning in a Bottle"), I will definitely post in regular installments. I have one that's nearly ready that I'd like to post within the next week, so just sit tight!
Thank you again for being such a fun community of readers. I've loved getting your comments, replies & requests. And again, thank you for your patience!

p.s.- I challenge someone to write a story about the random characters I threw onto "who this story is about."
