I apologise to you all for this non-chapter, I had always declared I would never write an AN as a chapter, however circumstances have made necessary.

As you have probably noticed, the posting of this story has slowed to a crawl this year, this has been due to my focus being more home based. Sadly my MIL is in the final stages of a long terminal illness and while both she and the other adults have made our peace, I have two little girls who are struggling to deal with the imminent death of their Grandma. My focus must be on them.

Despite this, I have been slowly working on the chapter 15 and a supporting outtake for Jealousy. I can guarantee that the story will be completed and will most likely consist of three more chapters, an epilogue, and two future takes (both of which have already been written).

One of the future-takes may not meet the recently enforced rules of FFn and I will post a marker chapter advising of its location should I decide to keep it in its current form.

On that point, should my story/account disappear at any time, I will mirror post all my stories on The Writers Coffee Shop (TWCS) - thewriterscoffeeshop *dot* com/library/viewuser *dot* php?uid=60802 - under the same author name - feckle

Recrortus (and possibly others) will remain on LiveJournal - feckle *dot* livejournal *dot* com - which also includes the wonderful banner artwork produced by davincis_girl as part of the vampirebigbang.

Again I apologise for this non-chapter and I will promise to try to never do it again.
