A/N: Okay, I'm usually really against these.... author's notes chapters, but I felt the need to let you guys know what the hell has been going on with me. So I'll give you the bad news... and then the good news!
First things first though, I am going to explain my loooong hiatus (aside from that one-shot and my crackfic, which hardly counts). Well, I'd like to first of all blame my Hiatus on my poor health. This year has been the worst year in terms of how sick I've gotten (actually, I have a rather nasty cold right now... on fucking FINALS WEEK!). We think the cause of it is a cyst I got on my back, which by the way, is the most painful thing I have EVER had in my entire lifetime. That said, I'm having the damned thing removed next week. The surgery is supposed to be painless (thank god, I've had enough with the pain) so I should be back and running soon.
So, here's the bad news. This week (which I am calling shit week), I have had finals (which I am failing due to being sick. DX) and then, just as my luck would have it, my computer completely crashes.... which means any and all of my updates may be completely lost, including re-written chapters of many of my fanfics, and my original stories, not to mention my artwork, AMVS, and other unfinished projects. If I can't get those back, my motivation for a lot of these stories is gonna go down the drain.
But do not fear, there is hope. I may be able to recover my files (which would be amazing indeed. I needz my files. DX), which would be the best case scenario. The worst case scenario would be that I don't get them back, and have to discontinue some of my stories... which I don't want to do. Still, hope is not gone for my readers. I have many fresh ideas to write down for you, so even if worst comes to worst, and I do loose motivation for my current stories, new ones are on the way from my very twisted, yet creative mind. 8D.
Hopefully, I have eased your minds about where I've been. And don't worry, I am confident I'll be getting my stuff back :)
