Well, it's been a while! I would like to formally apologize for that! I went through a lot of stuff from the end of college last year, till almost through an entire semester this year. It was pretty bad, but I won't bore you with that!
Onto Noblesse, I have a lot of plans for it! First, I'm rewriting it. This may get mixed responses, I don't know. I noticed, thanks to an old review I brushed off (I'm sorry, Mugiwara Otome!) and a response I got a few months back (as we all know, I've been away for a few months!) by Your Neighborhood Stalker that I had a lot of plot holes I overlooked (some I forced myself to overlook because I didn't want to work on them, but that's foolish. I'll never make progress as a writer if I do that! Someone scold me!) and some that I worked out in my head and completely forgot I actually needed to actually inform my readers of! It's not like you all can read my mind! I often have to remind myself of that, and I would like to apologize for that! If I ever appear to have forgotten to explain something, please let me know! I'll let you all know, when informed, it something is to be explained later or if I merely forgot to mention it, I promise!
Anyhow, with the redoing of Noblesse, even though I'm still on chapter one, it's going to be very different in most instances, but I'm going to keep it, I'm hoping, with the same atmosphere. Now that I've made progress(I'm hoping) as a writer, I'm trying to make this one better. I still plan to keep this older version up for those who may want to reread a certain moment and also for nostalgic purposes; both for me and those who really liked it. I like the thought of having it permanately kept somewhere I can always find it, in case I lose my flashdrive and my laptop fails again. Did I ever inform you all that I found my missing flashdrive? It had only taken a few days, but those were some rough days. This one flashdrive has every precious story of mine on it! (And trust me, there's a whole lot that will probably never be posted online, like EVER. They're pretty bad an entirely fantasy-driven. Some have no plot and were just what I felt like writing at the moment. Others are of fandoms I know will likely not be accepted.)
I seem to keep trailing off. I'm sorry. I haven't talked about my stories in a very long time because I have no one in real life that will listen! This is the only place I CAN talk of them, so I'm incredibly sorry you all have to listen to me rant and ramble!
I'm going to try and keep updates running somewhat steadily, but that may be harder than I'm thinking, with me needing to pick up on responsibilities in real life after dropping out of college. I've spent too much time relaxed as is, and I hate being a freeloader off of my parents. I'll be starting online classes in late January, I do believe, and I'll hopefully, finally, have a job before then. If not, around then.
MAIN POINT FOLLOWS BELOW, IF YOU WISH TO SKIP ALL MY RAMBLING NONSENSE:
I'll stop rambling here and finish it up with the main point, that I will be rewriting this story but I will also be leaving this one up for nostalgic purposes. Thank you very much for your time and thank you to each and every one of you that favorited, followed, and/or reviewed! You all mean so much more to me than I have ever shown!
THIS IS A BIG, MUSHY, AWKWARD PILE OF ME THANKING YOU ALL. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
I would also like to take this time to say I HAVE read each and every single review and response to this story! Each one, even the ones pointing out my flaws, has filled me with such joy and happiness that I was never quite able to contain the widest smiles I'd ever managed! Before I actually wrote out this update, I reread each one and, let me tell you, I have not smiled this wide in a very long time. It's been a while since I've experienced this level of happiness and pride and warmth. I love you all so much more than I could ever put into words, and I really wish there was something I could do to really show my appreciation other than just being like 'Yeah, thanks guys.'
Now, I know I'm reacting better than just 'Yeah, thanks guys.' but compared to how I feel, my typing feels just like that dull, boring, unappreciative reaction! I cannot accurately portray my appreciation and adoration for such a great following in words! I wish I could just hug and meet and thank each of you in person and buy you tons of treats and shower you with so much affection that you'd get annoyed with me, but I can't! It frustrates me to no end that I never feel content just saying 'thank you' because it never adequately portrays my level of appreciation and warmth and breath-stealing delight it feels me with every single time I read a review. I feel so grateful that you have each taken the time to read my story and have loved it so dearly! I'm even more grateful that you're all willing to put up with my sporadic updates and constant apologies for taking so long! You're all so patient and undeserving of such an irritating author as myself. I'm so sorry and thank you all so much for everything you have done for me! I love you all so much, and on that note, I'm done with this before I keep rambling!
