(New info at the bottom!)
Wren started looking out the window, only to see the expanse of space. She sighed and sat in her chair instead. You'd never know it but she actually missed the winter. She hated in the cold and wind and the ice. But she just missed the changes of the season. When everything's quiet and still, the moon shining on the snow so brightly it looks like another dawn. And if anyone asked, she'd deny it all but she missed the gentle presence of the snow falling, how it muffled everything as it fell.
A little part of her wondered if it still snowed on Earth. If anyone was there to watch it fall and think how beautiful it was. Would they still make snow angels, snowmen? Or would they be freezing for lack of supplies? Of the totally disarray of what was left after they were taken. Would she be able to find Earth to take them back to it?
This train of thought brought her even further down into her melancholy mood. The edges of depression starting to creepy closer. She needed to kick herself out of this and do something other than think of the possibility that they'd never find Earth, that they'd be destroyed by the aliens come for them…
And think of the fact that the damned author hasn't updated in freaking forever! Sorry guys. I've been trying to find a good job, pay my bills and what not. That included getting a transcribing job that eats at my time but is actually paying for me to buy food and keep the apartment lit and heated.
I've hit a rough patch with writing as well. Nothing seems to be coming up and that goes with my drawing as well. Sorry guys. I just feel bad for leaving you hanging like this. Hell, I was supposed to do the Month of the writing for November and that didn't happen at all because of crap that's been happening. Not only is Wren depressed. I am too, though I'll vehemently deny it in person. All smiles and what-not.
I thought I'd give you guys an update since someone is obviously hanging around. It's not that I don't appreciate everything, I'm just…. Kinda…. Yeah…. I love you guys! Just hold on a while longer. I've got a week of transcribing left for this bought and I'll see about typing up something that I've had written down for a while because what's up top obviously isn't part of the chapter. Just so you know. It's better than that! Trust me.
So, you guys get to know that I do have a chapter written. It's not typed up yet but I will have a new chap up before, hopefully, next weekend. My new job starts next week and I'm going to be bombed with stress over it. Now, to go type up what little I have for you guys! You people better be stoked about this!
