Heart of the Matter

by haleyb333

Charlie Herondale doesn't have an easy life being an ill, runeless Shadowhunter, but she likes to think that she's adapted quite nicely. She's fallen into a nice, easy, all too comfortable routine. Her life is so routine that she often wishes for more adventure. It's only when her life begins changing that she finally realizes just how comfortable she was.

3. Author's Note

Hi all! So I am very, very sorry that I have to update in this way, but I think it's something that needs to be clarified!

I have not abandoned my writing, this story or the others that I'm currently working on. I barely have time for my homework at the moment, so writing is not a priority in any way, shape, or form. I know that sucks, and I miss it more than I can describe, but my school and my personal life come way before my writing. I know a lot of you might get angry or upset over that, but I started writing for me and me alone, so unfortunately, I can't cater to everyone else when it would make me unable to do the things I truly need to do.

I'd be glad to tell you all about my schedule if for some reason you think I'm exaggerating. Basically, I am a full-time student working a part-time job working a part-time research position working part-time at church. So lately, my downtime has been when I'm asleep. Unfortunately, this means that I'm doing something school or work related from the moment I get up to the moment I go to bed, so I am hard-pressed to find any downtime at all to write in.

I am going to try to write this weekend, but I make no promises on that as I will be on duty for my job all weekend.

I am truly sorry that I have been gone for so long, and I hope to be back soon, but my updates will be very, very few and far between at the moment.

Thanks so much for understanding, I love you all!
