=O

So, I have a blog... that I've neglected for... a while. I've also kind of neglected my writing. Lots of things have been going on in my life. It's not really an excuse for my lack of commitment to my craft, but I figured I owed everyone an explanation. Most of the people I'm close with know already, so I figured it was just common courtesy to make it public knowledge.

A few months ago, I was dumped by my girlfriend of many wonderful years. It's hard to really say I didn't see it coming, though, because we've been through some rough patches. The breakup came from left field at the time, though. So, it hit me hard.

There was lots of drama on my end with lots of moping around, feeling sorry for myself, and just recovering in general. It was harsh, but I was able to come back through it with the help of a friend. He helped me take my mind off things and through the worst parts of my depression and all.

At the time, I didn't want to jump into anything too suddenly. I decided to move back home with my parents, which was... okay. It was nothing terrible, we got along fine, but after years of living on my own it was hard to adjust back.

Fast forward a bit, and uh... now I'm living with my friend--well, boyfriend now. <3

So, hearing, "I see you're through that lesbian phase," has been fun and glare-worthy. Why can't I like both? Some people... Hmph...

Things are settling down for me, since moving TWICE is a pain in the ass. I'm able to finally sit down and write a little more than a few paragraphs at a time. My life doesn't feel quite so empty, and I'm actually happy again, so that's a plus.

With that said, I'm still adjusting to a new city, but all-together, I think I'm back on track to maybe finishing some of the open stories I started forever ago.

Angelika still has a ways to go in the Trials of a Priestess series. Rawien, Vandel, and Elisabeth have some years left at Pandora North. And do you really think Earth can stay tentacle-infested? (maybe it can... I can't give that away. Come on...!)

The point is, I love these stories, and I pour my heart and soul into them. So, please don't lose faith in me. The loose ends will be tied up in these stories, and maybe then some. And, to the few people who will read them, thanks!

Also, maybe I'll blog more? I don't know.
