Hello. This is not a story update, I'm sorry.

I have better news however. Skip to bold if you don't want to read the reasoning for my absence.

I'm back. :)

I'm so sorry for disappearing for so long. It's been two years I believe.

Urgh, I feel so terrible after saying that.

I'll be very frank. If you have read chapter 'Little Notebooks and Lullabies', you'll know that I get depressed.

I have social anxiety, general anxiety and depression. I have very bad self-confidence problems as well.

These past two years have really shown me a lot about myself and now I feel better about coming back.

I am not any better then I was when first starting this story, but I am better at controlling my emotions and how they affect me.

I am more confident in my writing then I've ever been. This is mostly because one of my best friends, and editor, from her continued to support and encouragement towards my writing. I cannot thank her enough.

That doesn't mean however that I get depressed and hate it all at times, though, 'cause I still do.

I'm getting better. I can say my writing skills are a little more improved as well.

I wanted to thank everyone who has supported this story and continues to do so and even those that have supported it while I've been gone. Even the people who have favorites/followed it in my absence.

It makes me happy. It makes me feel better about what I do.

The news I'm here to tell you is that I am rewriting this story.

Yes, I'm starting over :3

I'm editing it mostly, but changing key parts and overall making it better (in my eyes). I've forgotten my original plot, but I'm sure that what I have will be just about the same as before. Just slightly different.

Thank you for your patience, and if you want to read this story it is called "Kage no Kioku". Just go to my stories and you'll find it :)

I'll be leaving this story here in case people want to compare or just have nostalgia by reading this old version.

Again, thank you. I don't ever plan on leaving my stories behind or unfinished which is why I came back. I feel bad for making you all wait for so long as well.

If any of you read "Dear L" too, I plan on redoing that story as well. Except I'll be waiting to publish it until I finish all it's chapters.

Thank you,
