A Letter from the Author

Dear faithful and bored readers, I thank you for your time and humbly hope that you will accept this profile note as my letter of resignation from the fan fiction community.

In case you haven't noticed, I stopped writing several years ago when I grew up, learnt to write properly and realised that hey, I'm nearly 20, annnd...this is kinda sad.

I'll leave the fics up, please read them if you still like to, and if you enjoy, well I'm very glad. I merely ask that you do not get your hopes up expecting updates and/or new material from me. Sorry, but I'm just not writing fan fiction anymore.

(Although this does not mean to say I have stopped writing/writing fiction altogether, oh no, I'm just tired of the recent decline of the fan fiction community-or 'all sex no story' as I fondly think of it. Yes, we all love a bit of smut every now and then, but really, I can haz plot plez?!)

I would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to read and submit their thought on these pitiful dribbles from my youth (Oh how we all have secrets to hide in our old age!), and an extra special thanks go to to few good friends this site has brought me and everyone who supported me in the past on these little projects.

Perhaps, one day in the future when I have more time and ideas, I may come back to these stories. I'll either be inspired to re-write and finish them, or I'll laugh at the dire excuse for a writing style I had back then. (Please bear in mind I said the same thing three years ago and am still wiping the tears of mirth off of my face as I write this note now).

In the meantime, all that remains to be said is a fond farewell to fanfiction.net, dwelling-place of my misspent, misguided youth, and please; stop pestering me for updates.

With regards;

Leanne Austin
