I hate when people do this but it's been nearly two years since I last posted anything and I still get emails that someone has favorited one of my stories so I think you all deserve an update. None of my stories have been abandoned nor will they ever will be, I promise you that. I started them all with the intention of finishing them and I'm going to. Unfortunately things haven't gone as well as I had hoped.

Ever since late 2016 I've been struggling financially and over the past year and a half I've been working 72-84 hours a week just to make ends meet, leaving me with very little free time. I'm so stressed that I don't sleep well and the other night I thought I was having a heart attack, or maybe I just hoped I was. Between that and having basically no friends outside of work I find myself yet again battling depression and a desire for my life to end, making it difficult for me to concentrate. On the rare occasion that I find myself both with some spare time and the ability to focus I usually tend to work on my original stories as opposed to my fanfiction. I don't like much about myself and there's not much about me that I'm proud of but I'm a damn good writer and I'm very proud of that. I truly believe that I can be a published author one day and I'm bound and determined to make that happen.

I realize that I've gotten off point a little so to sum everything up, yes I'm surprisingly still alive and no my stories haven't been abandoned. Once things calm down for me and I have the time I will return to regular updates for these stories and until then I hope that you all continue to enjoy them and I promise I'll try to update more than once every couple of years.
