Whiney

I think one reason I haven't been posting much is that my posts lately have tended to take on a whining tone. Poor, pitiful me. Yeah, I may have had a rough patch lately, but overall I've had a pretty damn good life, and even now there are lots of people who are a hell of a lot worse off. It disturbs me to hear myself being so whiney. It doesn't fit my self image.

So, while I want to keep my readers informed if there are reasons why they're not getting new material, I want to keep it simple and straightforward.

And by the way, who the hell decided that we should go straight from autumn to spring this year?

Mea Culpa

My apologies for having been silent for so long. I've often thought about posting, but I guess I've been embarrassed about not being able to report progress on my story. And I truly don't want to leave the story at its current point.

After my last post, I spent some more time in and out of the hospital. I was pretty weak for a time and, truthfully, will probably never be as energetic as I was previously. At least the doctors tell me that I shouldn't be in any specific danger for the foreseeable future. Although I suppose I'm at as much risk as anyone else to be run over by some idiot drunk driver.

So ... I suppose the news is, I'm still here, but don't have any positive news at this time about when you can expect further updates. The proper mood for writing has, shall we say, been a bit lacking. I just hope I manage to get the next chapter out before the one year anniversary of the previous chapter. Damn, but it feels shitty to think of it that way. But still ... I hope I can.
