Alright, I figured now would be as good a time as any to tell you what's going on.
Some of you may have noticed that there was a period of time that i didn't go on deviantart, then started sparodically going on after a while, and didn't submit tomboy 12 like I said I would.

Let me explain.

After I submitted that last journal, I milled around for a couple days, and then, out of nowhere, inspiration struck me like a bolt of lightning. It came without reason or method, like any good inspiration does, and i started writing like mad. And I mean really, like mad. I was on a roll when my brother came back downstairs and decided to harass me like he does a lot. So he picks up my FUCKING DIPLOMA off the shelf and THROWS it at me. My diploma is a leather-bound glass case, so it's pretty heavy, and I ducked out of the way and it missed. I yelled at him for being stupid and told him to leave me alone. He said he would and picked up my diploma. As he was walking back, he quickly turned around and threw it at me AGAIN, only this time it was wildly inaccurate and it hit my laptop right in the back. The image on my screen instantly fizzled into a blank white face with grimy black cracks snaking out from the corner and confused green and purple shapes leaking out of them. My LCD was broken. (Don't worry, he paid for it).

So, the main problem with this was that it interrupted my writing, and the chapter was saved on my laptop, not my parent's PC. So I was stuck. I had to ship it off to Dell and have them repair it while I waited. For a week. I just got it back two days ago and the first thing I did (besides go through my overgrown heap of messages and devwatches) was go right back to writing. Except when I opened the document, I came face to face with my old arch-nemesis, that horrible, taunting blinky vertical line on word, and it informed me with its own awful glee that i had lost my inspiration, and I couldn't write.

So, here I am again at square one, writing it piece by piece, trying to finish it eventually. I'm really tempted to just rush the chapter out the door just to be done with it, but at the same time I don't want to do that and sacrifice quality.

So blame my stupid brother. And Killzone 2. God damn it for being so cool.
