Hello watchers.

I haven't updated in a year. You know this. I know this.

My life in the past few years has been in a downward spiral. My grandmother died in 2016. I had a psychotic break in 2015. I started college in 2014. I believe the last time I regularly posted fiction here was in 2013 going by a post I made.

I was going through my notes and I saw files from the Mondian Chronicles. I smiled as I remembered the fun I had and the sheer passion with which I wrote with back then. Poetry fulfills that passion for me now, but I want to return to it in fiction.

I want to revamp this place. Over the years, I've developed my interest in photography into a new passion. I've also gained an interest in website design. Looking at this journal makes me smile, but it also makes me cringe.

I don't know exactly what I'm going to do yet, but I want to do something. So stay tuned.

Hi! I realize I haven't updated here in a while. I've been focusing on publishing and, as a result, deemed the Mondian Chronicles unpublishable because it didn't fit neatly into any genre. But you know what? I really love writing these characters. I've been looking over my old stuff and I've been generating ideas and actually feeling excited to write? Perhaps that sounds weird, but while writing my first novel for publication I hated and loved the process. I still haven't finished the novel.

I wrote in my private journal that I wanted to focus on the vision. I want to focus on the love of the craft. I do eventually want to publish, but at the moment, it's not my foremost goal. I want to love writing again. I think that's the most important thing right now.

I'm currently outlining the Lord and the Duchess. It is the story of Elisabetta de Loarcharno and Daniyel Everart. Elisabetta has appeared in a few pieces, but Daniyel even less. There's will be a love story. Wish me luck. I hope to post it here once I finish or offer it for free download once I feel it is finished.

Hello to those of you who watch this community.

Things haven't been very active around here I know partly because I've gotten lazy both with posting and writing, but I'm slowly coming back. Besides the stories that have been posted elsewhere, I have a few stories that I just couldn't get the energy to post and a very select few that were meant to be apart of a larger project. Those might get posted, but under a lock, but I haven't decided yet.

Well that's all for now and I really hope you continue to enjoy the stories!
