So I wanted to post this for those of you who (like me) just want to know what's happening, and why my updates aren't what they used to be.

If you've been with me for some time, I'm sure you remember when I first started Crazies. I was posting a new chapter almost weekly from December to about April.

Well, in April I decided to end my six year long relationship with my boyfriend. Truthfully, the relationship was dead by this point so it wasn't one of those break-ups that pushed me into any kind of depression or murderous rage.

But being with someone for that long, then suddenly not having them around any more, is life changing. I had to rework my life around so I can now exclude this person that was supposed to be there until the end.

Though, of course, since it's me it couldn't be as easy as a simple reset because we have a son together. So even though I wanted to just wash my hands with him, I had to play nice with my ex for the well-being of my son.

Which then begins the full year of consent stress and my motivation killer.

I won't go into the very LONG list of crap my ex put me through, but it seemed like every month was something new to stress about. Every time I thought I could finally relax and work on one of my stories... BAM... Another problem to deal with.

Some of you might have gotten a comment from me through those time. I would say that an update would be up for you soon, only for it to be weeks before something came out.

It sucked to know I let y'all down, but at the same time I just had nothing in me to produce something I could be proud to post.

Things started to change about February of this year. Once again I won't go into detail, but it started to become unhealthy and unsafe for my ex to be around my son. So I put my foot down and told him to change things or leave completely.

He left.

Finally, I was able to do that life reset I needed to put myself back on track and move forward again.

That month and on into March, I took a break from everything with my son and visited my friend up in Virginia. During that time, my friend gave me a way out completely.

To move in with her.

I took that shit was both hands and ran with it, cause I needed something new to push me out of the loop of doing nothing I was in. So, once I was back home, I was already putting things in order to move by the end of May.

By this point my motivation for writing was still nonexistent, but I was finally getting new ideas which hadn't happened in months.

The more my life began to settle the more I was writing or creating new ideas. No, I wasn't posting a lot but after not being able to write for almost a year, it felt nice.

Now fast forward to now.

Because of some new developments and new stresses I'm actually moving back home to Georgia (day after tomorrow actually). To... not really start over... but contiune in a better environment that will help me keep moving down the path I want to be on.

I don't know if it will effect my writing again, but for right now I feel proud of myself with what I'm getting done.

I just finished chapter 29 for Crazies and chapter 4 to The Whispering. Not sure if Surviving Evil will get done on time for update day but I pushing myself to try.

I want to thank every one of y'all for sticking with me.

I've received amazing comments that told me that they love my stories. That they hope I'm okay and getting my mojo back soon cause they can't wait to read more.

Y'all are beautiful and the reason I push myself to keep writing when I have those sucky feels to quit.

Thank you.
