I originally could blame FA being slow or down for my lack of updates. It was a golden time of rejoicing and wallowing in procrastination. Ahh, for those halcyon days.

Well, my first attempt at actual publishing ended in a form rejection letter. It probably bothers me a bit more than I've let on but I'm still going to trudge ahead. Other than that, I've just been in a whirlwind of normal, mundane stuff. Bills needing to be paid, things needing replaced, back pain from work making me grumpy. I'm trying to get back into the writing groove but with NaNoWriMo looming on the horizon, the need for a costume for my hubby for Halloween and any number of other little things I dunno how successful I'll be.

I'm sure you're all shocked and appalled at my lack of submissions, all two of you who actually read this. ;)

Anyways, onward and upward, as they say. I hope to soon get a tablet and attempt to make a new avatar with my incredibly crappy drawing skills. I'll be sure to make it as eye-gouging as possible.
