Believe it or not, work on Seventh Ring has actually been happening, but I've hit a bit of a wall regarding a piece of the story that is really the tip of a rather large plot point iceberg. D: It's really important that I nail down this concept in its entirety before I finish writing the next chapter, as what happens within it and in the future of the story depends on this piece. And unfortunately, it deals with a lot of things I'm not familiar with -- like military, politics, and even government.

I have some artistic liberties since the story takes place in the future, which means I can make things up and you guys will just smile and nod when you read it, lol. It's not important to me that every single piece makes sense and is logical, as I told myself from the beginning that I wouldn't take this story TOO seriously. I love it, it's my baby, but if I try and "logic it to death," I'll truly kill it and lose interest. I'm treading very carefully now while I work this all out.

Just a heads up in case you guys were wondering what the HELL is going on, haha. I'm trying to work things out as quickly as I can while researching the feasibility of some of my ideas. D: It's been a process, but I'm working through it.

In the mean time, I may type up a few (short) back stories for some of the cast and include some illustrations to go with them. Just little things I've been thinking about that wouldn't be covered in the story itself, so they're sort of like "bonus material" to get to know the characters and the world they live in a bit better. :3c
