So, this is coming later than I had wanted...more than a year late in fact.  Realistically, I could have (and probably should have) said something about what was happening to make me disappear for all of that time back then, but there were far more pressing issues at the time and in the end I kind of just let it go.  I won't go into everything that happened: those that know me on Skype or elsewhere should already know (And if I didn't mention anything, feel free to ask.  You're in my contacts for a reason, and I'm sorry I didn't say anything.) and mentioning any of that this late seems kind of redundant and wholly defeats the purpose of this post.

The purpose of this is twofold actually.  First off, I do want to apologize for the lack of activity here.  I had a list of things to do last year and every intention to complete the list, as I recall I was writing up things and ideas on vacation, and I just up and left without saying anything.  I still intend to finish that list of words, all ninety-nine of the remaining ones, and more besides in time.  I just haven't really had to drive to write or do anything here until I made that small update, and I've been trying to figure out what exactly to say or do to come back here properly.

In truth, I don't know what to say or do.  I don't currently have anything to post, though I am working on a small writing thing and some background stuff for others, but it will be done hopefully by the end of this month for those interested.  Right now though, I'm busy getting my priorities straight: reviewing Trignometry and Calculus, trying to memorize formulas in other things and doing a lot of reading.  So, I may not have a great de3al of time to write or do much else, at least not as much as I like.  I'm also kind of giving up on the idea of monthly updates in journals: my life is fairly unremarkable and that isn't going to change.

In short: I am sorry it took so long to get back around to this, but there are things coming, and as I get reacquainted with things I will post updates and new things.  So, that's it.  Thanks for reading.

Well, I'm late.  More than a month late, but I think I've now got a good handle on this class.  It's been a bit more writing than I expected, but that happens fairly frequently anyway and I've been busy with other things as well.  Which is why I haven't posted any writings here, though I probably should have posted a journal earlier.  I have been working on writing related stuff, however, and while all of it is background stuff it does help to give me a better idea as to the shape of my world.

So, I'm not sure what my schedule is going to look like for next month: still trying to run a D&D game, and I'm going to be away for a bit as well.  I will try to get something done and posted before then though, I'm just not sure what it's going to be yet.  That's it, just a quick update to let people know that I am still around and I haven't forgotten, just gotten distracted for a bit.  Have fun, and live well everyone!

So, the semester is over.  I took my last exam today, and I am happy to report mostly good grades all around.  Still waiting on finals to come back, but I actually feel like I accomplished things in the past few months.  That said, I am taking a summer course and I'm not sure about the pacing so the schedule isn't going to change.

On the note of the schedule though, I managed to stick to it last month so if you haven't checked out that thing that i wrote, then I would appreciate it if you were to read it.  It's also part of a story arc for that character, so it will be continued as soon as I have the time to write the next chapter, and I'll be starting the beginning of that characters story alongside it.  Those will still be secondary goals though: I'm still trying to get myself back into a routine of sorts, so I'll mostly be writing from the hundred words list.  One word each month and if I have time I'll do more.  Just figured I would restate that here.

Nothing else is going on outside of that: Still alive, still writing, and still trying to do stuff outside of here.  I'll be posting stuff later this month, and I will respond to any comments I get in the meantime.  As always, have a good time everyone!

  Honestly, I didn't.  A few assignments came up came up a bit sooner than I thought, and some other things came up outside of classes.  Most of which are under control now.

  Aside from that, I'm not up to much, still trying to find a good start for this story: I know what I want to write, just trying to make sure it doesn't end up sounding kind of cheesy.  It will be posted before the end of this month, though, and I'm setting a deadline of two weeks from today, which I believe would be the 24th, where it will be posted.  For those of you that want to keep track of what I'm writing, the thing I posted earlier last month is the list of prompts I've been using. 

  And that's it.  Have a good day everyone, and thanks for sticking around!

So, I'm not really sure where to begin: I've been gone for a year with no posts, updates or anything of note going back further than that.  And I'm really not sure what to say to those that were watching me back then, and may still be doing so now...so, I'll begin by saying this: I'm sorry to all of those that may have been watching my page over the past several months.  I know this is probably not going to be the case since I never posted much to begin with, but I figure that it can't hurt to say it.  Regarding my reasons for being inactive for such a long time: I've been busy doing other things.  That's really all there is to it.  Had a job that was taking up a somewhat disproportionate amount of my time, trying to go to school and figure out a solid plan for the next few years, and just not having any ideas for writing or the motivation to act on them.  So, yeah.

That said, things have changed in the past couple of months.  I'm still going to college full-time with plans to graduate with two bachelor degrees before the end of 2017, a decision which has left me currently unemployed.  I'm currently trying to set up something resembling a schedule to do Twitch streams with the eventual hope of getting a subscription button someday, and I'm also trying to get back into writing and maybe learn how to draw things that actually resemble living creatures and environments.  While this means that I'm still busy, I'm a bit more organized than I was last year, and I feel like I have a bit more breathing room to do fun stuff.

But, why am I saying this here on a virtually dead account?  I'm not willing to give up on this just yet.  I have some ideas that are a bit more fleshed out, and I'm more willing to put myself out of my comfort zone these days.  Frankly, I've been trying to live under a rock for most of the past year, and I realized recently that this may not be the best tactic for growing as a person or writer/scientist.  So, I guess you can consider this a reboot of this account.  In the next few days or weeks, I'll be cutting down a lot of the build-up in mail, organizing my page, and moving all of my current submissions to scraps.  This goes beyond that though, since I realize that I wasn't at all active before I left, which is something that I feel I need to resolve if I'm going to come back here at all.  So I'm going to try to be around more often, specifically at least once a week I'll be around to comment on stuff and take a look around.  I'll also be doing a journal here at least once a month at the start just to update on things, and I'm going to aim for at least one thing written and posted per month.  This one I can't completely guarantee since this semester involves a lot of writing, and since I'll likely be taking on more work over the next year or so, but it is something that I will try to keep up with.  To help, I'm going to be doing the 100-word-challenge when I don't otherwise have ideas.  It isn't a perfect solution, but I need something to keep me moving forward with writing until I can build some momentum.

That's about all I've got for now, and I am once again sorry about the large span of inactivity.  If you have any questions or comment, then please click the button below and let me know.  Thanks for reading!
