Why my updates are slow...

I was asked by a few readers why my updates have been slow lately. Honestly, I've just been so busy! I'm in the process of elections for student government. I have a husband who just returned home from Iraq last month. I didn't see him for six months.

I'm a full time college student. I have tests and papers and quizzes and homework. I'm trying to keep my GPA up. I also have friends that I like to hang out with whenever I get a chance, and I've been working out a bit lately.

So, that's why my updates are slow. Honestly, I don't think waiting for a few weeks for an update is too bad... some authors go months without updating. Life just gets in the way sometimes. I try to write as much as I can, and I appreciate everyone who reads my work, whether they review or not. It's just I'm not always able to update every week, even though I do try. If I'm not in the mood to write, then I don't. I made the mistake a few years ago of writing all the time, even when I didn't want to, just to get a chapter done. I ended up feeling like it was a chore, so I stopped writing until last year. I'd rather enjoy writing than give it up because I'm tired of it.
