AUTHOR UPDATE

Hello friends! As you MAY have noticed (hehehe!), I not only didn't come back when I promised I would, but I've been inactive. I apologize for being MIA. due to a combination of mental health, physical health, and family stuff, I've been incredibly drained, burnt out and exhausted. On top of that, having to work a 9-5 teaching job that's very mentally and emotionally demanding means that I have no energy or desire to do anything. All I want to do is come home and eat dinner, watch a little tv, shower and sleep, and the weekends are basically just me recovering and being glad I have no obligations to fulfill. Things aren't perfect, but I'm doing better now and I want to get back into writing. I have a family obligation this week but, starting Sunday May 17th, we'll be back to our regularly scheduled weekly updates. At least, we should be; I may be a little late or inconstant at first, but I'll do my best to get back into the swing of writing and continue Mari and Azreal's story! Thanks for sticking with me, and I'll see you again soon!
