Lord, where do I start?
The past month has been a trial for me. A literal Hell on Earth that I hoped I wouldn't ever experience.
But, here we are.
I won't go into the what in terms of what's going on, but I can express that it has made me physically, mentally and emotionally ill beyond measure. I can't write a single word. I can't find enjoyment in things I once used to, and it's one of the reasons I hadn't really shown up, let alone in the cbox. I made a commitment to keep this site alive when I created it, and I really wanted to express how much I appreciate my staff for putting their best feet forward in doing so. I know it's just a website, but when it comes to a project like this, that started with, literally "Hey, Red, let's make our own site!" we've literally come a long way from the beginning. It's a brainchild that, despite insurmountable issues in all four of our personal lives dealing with school, moving, marriage and other things, it's still here.
I wanted to extend a hand of thanks to the members who have stuck around, to the people who, despite the plot screeching to a halt (my fault), and major characters being inactive (aaalllllsooooo my fault), we're still kicking. Barely, but we are. It really means a lot that you're all here, and it gives me some hope and determination that I can return 100% stroger, and write with you all. I truly look forward to it.
But, right now, I literally can't. I've tried taking on side projects that required less social activity, but it didn't work. My focus has to be on the issue at hand, and I have found that distractions are not helping in the least.
I wanted to express that this site is far from dying. It's literally suffered inactivity worse than this mere months ago, and we've only just gotten started. I'll be working behind the scenes with other staff members to keep things moving as best as I can, but, unfortunately, direct involvement is going to have to wait.
As I would with you guys, all I ask is understanding. My life outside of writing and the arts calls for me to handle this with 100% of my focus, and it's taken a glorious amount of willpower just to survive this long.
I'm still alive, and I promise that won't change. Thank you guys, and please, write to your heart's content.
I still enjoy showing up and reading new posts, though in secret.
Atty out!
