It was nice reading this update, I am in the job searching business myself, I have worked in the same job for...8 years and its time for some changes! I wish you luck with yours and that pic of your campus does look really pretty!
Best character from A:tLA, by far (though total agreement Iroh is so awesome)
Wretched Aura: As a Wretched One Evalin possesses an unnatural aura about her that causes unease in those who get too close. It can come as a prickle of the hair on the back of the neck, a sense of 'wrongness' about her. How people experience it is different depending on their personality and how they handle the unnatural and unknown. Animals tend to become more agitated, more easily sensing how wrong Evalin is and often avoiding contact with her.
No, I'm not dead. Just super busy. I'm actually writing this as I head home from the lake with my family.
I'm about to move to college so I can't promise when activity will pick up. Please bear with me. I love my thread partners and cherish our threads I just have a case of "Real Life" at the moment.
Hey, guys... I'm afraid I come to you with bad news...
As you all know, I have been absent physically or mentally for quite some time, now...
It is time for me to retire.
I've left too many thread partners hanging on for too long.
I haven't done nearly anything as a Grader.
...I've lost my muse for Edreina.
I don't know if it's stress as I face a scary new life or if I'm just too busy to feel any kind of creativity.
Either way, I've been pussy-footing around this for months. Despite the threads I've been so damn eager to write, I'll just sit here and stare at a blank box for hours. I can't seem to make anything flow for Edreina.
I don't know if this is permanent, but I'll treat it as such, for now.
I may just take a break from her, put her on a shelf out of my reach until I crave writing her once again; I may leave her on that shelf like Woody when his arm was torn.
It hurts my heart so incredibly much to admit this, but it must be done. I regret every thread I'm leaving unfinished and every character I never got to write with.
This is jsut what I need, for now. Forgive my selfishness...
I have another character itching at my brain... If I make her, it'll be on a much smaller scale with a thread limit so I don't burn myself out, again. I'll keep you all updated, I promise.
I love each of you so terribly much even though I've never met any of you.
Thank you for every smile and every challenge,
Cheslyn
