Internet, how I've missed you...

...just a bit.

It's March! Can you believe it? Probably not. I'm more stuck on the fact that I've finally got my internet back and thus have to catch up on all my reading and browsing and updating and apologizing to penpal-ish people after my unexpected disappearance (hmm, that sounds like I was abducted by aliens).

 Yup, updating.

 As in actual story updating. Keep a lookout for all sorts of updates within the next week. I'll pretty much be spamming everyone with tons of writing both on ffnet and on this blog whenever I can. Obviously most of you are probably only bothered about AtO's chapter 13. Don't worry- it's ready to be uploaded, but I'm going to wait a bit before putting it online. You might think I'm being evil by not uploading it immediately, but well I have my paranoid reasons and I suppose I like the idea of being considered evil.

Chapter 13 was and actually still is a monster chapter- has to be I suppose, given that AtO was updated ages ago. I actually cut out so many scenes (more than 2000 words) from it, changed things around so many times and moved bits into another word doc for future chapters, but it's still huge. But even with that, I think it's one of the most emotion-packed chapters I've written.

 I guess I shouldn't talk about chapter 13 so much until I actually post in online.

So guess what was the first thing I did when i got the internet back? I caught up with the Naruto manga just before writing this post. And omg-osh why are the Uchiha hogging the spotlight again? I swear I don't read it for a while and suddenly they've take taken over. Even though I like Itachi, I want to read about Naruto, damn it.

And for today/this weekend, I'm going to read a few of my favourite fic updates (looks like I have so many reviews to write, my email inbox is filled with alerts) and probably do an unimportant update on ffnet.

P.S. I never got a chance to explain changing the domain name for this blog before I went away from the internet. Honestly, it was just a whim on my part. I never really had a proper reason for wanting to change the main address. Hmm, this not having a proper reason for doing things seems to be a pattern for me.
