Heya all, I just wanted to make this to notify you all that I am NOT dead, and I am still planning on working on this book. Unfortunately, there are complications in my real life that stop me from writing, such as studying for my upcoming SAT, which I believe is very important. Anyways, I figured that y'all might want an update, instead of just blatantly waiting for a new chapter. I have many new ideas, and when I was writing the earlier chapters, I was still debating how I wanted to take this story, at least in the beginning of the book. Now though, after some serious thought (and lots of walks), I think I've found a plan that works, and I'm very soon going to be starting to work through the next several chapters. Hold tight! If all goes well chapters will pick up at normal schedule in about three weeks or so.
