    So I'm aware I've been dead quiet lately, and I felt the need to touch base. So here's a peek at the next song in the upcoming chapter without any context. My way of giving you something. Its no where near finished, but progress is being made.

    Harddive died

    Last year when I had my little vacation I noticed my laptop having signs of its approaching death, so I ordered a cheap external hard drive.

funny thing...
1. I've had this story in my read later for ~2 years now

I do that as well, sleep is the great reset button for stress in writing/editing.

I must say i really admire your dedication to your work (as you have been writing this story for over 4 years now) thank you so much for it and i will stay tuned for the next chapter :twilightsmile:

You're welcome. =3
I love writing, and I've seen FAR too many good ideas (fics) start then die by chapter 3. I wouldn't do that.
