first of all. i absolutely loved first mate and you are such a talented writer. it is by far the best billdip story that i’ve read. i am sad to see if come to an end, but it was great while it lasted! thank you.

Absolutely love your book The Outside! You’re such a good writer! Keep it up!

Hello I like your book

Every time I see a notification about people voting on my stories, I feel so bad because I haven't updated either of them in forever.

To all those that read either of my stories:
          
             Now, don't panic.  Everything is perfectly fine and The Outside and First Mate are going to continue to be updated.  I just am not one for story parts that are solely Author's Notes, so, I'm posting here.  I know I haven't updated in two weeks plus but I will most likely not be posting for another week... even if both of the new chapters are halfway along.
             The reason?
             As of tomorrow, I'm putting my dog down at 9 AM.  I'm skipping school, putting off homework, and taking a step away from social media to go through the process of my first experience with this.  My family has euthanized a dog before but I wasn't even four-years-old at the time and didn't understand.  Now, at nearly fifteen, I know that I want to be there when she goes.
             She's a medium-sized, black pit bull rescue named Shiva Snyder.  We believe that she is eleven or twelve, seeing as she was already an adult when we got her, so, her time is at its end.  Growing in the top of her right lung is a fist-sized tumor that could be cancerous and as of the last several weeks, her ability to breathe is getting weaker and weaker.  All her breaths are labored pants and she hardly sleeps or eats.
             I'm going to miss her.  
             Truly, I'm not sure how I'll feel since I've never really done this before.  I know my dad will be somber and my mom will bawl her eyes out.  But, even if I wish that I could have more time with her, I know that she's ready.  We've given her a comfy home and loving "pack" and all that we could.  Keeping her alive will only be cruel. 
          
             So, the updates for my stories will be pushed back another week.  I know many of you will understand.  Who knows?  Maybe my pain will cause me to update quicker.  But, I'm focusing on her right now.
             I only hope my puppy makes it through the night.
