I want to apologize to anyone who has been expecting me to come back with updates and being even generally active. Life is tough sometimes, but to give a recap, I have had a job or two and lost both, layed off one and quit the other. I have found myself a wonderful person, and now she is my fiancé. Her mother recently passed away last month and one of my dogs passed away last week. My fiancé and I have been going steady for a couple years, though! Albeit all the trouble we have been having. I look forward to being able to get back to it. Though Im not sure how often Ill be able to update, I want to work on my chapters more, take more time with them, make them longer and more detailed. Also, a lot has been and probably will keep happening in my life for now, so i'll definitely need some time to get back in the swing of things. Wish me luck! Thank you to all of you that are still active and stayed with me, whether on purpose or not!

@Blightfantasy Hey, thanks for wondering, I actually want to finish Living in Ruins first, which I am working on currently, I plan on getting that book done and then will work on Realm while I try to get LiR published. Sorry if that disappoints you, but working on 3 (and more stories in the background) is difficult to do while going to college, plus it gets my mindset off kilter when working on multiple stories and it ends up becoming a mess.

Hey all, I just wanted to let everyone know that I have started a Patreon account and project, if you wish to check it out: https://www.patreon.com/pyroxius?ty=h 
          
          BTW, I am not doing it per project (per story) it is for all of my stories. I wish to use some of the money to do the following:
          Pay rent and put food on the table of course (but I will try to get a job for that)
          Make rewards such as the keychains, t shirts, hoodies/pullovers, and a paperback/hardback novel (signed by this  author if you like my stories, you should kinda like that :p) When the work itself is finished, meaning you'd have to wait for me to finish the story chosen, sorry.
          
          Also, announcement! My internet will apparently be turned off for the summer unless I can pay for it, which sucks cuz its $80 DX (PER Month!!!)! So that means no updates over the summer D: , then to add onto that, I need to get a fulltime job (or equivalent since I would be paid minimum wage, which in oregon is $9.25 per hour, full time jobs are usually 40+hours per week I think , so over a 3 month period I would be bringing in about $2960 including income tax, but not including gas I would spend, which for my vehicle is 14 miles per gallon, and I live way away from a city which would be my best bet for a job.... yeah, quite troublesome...) So I am going to see if the local library would hire me and let me work on my stories when business is slow, so wish me luck!
          
          Sorry for rambling on, if you have ANY questions (and I mean anything, I will answer, if I dont like the question I will state it...)
          
          Please have an EXCELLENT day! And if you wish to share my stories, myself, and/or my patreon, please feel free! Also, please feel free to read and enjoy my stories (enjoyment isn't guaranteed,  read at your own risk :3)

I have made my decision, I am going to finish Living in Ruins on here and then I will attempt to publish it. Those of you who buy it to buy it, thank you muchly, those of you who suggest the story, also thank you muchly, and last but not least, my readers thank you so much, you all are what push me to continue writing, I couldn't thank you enough. You provided me with the encouragement I need(ed) in order to push on even in my bleaker moments. and for that, thank you, you all rock!

Hello everyone, I want to thank each and every one of you for bearing with me and my lack of updates. I hope you understand that it's because I am in full time college classes and have a part time job I'm working. I do hope that you all will keep sticking with me even as I end my stories one by one.
          
          I want to finish Living in Ruins first and see if I can get it published, then I want to try either finishing blast radius or The Young Thief ( which I plan on making a series) or keep doing what I am doing. Please tell me what you think.
          
          BTW if you find in spelling or grammatical errors in my stories, please PLEASE take the time and make a comment to tell me! I honestly write whatever comes to mind at first, no outline, no rough draft, all I do is come onto this and spew the final draft all over the page until my mind goes empty. which is another reason for lack of updates... gosh I hate writer's block...
          
          Sorry for the short essay, I hope you all have a great day! Like always please feel free to comment, pm me, share and vote on my stories! All feedback helps and is greatly appreciated!!!

Actually, it may be a smarter idea for me to do one story at a time, updating it daily or weekly until I have it finished and work on the next. Or maybe I should keep up what I'm doing and even add 2 more stories that I plan on working on eventually. What do you all think? I am doing this for you guys and gals after all! :)

dude are you going to continue your young thief story. im interested in seeing where it goes.

WOOT! I recently hit 100 votes! Thank you to everyone who made this achievement possible! :D

ack, I got badly sick through January and part of February. Happened to catch pnuemonia and was sleeping all the time :/ now I'm back to working and online classes, I'll try to get some chapters up until march when I am then going to stop my full time job and take classes at the school. meaning possibly more time for stories and hopefully back to the 1 chapter a day idea. apologies for the rant! 
          Please have a good day and much luck! ^_^

Btw college finals are coming up, updating is going to be extremely difficult :(
