PART 5 OF INTO THE N109 ZONE IS FINISHED AND POSTED!
          
          I want to thank you all for going on this journey with me. This ended up being a little novella, and I really enjoyed writing it and getting into the world and the characters. 
          
          I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do! I would love to know your thoughts and takeaways. 
          
          I'm not sure what my next project on here will be. I have books I am working on that I hope to either traditionally or self-publish in the future. I might do a few little spin-offs of them here, and it's possible I might do more fan-fiction. (I do have a Frozen idea I have been toying with for years.)
          
          What are your thoughts?

Hi Everyone!
          
          I am back from my Hiatus! Thank you for waiting for me. I was able to get through the end of the school year and also attend my writing conference that I was preparing for. 
          
          I am diligently working on the final part of Into the N109 Zone and hope to post it either today or tomorrow before I leave on vacation. If I can't get it done before I leave, I will post it as soon as I return. 
          
          I will make another announcement once I have posted the final installment!

Hello All!
          
          I decided to upload my ghazal poem that was influenced by Love and Deepspace. I thought it would be something fun for you all to enjoy, especially as you wait for the final part to Into the N109 Zone.
          
          Into the N109 Zone may also take a bit longer than I had anticipated. I have a writing conference coming up, and it is a goal of mine to finish a story I am working on before this conference. 
          
          I am so close!
          
          This story is one I have been working on for nearly seven years. It is big! I hope one day to even get it published. I have a few chapters left to write, so I need to focus all of my extra time and attention there, so Into the N109 Zone will be temporarily on hiatus until then. 
          
          But never fear! As soon as I am done with my story, I will resume posting. I will also try to give everyone updates on how the book is going and when I will return to Into the N109 Zone. :) 
          
          Wish me luck!!

Part 4 to Into the N109 Zone is finally up!
          Thanks for your patience with this one. This chapter took a bit longer to get out because it is a tad longer than the others, but it also took longer because I had a few personal matters come up this past month. February was not kind to me! I am looking forward to finding ways to get more sun--literally and figuratively.
          Remember to be kind to yourselves and to reach out when you need help! Life can be hard and scary, and it's okay to need to rely on others and to cry when you need to. Those are lessons I have learned these past few weeks. Take care, stay safe, and enjoy some good hot chocolate and/or tea and some good reading. <3

So...I wrote a little Ghazal poem earlier inspired by my Creative Writing class and about LADS. It is not perfect and does not follow perfect form (I messed with the rhyme scheme), but I do think it is fun. 
          It is all from Sylus' perspective about Miss Hunter and makes a lot of fun allusions to some myths and lore and the game. 
          My question for you is would you like to see it? And if so, shall I post it separately or at the end of one of the Parts (chapters?) for Into the N109 Zone story?

Part 3 for Into the N109 Zone has been posted! <3
          
          I will continue working with this with Part 4 and will hopefully get that published soon. 
          
          When I first started this, I only had Part 1 and most of Part 2 done, so the updates with these next sections are all new writing. I again thank you for your patience with me as this is a side project. However, it is one I definitely want to see through as it has been so fun to write!
          
          I had to take a bit more creative license with this newest part as there is not a ton known about The Nest and those who run it. I tried to keep some of it vague in case new information ever does come out. 
          
          I also had a lot of fun with the boys and sneaking in snippets of their lore. 
          
          I would love to know what you think about where the story is headed so far!

A new part to Into the N109 Zone is coming soon!

So I just learned that I had a few publication issues where not everything (or anything) written was showing up for my readers. 
          
          This is now fixed! 
          
          Again, thank you all for your patience. <3
          
          And Part 3 is in the works. :D Let's see what crazy plan these boys concoct to get into the N109 Zone...

Part 2 is FINALLY posted!!!
          
          Thank you all so much for bearing with the long wait! I had quite a few life events happen that have left me reeling and with little time to work on any of my pet projects. 
          
          In this section, Zayne, Xavier, and Rafayel meet! I had a lot of fun trying to write in their different voices and personalities and figure out how they would work together. I had a lot of fun writing this section, despite the challenges with it, and hope you have as much fun reading it.
          
          Of course, their adventure is only just beginning...
          
          I honestly can't say when Part 3 will be up at this point with all that is going on, but I will continue to post this story as often as possible. And hopefully you will continue to enjoy their journey together as much as I am. 
          
          Again, thank you for your patience! <3

Part 2 for Into the N109 Zone will be late this week! Sorry to those who are waiting! It is the end of the quarter for me, which means I have little to no time for extracurricular fun.  I want to  properly edit the piece before I post it, so I will hopefully be able to get it up sometime next week when things start to slow down.
          
          Aside from my first (posted) fan-fic, how interested would you all be in short stories?
