Hey, all!
I have a lot going on in my life right now, and I wanted to take a moment to share some of it with you guys.
First of all, I've kind of disappeared... Oops? Sorry about that. This last Fall, I started college at a small two-year university in Utah. As you may be aware, college is incredibly stressfull, so there hasn't been a lot of time for writing, especially writing anything that isn't an essay for one of the courses I'm taking.
As you may have seen from my announcement at the end of Harry Potter and the Time Turner Incident, I've decided to serve a mission for my church. (For those who may not know, a mission -- for my church, at least -- is when a young man (age 18 minimum) or young woman (age 19 minimum) leaves their home for two years (for men -- for women it's 18 months) and teaches people about our church and what we believe, with the goal of converting them to our church.) There are several requirements for a person to serve -- such as mental and physical health -- and in order to be considered for a mission, you have to fill out a long recommendation form and have interviews with church leaders. I've completed that stage, and I'm waiting for my call -- a packet that will arrive in the mail and tell me where I've been assigned to serve and when I'll be assigned to leave. I'll let you know when I get it. However, serving a mission will mean that I'll be off of social media of any kind for the duration of my mission. That means, there will be no new content from my account for a year and a half after I leave. But, this is the right thing for me, and I'm really excited for it.
That being said, I'm not going to stop writing. In fact, I have another story in progress right now. It's untitled, and it's a Star Wars fic, which I haven't written before. But it's in the planning stages, and I'm really excited for it.
Thank you all for sticking with me. You will never know how much I appriciate it.
xxx Emma :)
