Hi all

It's been a while since I popped in here. I'm glad I did as I missed some messages from people from ages back. My profound apologies for the delay in replying to those.

This is a quick update to let you know what's happening in my world.

Late last year I found out that I was terribly low in iron and probably had been for ages. It robbed me of all energy and made me susceptible to every bug and virus that came my way. I stacked on weight and felt absolutely terrible. I would come home from work and go to sleep immediately then have to get up again to make dinner for the kids and do my school prep. Writing took a back seat.

Once I was diagnosed and started supplements I began to improve. Now I'm coping better with my job and with life in general. Stress doesn't bother me anywhere near as much. I've lost 13 kg and will continue to strive for my goal weight while getting fitter with exercise. All this means that I have time and energy to write again. I'm about halfway through my first novel, Teach Me and enjoying the ride so much. I wish I could give you a goal date for publishing, but I don't want to create stress and make promises I can't keep. If you are interested in seeing snippets from the book and following what's happening, please let me know so I can pass on my pen name and all sites where you can find me.

I've been asked where people can find my earlier stories and can tell you that I plan to remove most AU stories from my Dreamwidth with the exception of You Wish. Djini belongs here. Some AU stories, including much of the Angel series, Dommers and Bells, Icicle and Five Wishes have already been reworked and are available to read for free on my blog. (DM for the link) I'm working to edit all non-AU stories so they are visible to friends here. Bear with me while I sort through this. I'm removing the Master List until I have sorted through everything. Sorry if this makes works difficult to find. To the best of my knowledge, they all transferred safely from LJ but just need the privacy settings adjusted.

For anyone looking for Latte, it's being converted to an mm romance novel for publication. Unfortunately, it's third in the list of priorities, but I love the plot and characters so much, I want to do their story justice.

I'm unlikely to produce any further fan-fiction as I feel that I've fallen from the fandom for various reasons. I still love the band and the music but don't have the passion I used to.

I truly appreciate the support that was shown to me here. It helped me to develop as a writer, a goal I've had since I was a teenager, and gave me so many new friends. I hope to make writing my full-time career and need to spread my wings for that to happen. I hope you choose to fly with me.

Much love

T xxx
