So... I'm re-writing chapter nine of PIT.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate it. I've just been doing a lot of contemplating lately and I just don't think it fits the story. Applying what I've learned from my writing class, it has a bad case of telling without showing. It reads like an essay on Edna's character rather than having her develop it through action. Speaking of which, the whole thing is anticlimactic. What I was trying to do was have a moment where Edna and Lilli just sit and talk about their problems after all the crap they went through... but I realize now that that isn't interesting. When one thinks 'Edna and Harvey' the last thing they wanna see is a therapy session! Heck, the characters themselves have been trying to avoid it in the games.

I think what happened was that I had writer's block for so long that I just wanted to finally get it out and make everyone happy. But honestly, after reading the Edna and Harvey comic book and getting a lot of inspiration from it, I want to tell the story that I'm satisfied with. I apologize to you guys who are still interested in this, who actually liked the chapter, and are waiting for part 10. That chapter is actually in the final stages of being complete, but like I said I'd like to re-visit number 9 and see if I can make it better.

Don't worry, I'm not going to keep you all waiting for another year just to see the end.

Tomorrow will not change.

You will not be taken away from your lover. You will not be deported from your home. When you wake up, there will be no Reich waiting at your door. You’re going to live.

It’s okay to cry. It’s okay to be scared. But always remember one thing: you are alive.

So fight. Fight for your right to live, because you deserve it.

I feel I've been forcing myself to write even when I don't feel creatively motivated. There are days where I want to write other stories, but I always end up deciding to do them once Putting It Together is done rather than taking time to let my inspiration flow for the moment. By making absolutely sure I get a chapter done once a month, I'm stifling my creative energy.

What I'm hoping is that you guys wont mind if I take some time now and then to work on other fanfiction when I feel motivated to work on them. My Edna and Harvey story is in the middle of probably the most important scene, and I think it would be better if I wrote it when I really felt the emotion behind it, which at the moment I don't. I appreciate you guys for your patience and I promise I'll keep working on it, I just might need a little more time than usual.

Please contact if you can. Give her your love and any encouragement you can. Please, please help her and let her know that she is worth living.

Soooo, this came out of nowhere. Right now my computer is being checked for some audio issues I've been dealing with. What I didn't realize is that Geek Squad's schedule means that my computers gonna be gone for a few days. Yeah.

I'll try to keep in touch over my phone. Sorry for the inconvenience, guys.

_{Also I can't change my mood emoticon so just ignore it.}
