Wow I'm slow

Wow I can't believe March is almost over! At any rate, I finally have my Internet back, so new chapters of Dragon's Jewel and Call My Name will go up either tonight or sometime tomorrow evening.

I think I stated this on my FF.Net profile, but I'm putting most of my stories on the back burner for the time being. Details are in the personal blog. My focus for the moment will be in finishing up The Dragon's Jewel, which only has a few more chapters left to be written, and Call My Name, which is one of my more popular stories. FP.Com's focus will be Punch Down, I'm thinking. Sarat revisions are creeping along as usual.

I received an email from a girl I've known for a while over at FP.Com about why Punch Down has taken so long to write. I've gotten quite a few emails and whatnot about it from fans despite the lack of reviews. Basically, I suck at writing romance. Seriously. I'm terrible at it. That's mostly because I'm not a big romance reader and quite frankly, romantic things in general make me feel uncomfortable. Some of that might be apparent in my DW fanfiction. Punch Down is, at its core, a romance. The humor and sarcasm dripping from Sandy's mouth is how I react to romantic nonsense in my own life, but that doesn't mean I haven't experienced it. This makes is that much harder for me to write something that is believable without being flat. I'm trying, guys. It will get done; I don't like to leave stories unfinished, especially those that are so close to my heart.

Fear not, however. If I have to call off of work for an entire week and do nothing but write the whole time, I will do it to finish Punch Down. The same goes with my other stories. Stay tuned.
