Unfortunately, I've had to deal with some of my own lately. I'm afraid the release of my original series: The Divine Queendoms will be delayed indefinitely. I'm still writing but I'm currently engaged (yay!) and planning a wedding on top of everything else I've been managing lately.I'm terribly excited out posting my stories; however, my wedding comes first of course. The date's 29 May 2008 so hopefully I won't be delayed too long. I hope you'll all forgive me! |
