Well... okay... new forums. I'm sure I'll get used to them, but they're a little weird for now.
Unfortunately, now that the forums have reopened, I don't exactly have something fun to post.
I'm going to be unable to post the next chapter of the rainbowcy for a long time. Since it (as well as the next chapter, and part of the one after that) has already been written, I was hoping to post it before the summer came to an end. I'm not going to be able to do that. I leave for college on friday, and my week is going to be super super busy. My laptop isn't here yet, and probably won't be until mid-late september, which means there's a possibility I will be unable to access the forums at all until then (unless I go home for a weekend, which I probably will be too busy to do).
Even after I get my laptop, I'm still not sure if I'm going to load sims 3 onto it. If I don't, I'll only be able to update the rainbowcy over holidays. If I do, I probably still won't update more than once a month, because I don't foresee myself having a lot of free time. And part of me figures my laptop would run the game slower than my desktop... so... yeah.
That being said, I'm not cancelling the rainbowcy. I fully intend to--at the very least--finish Phlox's generation. After that... I have no idea. I like to plan ahead, but I'm standing at the precipice of a huge change and I can't predict what it will be like for me going forward. One option I have been considering is continuing to write the story without having pictures for every chapter (or maybe just fewer). I know that wouldn't be very much fun, but I'm attached to these characters and this community, and I don't want to just leave. I don't know really know what to do, and I hate not knowing what to do. But one thing I'm sure of is that the forums are important to me and this story is important to me and my readers are important to me.
I wanted to let you guys know the situation. I hope there are still people out there reading this (and if you are there, I'd appreciate it if you would respond and let me know)
I've been staring at the post button for, like, ever. I guess I should just post it. But it feels so final. I promise, it's not! This is not the end of Shattered Light!
