... and an apology to make. I realize I haven't posted any creative writing on here in a rather long time, and I'd like to say that I'm sorry about that. I've been more focused on posting what little I've written since September of 2009 on my FictionPress.Com page and have completely neglected my little creative corner here at LiveJournal. I decided to log into this account today and figured I'd post this journal just so my readers, if I have any, know I'm alive, well, sorry, and almost eighteen-years-old.

Fortunately (or unfortunately, take your pick) for you all, I've rediscovered runaway_tales, a group that inspired me then and now the second I skimmed through its flavors. (And to think, they have toppings, too!) This means that, hopefully, I'll be posting more and more often in this journal, most likely with RaTs prompts.

And on that note, I have to go walk the dogs.

P.S.: My hiccups cleared when I finished typing all this. Is it coincidence or a sign?
