To my friends and cowriters:<br/><br/>Well, I've had to do some hard thinking over the last week. I'm dealing with a great deal of family stuff, plus some issues of my own, and I find myself mostly uninterested or enervated when it comes to writing, and in need of cutting back.<br/><br/>It seems to make the most sense to do this first in places where I haven't interacted with others very much, and so won't really disrupt stories too badly.<br/><br/>So I'm afraid I need to step away from this one.  I wish you all the best of luck and lots of fun with it!<br/><br/>*leaves hugs and chocolate*
