Default Whatever Happened To?

Whatever happened to all the people who were writing stories for us to read?

I lost interest in writing do to RL issues, but I still enjoy it from time to time, and I do miss reading other peoples work.

I too have been sucked into a thing called RL. I barely have time to do the needed things anymore. But rest assured, when I find time again I will continue with my story.

I know how that goes. To be honest, I am just tired of games in general. Right now all I want to do is is finish up the games I am in and take a while away from all my games, SEIV included, and focus on RL things.

Good luck to all.

I know the feeling. I'm playing in two PBW games right now, which by themselves are no threat to my RL experience. Trouble is that in this part of the country there are things called 'snow' and 'sub-zero temperatures' that tend to curb my outdoor activities. Does reading count as RL?

Hmm, there's snow and sub-zero temperatures here too. Right now the wind-chill is about -45 C and the temperature is about -30 C. But that's nothing! No, tonight its supposed to be -42 with a wind-chill of -57 C. Now that is cold!

Well I now know one place that Taz isn't going to visit in the winter...

Ummm, maybe you can answer a question:

Under such conditions when making, ahhh, YELLOW SNOW - can it actually freeze on the way down???

Well, we aren't stupid enough to expose those parts of our anatomy to the cold! But even if you did, no it wouldn't quite freeze on the way down. But almost And it's warmer now! This morning only -33 C !!

Funny you should bring this up (stories, not yellow snow). I have recently begun work on Othaglot & Cane again after a 7-month hibernation period. Expect (well, hope for) a fresh chapter in the next few weeks, following a minor but important re-working of the latest two.
Soon we will be meeting Erik the Shed, paying a visit to the Sergetti quarter, maybe popping into Mossy Mallasses' Druk-Zuzz Jazz joint and perhaps even finally learning what's actually going on in this sorry excuse for a detective story. I know I'm dying to find out=-)

As an excuse for the delay in writing I can only offer up RL and admit that some of my writing time has been sucked away by other story projects that I'm won't be sharing with the forum at large. Yet.

I think it is a horrid 60 F or so out right now... ah, sub-temperate climate bands. I haven't even seen snow in a couple of years.
