Hi AFF,

Yes, I'm still alive.  I've been inactive for a few months now due to a death in the family that occured at the end of last year.  Unfortunately, my life hasn't gotten much better as I had yet another death in the family to deal with just two weeks ago.  Yes, I'm surviving, but no, I haven't progressed much in my writing.

It's not every day that I'm rocked by two deaths in such a short period of time.  In fact, the last time I had even something remotely close to this was ten years ago when my first grandparent passed away.  It's not easy but I'm dealing with it with as positive an attitude as I can muster at this point.  I dearly miss the AFF community and my stories.

The good news is, I can feel some inspiration coming back.  It is in part to burying myself inside the workd of KPOP and Kdramas to ease the hurt of what's happened so far.  I'm dealing with the second one much better than I did the first death (both were of natural causes) so that's good news.  I hope I can come back soon as I have already wasted so much time not writing the stories I love.  

Thanks for your patience again while I wade through life.  I hope your years have gone far better than mine thus far.

Poko
