So, as you might have noticed I have three on-going stories plus an oneshot collection at the moment. It has become kinda messy with my actually organized order of updates for my stories because my Touch of Fear feels have taken over, causing me to neglect everything else. But to assure you guys, that I haven't abandoned any of my other stories.

My priority right now is definitely Touch of Fear because I've reached the 'dramatic' part and because I'm just really "feeling" the story, so writing chapters for that one is not only easier, but also more fun. Besides, at the story's current development, slow updates would really disturb the reading flow. I want to use this period in which I'm really into the story to finish the story. If everything goes the way I want (and if life doesn't prank me with unexpected stress or illness) I will have the story finished in about two weeks. It's hard to say an exact chapter count (since I always end up dragging certain events) but I'd say there are still 4-8 chapters left. And since I had my last proper exam on Friday (there are only some tests left), I will most-likely have more time. 

After Touch of Fear is finished, I'd like to focus Flower of Despair, as that story, sadly, has never gotten my full attention. It was always my second story after ToF. As of right now, though, I haven't updated in like 12 days and as sorry as I am, I don't think I can make the updates quicker as long ToF is on-going. But I will try to squeeze at least one update in per week before ToF is completed. Once that happened, I will finish Flower of Despair, which still has about 4-6 chapters ahead. However, I don't want to rush to finish FoD because that story is a rather thoughtful one.

To all Flower of Despair readers, thank you so much for sticking with the story despite my terrible update pace! I'm grateful, therefore I really want to give you the best and not some half-assed updates. 

And while I'm finishing FoD, I will try (the emphasis is on 'try') to update Forbidden Eclipse, as it was supposed to be my next main fic, which it definitely is. But yeah, I feel bad for being so slow with FoD, so the very regular updates (which are like every day or every second) for FE have to wait a little. 

As for the oneshot collection, I said from the beginning that the Lay oneshot will be the only one as of right now. Since it's a collection, I don't feel the urge to update that one. I will add oneshots whenever I feel like it or have inspiration and time. 

But guys, don't start complaining when things turn out differently from what I wrote here (e.g. ToF isn't finished in two weeks, FoD updates will be less than FE) because goddammit, I've no influence on my future self, nor do I know what might happen to cause me to change my mind. So, don't take this as absolute plan, but more of a rough one.

So, the good news it, in less than three weeks, summer break's gonna start. And since my parents haven't planned some family holiday, I will have 6 free weeks, minus 2 weeks of meeting friends and stuff, so I will have plenty of time to update before my senior years (11th - 13th year) begin. When that happens, I'm afraid, I won't have all too much time. But I'll have to see about my schedule. 

And I still have about three stories that I definitely want to start before 2013 is over, but that all depends on how things look like in my senior years. 

I just wanted to tell you guys about this, so you kind of have an idea as to why I haven't updated the other stories in a while. 

Okay, I'm off, doing my homework (after procrastinating the whole damn weekend) and going to briefly revise politics for tomorrow's test (lol, I know I won't do that) and maybe -- reaaaaaaally maybe -- I will write a chapter for FoD (or start writing a chapter at least). 

(On a side note: Exo won for the third time! I'm still so surprised and overwhelmed. MuBank was like a huge surprise already and I never thought MuCo as well, and now even Inki. Wow. And haha, have you seen Luhan's reaction today? Soooo precious. >w<)
