Let's make it official...

[Letho]

Even though technically I wasn't really gone from Althanas, I wasn't really around much either the last couple of months, especially when it comes to IC stuff. I mean, I look back on some of the threads I'm in and I see that months have come and gone since I posted. And that's bad. I would apologize, but apologies got old about two or three months back. So I'll rather say that I'm officially back, that I'll try to make amends with some posts this weekend and that my posting will be a lot more regular from this point on.

Have I broken through my writer's block? No, not really. I realized that no such thing ever happens. You don't wake up one morning and find that your muse has miraculously returned and that you have the drive to write again. It's not a matter of inspiration, not in my case anyways. You can have a thousand good ideas, but without the will to write it down they're of no use. It's more a matter of persistence and stubbornness, of simply deciding to write even when you know that what you're writing is crap. But if you keep at it, one day you might be back to your A game.

So here's to hope that writing with all of you again will help me get my mojo back again.

Against persistence, even death makes a pale rival.

If you leave me hanging with our Ira and Malagen storyline, I'll track you down and castrate you with fishing line. ^^ Which would be a rather unpleasant thing to do, so I'm glad that you're trying to pound the writing out of yourself.

[Karuka]

Welcome back!

[Zephyriah]

Err....welcome back? (Even though we're 50 posts deep in a battle thread).

[The Valkyrie]

*tackles* I missed you, asshole. How dare you leave me like that. Fucking jerk. Anyways, you need to start hanging out on AIM again so I can pester you. Oh and don't forget that Skyler and Rheawien have to kill the leader of the RCS still....

[Nekoprincess]

Welcome back! We should quest again at some point and time!

[Vampiric Angel]

Welcome back man, and I know what you're going through, I try to keep myself writing as well, and I know most of the time that it's crap. But I've been getting better, so I think you'll manage. ;P

[Empyrean]

You're back, you Croatian bastard! :D Woohoo.

Nice timing, too, as I am posting in O Brother tonight. You has the ESP powers. Also I speak the good grammar.

[Letho]

Thanks, everybody. Unfortunately, you'll have to suffer the rusty crappiness of my writing for a while, but that can't be helped I guess.

[Aeraul Smythe]

Welcome back, I think. Here's hoping you stick around long enough for me to run through the whole list of my 101 plans to kill you should the need arrise D:

[Skie and Avery]

When Errant Frosts and Lost in the Moment died, so did I. So you've got to write with a ghost now. Bastard. I kid. Welcome back, and you're a braver man than I for facing the music.

[AdventWings]

Feeling a little rusty, Letho?

That's just Writer's Block leaving your body. :p

Welcome back to the writing scene! Just don't strain yourself and burn out half-way through, alright? :)

[Call me J]

Against persistence, even death makes a pale rival.

Unless if you view life as a necessary condition to be persistent...

just sayin'

Stay alive Letho, and welcome back.

Once again, thank you everybody, including Aeraul and his death threat. Nothing quite says 'welcome back' like a death thread. Well, except redheads.

Also, just so everybody knows, the order in which I'm posting in the threads I'm in by no mean reflects their significance to me. They're all equally significant and the order is pretty random. So if I post in some thread after some other, it doesn't mean I care less about it.

*squeals happily and plies with... uh.... chicken noodle soup and crackers*

And here I thought it would be a bad day, with three little boys home with pneumonia and Aunt Flo coming for a painful visit.

I'll try and post today, because I probably won't be online tomorrow. They're inducing labor in my sister and I'mma be spending lots of time coddling my new nephew.

[Letho]

So, once I got back home from work yesterday, I felt somewhat sleepy, took a nap and woke up with a fever and my bones aching like they do when you're about to get a bad case of cold (why do people say "bad case of cold"? Is there a good case? :P). Long story short, I took some pills for the sickness, slept through the entire day, got up for work today, felt a bit better, but now that I got back from work, the sickish drowsiness and that cold, shivering crawl up the spine seems to be returning. So I probably won't be able to write anything worth a damn in a day a two, since these things don't last longer then a couple of days. Just a heads up.

[Empyrean]

Man, you're always getting sick with something, that sucks. Everybody's been catching something with the weather change, though.

You get yourself better now, hear? :)
