First of all, I'm super sorry for being so MIA around here lately. It's been a rough few months, but I miss all of you and I'm hoping to be more active again!
Second of all, I have a small favor to ask of you all. I've been participating in a writing contest here on LJ, called LJ Idol (

I really, really, really would love to make the Top 10, so if any of you have a second and could vote for me, I would be forever grateful. (The voting is super tight at the moment!) It closes tonight (Friday) at 9p Eastern.
If you have more time and want to read the entries (they are linked in the poll), there is some really good stuff this week! It's also just a super great and really supportive community for writers. I joined up last minute and I never even thought about promoting it (oops), but once this round is over, there will be a mini-round for kids and then there will be another one for everyone in the fall, if that is something any of you are interested in. I like it because it makes me write every day.
But I will stop rambling now. Thank you all in advance! <333
