Okay, this is going to be hard but I know it has to be done. I have to make clean cut decisions and take control - I'll lose too much if I don't.
As I may have already said, I'm preparing for my final school exams: the ones that will decide whether I get to go to university or have to find some other direction for my life. I want to go to uni.
So here's the tough decision: I'm stopping blogging. Not forever - I'm not just going to end it here - but until these exams are over and there's nothing more I can to about them. There's just too much temptation to take time out of my studies and write a blog post (kind of like what I'm doing now), and I really don't need things drawing me away right now. This should only last for a month or two, as my exams finish at the end of June, but until then this is goodbye.
My other projects - painful as it is - are also taking a backseat, so my WIP will be put at a snail's pace and have to wait until life gets less serious. Fanfiction will stop and plot bunnies will be locked up at double speed. I need to focus on the real world for a while.
I feel I'm at a good palce to stop right now: I have four chapters of my WIP done and dusted and several more in progress, so I don't feel like I'm just being lazy (it's not much for most people but it's a good chunk for me - I like to get it as perfect as possible before I call it finished). I may take breaks and write little bits during the next month or so, but I won't be specifically looking for time to write - I'll just do it when I really need a break from work.
So this is it for now.
See you in July
