Apologies for the delay in SECRETS
Sunday, 07 July 2013 13:25:48

Okay, let's try this again. I did just write this but it disappeared, so if it doubles up, sorry! I was just apologising for the slow progress of SECRETS. I lost my Mum a few weeks ago and while writing is my therapy I also have to work, sell a house, clear out a load of stuff, and find somewhere to live. I will try and get a chapter or two out during the summer, but realistically, as I'm also still writing by Castle hiatus story, it's more likely to be September before I can get back to SECRETS properly.

Thoughts in the Black

It's interesting I went from thinking, as a kid, that Star Wars was the end all be all of my fandom, to being a general fan of gaming for a great many years, though not overly fanatical, until Firefly came along and awakened my inner geek...the hardcore one. The one that ensures that everyone I know understands (even if they don't appreciate) my love of all things Firefly. I've always loved good stories, westerns, and sci-fi. Firefly was the harmonic convergence of all three of these. While I always enjoyed other Joss products, Firefly was the one that resonated. It still does. It has become a [b][i]life changing event[/b][/i] for me. It started me on a hobby, which then started me on a business venture, and has now pushed me to change my life entirely by going back to school (recently got my Associate's in Graphic Design...moving on to Bachelor's now!) and hunting down, dare I say it, a real job! In that vein, sad to say that the Space Bazaar is all but empty these days, thanks to F*X lawyers...but damn, what a run. Over 8 years I smuggled goods to Browncoats around the world. That's a mighty fine feeling. And it was only possible due to the support of my fellow Browncoats who supported me. Heck, even picked me up when I couldn't crawl another step. I sometimes ponder where my life would be now, without Firefly, without Browncoats...and I can only figure I'd still be wandering the Black of existence not knowing what I was meant to do. You kept me flyin'. Now it hasn't all been fun and games *WARNING! SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION!*(though you can still download those for free!
