Hey folks. Just a heads up. I'm not super terrific great about sharing information on the fate of one of the least popular stories on the site, so I'm trying to be a little bit better about it.

I know a handful of people really seemed to like Being Christina Chase. And hey that's awesome. Cause I spent a lot of time writing it. I mean, it's really long. Way too long. But some people liked it except for the fact that it's not done, which it isn't. Well, it's done in my mind anyway. I still have all the notes I sketched out on day one, and you know, that's pretty much it. And it fits on one page, so in a way, it's even better than what you've read, let me tell you.

But like I said some people liked it and I've always planned on finishing it because people took the time to read it and Holly took the time to edit it, and Seph corrected a ton of errors and posted just about all the chapters and even wrote synopses and stuff.

So for those of you that have been wondering why it isn't done, the answer is pretty simple. I haven't had the time. Writing isn't particularly fun and it takes a LOT of time. Way too much time. I used to have a commute so I could easily dedicate at least an hour or two a day to writing because they were hours I couldn't use for anything else. That hasn't been true for a while so there you go. RSI has not made the job any easier.

The trick about focus is chosing what not to do, even if there's lots of things you'd like to do. Honestly writing isn't usually at the top of my list by a long shot. It's been so long since I've had the time to throw at finishing the story that people have taken matters into their own hands (which is pretty cool really).

But anyhoo, like I said, some people like the story, and the thing about focus is that if you don't focus on things, they don't get done. So I decided to use some time off around Christmas to finish the story, then promptly got the flu. It turns out when you get the flu you can't focus on anything. So even though I've burned up all my free time, I'm still focusing on getting the story done.

I'm wrapping up on the rough draft of chapter 52 tonight. It turns out for pacing reasons, I'm going to have to wrap everything up in 54 chapters, but so what? I can have 54 chapters. Sue me. It will still be a little bit before it's ready to be published. There's a process, people, but the wheels are in motion. The raw stuff will go through Holly and all concerned parties to get fixed up and after that's done, I'll start posting the final chapters weekly so I can stick a fork in this thing. And believe me, that will be that. Then you can stop thinking of Being Christina Chase as that story you liked except it was too long and not finished and start thinking of it as that story you liked except for the ending that ruined everything :D

That's it. Just a heads up. Thanks for reading. Sorry the story is so crummy. (I kid, I kid. I don't think I'm a great writer, but I think I did okay for my first story ever). So if you haven't read the story or you don't remember it, start reading it now so you're up to speed when the new ones roll out.

Seriously don't read it. It's like 900 pages if you were to print it out. That's freaking nuts. Boy meets girl, boy loses girl, explosion! You don't need 900 pages for that. Seriously.

If you're looking for something to read right now, I'd say read this. And leave a tasty comment. People like comments.
