Holy crap things have been hectic lately. I got back to school and was literally swamped. I'm really sorry everyone for just disappearing off the face of the earth for a short stay. Guess I should fill you guys in...
Basically I've been having to step up my game on my studies due to parental concerns I would lose scholarships and well, right now is finals week.
I've also been trying to keep Shellie from falling back into her bad habits of working on her 'secret' project for about a week or so now. She's gotten jumpy about it again whenever I ask her questions. My thoughts still go back to that 'tall man' image that Claire caught a glimpse of some time ago, which Shellie won't elaborate on. What she did tell me it was the project was something she's been working on for a while now that she'll share when it's finished and that's all I've been able to gather.
Once these damn finals are over I think I'll do some research over winter break to see if I can find what she might be referencing in her story. Maybe that will help me understand her obsession with the project better. I was planning on working some on my book over break but we'll see how much time research takes me. Who knows, you guys might get a story out of me still, but at the moment consider my short story collection on hiatus.
