  It's not that long. Actually once I made it bigger, it was easier to follow.

  Actually Idesto and SpottedFawn were having trouble keeping up with all of the family members, so I thought I'd clear things up a bit.  I'm glad it made it easier for you to follow.

  At the risk of sounding like a hypocrite, three months is too long to wait! How's that chapter coming, man?

  I know, I'm sorry! DX It's actually been two months but It's not going as well as I would have hoped. I have written only 5 pages after deleting 3 pages' worth of first and second drafts. I suppose a writer should never use the excuse 'there's not enough musical inspiration in the world to get me through this particularly tedious scene', but there you go. I really do apologise, and I'm deeply, deeply sorry.

  Have you read the sort-of-not-really-a-flashback on my profile page in the meantime?

  Thank you, Lissette. That actually encouraged me more than you likely intended.

  Time must feel slower when you're anticipating something. I'll get right onto that sort-of-flashback, had no idea it existed!

  I'ts actually super cool what she does in her profile page. I've read them all, I think. Gives significant insight into the characters.

  Since it has now been three months without any sign of chapter three's emergence, I believe I owe you an update on how things are going.

  The truth is that I have written only 4,000 words in all the time that has passed. Many of you can write that amount in a single day. Many of you have written 50,000 words in a single month. I have absolutely no idea how you do it. XD You are amazing. Between work/school and everything else you have going in life, you must have enough inspiration to cripple the mind of a lesser man. My mind is a slow runner and it snags on every word.

  As soon as Fallout 4 came out, I was glued to the TV screen playing it almost non-stop. That game is almost as good as Skyrim! But on the 3rd of December, my family and I went over the sea and far away to the vast realm of Australia. We are out for most of the daylight hours and when we return home, I have to do schoolwork. In every spare moment I do my best to continue writing chapter three. (My best being pretty awful, but still.)

  In other news, I have changed the flashbacks on my profile to links to Google Docs. Do you think it's better than it was before, or should I change it back? I don't even know if Google Docs works for everyone. Tell me what you think!
