Oh my freaking Voldemort. Mother of pearl. I am such a poop, aren't I? A year ago, yes A YEAR ago, I updated. A year ago. It's been a YEAR, since I have updated. This is absolute fuckery on my part. Huhhhhh. Shit.

Now, all of you, grab your pitchforks. Please, formulate an angry mob against me. Chase me into hiding. (preferably, somewhere near schmexy very sexy Jace Wayland :P)

No but seriously, I haven't updated in a year, which is very very bad, considering that the thing that I updated a year ago was an author's note that has long since been deleted. I am terrible. I am lazy. I am a liar, say what you will, humor yourselves, because I did not update, and that is unacceptable on my part. I am sorry.

Now, let's get onto serious business. I start school in two weeks. Once I start school, I will try to update best I can. I will think, and write, and think, and formulate, and type, and plan, and write, and read, and write. And hopefully, I will pull together a bunch of updates.

Now, I know that since it's been so long since I have updated, any of you who have read the story probably don't even remember that it exists, and if you do remember that it exists, you don't really remember what was happening. I regret that some people, if they are willing enough, will probably have to re-read the story to refresh their memories, if they should be so enthusiastic as to continue reading my fic a whole year later. Once again, I am sorry.

As to all the newcomers to the fic who have just now started reading it, welcome to Bloody Battles! Hopefully I will update soon again and you will never have to witness my horrible-ness of not updating. Huzzah!

Anyway, I have just re-read my fic with older eyes, and am finding it pretty mediocre. I mean the plot and all my plot ideas were awesome, just the quality of my writing itself wasn't to great. Grammar, descriptions, flow... all that shiz. And there were a few insignificant plot holes. I will try to fix up the small, small plot holes/things that were too unlikely. Also, the OOCness of Ginny in that last chapter made me cringe. hmm... I guess what I'm trying to say is that I am almost three years older now than when I first started this fic, and as a result, my writing has improved. Hopefully this will reflect in later chapters. :)

Oh, and also, I haven't really been on fanfic in like, a whole year. I prob logged on like twice in the past year. :( (I was busy... very very busy...) So I don't really know this 'generation' of fanfic. Idk if things on this site have changed since I used to go on regularly/how the fandoms have changed... so bear with me! 3

Whoooo. Okay. Got all the above shit off my chest. Yayyyyyyyyyy! I hope you will all put down your pitchforks and hault the attack upon me sometime soon... but not just. yet. Wait until I update, I can't be let off the hook for my fuckery TOO easily, lol. So, now that I made y'all sit through this obnoxiously long and shitty author's notes... (of course, some of you were prob too lazy to read the whole thing. Don't worry, I'm the same way :))

I love you all, thank you all for reading my story/ reading this ridic AN lol. I will update soon, and I hope you all enjoy my fic! 3
