Dear Readers,

First of all, I need to offer a very formal appology for not updating or giving any reason why Cullen's Most Precious Gem was not updated in... (looks at date) a very long time.

However, I would like to ask you guys to please grant me a reprieve and read this so that you understand why this has happened.

I was in school, riding buses, no car, working as a temp on 3rd shift... yeah, you get the picture. I had very little time for ANYTHING. Then I finally had a full time job take me on! YAAY!

No... no... BOOO

I've been working all hours for the last year +. Meaning, I would work some 1st shifts (7am at the earliest) and some 2nd shifts (no later than 11pm) and sometimes be back on at 7am. (getting the picture?)

In this time, I lost my love for writing entirely. I stopped working on my own series I hope to get published and took a hiatus from school.

Good news is that I have a new position with better hours, am now back in school, and I've been reinspired! However, when reading through this latest story (by far one of my better stories) I can't say I'm too... thrilled with it. It seems abit rushed to me. In my haste to meet the requirements for a good mafia fic, I lost sight of the story.

SO I'M SCRAPPING IT! (Well, not all of it. I'm keeping some details)

NO I'M NOT GETTING RID OF CMPG! So don't go blasting my reivew box or my PM box.

I'm simply rewriting it. That's one of the joys of FanFiction!

The first chapter will be up by the end of today.

Comment on this message if you want, or don't. But for those of you who have taken the time to read this, thankyou. I hope you enjoy the new and improved CMPG.

DONT HOLD ME TO ANY TIMELINE! (The writing gods have been good to me in letting me rest, so let's honor them by honoring their gift they've given us, shall we?)

*Rubs hands and gets pepsi and volcano tacos*

See you soon guys!
