Reasons...

I know I said that chapter 36 was on its way, and that might have felt as if I was going to update on Sunday (06). Well, chapter 36 is still on its way, and I have no idea of when I’m going to finish and post it. Most of you probably don’t care about reasons (to tell the truth, I don’t even know if this post will be read by anyone other than myself), but I do feel the need to justify my lapse and lateness. The thing is, I’ve been having ideas for years now, and those are not the writing kind, but rather the sewing kind. Those have been dorment on me for a while, but it all changed when I found an incredible blog, Bridges on the Body, where the blogger recreates classic corsets (and I have to say, they are just wonderful!). So, this brought back my own ideas of corset making. And, as anyone who read Forgotten Paradise had noticed, I have a great love/interest/addiction for corsets (probably not as great as Cait’s, for I only own one, self-made, that could be better). Back to the point, I’m having a big case of ‘I need to make a corset’ at the moment, and already have (almost) all I need to get one together (what I’m lacking here is steel boning, or simply spiral boning and busk, but those are really hard to get in my city and ordering from the internet would take too long of a time, and I’m quite eager here).
Anyway, what I really had to say is: as soon as my corset-making fever passes, I’ll be able to concentrate on the story and not get sidetracked like this again. Well, at least not until I have another fever like this.
P.S.: wish me luck, the only boning I can find in this corset-goddess-forsaken city is that plastic cheap thing that doesn’t really hold a thing (that’s why my first attempt could be better).

Another self-reminder

Just forget everything else and write!
Lately I've been too worried with what others think. So now I'm reminding myself that I just have to write and finish this story the best way I can. And this means that I don't have to please everyone with the end, 'cause I won't please everyone no matter what.
Chapter 36 on its way!
