Hiatus announcement
I know this is not something anyone/everyone reading this wants to see; but I have thought about it all day and after talking to online friends/other fanfic writers I have come to the conclusion that I will be taking a Hiatus from this fanfic. Sadly, I am not in the position for regular updates as I used to be. I don't really talk about my personal opinions/offline life on this site but I feel it is necessary to stretch my personal boundaries and give an explanation.
I enrolled back into community college to obtain my RN degree. Due to the fact I already have a degree in a similar field, this will not take me as long. I also currently am working as well; I just started a new job a little less than a month ago. I will be needing to spend time focusing on studies, getting enough sleep and going to work to sustain myself.
I know this must feel like a bummer reading this message, especially to those hoping for a regular update. But I feel it's best to stop for a moment now and then come back later when I have more time to write/more written. I have already stated that I have the next few chapters written and this is all true, so I feel it's best that I write on my limited free time and wait until the story is completely finished on my end ---and then I will upload and reply to comments--- rather keep you guys hanging waiting for another chapter to unfold.
I am so grateful for all of your comments and I can't believe how many kudos I have gotten from this fic as well (currently: 264) This is not my first Outsiders fanfic but it is the first time I've written for this fandom on this site and you have all been so lovely, patient and I love sharing ideas as well.
I am still active on Tumblr: @ greasybusiness. Feel free to come say hello to me over there. I plan to return in the late summer/early fall for updates. I thank you for your patience with me and I hope to become a successful Registered Nurse and help the world out more. This isn't goodbye, but a promise to return better than ever.
Stay Gold, gang
