Okay, I feel that I should pass this news out to those that are interested
in my works.

The Tales of Shampoo, Vol 3:
The fic is going along smoothly, though I have been working on it on and
off.  Pre-readers will be getting a taste of it this coming week, with a
teaser to be released to the list shortly thereafter.

Rayearth: Caught Between Worlds, Part 3:
The fic that refuses to die.  Originally, I'd intended Part 1 to be a
one-shot, then out of nowhere, Part 2 reared its ugly head.  Part 3 is in
planning, and will start to make less sense in this ersatz Rayearth fic.

Goddess?!?! Oh My....  Part 3:
It's in the planning stages, and I'm making sure I'm stocked up on Enya CDs
to pull it off, too.  ^_^

Evangelion - The Bond Part 3:
Well, I gave it my best shot, but I couldn't do it.  Despite public demand,
I can't finish it, simply because I can't get the rhythm with the characters
down pat.  The feel of it doesn't seem to mesh well for me, and I feel it
would be a disservice to my readers to continue a project that I really
can't get into.

So until further notice,  I'm ending my writing of Evangelion: The Bond, and
this time I mean it.  Really.  Truly.  Sorry to all of those that were
looking forward to seeing part 3, but it's just not working out.

If anyone wants to continue this, by all means contact me, and I'll be more
than happy to give out what I have on it, as well as the beginning of the
side story, cast of characters (larger than one would expect) and where I
was going with ETB.

It's a great idea, but I couldn't do it.  Again, gomen ne.

(is it just me, or am I in stuck in the 3s department?)

Sailor Moon AX (Chap 11 and Epilogue)
Since I'm now the sole primary writer for this series, Chapter 11 and the
Epilogue are in planning stages, pending a few sidestories being written,
and work on more character profiles.  Additionally, I am also considering
moving to a volume release of the fic, vice the current part sched.

Digital River:
Project is underway, but awaiting the prereader's response for Chapter One.
^_^  The plan is to release this as a one-shot story, so don't expect to see
anything else on it for a while.

Saltarello:
Cancelled.  Great FY idea, but there's too much symmetry betwen this
project, Digital River and L'Chevalier Du Mal Fet to be able to deal with
it.

L'Chevalier Du Mal Fet:
Yes, I know I probably misspelled the French.  Oopsie. Anyone who wants to
correct me, by all means be my guest.  Working on this one, and so far, I'm
liking what I'm writing.  It's an Utena fic, though I'm not sure if I'm
going to release it in Parts or Volume yet.  If I do release in Parts, be
warned: this fic has MASSIVE SPOILERS.  As in, you'd better be knowledgable
with the end of the series.  I mean the absolute end, not the point where
Software Sculptors called a halt currently.  ^_^
