soooo here's the thing....this story is a pretty close representation of my life, my feelings at least, which lend to the realness of the story so many of you enjoy. I am going through some personal things right now in my relationship having to do with a lot of the things Sybil goes through in this story and for the moment, the writing of this story is beginning to trigger me. Especially with what is occurring in the plot of the story. I set out to write a therapeutic, cathartic expulsion of my own traumas but it is hitting way too close at the moment. I need to take a little bit of time and get my own issues under control before I can continue with Tom and Sybil's journey. Its my own fault really. I never sat down and planned the direction of this story, I just let it naturally flow which felt good for a really long time. but I need some space from it for a little while. I need to heal a little bit before I can heal this story. I don't know if I was too honest in my writing and I am having a difficult time moving forward or if I cant write Sybil moving forward without doing it myself. Either way, I am going to take a little time away from it. I considered just glossing over the next two months in the timeline but that's not really fair to you readers, so instead I'm going to take a breather and come back to it. I hope I haven't disappointed or angered anyone but I will tell you I have something else in the works....something pretty amazing and exciting. so hopefully I can satiate you in the meantime.
I also want to take this time to thank everyone who has been so incredibly supportive both by reviewing and by communicating with me on here, every single word exchanged is like a balm to my soul and I cherish every single interaction. you are all beautiful people. thank you.
