Oh, Gawd

Well TTb is finally started and I'm having a lot of fun writing it.

How, then, did I get roped into writing not one, but two request fics in addition to SafireCharmz' giftfic?

Well I agreed to the first request because the chic is such a great and faithful reviewer. A one time exception type thing, you know? But then this other chick said she read Mirrors and wanted a sequel with Naruto and Gaara doing a lemon. I was all prepared to say sorry, no. I even told her in my reply that I was really busy. But the idea stuck and wouldn't let go so before I even finished typing the reply I told her that I'd do it.

Then SafireCharmz got back to me with her pairing for her giftfic and it's like wtf? Why am I so busy when I had all intentions of working on only one fic at a time?

Well it's my own fault for accepting, I guess. I should learn to say no.

On a positive note, I am enjoying the stories themselves, so there's that. I've also acquired a beta. I have to say that so far I've given her 3 chapters to edit and she hasn't gotten back to me yet. I would have had the chaps done and uploaded by now, so I feel like using a beta slows the whole process down. I guess we'll see how it goes. It's just I'm tempted to edit myself as I always do and just submit the chaps but I'll wait till the weekend when my beta said she'd be free.

I've finally gotten some fanart done. It's of Itachi's kids. I'm going to put it on the Bonded blog. There's more artwork coming, should be completed in a couple of weeks. I'm so excited!

Adios!
