Dear flist, (on RL and there being, alas, only 24h in a day)

Let there be no doubt: I'm very much enjoying your feedback and the various discussions we've been having, both here and on your own LJs! So if I'm taking longer than usual to reply to your comments and posts, please don't think I'm ignoring you: it has nothing to do with you and everything with RL. I'm hoping to catch up tomorrow and early next week!

Thinking about it, I might just as well make this a general note. Much as I'd love to have time to write fic and reply to any comment within a few hours of it being posted and give feedback on all your fics and posts, it's starting to become difficult to keep that up - at least, if I don't want to end up a total zombie from sleep deprivation, which would not make for very coherent posts anyway. ;) Work is one reason, as is the fact that husband and I are on the hunt for a house to buy; both of these are good things, but they also wreak total havoc on my spare time, and that's not going to change anytime soon. So please bear with me if you see my reaction time slowing down - I'm still replying to every comment, and I'm still writing fic, and I'm still reading your journals, albeit at a speed that might be less than athletic at times. *g* And please know that this works both ways, and I'm perfectly fine with having to wait a bit for a reply from any one of you.
