Sorry for jumping around with the Status. I forgot that you cannot read reviews or see them... if the story is marked in-process.. or any other status other than complete. So.. oopsies. :P It is on hold, as I am still dealing with the real life things and... I still have The Best Year to write on. Other than that, we'll see if my motivation to continue this story survives afterwards.

I am up way too late for my liking, but when I get to writing, I like to finish the part that I am on. Just that, this part was bigger than I anticipated.

Part 2 is written though. But with Parts 1 and 2 of the Epic-log of TBY also written and needing my attention, I don't know when this will be ready to be posted. Maybe in between Part 1 of TBY and Part 2 of TBY. I don't know. Or I can wait and just finish Learned to Lie completely, before I start posting anything from it. I guess, this is just me telling you that I am working on it, if at least a little bit. :P

If I counted right, I'm 99k words into this story. Not going to lie, the last two parts have been a strain on me to work through. I want too much for a story I never intended on being much at all. I wanted a length similar to Elias and Ridley, but now I'm approaching AYC levels of commitment. I didn't want to do that, but if it goes it goes, I guess.
