Hello, dear readers! I know it's probably been disappointing with the lack of updates, but I feel now like this is something that happens every year. The winter/summer break is when I seem to do a lot of updating.

This winter, I'm not accepting drabble requests, but I WOULD like your imput about what I write. As well as updating my WIPs, that is. If you'd like to have your say, go to this poll at my personal LJ and let me know!

Thanks for being so awesome. ♥

10:13 am: More poems, sadly no fic
*sob* I am horrible, horrible updater. I'm so sorry, you guys. I plan to get my fics done someday, it's just going to be awhile. :/

In the meantime, I have poems! Written for my English classes this semester. Some of them are a little rusty, because I was assigned to write them in a specific meter, use certain imagery, etc. But I hope you guys like them anyway. ♥

10:09 pm: A Narnia poem & others
Hey, guys! I bring a post - finally! Though, I'm sad to say, it is not an update of either Sleeping Arrangements or What's in a Kiss. However, I wanted to give all of you an update -

The beginning of this month was the start of a new semester for me. I am a junior in college now, and it's my busiest year yet! I am taking six classes (18 credits), four of which are English classes. This means that I have been doing a lot of writing. In addition, I have written a play for my sister to direct, plus started working on a screenplay for one of my classes (for those of you who may not know, I had to write a screenplay for a class this summer, too). So I'm literally writing all the time.

And, in addition to all the classes, I have a job.

This is not to say that I have plans to give up on either fic. Exactly the opposite! I plan to go ahead with both, but particularly What's in a Kiss. It's just that it will take me awhile. Homework and RL comes before fanfiction, I'm afraid. But my muse for both projects is still cooperating fully, so this is a good thing! I will try to have an update for them soon - hopefully before the month is out! But please, continue to leave reviews if you've read the stories - every little bit of encouragement helps. ♥

But now that that's out of the way, I bring you a poem! Yes, a poem! It is about the Pevensie children, so I thought I would post. I have written poems for the fandoms before (Lost and Heroes), but this is a much lighter style than those.

Also have combined some other non-related poems after this one. Enjoy!

Title: Fallen Sister, Fallen Star
Fandom: Chronicles of Narnia
Pairing: None. Gen.
Rating: PG
Summary: A poem about the Pevensies, and the one that falls away.

( Fallen Sister, Fallen Star )

I debated about posting the rest of these, simply because they're very personal to me. I won't really go into too much detail about the background of these poems, but let's just say that they've all been very real in my life. Some of these poems are about God, which is obviously deeply personal, and the rest are about events in my life/events in the lives of people I know. Like I said, I wondered whether I should post them, but then I looked back at all the other poems I've written and most of them are deeply personal and depict events that have actually occured in my life. So, yeah. Here you go.

Rating: PG-13
Summary: He always leaves her with a kiss. This Chapter - Susan falls ill.
Previous Chapters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6-I, 6-II

06:02 pm: Sleeping Arrangements, chapter 1
Title: Sleeping Arrangements
Fandom: Chronicles of Narnia
Pairing: N/A, just general family love
Rating: PG, for Mrs. Macready's implications
Summary: Helen Pevensie visits her children after the events of LWW. She is amazed to see how they have changed, specifically in their bonds with one another.
A/N: Originally, this was slated to be a one-shot, but there's no way that's going to work. This will be seven chapters long - the first one details Mrs. Pevensie's arrival to the Professor's house, and the subsequent chapters will focus on the kid's bonds with each other.

02:27 pm: Opinions?
Hey, guys! Another announcement/etc. post from me.

I'd like to ask you for your opinions! I've been attacked mercilessly by plotbunnies for Narnia fic, and I was hoping you guys could help me decide what to write next. <333

( Choices here! )

Please comment and let me know what you think! ♥

08:55 pm: What's In a Kiss, chapter 6 - part II
Title: What's In a Kiss
Fandom: Chronicles of Narnia
Pairing: Peter/Susan, non-incestuous
Rating: PG-13
Summary: He always leaves her with a kiss. This Chapter - When Narnia celebrates an anniversary for the end of the White Witch's reign, a few of the visitors cause Susan to look at her siblings differently.
Previous Chapters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6-I
A/N: And here is the second part of chapter 6!

( Chapter Six - Good Mornings, Part II: The Proposal )

A/N: Thanks for everyone who continues to read this! This chapter was so much FUN for me to write, because there were all sorts of things I wanted to address - how Susan would deal with Ed and Lu growing up (especially if romantic parties were involved), Edmund's betrayal, just the Ed/Su relationship in general, a drunk!Peter, Peter and Susan having a talk about "the talk", and the four Pevensies sleeping in the bed. I am amazed I got it all in there.

I would like to guarantee that the other chapters will not be this long, but all I can guarantee is that they will not be this long.

Also, this story is being updated at Fanfiction.net as well, HERE. I'm aiming to get 100 reviews over there (eventually, not just with this chapter, LOL), and my 100th reviewer will get Narnia fic as a present. So, if you'd like to review over there (or here and there!) that'd be fine. :)

I took up the claim for Peter/Susan @ narnia_100 - you can check out some icons HERE.

08:48 pm: What's In a Kiss, chapter 6 - part I
Title: What's In a Kiss
Fandom: Chronicles of Narnia
Pairing: Peter/Susan, non-incestuous
Rating: PG-13
Summary: He always leaves her with a kiss. This Chapter - When Narnia celebrates an anniversary for the end of the White Witch's reign, a few of the visitors cause Susan to look at her siblings differently.
Previous Chapters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
A/N: Hi, guys! I apologize so much for the wait for this one. I rewrote it close to five times and even had it betaed. But hopefully it is worth it, because it is a long chapter. Honestly, I tried to downsize it, but it just wouldn't work that way. Therefore, this chapter must be divided into two parts - the link to the second part will be at the end of this entry. Futher author's notes will be at the end of the part as well.
