Just want to let everyone know I’m still alive and well and working hard! I do not believe I will move this story anywhere else as of right now. I will keep the idea of a singular webpage in mind, somewhat like BashfulScribe, but I will stay here for now. Just want to give a big thank you to the site team for working hard to get it back up and running and I promise that as soon as it is ready again, I will post everything I have. Hope everyone is well!

If I had the know-how, I would love to make my own website for my stories. Unfortunately, I do not. In addition, I enjoy this site for allowing access to multiple viewers and I feel like I would cutting out many if I moved completely, even if I made a post on here. Should it be required, I will find another option, but I want to allow the site to fix itself. I’m still working! Finished another chapter a few days ago and am moving onto the next one so ideally I’ll be able to make the wait worth it

Hey everyone! First of all, I’m back safe adn sound! I notice that there seem to be some changes to the website and looking through it, I can understand why. As I understand it, there is not the ability to upload anything right now so I shall hold onto what I have but i promise to upload the six chapters I have written since I left as soon as I can. Missed you all!

Sorry for the long wait everyone! Work has been kicking my butt recently but I have the newest chapter up and ready to go! Unfortunately, this will be the last chapter I will be able to post for a little while as they are sending me out again. Never fear, though! I will be working on new chapters while I am out to sea and they will be up when I return! It should not be as long as last time so here’s hoping! I hope you all take care of yourselves and enjoy the chapter and find new things to read and enjoy until I come back! I know I say it every time but I am thankful beyond words for all of you. You give me the drive and passion to go on and continue this story that has now been going for *checks calendar* over eight years! All because of you. So thank you for that. I love you all and will see you soon! Joe

Hey everyone! Well, I’m back from sea and I’ll tell you what, nothing like having your feet back on solid ground I appreciate your patience and hopefully four brand new chapters help to make up for the time away This is a shorter message right now as I’ve got quite a bit to take care of after so long away but I shall be working hard to continue the story. I hope you all enjoy in the meantime. Hope you had wonderful holidays and that you’re healthy and safe!

Hey everyone! So, I know it’s been a while and I apologize for that, but Chapter 160 is finally up! Unfortunately, it’s that time of the career again and this will be the last chapter that I will be posting for a while. However! There is good news in this, as this will be the LAST time that I go out to sea! Once I’m back, I’m back for good. Should not have to worry about any more long delays, barring vacations and life. But yes, this will be the last chapter posted until I return, though I promise to be working hard while I’m out to bring you more! I’ll miss you all and shall be back as soon as I can. Take care, have a wonderful Thanksgiving, a very happy holidays, and a wonderful new year!

And Chapter 159 is up! Hope everyone is having a good first of Halloween season and that you all enjoy!

All right, Chapter 158 is up! Sorry about the confusion earlier and I wish I had been able to put it out instead of the previous announcement, but all is well and I hope you all enjoy reading

Update again! Got the issue fixed so all is well Sorry about the previous post. Hope you're all doing well!

Hey everyone! So, attempting to log into my profile has given me information that the old account was not registered. I contacted technical support to try and get this information retrieved. If anyone has any further information on this, it would be greatly appreciated. Don’t want to have to completely recreate and repost everything if possible!

Chapter 156 is up! Sorry about the wait everyone! Big week this week – moving and getting married – but I hope the wait is worth it and I shall continue working as soon as everything has settled down!

Hey everyone! Chapter 156 is up! Hope you all enjoy! Sorry about the wait but been working hard and making sure I have time to write as I can. Thank you all so much for the congratulations and I shall see you all again as soon as I can!

Chapter 155 is posted! So sorry about the wait, everyone, but lots of stuff has been happening and it’s all been good hope all is well with all of you and I will continue working as soon as I take a short breather!

Hey everyone! So, just letting you all know that the next chapter might take just a little bit longer. Finally got the chance to go on vacation to see my family, so taking some time for that. Oh, also, I just got engaged! Wedding will still be a while off yet but been having a good few days so just wanted to keep you all informed on where the story is and that I’m working hard to keep it going so you're not waiting too long!

@wetwilly17I apologize for taking so long to respond to you! I just now checked the forum again and saw your comment about the old ‘Reality Checks’. I admit, I do miss them a bit. What I found, though, was that when Jack moved into college, so much of it was based off of real people and real things that I did that to do a Reality Check would require a post on here almost as long as the chapter! It would almost be easier to do an UnReality Check for the things that didn’t happen. For example, I didn’t break up with my girlfriend because of an accident, the accident I was in didn’t happen between my sophomore year and junior year, and I’ve switched around the order of plays that I auditioned for/was in. Perhaps I will bring them back again when Jack is out of college and I can perhaps get him into a situation where I am only tangentially living through him, rather than funneling so much of my life into it. But thank you so much for mentioning them. It’s nice to know that they are not completely forgotten
