When you first started writing in the QAF fandom, you had everything to choose from as subject matter. The more you wrote and got such rave reviews, you held yourself to a higher standard and started getting more involved and busy in writing, icons, etc. and it just makes sense that it would take longer to produce a chapter than at first. Don't worry about it. You're worth waiting for.

P.S. Love your icon. And you'll never guess what I got in the mail on Friday: a golden gardenia! I hope I don't kill it!
