Okay, this is the first blog I've written in a while, so bear with me; this might get a little long. I decided to write this to announce that I am officially in the community spotlight. It's funny; I didn't even expect to be noticed as much as I have. I just joined this site to make a single submission and now three months later I have close to 3,000 subs, one editorship, and one of the top 500 point scores in the community.

The past two weeks have been diffcult. I had to drop two of my courses because I couldn't keep up with the work. I'm still searching for a job, and I've been too busy with school to really contribute to this site as much as I'd like.

Still, I've been keeping my queue clear, and I just added a new trusted contributor, bbqsauce13. He makes so many good subs that moderation just felt like a formality. This actually saves me time. He's one of those users who really gets it. Maybe someday he'll get the spotlight, too. I suspect that my fairly active status on the general forums is the reason for my recognition. Thanks to the staff for choosing me. It's an honor.

As for my writing on fanfiction.net, my KiGo story, The Silence, just reached 56,324 words, with 13 chapters, 44 reviews, and 3435 hits as of this posting. It's my best story yet. Check it out.

Once again, I'd like to thank the staff for choosing me to be in the spotlight. This is an amazing site and the people here are some of the best in the world. It's a true honor.
