Okay, so obviously I haven't updated anything in awhile. Originally I'd started this project thinking it would be a fun, interesting way to improve my writing skills, and for the most part, I'd say it was. Lately, however, I've found that I'm having less and less time to accomplish the writing required to update every single day and still live a normal life, so I'm effectively putting the366.com on hiatus for the foreseeable future.
This doesn't mean that I'm going to stop writing, of course. In fact, my longterm plans include attending graduate school so that I can get an MFA in writing, and right now, I have to focus on getting accepted to the school that would be most beneficial, which means I need to churn out a sample better than anything I've ever written before. Sure this impromptu exercise of barely-planned stories was entertaining (well, for me, at least; I can't speak for you), but it isn't going to take the place of a thorough education.
So if you're reading this, chances are you've read something else on this website, and all I can say is "Thanks." I hope you've enjoyed it. I certainly have. Part of me wishes that I hadn't stopped, that I'd kept on writing even if it meant the complete alienation of my friends and whatever semblance of a life I currently have. I do feel like I've disappointed myself a bit, but I think I'll get over it.
