Is Ozzallos dead?

Bit of a weird question but I've been watching one of his stories on ff.net for a few years now and it just hasn't updated.

Googling "Ozzallos" found that someone using that handle posted here at the end of March. Might not be the same person though.

Hrm, from what I remember, he was most active on FanFictionFederation.

His last post there was on July 2, 2014.

I last saw him back in November. I wouldn't worry too much though, he tends to have long periods where real life keeps him busy.

Having a kid will do that. Just ask Innortal.

Pretty sure he Ozz mentioned it in one of his FFNet Author page updates, or in a thread at Fanfiction Federation.

And didn't Innortal mention he was expecting, last year?

Hmmm... most recent of the stories of his I've read was updated 1/2014... but admittedly I actually do not follow everything he makes.

It may be a mix of burnout, real life, and the fact the fandom he writes for is/has been dying/dead...

The burnout pattern fits has he had a great surge of story output mid 2013, little bits around 11/2013, one story extension 1/2014, and almost nothing after that I am aware of.

Ozzallos *has* done a disappearing act for years at a time at least one other time before though, so it is hard to say that he is dead without a lot of other evidence.

I *do* remember something along the lines of him expecting a kid.

A pity if he disappears, he had several stories I really have always wanted to see continued. Those included 'Not a Clue', 'The Bad Cut', 'A Time Apart', 'Hell is a Martial Artist', and 'Causality'.

Hopefully, this will not be determined to be another case like Brain Randall aka Durandall...

In a hurry, but figured would mention that we now have proof that Ozzallos is alive... he updated CrapSpace on FanFiction.NET today.
