Sorry, guys, I was totally incommunicado, or however that's supposed to go, for the last while. Just getting back up to speed myself.
That said, I fully intend to grab this by the scruff of its neck again once I'm done with a particularly annoying short I've had brewing. So no, that wasn't a parting cough and sputter, and this isn't dead by a longshot. I'll get right back on track and drag people, kicking and screaming if need be, along for the ride and writing.
Salut.
