This is a difficult thing to write. And that holds true for Devil Angel, too. I am nearly four years older than I was when I began it that fateful July day, and I have outgrown it to the extent that I am no longer able to squeeze into it. I have grown, you have grown, The Boys have grown - and you must admit it is rather silly to keep up the charade now that the Moffatts are no more and Taylor is married (to a GIRL!) and a father. A father. He is two months older than me, for Chrissakes.

I am still writing fanfiction. If you really want to, you can find me, and many have. It is not hard - I am still Aspen, and I still write slash/smut. But if you do find me, please remember that I while I have not finished DA, I have finished this chapter of my life, and am writing onwards into the sunset. I ask you not to inquire about updates to the story and to this site, because I have moved on. This is my baby, and it always will be (no matter how much it pains me), but as a writer I have given birth to new things, and they need my time and care. Please respect that and let me be with my kiddies.

Thank you very, very much to everyone who has read the story over the years and given me feedback, joined the DAE, given me some sort of love. (DA fans spoiled me truly rotten. I still get more feedback for it than I do for any of my present ventures.) Thank you to those who were sibling sites with AF, and thank you to hansonfiction.com for rescuing me off of Angelfire back in the day. DA enabled me to meet people and have some great (and also some questionable) experiences, and for that, I am forever grateful.

I am leaving the story up (as long as hf.com wants it to be there) because I know I hate it when the fics I want to read are taken down. The chapters are availible here. Am leaving the DAE operational. Am leaving my fiction email address. Am off to write smut.

Love,
