Today it was announced, that the colourful cheerfulness in person, Dirk Bach, aged 51, has left us.
May you, in whichever world you are now, cheer that one up likewise. :)
Dirk Bach *23.4.1961 †1.10.2012
Another End of an Era
Press Statement
In recent times it has become increasingly obvious that the direction and the needs of the band were in conflict, and this has led to a division from which we cannot recover.
Nightwish has no intention of cancelling any upcoming shows, and as a result we have decided to bring in a substitute vocalist starting in Seattle 1.10.2012. Her name is Floor Jansen from The Netherlands (ex-After Forever, ReVamp), and she has graciously stepped in to help us complete the Imaginaerum world tour.
We are all strongly committed to this journey, this vehicle of spirit, and we are sure that this will lead to a brighter future for everyone.
We forever remain excited about the adventures to come, and we are extremely proud of the two beautiful albums and the wonderful shows we shared together.

Absence and new FanFic
01.10.2012, Unknown Time (:P)
You might wonder what I've done during the last - huh? 2 months?
Well, it's been the 2nd half of holidays.
So natrually, 2 years later, I started writing on my 2nd FanFiction. Not Legend of Zelda again but Harry Potter. It is called "Until I Die", has 18 chapters so far(I wrote the last 2
already and now I'm at chapter 16 - so yes, 18 chapters.) and THIS time I wrote in English first!!! (other than with "Three Days - and a bit more..." which I write in my mother tongue German and
translate into English)
The German Translation will follow when it is published, but ONLY if more than 20 people ask for it and can swear truthfully that they will read it. I'm just not too fond of a German version this
time. It works better in English.(you know, British people, British places - everything Britain ;P)
Technical Data: Like with "Three Days" of which I wrote 15 chapter in 2 weeks, I wrote those 14 chapters in a little more than 3 weeks. After all
I've been working at my aunt's, where I could only write on paper when I had time and then type off those 20 pages of small written text. The first 20 A4 pages(computer) have been written in 3
days. XD
Content/Story Line: Nope, I won't tell. :|
But I won't neglect "Three Days". Don't worry. It just feels better at the moment to write rather than translate. But "Until I Die" won't be as long as "Three Days" anyway and since I don't mean
to translate it, I will just have to correct the stuff and can throw out a chapter per week then or so. We'll see how much time I'll have. After all I start at University today.*
And yes, I am a little absent from the internet. Basically I just use it for research if I'm too lazy to flip pages. I have more than 300 messages in my inbox on DeviantArt and I really DON'T
WANT! So please be patient. It might take a month or so until I'm through.
*Yes, you read right. Finally another - um - chapter (XD) in my life. Can't wait to see what kind of madness this will be.
As for jewellery stuff and cosplaying: I finished a commission two weeks ago(reproduction of "Spongy") and will continue working on cosplay related things as soon as ideas for that damn fic stop
flooding my brain. >.<
Ilionej over.
" . . . There are many doors.
Where they lead, is not always clear.
Only Janus might know, what lies behind.
So we should never open a door irresponsibly.
Or better let it remain shut.
Though – who never opens a door, will never know, what lies behind . . . "
