Hello, everyone!
I've made the really difficult decision to resign as fedhead of AWF and step away from admin duties for the time being.
Truth be told, I've been going through an extremely difficult time IRL with family members having health problems (COVID and insanity and cancer, oh my!), my own mental health taking a severe dive (hey depression WHATTUP), and having to care for my family during their various ailments (sleeping in a car in a parking lot isn't fun y'all). I'm also leaving the job I've had for almost four years to join a super high pressure new job in the pharma/clinical research industry starting this month (turns out, working in travel/tourism isn't the best place to be), and when everything is added up... it just isn't fair for me to stay.
It's not fair to the amazing members we have for me to stay in charge. When you PM an admin about an idea, it should be met with unbridled enthusiasm, not apathy. When you want RP feedback, it should be met with careful criticism, not overt annoyance. And you deserve someone that is able to treat upcoming shows with excitement instead of dread. I like you all too much to stick around in this position, and I care too much about AWF's legacy to let my ego get in the way.
I've been going consistently with XHF for three years at this point without taking a single break. That's a long time to keep this up! I'm proud of what I've done in those three years, and am proud of some of the stories and events we've put on while I've been fedhead. I'm leaving the team in very capable hands. Teeps has been around since I signed on two and some odd change years ago, and Kuroi has kept this place's heart beating since the very beginning. Adrien has been the most impactful member of the admin team I've seen in my time here, and he's only been here six months. Trust me, things are gonna stay great, and possibly even get better with my leave!
Six months in charge of this fed has been an absolute privilege, and I hope you all enjoyed your time here while I was in charge. The future looks bright, and I'll be AWF till I die. For the time being, I'm sitting and thinking about what my next character should be in AWF now that Seth is gone (so if any of you have ideas or want to run a story, let me know) and will keep my overall participation in fed stuff down until I get a better handle on my new job. (Don't worry, Caffrey, MAJESTY will still be around.) Could be days, could be weeks, could be months, could be years, who knows? I sure don't. This new job is gonna be a bitch.
But goddamn, being here in AWF has been fun, and the biggest privilege of my efedding career. Erez, Teeps, Ryan, Chao, Bailey, Adrien -- you've all been fucking fantastic. Thanks for enriching my life. Maybe one day I'll trust you guys enough to add you on Facebook. To the entire AWF Universe - much love to you all.
