Hey everyone!

Umm...I'm back? 😅

I think I just might be the first author to actually return and wrap up a book after an abrupt and long break😂😭

For those of you who haven't seen it yet, I posted an Author's Note on Wattpad a few months ago explaining what was happening in my life and what that means for my writing journey moving forward. If you haven't checked it out, I definitely encourage you to take a look!

Now, let's talk Life Update.

Since we last connected, I've officially graduated high school and kicked off my college journey. I started as an English major because storytelling has always been my passion. However, I quickly realized that the reading and writing workload was more overwhelming than I expected, which turned it into a bit of a stressor. I was on the path to disliking English because of my Major😬 So, I made the tough decision to switch to accounting. It's a big change, but honestly, it feels like the right path for me right now.

On another note, I'm super excited to share that I've launched a YouTube channel called IMjustAGirl! I've been putting in a lot of work, and I can hardly believe I've reached 10,000 subscribers!🥹💞The support has been amazing, and I've even landed a few sponsorships. I cover everything from skincare and beauty tips to academic advice, and it's been a wonderful creative outlet.

Haven't uploaded in a while tho💀 Y'all, college is killing me😭 Like I genuinely don't know how I do it!!😭😭

Anyways, on the personal front, I'm really happy to say that I've found an incredible boyfriend🥹🥰. After day dreaming for years for this moment, I'm finally taken lol. But yeah, we've been dating for a year and a few months.

Lately, I've been reflecting on my past and realized just how much I miss writing. It's that bittersweet feeling of nostalgia we all experience from time to time. So, I decided to take a look back at some of my old books and yeah, I ended up cringing at my earlier writing.

Why y'all didn't tell me?!!!💀😭

But it sparked an idea: what if I reimagined some of those stories or picked up those unfinished pieces? I feel like I've grown a lot as a writer, and I'm curious to see what I can create now with a fresh perspective. So I opened watt-pad and just started typing.

Just to clarify, writing will be more of a side project for me—between wrapping up classes and keeping up with my YouTube channel, I definitely have a full plate! But staying busy really gives me a sense of purpose and keeps me motivated. I love that feeling of being productive and not just going through the motions!

I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for sticking by me during this whirlwind of changes in my life. Your support has truly meant the world to me and has been a beacon of light during both the highs and lows of my journey. I often reflect on the early days when your encouragement helped me find my voice and confidence as a writer. Whether it was through your kind words in the comments or your enthusiastic responses to my early work, you have played an essential role in my growth and development as an author. While I can't say for certain if you're all still cheering for me now, I am profoundly grateful that you continue to support my books and share in my journey, no matter where it leads.

As I look to the future, I am excited to share that I have some plans in the works! I'm in the process of refurbishing some book covers and reimagining various elements of my work to give them a fresh perspective. I believe these updates will not only enhance the overall experience for you as readers but also bring new energy to my stories. I'm also working on a new book 'Beneath The Crown' which was in the works 2020! I'm super excited!!

Thank you for continuing to be part of this journey with me. I can't wait to unveil the new look and share more updates soon!

love youuuuu💞
