Uglydolls Art, Crack, Memes, Etc.

(PLEASE READ)

Alrighty, so, it's been a minute. Hello. Awhile ago I posted that something had happened to me irl and that I couldn't be on this account as much, and now I finally feel like I have some time and data to spare to explain myself. I'm copy/pasting this announcement into a few of my more popular books just to make sure my bases are covered.

So here's the thing: a month ago, I had a big fight with my parents and they ended up finding out that I'm agnostic (and queer). Without getting too much into it, for context just know that they are both incredibly religious and incredibly strict. Further context, I'm an adult but am still living with them for financial reasons. I was worried that things would get really bad, but they didn't kick me out or anything, just said I still have to follow the house rules as long as I live with them. But they did restrict my access to our wifi hotspot to no more than 30 minutes per day, I guess to punish me? Or maybe because they no longer trust me. Either way, between my personal email, work email, online banking, and any google searches that I've been saving for those 30 minutes, it eats up a lot of my allotment. I'm not in any danger living here, don't worry. But my relationship with my parents has become strained lately, and I'm looking for an apartment to move into.

Here's what it ultimately comes to: I'll likely be using this account a lot less. I've already explained the situation with my parents' wifi, but even when I move into my own place, I'll likely be busy working a lot of the time just to make ends meet. What little downtime I have will likely be used for hanging out with friends and other hobbies I have. I doubt I'll have much time or motivation for writing fanfiction (I could be wrong about this, but we'll see). For now, I'll be marking all of the stories currently on my account as complete. I know this probably doesn't come as a huge shock to most of my readers, since I haven't been posting much recently anyway lol. My sincere apologies to everyone who's been waiting on updates for Uglydolls: Redux. I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it. If I get a chunk of spare time, I *might* be able to scrape together what I can of some of my story notes, doodles, etc. so y'all can at least know where I intended to go with the story (similar to what I did at the end of Breakaway). I can't garuntee anything though. I will try to continue to read, vote, and occasionally comment on chapters when the books in my library update (assuming I can even afford wifi once I move), but I likely won't be contributing much on my own account. Anyone who wants to unfollow me, it's perfectly ok, as I can't see myself posting much in the future besides maybe a vent or two. I'll still be leaving up my books for everyone to read. I'm incredibly grateful for my experience on this account and all of the friends I have made. Hopefully this isn't so much of a "goodbye" as much as it is a "see you later".

See you later,
