Please read until the end. <3

Hi everyone, I'm really sorry for the way I've been these past few months; hardly updating etc.

I have some bad news, which doesn't come easy to say, and it is something I have mulled over for so long that I've tried to avoid, but now, I just can't.

I will be quitting writing for good. Or at least for a long while. I'm so sorry to disappoint you all and to leave writing like this, but the next few years (at least) will be incredibly hard.

A lot of my friends have gone to university, and so are still in education. I am on an apprenticeship, which here in the UK means training on the job. It basically means I have to complete three levels over the next three years before I can qualify and then become a nursery practitioner. It's similar to studying, only I am in full-time work now and I literally have no time for updating. Plus, my writers block has hit an all time low and I have nothing to show for it anymore.

My anxiety therapy is also not enough, according to my counsellor and so over the next year I'll be being referred to a different counselling team, who can help me through it. I feel like everything is too much to do right now and that writing is no longer an escape for me, and is instead becoming extra stress.

I feel if I try to carry on, I will simply continue to stress myself out and fail to provide decent imagines for you all, and you all deserve better.

However, I will NOT be deleting any of my books, or my account. I feel I have worked too hard on them to delete them, and I still want the option to be able to continue if I ever get to the point where I'd like to. I also will be active on Wattpad when I can, as I still love reading and I'd love to keep in touch with you guys, or at least be here for you all.

I love you all SO SO SO much, you have no idea what you've done for me by reading actively and showing me so much support. I will never forget any of you. ❤️

Lots of love, always,

Lauren xxx
