hey guys, its sarah. most of you dont know that thats my name. im 17, almost 18 years old. i am a senior in high school.

i began writing this when i was 14 years old. i was a freshmen in high school, and prior i had wrote fictional stories, one shots, and what have you, on several media outlets. i have loved writing and that has never changed. as i grow into a young adult, its obvious that my writing styles have changed. my growth and love for things have changed.

i reread chapters of this and just cringe at the writing, the character development, the whole thing. in later chapters you can sense a difference in writing styles, or even in just reading my other works, latch is mediocre at best. the story line is messy, the character development was horrid, the dialogue was messy, everything seemed pretentious. i never knew where everything was going and was just pulling things out of my ass and calling it a story. them getting into a car accident was suppose to happen later on, not chapter twelve. the first chapter scarlet acted like she didnt know calum was "kiwi" and scottish, but apparently they've all been friends since they were kids. i just wrote things that made no sense and several people have pointed it out. a therapist doesnt sit there and tell your families everything you guys talked about. its actually illegal.

i tried to make this story cool and edgy and make it like some popular fanfic and while it has a lot of views and comments, and boy that makes me beyond happy, i cannot sit here and say the whole story isn't flawed. that its just about two people's love life and theres nothing else going on. they fight, they make up, they have sex, for like twenty or so chapters.

im growing as a person. i want to make music, make videos, act, etc. i want to be an entertainer of some sort. one day, who knows how big i will be. with that, i am growing as a person. im not plvtonic, the fanfic writer, the one who obsesses over 5sos and one direction. im the guitar playing girl who listens to shuggie otis and the temptations. i watch eric clapton play and try to perfect my skills. i listen to red hot chili peppers and prince. i love 80's and 90's r&b. i write songs that i hope one day to share with the world. i am not the same 14 who wrote fanfics and hoped to become some popular. im not a super relatable quirky fangirl like colliscool (shes a cool girl, not bashing on her, im just using her as an example). and for a while i wanted to be like that (i even had a youtube channel and did a different types of fandoms video). i thought thats who i wanted to be, but thats not who i am. not 17 year old sarah.

17 year old sarah is a different type of peep. she is an asshole stan/fan whatever you want to call it. im more like those post viners like enya, christian leave, meech, jay versace etc. i still like all this stuff and i still love ALL OF YOU. i still read your comments and love the people who follow and read my stuff. im still growing and changing and still want you guys to be a part of that. i used to write stories on looseleaf in class and pass it to my friends so they could read chapters. being a writer and making stories is never going to chance. im still writing, and i will still write. i write songs, poems, and proses. and maybe i will still write stories and put it up here.

idk where this is going, im not saying im ending latch or my other fics, im just in limbo. i dont know if i plan on rewriting it, but i will not leave you guys empty handed. please be patient with me, please still love me and think im cool as shit. im going to college soon, im just a changing and growing gal. i use instagram and twitter a lot so if you guys wanna follow me and talk you guys can do that (insta: sar.jpeg : twitter @PLVTONIC )

i love and love and love you guys soooo sooo soooo much :)))))

much love, s
