Guys.

Thank you. So. Much.

All your support, right from the beginning, has been frickin' amazing. I honestly don't think I would have got to the end without all your comments and votes - I LOVE YOU ALL.

Truthfully, when I started out with this book, I didn't think I'd get even 100 reads, and there was a point where I was thinking to myself that I was really running out of ideas, and not many people were reading anyway, so I might as well just discontinue it. I'm so glad I didn't.

Though this book isn't really my proudest work (there's a shit-ton of cringe-y moments in it for sure!), I think it was really a journey for me. It helped me develop my style a little, get used to Wattpad, and most importantly, meet all you wonderful people along the way. I can't thank you enough for everything.

(Shoutout to Fuyu_Tsukiakari, Delilah_The_Duck, SierraOwls, SuperSecretBoyBand, mycriticalobsession and tensetent.

So - what next?

Don't worry, I'm not leaving Wattpad any time soon! You've probably noticed updates have been really slow of late - I've been bogged down with essays and work and stuff, so I haven't had much time to write recently. Hopefully it'll ease up a little later on in the year and I'll be able to update more regularly.

If you like Hat Films/Yogscast or just want to be reassured that I'm still alive, I'm fairly active on Instagram and Tumblr (both just fridgetax4), where I mostly just reblog Hat Films quotes, make gifs, take screenshots of Hat Films stuff and fangirl over Hat Films' faces. If that interests you, go check it out :)

In terms of actual writing, I'm still going to write stuff for my Yogscast short stories book and my Alex Smith one-shot book whenever I get the inspiration, and I'm also thinking of starting a new book (similar to this one) based around Hat Films!

It's an idea in progress, and I haven't really planned much yet, but someone suggested a while back that I write something along the lines of the reader being an artist/editor for the Yogscast and befriending Hat Films, and then maybe falling in love with them, and then Hat Films trying to compete to win the reader's heart... yeah, it's not really developed, but something along those lines.

Another idea is maybe a Teenscast style thing (including the reader)? I've always liked the idea of the Yogs in school, fucking around in class and falling in love with each other and all that. I've written stuff like that before in my Yogs one-shot book and Smith book, so I sort of have an idea how to write it.

So yeah, I don't know exactly what I'm going to do next. If anyone has suggestions, feel free to comment. Oh, and if you want to request something for either of my one-shot books, even if you think it's a really weird or stupid idea, drop a message in my inbox. Weird and stupid is what I do best :) It might take a while, but I promise, I'll eventually get round to it.

Final thing - this might be a disappointment to some, but chapter lengths are probably going to get shorter. By shorter I don't mean like cutting down from 3000+ words to, like, 100 words, but they probably won't be as long - simply because I don't have enough time in my life to write that much that often. However, it will hopefully mean updates will become more regular, so in the long term, you'll be getting more in the same amount of time.

Once again, thank you. I'm so lucky to have all of you.

This is FridgeTax4, signing off.

EDIT: about the epilogue thing, I've been thinking about doing an extra chapter set in the future (maybe an anniversary, wedding, etc.)? It's not exactly my number one priority at the moment, so don't expect anything XD but yeah, that might be a thing.

Oh, and if anyone really wants to see something set in this story's universe (like a prologue or something, or maybe a chapter from Lewis' point of view), then just request it down below and I'll put it in my one-shots book.

Thanks all!
