Hey guys! How you all doing? It has been a while, in fact it's been literally 6 months by now, how time flies!! I hope you have all been good :D
Anyway, as you can tell, this is an Update.. I have been meaning to do this for about a month now, but time goes by so fast and I keep getting distracted and forgetting to, but, I have news, not great news, but it is good, I promise!
You've probably jumped onto here after seeing that I have 'updated' this story, I have had a lot of readers since this story started last year all the way through, even way after it finished, which I very, very much appreciate, it truly does mean a lot that people (thousands of people) are enjoying this story.
I mean it's not like I am J K Rowling, I'm just a normal young girl, adult girl, young as in 21 (22 in August), I am someone who struggled through childhood, parents divorce and then my biological Father walking out on myself and my two younger sisters (moved to America with his wife and had 3 more girls with her, haven't seen him since), I also struggle with learning difficulties and hearing disabilities and didn't do amazing in school, you know, struggled with most subjects and had helpers, but I've pretty much always been into story writing, wrote a small story for an English assignment when I was like 14 which myself and my Mum was impressed with (don't forget, learning difficulties and other disabilities). I didn't really 'write' again until I was in college, I was probably 16/17 at the time, I started writing a fan-fiction, and then it all went on from there.. so like I said, just a normal girl..
I have always worked, since I finished education at 18, I've always been a cleaner, nothing special, but it pays enough (maybe someday I'll be this super accomplished person with a story, like those videos you see about famous movie stars having a crappy start in life, lol, a girl can dream). My writing is purely just a hobby, and I know I'm not great with my English writing, I mean like using strange words with weird/simple meanings, you know like, those words you can't even spell/pronounce.. I got a D grade in English, I'm not a smart person haha. It's something that I enjoy doing, when I get the time to do it..
On the subject of time, and the actual reason I'm here writing an update, because I totally got off track just then telling you all my damn life story LOL! How interesting.... not..
This story, it has been 6 months since I finished it, and you guys already know that there is a sequel happening (final chapter says right at the very end).. now, it is still happening, I swear, and I know you were probably hoping that it would be getting published on here by now, I was hoping that too, I hoped to have to up like 2 months ago, but there has been a delay, I know, sorry. Work has been well and truly getting in my way, I work 45 hours a week, full time job is a night job, and then there's my first ever job, part time which is in the afternoons.. but I am leaving the full time job at the end of this month, I'm tired of working night shifts and missing the days, I don't have much of a life because all I do is work and sleep, even seeing my own family is a little difficult..
The sequel is in progress, I have roughly 7/8 chapters typed, it isn't a lot, but it is started, and the ideas I have for this sequel, it's going to be exciting if I can pull it off, new characters, new surprises and more rocky roads to go down.
I'm hoping that when I have left my night job, while I have roughly 6 weeks off from full time work (I start a new full time job mid August, day time, slightly less hours too, which is great), I am hoping to be able to work a lot on the sequel (not like every single day but more than what I've been managing this year, like 4 hours a weekend, I get like half a chapter written).. and I am hoping that at some point in the summer, I can start putting it up on here, now the summer isn't a guarantee, but I would like to myself have the sequel started on here.. I would start it now, but with only 7 chapters completed, there would only be a chapter here and there uploaded, I'd prefer pretty much what I did last time, every weekend or two, I don't really like being inconsistent.
Well I promised it was good news, but like I said, not great news, there is more time to wait, but this sequel is definitely happening!! I'm excited, I hope you guys are too, if you are still interested in Addi and Stefan's story that is.
Maybe when I have around 15 chapters done, which hopefully at the end of June, I'll have more time to easily get 8 chapters done, I'll start posting it then, at least that way I'll have nearly 4 months of posting to do while continuing to write the story, I'll be ahead on the chapters, but you guys will have something to read.. how does that sound?
Anyway, enough of my chit chat, I know I've been 'away' for the last 6 months, but you probably haven't missed me this much :P I just wanted to let you guys know what as happening and assure you that the sequel is happening, I just need a bit more time. I hope you can understand, if not then.. sorry..
Have a great weekend everyone, and I look forward to being more active soon, hopefully.
Thanks for taking the time to read this (if you've made it this far). And yeah, stay happy, healthy and have a great weekend!!
