acknowledgments

{i wonder if she made the willow} *smirk smirk*

so, just a heads up, i dont even know if i spelled acknowledgments right?? oh whale.

anywhore, this is just going to be a huge authors note filled with a all the good times of this story, the bad times, the twists and thanks! and at the very end, author Q&A, where you guys can ask me anything and ill reply to all!

i wanna start off and just say: holy fucking shit. that was a wild but beautiful ride if we're being honest. who knew I could actually write a full story?

going back and looking at some of the older chapters, i think my writing has gotten extremely better. i tried to keep the length of the chapters about the same but i do admit some were extremely too short. i hope I can work on that as I continue writing.

so, did u guys like the twists of the story? like when nash admitted he was sick or when willow walked in to find her mom? or what about when cam confessed his love for willow?

comment your favorite twist!

when i first started writing on wattpad, i started this story and it kind of blew up pretty fast if im being honest. so, eventually, i decided to just write for magcon. i think it was a good decision and im happy.

12:26 definately was a struggle to write. of course, me being the illiterate termite i am, didnt plan ahead for it. most writers will plan everything that happens in the story, but i didnt. i would just think of an idea and type it up. then build from there. i wouldnt say im completely happy with the outcome but im definately satisfied.

of course there were times when i had terrible writers block and i literally had no idea what to write about. i would normally go read a book or some other fanfics or watch a movie and just kind of let it bubble up my ideas. and then id go from there and put my own twist on it to make it me.

i think i started 12:26 in late july???

i wanna talk about favorite chapters. i think mine would definately be chapter 3 after nash drives willow home. when they lay on the curb and he tells her she's beautiful, i just cri amirite ladies?

comment your favorite chapter!

i also like chapter 15 i believe (hahahahaha see what i did there (; IMNOT FUNNY IM SORRY) when nash takes willow to the justin bieber concert.

speaking of justin bieber, i wanna thank all the readers who dont actually like JB but continued reading and didnt feel the need to comment something hateful about him. that actually means alot to me because he's my sunshine and he's been there for me since 2008. ♡

now, onto thanks. ive mentioned some of these people before in the other chapters but its alright.

my first thanks is to nash of course. thank you for being there you little cunt. i love you more than words can explain.♡

next, i wanna thank andrea russett for being the most perfect willow i could ever ask for. youll forever be my girl crush.

of course, I have to thank my bby Alice. Alice, you've been here since I've first started 12:26 and i hope youre not going anywhere. youve helped me through this story and just life in general soo much. we may be over 1,000 miles away but youll always have a special place in my heart. ily♡

AND OFC thank you, Claire. You and Alice and I will always be best friends despite time zones and life. ill always be there for you. Venice is love, Venice is life. youve supported me and my writing so much and I just cant thank you enough honestly. i remember when you sent me that first inbox and we've been friends ever since.

now, moving onto my future as a wattpad writer.

I am currently writing two books, Slender Man and Motel 6.

I am also preparing my Cam fanfic, which will be called Scripts.

It has been brought to my attention that I should write a book of storylines for my readers to have?? comment if I should!

A collab is coming soon from me and maddie as well! we will most likely put it on her account. itll be for Nash and I'm really fucking excited tbh. check her out: Matthew-lee

of course Ive said so many times before that after this series, I will write a disney themed one. I honestly dont want to release too many details because, for 1) im not close to being done with this series and 2) im not sure that i even want to write it.

of course, you're probably thinking "wUt lil bish yUo promised uz you wood wriTe anotha suriez." well, i did. but im going to wait until my first series is almost over to see if i want to continue writing...

--

So, there will be no spinoff from me of this story.

of course, if my readers would like, you can write one.

heres some topics for a spinoff:

cam and astrid-how their relationship goes during nashs life or after they have their baby.

nash and willow- it can be about them in the afterlife together or there could be new equipment in the science field to bring people back to life and boom! their relationship gets a second chance

and thats rly all the ideas i have..

if you do write a spinoff, please inbox me about it/dedicate it to me so ill see! ♡ youll most likely get endless fanfic shoutouts from me

--

if youd like to translate this story, please inbox me about it.

--

if youd like to make a trailer, of course youre welcome to and ill use it at the beginning of the fanfic and youll get cred obvi.

--

i hope you guys continue to read my stuff because 12:26 is just one of the stories i have. i also hope you continue to tell your friends and readers about this story!

--

character Q&A will be up tomorrow??
