the cabin 》h.s

thank you.

Let me start off by saying, thank you to everyone who read or even gave this book a chance. I'll admit, though it's not as big as Brothers' Best Friend, The Cabin has a massive piece of my heart, one that would be impossible to explain.

First & foremost, I just want to say a massive thank you to those who stuck to this book & made it to the very end. To those who were here from the beginning as well as to those who remained loyal & patient with my updates. Also, a thank you to those that started reading this in the middle of my updates; or even now when it's already complete.

This story wouldn't be where it is today without the love & support of those who stuck to it till the end. Whether or not you've been here since the beginning, it means so much to me knowing that you're here now. This book was crap back then but you guys made it worth the re-write.

And though no one asked, I just have to tell y'all, lmao.

Back in 2012-2013, I had actually written The Cabin as a 12 chapter "one shot" on my tumblr that's since been deleted, unfortunately. I was about 16-17 in the living room of my old apartment, staying up till almost 6AM, when I came across one shots on this 1D one shots blog. I can't remember the exact name but I remember the first time I came across these one shots. S/o to you if you know the blog I'm talking about. iykyk

Anyway, I had never heard of such a thing but of course, I was curious and it was then when I was exposed to the smut stories.

I can't remember what made me write one, but I remember I had read this specific story by one of my now good friends Allie, on tumblr. I forgot how we became such good friends, let alone how we even met. But I know it involved her au about Harry being a chemistry teacher. It was SO good.

But anyway, from there I actually began to think of a unique smut au. Thus giving birth to The Cabin. It sucked, don't get me wrong. Then, fast forward a few years, after having already joined wattpad, while I was still writing Brothers Best Friend, before even thinking about making a sequel, I was sat in my room thinking, Well, what happens when this is over?

I started to think of ways to keep all of my readers coming for more, no pun intended. And it was when, despite my doubts, I decided upon giving The Cabin another shot.

Now, mind you, at the time The Cabin was all y/n this, y/n that. God, the memories of the y/n era! It was a wild story, too. Like, who even let me write this shit at that age. I'm talking having it involved with roofies (don't worry no r*pe involved, I honestly forgot why I even brought up roofies, like wtf). "Y/n" and Harry were never friends, he was actually a bully, especially to her. The best friend, who had a different name I can't remember, DID expose their fling but drunkenly & mistakenly at some party. Harry was a literal always angry guy. The trip was actually just a three day thing. Jacob, which was Jake's name at the time, (hence the homage in the epilogue) was a little more involved & kind of a dork, but a useless character compared to how useful he was in this story towards the end. And it was just constant back and forth, specifically from Harry. There was no rumor involved, none of the details from this story were in that one. I basically changed EVERYTHING.

That shit sucked, end of.

Now, seeing that I finished this book within five years, looking back I see that I've come a long way. I'm going to miss writing this book. These characters were my life for half a decade, if not more. And before I get asked for a sequel, unfortunately, I can't. Nor do I really want to. I'm proud of & just flat out love the way I ended it. & I just hope you love it, too.

Also, I just really want to release my drafts already. I can't procrastinate for shit & I just really want a new story with a new vibe.

So, without further ado, I hope you all can head on over & give my newest book The Babysitter a chance. That, & I can finally continue Harry & Carter's story in Where We Land, the sequel to BBF, which is no longer put on hold. :)

I love you guys with every inch of my heart. ♡

I really hope the ending was enough & worth the five year wait. Your commitment & love for my story/stories is what always made me want to come back. So thank you. For everything.
