Hey guys :) I know it's been a while since I've done anything on here, so... I felt like y'all deserve an explanation, so, here this is. <3
          	
          	I've had some pretty bad writer's block and mental health issues, and a lot's been going on in my life that has left me nearly completely burnt out. I think every day about writing, and i have this perpetual guilt that I'm not on here as much as I used to be, uploading every two days when I was lit by that spark of inspiration. I look back on my work, and I feel like I didn't write all I wanted to write. That thought grew in my brain until it overshadowed everything I had planned on writing following my most recent chapter. My WIP chapters seemed aimless and baseless because I wasn't happy or sure of myself and what I was doing. I just couldn't keep going. And every time I come back to this app, I'm reminded of my confusion and fading inspiration, and disappointment that I haven't been able to upload for you guys. I promise, I think about you guys all the time and wish I could finish the story right now. But, this story is a big one, and I had around 50 more chapters planned :') I can't write half-hearted chapters for you guys, though, obviously. So I've decided to officially take a break from wattpad for a while. This app just doesn't make me happy anymore :( I love all of you, though, and I thank everything in my life for leading me here to you guys. I have loved every minute being on here, meeting all of you, and getting to receive your kind comments this past year and a half.

(part 2 of announcement) I am not done with this story. I'm just... old and slow, now :') it will be finished! Just right now, I need to do what I need to do in order to feel  good about myself and my story, which includes looking back and rewriting my old chapters that I'd churned out so long ago :') I need to feel good about my work. I'm very proud of this story, and I want to feel confident in all my chapters. So, I've opted for using AO3 for now, so they're out there in case y'all want to check out the new and improved chapters if you would like :3 again, I love you all to the moon and back. and eventually there will be new chapters on here. But right now, I just need time to breathe and revise, and to find joy in my craft again.
          
          Thank you for reading. And thank you for being here. I love you, endlessly <3

Been away from Wattpad for longer than I thought. Gonna be catching up on all y’all’s stories real soon :’) and I expect to be updating later today :D
          
          I recently moved, actually around when I suddenly disappeared off the face of the earth :’) it’s been a lot harder on me than I thought. I didn’t expect to be like this.
          
          I’m sorry to let you all down the past two months. I truly don’t know what happened, other than probably just feeling detached and unmotivated :( 
          
          I love you all ❤️ thank you for your patience with me lately, and I’m once again so sorry for being away :’)

I’m finally home, and at last I feel like I can edit :’)  I’ll hopefully have the next part out really really soon!! :D ❤️❤️❤️

@ 20blueskies02  yeesss cant wait and guess what I am that big fan of this story I started re-reading it again yesterday so I remind myself all the drama and cutness hahaha...seriously you have written the best Jerry & Layne multiple chapters story that's on Internet THAT'S NOT A JOKE oK? :D all the dialogues and the 'inside thinking' is so on poooint girl! Wish it never ends or that maybe you would have another idea for them because omg the way you write all the scenery around and emotions and sex scenes and frustration, pain...its all too captivating. Big thanks for your work :) <3

So I’m a little frustrated, because I can’t edit right now. I keep trying to, because I want to get that next chapter out, but I’m being dragged away every five minutes for something. I’m supposed to be on ‘vacation’ with my family right now, which is great, but I can’t really write, because or some reason there’s drama rn :’) I’m hoping to find some time to focus soon, thank you all for your patience!! Love you guys :’) ❤️❤️❤️

@Yeehaw_Time right??? Like every time I sat down I was suddenly being nagged by someone :’)
            
            You’re very sweet :3 thank you for all your support dude!!! I appreciate you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

@20blueskies02 BRO I FEEL YOU- Whenever I try to work on something writing-related SOMEHOW something happens and I get dragged away and distracted ✋✋ Like the only time I can be productive I get distracted??? Really man???
            
            (But really, don't worry about pumping chapters out instantly like a machine during vacation; we'll wait as long as it'll take you )
