Quickfire update on the Broken Circles sequel:
          	
          	- have written five of the eight parts
          	- wrote myself into a corner
          	- is tricky to get out of
          	- paused for exams
          	- got sucked back into the Sonic fandom and am being held hostage by a certain black and red hedgehog that is coincidentally in my name
          	- am now done with exams
          	- progress shall resume alongside STH as best I can (just might take a wee bit longer than planned) XD
          	
          	I've got three weeks until my second semester begins again, and I still have a week off work. Fingers crossed motivation blesses me for one last push

Hey there! I'm an old fan who fell in love with Broken Circles. i just want to know how you're progressing on the sequel as I was eagerly awaiting to read the 2nd book and maybe when you plan on publishing it. No pressure, I just cant wait for it!

@mj3648 hi! I'm excited that you liked the story so much! Two months ago, my laptop was stolen, and for some unknown reason, the first two parts of the sequel were never saved to the cloud. I have the others, just not the first two. That, on top of family troubles, has tanked the motivation a little. I still fully intend to finish it. Just need to pick myself up

I was gonna wait until it was finished, but given that I am currently rounding up Part III of the Broken Circles sequel, I feel quite safe in telling you that it is indeed happening!
          
          Given the time difference between writing the first and writing the second, there is a style change. During my time working on the first, I was reading specific books for my degree and there was one that inspired me to write like that. I refuse to reread it because the actual book was super boring, and I've since been under fire by my editors and supervisors about my writing style. I have tried to at least keep them similar
          
          Soon, hopefully!

I remember my password after nearly two years to find 31 DMs, and 371 notifs??? everyone good, hello??
          
          in all seriousness, I am not *back* back, but I am slowly finding time to write for pleasure again since my professional writing is nearing final stages. so far, only a couple of poems have made it into zines and journals - nothing major; but I am writing almost everyday. lately, I have been drawn back to the SoW world and the itch to write the Broken Circles sequel returns. I still make no promises, but even after everything and all this time, it'll take a lot for me to truly leave. after all, I redraw the same SoW art piece every January for progress XD
          
          that said, if you are new here, welcome! I hope you'll enjoy your stay, even if I'm not around much. I love you all; you have my blessings <3

I sought academic validation for my writing in university 
          
          I did not get it

Your writing is so good why on earth- seriously why are they ignoring such great talent? Doesn’t make sense. Don’t worry, your books are amazing and you definitely have supporters here!

Somebody got me talking about the 'Broken Circles' sequel that I had planned out like a year ago and I got all hyped talking about the plot
          
          AND I TALKED FOR TWO STRAIGHT HOURS ABOUT IT
          
          And I hate it because I love it but idk if I can write it XD

@Dragonberry16 this made me laugh so much XD
            I shall give it some good consideration after I've moved house next week

@Kankan0403 need all the help I can get at this point, although if I told you I've skipped classes to write some chapters to the fanfictions on my profile, would you still say the same thing? XDD

Happy birthday again, dearest Aftermath, my writing milestone
          
          The years pass by, 
          the clock ticks on, 
          but you were but a step in the direction I'm headed, 
          and I thank you. 
          
          You may be behind me, 
          I may be moving on, 
          but you never forget where you came from, 
          and I thank you.
          
          (I'm in a fashionably dramatic mood, don't mind me-)
          :')
