Hi- been a while XD. I was so set on writing an epilogue for Their Little Beauty but it just wasn't coming to me like the rest of the story did. To be completely honest, I haven't been able to write anything since finishing it even though I'd had no intention of stopping at one book. I re-read the last chapter again and honestly, I think an epilogue is unnecessary. I felt obligated to write one because people wanted one (I understand why) and I was enjoying having an active reader base but those aren't good reasons to write in my opinion. They're just self-serving when after all this time, I realise Briar's story is done. Whatever life you imagined for them after reading 'The End' is the life they lived. You got to know the characters in the book and I'm sure that whatever future you imagined for them, Briar and his lovers were very happy. So basically, I have decided TLB will *not* have an epilogue. I'm sorry if anyone was actually still waiting on one coming even after all this time, but I feel like forcing an epilogue would be a really crappy thing to do to the book and all the hard work I put in. It's been so long now that I feel a happy contentment with the book as it is. I would like to rewrite it one day and fix any mistakes I made but that's not a priority.
What I have thought about recently is finally getting around to writing Stephen's book. Years ago when writing TLB I had already planted some seeds in my google drive on how I envisioned his story to go, but it is a much messier and mature book and still don't quite know how it'll end. Planning a book too much kills the desire to write it so I'm not overthinking it at the moment.
TLB will receive an update when I post a preview of Stephen's book. I don't know when that'll be but it probably won't be the same type of fluffy and cute as TLB so if that was what you were looking for, maybe I'll have something for you in the future.
I appreciate all the love you gave my book and thank you.

@SquishyandSquash The last chapter was an interview with the characters and was to be a kind of 'fun' way of addressing questions for the characters from commenters. I had promised an epilogue was coming and felt so guilty for not delivering. Bonus chapters were in the works (an omegaverse au and a halloween au where each of them was a monster species but I didn't finish them. Maybe in the future).

I'm bouncing between two options that have their pros and cons and would love personal input from you guys! I am working on some stories that are wildly different from Their Little Beauty- they're dark, and in the sci-fi or supernatural genre and focus more so on story than just pure romance. So, I am wondering if posting those when I'm ready on a second account would be better, and keeping this account for the more 'light-hearted' and romance-focused plotted stories. So I either post all stories to this account, even if they don't have much in common (for a reader who finished one story, they mostly prefer being able to see similar stories by the author and not vastly different ones), or I have two accounts- one for stories like Their Little Beauty (dark moments, but mostly romance focused and sweet), and another account for darker, gritter, less romance stories. What do you think?

@Aurora123xx do what's good for you. I personally read and follow a writer for the stories not the genre of the stories.

From a readers perspective I rather enjoy the author& their writing style than the genre of book. Readers can pick & choose what to read based on the description, I wouldn’t go out of your way to make a second account unless you are niche focused. I don’t only read romance focused or story based & I feel if a reader enjoys your writing they may not mind branching out.

Gonna be publishing a story soon that I haven't worked on for over a year, but want to know if what has been written for it so far, seems interesting to people. It's a story that I think about a lot but have lost motivation to write, and want to see if people have feedback about it that might give me the 'bump' I need to keep writing it.

@Aurora123xx oh no! it's gone already? I was looking forward to reading another bit of your work, will you be reuploading it?

I dont want to sound disrespectful, bu i really love your writing and the concepts behind those stories, especially "their little beauty". So, is it okay if i ask for recommendations that are similar to your story? like tag wise etc, obviously not the whole plot.
If not, thats totally fine, i can just delete this post or you can do it. Its just you opened up my mind to such plot lines and i would love to read more. Again, you are such a talented writer, i think i have read "their little beauty" about 5 times now and yeah. i always come back if i want to read something i liked very much.

@Yunaaaaira I agree with The Simplicity in a need :) But maybe you could also try Their Boy Beloved by SageKincaidBooks. It's poly and bdsm, but not age-regression.

I just want to say I love there little beauty I have not finished yet but getting close a question though is the book already completed I just wondering
Aurora123xx
@Alyna4148 I have not written any new books, and I also have not added any side couples as of yet. I spent a whole year on TLB, and by the end of it, I feel a little tired of writing the same universe. In time I will likely make a second book about Stephen and his future, but nothing is planned yet.

If it isn't pushy or too much, do you plan to update journey for a soulmate on tapas? I really loved reading Their Little Beauty and was enjoying watching your new shifter story as it turned out.

@Ratzilla17 Oh damn, didn't think anyone read that XD I don't righty know in all honesty- I loved the idea and had a vision for how the story would go but after not writing it for a little while I lost passion for it. For now, I'll say that I would love to get back to writing it one day but can't say for sure when that day will be. I appreciate you reading it though, it wasn't very popular last time I logged in haha!

Hey, how are you doing? I love your stories xx :)

Thats kind of me too, if I don’t start getting chrismassy now then I won’t ever feel it. I love the food and Christmas dinners but I’m looking forward to Christmas Eve, in the evening when all the decorations are twinkling and it’s warm and cozy, everyone’s mellow and calm in the living room where we’ll just binge watch loads of Christmas films. I just love the build up on Christmas Eve cause Christmas Day usually just feels really anti-climatic and fast :D

@n00d1e_s0op Good to hear you're alright :) And honestly, it various wildly- either I'm in the Xmas spirit by end of November, or I never get into it at all XD. Used to love the whole Christmas shebang but last few years just ain't been feeling it all that much. The food though... it always slaps. What're you looking forward to this year?
