I plan on taking a short break from posting.  I need the time to solely focus on writing for my stories, and not worrying about typing up the chapters, since that can take awhile.  It's just easier for me to stay in a good rhythm of writing every day that way.  I'm already up to chapter 10 for "ruin the friendship" in my notebook, so this break might be like a couple of weeks?  It just depends how much writing I'm able to get done.  I really need to get "casual kisser" caught up on more chapters too, since I've only written up to chapter 4 in my notebook for it.

Hey guys, I just wanted to let you know I've decided "ruin the friendship" and "casual kisser" will be my only books for the summer.  I revisited my other ideas and there wasn't enough there for me to write for them like I originally thought.  Plus, my current books have been taking up a lot more time and thought than I expected.  I did a lot of thinking that took up pretty much this whole afternoon, and I was able to come up with future autumn books that should work out better.  I know it's early to be thinking about fall books, but I had more inspiration for them, and I don't want to feel rushed on writing for them, since my fall and Christmas books are usually the ones I get the most ideas for every year.  I've just been way too hard on myself lately about having to write for every idea I have, and it's just been too overwhelming.  I will finish my current books though.  I even have a few chapters written out in my notebook that I need to type up.  I just always like to keep you guys updated on where I'm at.  I've realized that I need to stop getting ahead of myself, and assuming that everything I brainstorm will get published.  I do love the ideas I come up with, but some of them are a struggle to even write past the first chapter.  Anyway, I hope you've had a great weekend. ❤️ And two of my summer ideas might get repurposed into fall books, since they make more sense during that season anyway. ❤️

@AnneLittlepage Right now I don't plan on posting any Christmas stories in July.  I haven't even started thinking up Christmas ideas yet.  I've thought up 7 fall ideas, but I don't want to share them yet until I start writing for them, and see which ones do the best.  I would love if they all eventually worked out, but I don't want to get ahead of myself.  I'm happy that you're interested in how they'll go from being friends into a relationship in "ruin the friendship."  I'm still figuring it out myself, but I think I know what the scene will be when things will change between them now.  That means a lot that you're interested in what my new stories will be. ❤️

Are you going to post any Christmas stories for Christmas in July?  What are your fall stories that you are thinking of writing?  "Ruin the Friendship" I'm interested in finding out how they change from being friends to getting into a relationship.
            I enjoy your stories so I'm always interested in what the new story will be.

The last chapter of "naughty list" is now up.  I feel like I tied everything together well in it, but I also feel like it was a bit rushed.  I had lost the passion for the story, and it was hard for me to finish it.  I plan on making my new stories better though.  I'm going to try to make them not as rushed and longer.  I've always struggled with writing longer stories, but  I also think it's nice when they're longer so that the relationship in them can happen more gradually.  Anyway, I hope you still like the last chapter of "naughty list."
