Happy New Year everyone!
          	
          	I hope 2025 brings a great deal of joy and success to everyone.  For everyone’s knowledge, I have ended my contract with the Wattpad Creator’s program, and I believe that means that the Devil’s Deal Series is now no longer a paid story. So that means it’s free for you to read. 
          	
          	I hope to finish posting my Truth Seeker series, which is on it’s last book, but after that I have not yet decided what I’m going to be doing with my writing. I have gone through some highs and lows, including people stealing my stories and selling them on Amazon, as well as all the support I’ve had from you all.  I have been struggling to find my writing mojo consistently and have several stories started that are now collecting dust.  I have wanted to self-publish the Devil’s Deal series for a while now, so I will possibly look into doing that, but there are costs to things and I have learned that writing isn’t going to be something I will make money at. It doesn’t mean I’ll stop, just that I need to invest in it for the joy in myself, which I need to find once more. 
          	
          	I am forever grateful that even one person has read my writing, gotten to know my worlds and characters and has enjoyed what I have created.  I will keep my writing on here for now, love you all.

I am so sorry! I hadn’t really known that the contract would end end like that until suddenly I got the email that it was, and I don’t see “Wattpad Originals” on the story anymore. :( 
          	  
          	  I had begun to address that in the cross over  that tells Urdu’s story, that I was posting with WhiskeyJaneDoe on the WhiskySins profile, but our lives both got busy away from writing so that’s been collecting dust too.

Happy NaNo WriMo everyone. 
          
          I wasn't sure if I was going to try it, until Oct 31, then I signed up, hoping it gets me back on track for working on Oathbreaker.  Not sure what my update schedule for the book will be like yet, we'll see what I can manage with writing / editing while working and doing school. 
          
          How's everyone doing?

I love your work! I wanted to ask if you ever plan on publishing your Elemental Witch Series. Because I am absolutely in love with this series and I would love to support your writing.

ohmanidkk

I totally get that! I‘m studying English at uni, so if you ever need someone to beta read or edit (for free of course) let me know and I‘ll gladly do so!

@ohmanidkk thank you so much for your support and kind words. I would like to, but I would love to have them properly edited first. Just haven’t found the time to try it myself  or the money to get it done yet. But if that changes I will definitely let you know!

Hi love,
          It's been such a pleasure having read all your books thus far. Patiently waiting on child of calamity II. I've been on bed rest for the past 2 weeks and it's been hell, so your work has brought back some happiness and light to my life.
          Thank you for your amazing storytelling and looking forward to all your future books.
          Love and appreciation from South Africa ❤️

Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m sorry to hear about your bedrest and I hope that whatever happened, you are recovering and feeling better soon.

Can I just buy your book?
          Like download a soft copy and pay for them.
          I read them before when they were free and loved them
          They're basically the only reason I have Wattpad installed.
          Lemme know if I can buy them instead of paying for Wattpad premium.

Sorry, I don’t have them  up for sale at the moment. But thank you for the kind words and support!

For followers of Elemental Thief Part 1, the end is nigh! 
          Well, part one will be wrapping up by the end of the month, but don’t worry, I will also be posting two chapters instead of one, every Monday, Thursday and Saturday. ( I think it starts on monday, or sometime next week). I just have the epilogue to write, but the rest is edited. 
          
          I hope you’ve enjoyed the story, but there is plenty left, as Elemental Thief is longer and split into three parts like Elemental witch before it.  I think Part one will top out at around 90ish chapters. 
          
          For those of you who like long, ongoing stories like Wattpad Originals, The Sword Keeper series is going to be quite expansive, as after Elemental Thief, there is another story, Elemental Saviour, to follow. Oh. And it’s free! 
          
          Anyways, I hope everyone is enjoying the last bit of summer. Don’t hesitate to drop me a line here or a comment in my stories to let me know what you think! I enjoy the small notes and comments I receive that let me know how people are finding the story.

Hello everyone! 
          
          I wanted to apologize for disappearing for a few weeks. I moved (again) and didn't realize I would be without internet access for as long as I was. I had some chapters prescheduled to launch, but those ran out a few days ago. 
          
          I'll try to restart the same schedule for Child of Calamity, but we'll see! 
          
          I hope everyone is doing well. How are your summers going?

BksbyBkr

@SnowLion Oh so glad it’s been normal!  I do miss the cooler fall nights, but I don’t miss winter, so I’m staying OK with summer lol 
            
            It went ok! Just lots of work settling into a new place and job

@BksbyBkr My summer is pretty normal so far. I am ready for the cool weather to arrive, though. I hope your summer has been good (:
            
            I hope your move went well. I am looking forward to more chapters!

I hope everyone is doing well. :) I noticed I have a few more followers, welcome! I hope you enjoy the stories offered here. 
          
          For those following Child of Calamity: I am switching the posting schedule to three times a week (Monday, Thursday, Saturday). I'm going to see if I can maintain this slightly increased schedule as the action starts to pick up. If, after two weeks it's too much for my schedule, I may got back to twice a week, but we'll see. 
          
          All the best! :)

It's past mid Feb already. Where has the time gone?  How is everyone doing? 
          
          There's now 16 chapters of Child Of Calamity posted, and I have at least a month more of my bi weekly scheduled loaded and ready. I hope you're all enjoying.  If anyone wants to leave me some thoughts on the first bit of the story, of the new characters and old ones in new roles, please do so! I am very curious as to what people are thinking and where they think the story is going to go! 
          
          Thank you all for your support, as always.

            Ahhh that makes me so happy! 
            
            You will begin to see our old friends more and more in the next few chapters. :D I hope you like how they've changed and matured ( or in the gaze of Zael, probably not matured too much... lol) 
            
            Thank  you for the support and enjoy!

@BksbyBkr I think I am doing alright. How are you? 
            
            I am enjoying it so far and looking forward to reading more. So far, I am mostly just excited for the future and curious about what is happening in the shadows. 
            
            I am wondering about some of the characters I haven't seen yet, like Verana (obviously, I guess), Byzan, the Vayana crew, and Xylo, just to mention a few. I'm looking forward to seeing how things with Treasa will develop. 
            
            It's hard to have many thoughts about the new characters yet. Though I do want to see Corvin and Kethan get dealt their karma. 
            
            I'm hesitant to make any predictions, as I have already been wrong multiple times (I thought Treasa was going to make it to the Wild, for example). But it sounds like there's some sorta bad magic going on, so maybe Vayana will come into play with that?
