Me, not having uploaded in 2 months: Oh my god why chapter is taking forever to finish 
          
          Also me, finishing a chapter 6 times the length of a normal one: ...oh, that's why

hey, thanks for motivating/reminding me to upload. Still don't have a social media started up yet. Again, not sure when to start. Plus, my midyear exams start in a week, so I need to focus on those anyway. Probably means I won't be able to upload much in June

I wouldn't know where to start with a social media or what to post tbh, so I never really made one

@ChiletaWrites Again, I'm sorry for making you wait. Things got pretty chaotic on my side of the world, but I won't bore you with the details. I can't promise that I won't go into another hiatus, but if I continue to find little bursts of motivation to write and complete chapters more often, like I did today, then I might finally get back into the swing of writing like how I used to when I was writing book 1 and some of my other stories. 
          
          To answer your question, no I dont yet

So...this year's been off to a busy start. 
          
          I'll admit, my upload schedule in 2024 was absolutely abysmal (largely due to burnout and lack of motivation, which is something a lot of my readers likely already know). So I set a goal for myself that, for 3 out of the 4 stories I'm currently working on right now, I'll be uploading monthly, while Elementals will be uploaded either once every week or once every 2 weeks. Or whenever I feel like it.
          
          However... January's been off to a really busy start, with me starting my last year of highschool and pouring more into my studies than ever to get into a good university. 
          
          And I haven't uploaded a single chapter. At all. 
          
          To my Beyond Worlds, Springlocked and White Wolf readers, I've already gotten started on this month's chapters for each of them and should have them all out by early Feb. All I need is a little time to get my shit together. And for my Elementals readers, you'll have to be a little more patient. This newest chapter is really wrecking my ass right now, so I'm not sure when exactly I'll be able to upload it. Hopefully soon, then I can get started on the next one as soon as I do. 
          
          Anyway, I'm sorry for not uploading this month. As I said, I've been busy and couldn't find the time or energy. But I promise, I'll get those chapters to you all ASAP. Thanks for your patience. 

Good question. 
          
          You see, the Elementals series is meant to have 10 books by the end of its run. Maybe 11 if I feel like it. When I made the first covers for Elementals all I had was the 1 cover image that I just edited and added the title of the book on, and I figured that doing that for al 10 books would feel way too repetitive, despite the changes I made to each cover depending on the plot of the book. So I decided to redo them. 
          
          That and book 2's cover just felt off and I wanted it to feature the main villain more than it did Alex. 
          
          (There's also something that happens later that warrants a darker cover, but I'm not gonna spoil it for ya)
          
          If the cover is off-putting, then I'm sorry. But for now, it's here to stay.

It has been a hot minute since I announced anything, and with school over for the term, I feel I should update everyone. If you're not interested then feel free to skip.
          
          Story updates have been slow. Writer's block has been a pain these past couple of months and I feel even more sluggish with the chapters Ive been uploading lately. I do still wanna write tho, and with all this free time I now suddenly have, don't be too surprised when I update all my books at once in the coming week. 
          
          My academics improved since last term and that's given me a confidence boost and a whole lot of motivation to just...do stuff. Honestly, it feels great, and I hope that I can keep this energy up with my final exams right around the corner. 
          
          My mental health is getting better. Slowly, but surely, I've been feeling less drained emotionally and, lately, more satisfied with the way that I'm feeling or the things I accomplished during the day. I've still got a long way to go, but it's improving. 
          
          Not much else has really been going on in my life; some improvements, some areas that need improvement, and the occasional fluctuations in motivation that make my upload schedule an absolute mess. That's one thing that probably won't change in the near future, but I'm nothing if not consistent in my inconsistency, I suppose.
          
          That was just a little update for anyone wondering. Stay safe, happy and healthy as you can, and keep reading. 

I don't spend enough time on this app as I should. Anyone have any story recommendations to keep me hooked on here for longer?

Hi everyone! 
          
          I have an announcement to all my Elementals readers. I'm gonna be taking a small break from the series for a bit to focus on other works I've published here on Wattpad. If you want to check those out, feel free to. 
          
          And to all my Springlocked readers, rest assured, I haven't abandoned you. I'm currently brainstorming a crap ton for the newest chapter. I've just been incredibly busy for the last few months, but I'm hoping to take it easy over the holiday season. 
          
          Happy holidays everyone, stay safe, take care and remember to stay hydrated ;⁠-⁠)

To my Elementals readers, word of warning, next chapter's gonna be a pretty BIG one. It's currently in the works, but oh my god, it's crazy [by my standards at least]. I cannot wait to publish it.
