Hey Hailey!
First off, I love your writing, so go and and do the edits.. I know you had planned it long back, but we still have faith in you.
As a binge reader who started with the IALWAI series about a week ago and is already done with book 2, I can tell you that it's not such a bad piece of work. I mean, yes, it definitely needs some edits, but the plot is really fine. And I could actually see you and your experiences growing through your writing as well. It just shows how much of your soul you put into everything you write. And this is truly beautiful.
Having said all of these things, I can completely understand if you are not in that position to start writing this again. Because, we all understand, life happens. But please give us readers some clarity on the same if you're going to complete this story or not, because as an avid reader, it's not the late updates that take us away from you, it's the lack of clarity and ownership.
I have seen that you posted about 12 chapters of the third book on Wattpad and have posted almost 25 on Patreon.. I wanted to request that the least you could do is post those remaining chapters here on Wattpad as well, and give us a small blurb type thing or summary of how the story ends, so that is can do justice to us readers as well.
I know you like to read too and you understand how big of a turnoff it is when an interesting story like yours is just left in between..
I hope you understand where me and all my fellow readers are coming from and can do just a bit to make this a softer blow for us as well.
Anyway, whatever you decide to do, we're with you on it. We have your back.
Wish you the very best!!
