It's been months. A long long couple of months. I am so sorry. It's pathetic that I couldn't update. But two new updates have dropped. One for Anatomy, one for Heartache <3
I will be honest, I've slipped into a bad depression. Like bad with really bad thoughts. I'm tired all the time, and I'm getting 1-2 hours of sleep per night. Seasonal depression is real. I read somewhere that depression hates a moving target, so be depressed while moving. Be depressed while lying in the sun. While taking a walk, while swimming, or running, and eventually you'll just be moving. Not moving while depressed. It's important to take time for yourself, it's important to get help and I'm still trying to get that message. It's okay to feel like shit. To have thoughts that consume you but you have to be better than them. You have to keep moving. You have to try. You have to stay here. Because this day will pass, just like the last one, and just like the next one. The world does keep spinning and so do you.
Again, I am very sorry for the wait.
But two updates are out and I'm working on maybe a little more tonight. Thank you for those who stuck with me. :)

Hello everyone!!! PLEASEEEEE click on this notification if you get it!!! Unfortunately, I am not coming to you with an update… It has come to my attention from multiple people that my work has been stolen. I do NOT take this lightly. At the start of all my books, I explicitly say my work is not to be copied, translated, or used in anything but my book. I am extremely hurt by this because my writing is my writing. I CAN 100 PERCENT assure you that the writing that you all have grown to love; it all comes from my wee little brain. I don't use AI, generative writing, or anything around that nature. The only internet I use is for fact checking myself, a translator for when someone speaks a different language in the book, and a grammar checker.

That being said, I do hope this person finds the imagination I have found to write their own stories because it's not only unfair to me that they are doing this but to the readers who are now questioning if I've been copying. (Which I for fucking sure haven't.) My imagination is mine to share with the world. Not for someone to swoop in and alter and then share. It is mine.
The book (which I should've put in the first paragraph.) is called: Growing Sideways by allixmaaee I hope you all take the time to report this and if you don't... Uh-- I don't really understand why you wouldn't so just do it.
I love you guys and would never be here without y'all.

While I don't think this is funny or cute in any way, I do have a big heart in my body and I do feel guitily for writing this but I also know in my heart that this is my book and my writing. while I didn't read the whole book, I skimmed through and chapters 8 and 9 are very very similar to Anatomy. ESPECIALLY when Eddie is ranting about Jo asking for a cat, Athena giving Jo her mother's address and Josie going to her mother's apartment building. And while the author changed up words, the dialogue is still mine and do not support this.
