Hey guys! I'm back. I'm republishing this slowly as I write it, and I hope you enjoy. I know for awhile it may be disappointing that they are just chapters you've already read but at least I'm back and will be finishing it! https://www.wattpad.com/story/76163787

Alright, so I get why not everyone likes filler chapters, but they are very important. They may not seem important when you read them, but they're always important. At least the ones I write, and I honestly hate the bad rap they get. Not everything needs to be fast paced and action filles, you know? It isn't an actions story, and those so called "filler" chapters are providing foundation for future events. They shouldn't get as much of a bad rap. It's still a chapter the author put a lot of effort into and so having tons of readers just comment, oh this was a filler chapter and I don't see why this is necessary hurts because 1) the author knows what is necessary because they are the one writing the story and 2) without "filler" chapters, it would be action scene after action scene and not be realistic.
          
          And don't get me started on when people decide to themselves after reading three chapters if a character's actions are realistic or not. You are not the author, so keep your opinions to yourself regarding that. You haven't even read all of the chapters that are published.

@DatBookNerd I have a "filler" chapter in REM World that only depicts a flashback of Miles and Julian when they first met. It offers no new information to the readers at all and ,honestly, I'm not sure if it should technically be in the book. But I put it in there anyway, because I would personally want to see that if I was on the other side and reading. I agree with you. These chapters have their merits and they need no justification. I cannot understand why readers complain. Was the chapter not enjoyable? Is this something you didn't care to learn about the characters? If that's so, I believe readers could possibly notate that in their comments to help us understand their disdain for the chapter.

Heya guys!  I just posted the next chapter of Reading, Kissing, and Other Ways to Escape Unfixable Problems, and it's probably my favorite I've written. It was so much fun to write and I didn't want to finish it. 
          I would love if you guys went and read it and maybe voted and commented :)

sooo, I just finished the fifth chapter of Reading, Kissing, and Other Ways to Escape Unfixable Problems, but I'm unsure whether I should post it yet. If you do want the chapter up today, I would love if you replied to this post telling me :)

Hello, guys!
          Thank you for following and reading :) I really appreciate it.
          Right now, I have four chapters of Reading, Kissing, and Other Ways to Escape Unfixable Problems up and I am working on the fifth. In the meanwhile, I have decided to publish a shortish story I wrote a while ago. It's kind of odd and I cringe when I read it, but you all might like it. So keep a look out for that :)
          I love you all and am always open for chatting,
          Gretal
