This is like my third time typing this out because holy heck wattpad hates me right now fml 
          	Basically, to sum it all up, I saaaaad like all the time. More than I’m happy at least and that’s really hard. But writing makes me happy. You all make me happy every time I see a comment on my story. But Writing hard. Words hard. Editing hard. I’m too much of a perfectionist not to reread my chapters 10+ times before I post them because of that which makes it an even longer process than I mean it to be. Plus I’m working on like four things at once atm because there are so many fics I wish we had in this fandom and they are no. where. to. be. seen. So here I am trying to be that provider.

Well, I think writing what you’re passionate about will probably trigger ideas or something for other stories?
          	  For me it’s like I start writing the randomest stuff and then I get into this setting where I just keep writing, although I think it varies from person to person 
          	  I ALSO WANT TO SEE SOME HYUNMINSUNG

I’m realizing all this replies show up in reverse so start from the bottom then work your way up if you wanna read everything in order.

Not to mention the fact that I like need some more hyunminsung up in the fandom. Like people. Jisung and Hyunjin are both Minho’s brats and no one can tell me otherwise. Please give me ficcccs. I am begging y’all. I’ve already gotten like 10,000 words into a fic on that, too, but idk how I wanna format the entire story yet so that’s not any where near getting published yet.

Hi, helloo!
          I was wondering if you planned on updating Briardale soon.
          I've really enjoyed the story so far!
          Take care and have a nice day/night!

I’m actually working on chapter 12 right now ☺️ if things go well I should update sometime in the next few weeks. It’s a bit of a process to write and then my beta reader also needs to find time in her schedule. Thank you for the support

Hello! 
          I came back after a long while to see what stories I had on my list that I needed to finish when I came across yours! Briardale is a fun read and I enjoyed it all over again! I remember when I first came across this story and how excited I was for it. It looked promising! The bit that you have I greatly enjoyed! I was wondering if you were planning on continuing with the story? I would love to keep reading more. Will an update be coming? 

DevinDodson1

Yes I am planning on continuing briardale. It’s just a slow going process at the moment. Stay tuned for more!

Hi ~ First off happy new year ! I hope you’re doing alright. 
          I just wanted to know when your story about the Gifted was going to be published again. I read that your editor was going to continue it so can I maybe have their acc pls? 
          
          

DevinDodson1

Ah she hasn’t started continuing it yet because I haven’t written up the outline for how the rest of the story is supposed to go, so that’s my fault. When she does I will add a chapter to my story and link whatever account she decides to use

Hey I have no idea what’s going on in your life so I probably shouldn’t complain about you not updating (unless you’re dead,then it’s acceptable) but I really really loved both of your stories and was really hoping you could continue them I know the problem with wo*jin is frustrating but I‘m just saying if you could tell us or me about your life it would make me and/or us really happy. I was really excited about you having a schedule where you updated like twice a week or something and I’m hoping you’re ok .Although as I‘m writing this it sounds annoying (sorry I ramble waaaaaay to much)

grousome_goose

hey,thanks for replying so quickly:)It’s funny I didn’t actually mean to post it cause i’m a big scaredy-cat and also it never worked for the other storys but I’m really glad I did I’m happy you’re still ok(I don’t know why but I completely freaked out when I saw the last time you posted)I hope you feel better and have some you time ,I’m overdramatic  but I kinda know what you mean by the no motivation .Anyway glad you are ok?
            Hope you do get some motivation and feel better ;)

Hey, it’s okay to be curious. Idk which of my books you read but i go into my life a lot in the a/n of The Gifted Few. Main reasons I suck at updating are 1) i go to a military college and am extremely busy because of it 2) I struggle with depression and a big part of that is my general lack of motivation for anything  3) the woojin situation  and then 4) I get different moods where I wanna work on different projects and it’s hard for me to focus on the others while I do that 
            I really try and write whenever I can though, it just might not seem as much since I’ve been working on something I actually want to finish all of before I publish. I haven’t completely given up on these babies just yet. I’m really passionate about Briardale because I love that story concept so much and right now I’m working on replacing Woojin’s character for another one, so not forgotten. The gifted few is harder for me to to write because, personally, I don’t think it’s actually that good if I’m being 100% honest and it’s hard for me to look at sometimes  but people love it so I am trying, but I still don’t totally know what I want to do with that fic. Hope that clears things up

          Can’t wait to thank y’all properly in my long af A/N

Hey guys! Just thought I would give those of you interested an update. It is taking me longer than expected to get this next chapter out because I last minutes agreed to help a friend move out of her dorm at her university which was an 8 hour drive from where we live. It was originally supposed to be a three day trip, but then we ran into some car difficulties and it turned into a four day trip. That left me four days behind on writing, rereading for clarity, and editing. 
            Sorry >.<
            See you soon though!
