Hey guys!
          	So I know I keep telling you how many stories I'm currently working on. (I think I'm up to 16 or 18 now.) Gah, I can't help it! An idea pops into my head and I think "I've got to start writing this before I forget it!" and then BAM I'm working on a new story. It's truly some organized chaos on this writer's desktop, trust me! I am hoping to get back to updating regularly now that I have a lot of finished chapters. As for new stories, I have to have 6 finished chapters before I start posting them to make sure I am enjoying writing it and to have a bit of a cushion if the story is more popular than I think it's going to be. (I need more chapters saved if the story has multiple points of view.) 
          	I've been stepping outside my writing bubble recently. I've been working with fandoms I didn't even want to poke with a stick in fear of looking inexperienced, but I've done some research and I'm ready to take that first step. I've been working with themes that give me anxiety that I had been avoiding the past few years because the thought of them sent me into panic attacks. I feel like I'm growing, or at least learning more than where I was a few years after I started writing. 
          	I'll let you in on a little secret: when I first started writing, I was doing script-style writing only. I didn't even cross into story format 2 years later when I got an idea for Not Another Cinderella Story. It's one of the few I've actually pushed through enough to finish. But hopefully soon I'll be able to get myself unstuck from behind this writing block wall I'm trapped behind and be able to finish Happy Birthday To Me. I would feel very accomplished if I could finish that one. 
          	
          	As for my followers, I thank you for sticking around this long. I've never been very good at anything, but when you guys like the words I somehow manage to put together to create a story it brings my heart joy. It's not an easy thing to accomplish when it seems you're going underappreciated.

So I have been LOW KEY been working on like *coughcough* 30 stories! Yikes! Then I realized I was working on THIRTY different stories and picked out the TEN stories I liked the best. So now I'm working on FOURTEEN stories. *headdesk* The 4 new ones aren't even from the original 30. They're new stories. Oye.
          
          When I start a new story I like to have the first 6 chapters written because usually around there is when I decide if I'm going to keep the story or not. So some of the new stories take a little while to get up to 6 chapters. 
          
          Don't worry, most of the stories I'm working on now made the 10 stories cut!
          -Secrets: Destiny Islands
          -Good Luck Charm
          -Happy Birthday To Me
          -After John Tucker Died 
          All Made The Cut! 
          
          If you're missing a story I'm not currently working on let me know! I don't mind pulling out 1-2 from my archives to continue working on! (Plus I might have a few already written chapters already stashed away!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME.
          I know I've mentioned this before, but the ending of this story is in sight! At the moment I've written out the way I want it to end and I'm just working my way toward it. It's not quite a straight shot because there's still a few things I need to work in there. There's a few people you haven't met yet that need to be introduced. Then when I finish it will set it up just right for a SEQUAL! Are you ready for it? I'm not. Lol. I've also been considering a SPIN-OFF that I wouldn't start until after I finish HB2M. Would you like a spin-off? 
          
          Please check out my newest story GOOD LUCK CHARM! I am working so hard on it and I don't want to see it flop. If you like teen romance you'll love this!

TWO UPDATES! I SAY, TWO UPDATES AH HA HA! *I say as I channel the Count from Sesame Street* It's a long-time running inside joke... 
          Two updates in about 3 weeks, I believe? Yeah! It's not the every 2 weeks I promised, but it's close. I'm still trying to find a schedule groove here and last Sunday didn't have a time slot open for me. Who know the right time slot would come at 2am on Halloween morning? I certainly didn't. 
          So I was looking at the chapters for stories I'm ready to update and most of them are for HB2M and 8Gs, but I'm not going to overload my readers with them.  I'll try my best to sprinkle them in between my KH/FF stories unless asked otherwise by those stories' readers. Chapters I still have to be posted are from the stories AJTD, S:DI, and BHC. I am also close to starting a new KH/FF story, but I still need to write one more chapter for it. I like to have a 5 chapter cushion for new stories for 2 reasons: 1. To make sure I am enjoying writing the story. Usually 5 chapters in I can tell if I like writing it or if I think it's a load of crap. and 2. If I have a 5 chapter cushion, when the readers demand another update asap I don't feel rushed. 
          
          
          Well, that's all for now. Hopefully I'll be able to make the 2 week deadline by the next update. *fingers crossed*

NEW UPDATE IS OUT! I REPEAT, A NEW UPDATE IS OUT! Get excited, because I have decided to come back from my hiatus and I am going to start updating every weekend or every other weekend! As of right now there is a new chapter for After John Tucker Died that is begging to be red, voted on, and commented on! Chapters for existing stories are soon to be posted in the coming weeks as new stories are waiting to be unveiled! 
          
          Thank you for sticking with me this long. After a tragic event in November of 2016 I didn't feel like updating for the longest time. But the other day I was thinking about the one I lost and I realized they wouldn't want me to stop making my updates. They would want to see as much content as I could get out there. 
          
          The best part about my updating is for the past 2 years I have still been writing. I didn't stop putting the pen to paper, I didn't stop letting my ideas flow out of me. I continued my stories and added several chapters to many of the stories I have out right now. So there won't be any lag in my getting on. Sure, some stories will have more updates than others, but as many writers know sometimes you get stuck on some stories and eventually one day everything just seems to click into place and you have a million ideas for it!
          
          So thanks again for sticking with me all this time. I am so happy to push forward and give you all the updates you have been waiting for.

I'm not very sure what's happening. I've bookmarked my profile for easy access, but every time I click on it, it tells me there is a 404 error and then I have to route myself to my lookup which takes a slow journey and crumbles my last patient nerve. Is anyone else having this problem?
