Hey everyone!
          	
          	Quite a big announcement today, but I hope that you will all understand.
          	
          	This might come a bit unexpectedly, but I wanted to let you all know that I’ll be officially moving my works over to Archive of Our Own (AO3). I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and after weighing things out, it just feels like the right direction to go in.
          	
          	Wattpad has been where I started. It’s where a lot of these stories were first shaped, and more importantly, it’s where so many of you discovered them — and me. I’m genuinely grateful for the support, the comments, the theories, the reactions... all of it. You’ve been part of this journey more than you probably realize. So thank you for that! <3
          	
          	That being said, AO3 offers a space that I think fits the kind of stories I want to keep telling — especially as things get a little darker, messier, and more experimental. It’s a place with fewer limitations on structure and creativity, and I want to take full advantage of that freedom.
          	
          	What you should know:
          	> All future updates will be posted only on AO3. Flicker's Book 2 currently has three chapters uploaded, though the third chapter has been reworked completely for a slower pace. However,  following a friend's request to read my fanfic (and my reluctance to give them my Wattpad :P), the entire Flicker Book 1's redux edition has already been uploaded on there. You may read it at any time!
          	
          	> Some other existing stories from here may be reworked or polished before going up there, depending on the amount of time I have. Or, they will just be copied and pasted.
          	
          	> This account will stay up for now, but it won’t be active.
          	
          	If you’d like to keep reading my work (and I really hope you do), you can find me on AO3 under: https://archiveofourown.org/users/dareal_rihan
          	
          	That’s where everything’s going to continue.
          	
          	Thanks for sticking with me so far. This isn’t really an ending — just a shift in setting. If you’re coming with me, I’ll see you there!

Chapters 8 and 9 of Flicker Book 2 have finally been published! This also ultimately finishes off the second arc. The schedule will most likely return to one chapter per week, but I will let you all know.
          
          Also, "Case 1 | END" has been rewritten to make it less confusing. If you didn't really understand that chapter, it may benefit to re-read now, because they will ALWAYS be very important to the story. I have also added a little bit of new content towards the end of the chapter that may explain Veronica's sudden change in character...

Heyo everyone!
          
          I have now rewritten the first 5 chapters of Flicker Book 1. You may notice some changes because the story is now much more well paced. While the initial Chapter 5 reached the second death AND voting, the remake Chapter 5 only covers the first death and voting. There are also extra chapters providing backstories to the characters that died in order to give the side characters more of an importance. 
          
          Enjoy the new chapters, guys! And I hope to soon work on Flicker Book 2 again.

Guess who's risen from the grave?!
          
          Apologies for the... very, VERY long hiatus. Along with what I mentioned before, exams and school overall was just a truly deadly combo and I really couldn't focus on Wattpad. BUT, summer holidays are coming up next week (do have exams in May despite it being summer holidays though, the pains of being in 11th grade) so I should have more time to finally focus on finishing whatever I've created on Wattpad, even if time is suuuuuper limited...
          
          I don't think I'll be able to finish Flicker AE before May (trust me, there's still a LOT of content to go through. You've seen nothing) BUT I will only take a month hiatus in May and return in June.
          
          I will also rewrite the entirety of Flicker Book 1 at some point because... yeah. Apart from the overall story everything about it kinda sucks. No character development (or personalities, for the matter. Their reactions are too casual, and I've always felt that they don't really feel 'human'), no structure, no language, nothing. So there's that.
          
          I'll also finally create the Fireworks book, as you may have seen I've already uploaded 3 chapters! This is on a lower priority since my main focus will be on Flicker, BUT once this Fireworks book is finished it'll be 'canon' and the series on YouTube will become irrelevant.
          
          Anyway that's about it for now, no more yapping. Glad to be back again y'all! Missed you guys

Flicker readers:
          
          Hey everyone, me again.
          
          I would like to announce some important news regarding the future of this series. To put it simply, it's not necessarily "discontinued" per se, but rather going on a hiatus for an indefinite amount of time.
          
          Honestly... I was thinking of other reasons since I didn't want to share the actual one, but I'd be lying if I said the main reason for this was thanks to studies. While that's partially true since I'm now in the final 2 years of school, it doesn't particularly limit me from taking a few hours out of my week to work on the book.
          
          The reasons are thanks to a lot more personal issues, more specifically, problems within the family; you can probably take a guess what I mean and be correct.
          
          So for now, until things hopefully get better, I will not be able to put my main focus on creating a story but rather must focus on what's going on; it's not something that can really be fixed, and there's not much I can do about it either, but  I have decided to focus more on being there and focusing on my personal life through these times. With all that's going on, I'm barely even getting time to revise what was taught in class, let alone work on a whole book. I'd had many amazing ideas for the series, but for now, I cannot put them into action.
          
          So, this Sunday, I will hopefully publish Chapter 5, and then afterwards, let you guys know whenever I'm ready to continue.
          
          I hope you all can understand and I deeply apologize for this.

@wholesome_fruitcake thank you! It's unfortunate but really I have no other choice. I wish you well on your own series and hope to see you again soon!

With the arrival of June, I will now officially start working on 'Flicker Another.' 
          
          You can expect Chapter 1 to release tomorrow, and the weekly release schedule will of course, be Sunday — though, it may change later on depending on a few circumstances.

Journey readers:
          
          The chapter release schedule has been changed. It's now one chapter every day, at 7 PM IST. The story will have a total of 14 chapters, two different endings (one canon and one bad), an epilogue and one extra chapter. Expect the book to end at around the 24th or 25th!
