2025. A year that was pretty lacklustre on my side. BUT, I've seen plenty of loved ones fighting through this year and emerging from that hassle with their head held up high! And that includes so, so many of y'all. Yes. You there, the person reading this. I'm infinitely proud of you. 
          
          With that said, I hope that 2026 brings plenty of creativity, happiness and peace in your life! And if you end up just surviving through this year, that's absolutely fine! At least you survived! So, I love you all, and с новым годом, frohes Neues, gelukkig nieuwjaar, feliz año nuevo, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU! ❤️❤️

The way I scheduled a chapter on frigging Christmas Day lol, I swear that wasn't planned 
          
          
          ANYWAY, IF YOU CELEBRATE, MERRY CRISMUH

I'M ALIIIIIIIVE, BACK FROM THE DEAD, BISHESSSS
          
          hoi I'm alive xD No, seriously. I am. I am back. Kind of. I edited something from long ago that really needed some improvements... 
          
          Okay, that doesn't narrow it down, all my stuff needs improvements. I mean my fantasy adventure book. And it entails: 
          Better text formatting (meaning that multiple people will no longer speak in the same paragraph)
          Some languages are a bit more fleshed out to make it more fantasy-like (translations given at the end of a paragraph) 
          Lore-accurate naming (pronounciation of relevant and difficult-to-pronounce names also given at the end of a paragraph)
          Writing is not as stale (hopefully in that case...)
          
          So, link here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/300733899-chronicles-of-the-templar-ongoing , and updates be coming every Thursday morning (author's note at the beginning excluded)! Read it when you want, if you want, and if you don't, we'll probably see each other on whatever else I'll do next! CIAO! 
          
          
          
          
          
          
          WOO FOOK YEAH IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK POP THE CHAMPAGNE- oh y'all are still here... also if you see this message a second time, the link did not work for some reason. Okay, bye.

You've left us! That is unfair! 

@Fr0staX You're still not back?

@Fr0staX Thought you'd never return. Got your friend worried. 

Hi, FrostaX. Miss you old friend. 

Random update; I'm not dead. Yet. Sadly. My muse just left me for a bit. Speaking of my muse having left me, you might've noticed that Shadows of Hearts has been unpublished. And if you haven't...yeah, it's been unpublished for the time being. It'll come back, I'll work on it and the sequels someday, don't worry! 
          
          You might've noticed that only my completed books and those marked 'on pause' remain. Doesn't mean that I'm not working on something though, Undercover Illoyality coming soon, but I wanna finish the drafts and then release it chapter by chapter, day by day (or week by week)! (Hyperfocus pls stay with me or istg-) 
          
          Yeah. Just wanted to give y'all a lil update. I'm not dead, the next book update will come... someday. In half a year at most, probably lol. Love y'all!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAYYYYY! 
          
          and if you don't celebrate it/don't have a valentine...Happy day lol, love y'all!

(tell me why I'm actually nervous about posting this someone rip this phone out of my hand before I hit send) 
          
          Sooo... I did a thing. I jumped on the story playlist bandwagon, starting with Love - A Sonnet. If you're reading it rn, or want to give it a read someday, I added it to the author's note at the beginning, but I'll also put a link here. It consists of so much angsty music though (Linkin Park, Citizen Soldier, Tokio Hotel etc). Like E = angst². Which kinda makes sense, given the story. Yeah. Bye. Enjoy if you wanna!
