Hello everyone! 
          
          I’m proud to announce a new Dorrow story that will be posted sometime today called “The Day of the Seventeen-Headed Dragon” that focuses on a newly-married Dorothy and Scarecrow and how Dorothy must brave and slay an ancient dragon. 
          
          The introduction and the first chapter will be released sometime today, hopefully by 6:00 PM MST.
          
          I’m thankful to all Oz fans who still read my fanfiction, even though I’ve been gone for a while!

Hey um...I know you don't know me but I'll get straight to the point I used to read this book of your's called 'Gale' and I was wondering why did you delete or stop writing the story and I'm sorry if I'm interrupting your daily days with some simple question but I really wanted to know and heck I really like your book 'Gale' and plus I'm a Legend of Oz Dorothy's return fan and I'm a Dorrow ever since I watched the movie 
          
          That's all I'm going to ask. Bye-bye have a great day!

Hello! I actually do reconsider your username from a little while back, and I have read your LoOz fanfiction! However, back to what you asked me…
            
            This is hard for me to admit, but the original draft of ‘Gale’ was a bit of learning curve for me. It wasn’t something I was proud of as a writer. Many people liked it though, but I just couldn’t continue it. The plot was such a mess, and I was trying to figure out how it all tied together to create a cohesive story. I didn’t understand the characters I was working with and what message I wanted to send. That was the main reason why I deleted it. 
            
            Many of the characters from the original draft are now gone from my universe (like Alexander and Victoria). They weren’t developed enough. I tried creating depth with OCs I didn’t even know the personality outside of a few key traits. I tried to work them into the story even after deleting ‘Gale’, but I couldn’t find a place for them unfortunately. They got scrapped. Jonathan and Charlotte remain, but in different ways. 
            
            I should have given everyone more of an explanation as to why it was discontinued. Part of it has to do with my own insecurities about writing. Over the years after deleting ‘Gale’, I’ve been working on my universe as a whole. It’s way better now than it was then. 
            
            However, I still have the original draft as a reminder of how much I’ve grown as a writer. And I do appreciate you reaching out to me. It’s nice to know someone still cares. :D

Just a quick update on the Tincrow story for the Oz Pride-Month Collab. It will actually be realized on July 8th at 6:30 PM MST, instead of today. I had an appointment today and not going to have the time to do the final edits. I hope this doesn't disappoint anyone! :D
