Hey, sorry to bother you, but one of my stories recently got removed for "sexually explicit content" which confuses me since 1. I know your stories contain "sexually explicit content" and I have other stories which have not been removed which contain "sexually explicit content". 
          
          Any idea why that 1 story gave Wattpad problems when yours and my other one didn't?

Gt_Trashbag

@Laylabelle97 maybe someone reported it? Thats the only reason i can think it got removed because there are worse things to read here on wattpad than some s-ex-y scenes

The writer's block is REAL
          
          The shuddles re-write is going to take years longer than the other two 
          
          Slowly but surely working on the next chapter
          Literally think about it every other day but im more interesting in drawing Smiling Critters from Poppy Playtime than HTF atm
          
          I promise I've not abandoned the project
          Thanks for your patience!

@Laylabelle97  :0 oh wow! That sounds exciting. Message me on  sky or twitter to discuss what it is you'd like to get from me on this possible collaboration. It'll be easier to keep track of messages since i dont get notifs on wattpad

@Laylabelle97 @gt_Trashbag hey, I am looking to eventually (once I aint unemployed no more) put together a team to help me with working on Coming To The Lavender. It's such a big project and it's too intimidating working on it all by myself. I was wondering if you would be interested in doing freelance work for me once I can afford it again. It would be really fun (at least in theory) for us to get to work together.

@Gt_Trashbag In my experience, it is best to allow one's mind to rest rather than push yourself. Writer's block is usually your brain telling you it wants a break and to focus on something else. I love writing Coming To The Lavender, but because it is such a big project, it's really fun when I get to work on short stories, and it helps re-energize me to go back to my favorite comic

Still alive
          Got another Shuddles chapter cooking
          Almost done
          
          Also very heavily ready to write a miraculous ladybug htf au. Already working on the redesigns so i'll post what i have so far on here later
          
          Thanks for the love and support even if i don't reply to comments because im an awkward bean that never knows what to say without being the biggest cringe lord in existence <3

Not dead
          
          Writing a better story and trying to depict mental health disorders/illnesses are hard
          
          Plus im drawing a lot of smiling critters and they've taken hold of my very being and my motivation to write is very low
          
          But ive got a timeline to finish Shuddles Re-Write before summer 2025 for sure 

Laylabelle97

@Gt_Trashbag well, yeah, making something really well takes a hell of a lot more work than just doing whatever ya feel like and just letting the first draft be good

Gt_Trashbag

And now
          All of my focus shall go on the Lonely Rabbit and Broken Thief re-write owo

Gt_Trashbag

@britishzoe1 Thank you so much! Its definitely been a wild ride. When im actually putting in more effort, writing takes me forever and i hate it XD but the end result is better for myself and the others who read my previous trash

Wattpad should let there be an art posting feature on here
          Then I wouldn’t need to update chapters in a book, y’all could just scroll through here to see the fanart I’ve been doing. It would be easier since I forget to share my art here

I've started shuddles re-write draft
          I'll start posting that in tandem with the Thief and the Hero re-write when I finally do the lifty and shifty big fight like in the OG!draft cause that's the one part of the book that really matters before y'all can see how the new re-write starts/goes
          
          Honestly the chapters after the fight in TTH will be more developing LiftDont as a couple and as separate people so I can start posting TLRABT re-write once I get that out of the way
          
          Y'all aren't ready for how dark/messed up it is compared to the OG draft btw. Like I'm going to make these characters hurt more than I did the first time around
          
          A lot more explicit child abuse scenes (well not too explicit i have my limits) and depressive suicidal stuff that will come out of shifty AND cuddles 
          
          This third book is going to be DARK and maybe probably not for the faint of heart
          
          So if the first draft of the third book was hurtful, this re-write is going to be worse before it gets better

Gt_Trashbag

@valqyri XD oh trust me, this is going to hurt me more to write it than to read it because I'm going to TRAUMATIZE these poor boys more than I did the first time

          With class and work on top of that, you guys will be delayed on chapters for the re-write
