As you might have noticed, I was not able to find a good place to put my story on. So, right now, I'm editing Aehlize and preparing part 2. I apologize for the delete scare. :(

I may come back with my tail behind my legs. :(  I could not find even one place with everything I need. 
          The good thing is, I re-checked grammar for Aehlize, so I will be unlocking the chapters little by little

Welp, Aehlize is gone. If you were interested in the story, follow me on social media for an update to know where it went. Do not be surprised if it's on a weird website. :D

Well, this is awkward.
          I've been MIA and these are my excuses: I have been busy promoting my new album (it didn't go well) and enjoying some downtime (after stressing at my day job). With that said, I haven't stopped writing. I have worked on three incoming stories for "It's a Strange World." Out of the three, I'm happy with one. I will upload it in the upcoming weeks. Also, I will rework and edit "Three Campfire Stories" with the revisions made by @KaraRedwing.  (Thank you so much!)
          
          I am currently editing "Aehlize: Track 2" and progressing on the later volumes with no major issues. The demos for the song bundle of "Track 2" are done and ready to be produced. 
          
          With that out of the way, here comes the awkward part:
          
          I always felt Wattpad is not the right home for "Aehlize." I decided to post it here for the potential of improving the story through the community; also because out of all sites, Wattpad had the advantage of multimedia support. However, the page format and editing tools worked against my vision and my patience.  TO add, almost a year later of my first publication, I came to terms with the harsh truth: my audience is not here. At least not "Aehlize's audience."
          
          So! I've decided to remove "Aehlize" from Wattpad. Not yet, but in the coming months.
          
          I believe every creator's dream is to connect with people by shaking their comfort zone; with people who can sing along songs of triumph, horror, and hurt. So as a creator, I will keep looking for those people.
          
          "It's a Strange World" found a home here. So it will remain here. Updates and edits will still be slow, but it will not go anywhere.
          
          Thank you for your support and understanding. Until next time.
          
          Always with love,
          Ib Raen

"Aehlize: Track 2" is currently being edited.

Hello world,
          I just want to make a quick update about what I've been up to these past few months. If you didn't know, I'm currently on a hiatus because I'm focused on my new album release but I want to reassure you I haven't stopped working on the follow-up books for "Aehlize."  
          I finished the structure of book 3 and still figuring out book 4.  So, it won't be long until I start editing book 2.
          
          Out of all the rough drafts, book 2 is my favorite for many reasons. I'm super excited about what's to come. The bad news: it may be a while before I start uploading. There's still so much to be done.  I will keep editing and uploading stories for "It's a Strange World," though as always, these updates are a bit slow.  
          
          Thank you for your support. We'll see each other soon. 
          
          Always with love, 
          Ib Raen.
