Hey there!
          I'm officially taking "There's No Navigation That Tells You How To Survive a Car Crash" down from Wattpad. It will become an AO3 exclusive because it has become such a massive fic that I don't even want to think about posting on two platforms. You can find me on AO3 under the same name or by the link in my bio. 
          
          Sorry to the few people who were reading it on here (I don't think there are many people following along with it on Wattpad though), I hope I'll see you on AO3 in "Turn Around, When Possible" :)

Happy to announce:
          two brand new one shots were added to my one shot collection!
          One being a Sk8 The Infinity Trans Langa AU, and the other being a Naruto fic written from a randomly generated prompt :)

Hey!
          
          As you guys know I'm an author who loves to write and read books that are "different". Stories that think outside the boxes that many of the books overflowing the store's shelves have created. This includes having a really diverse set of characters, meaning I do often write characters that fall outside of my own expierences. Sometimes I'm stuck wondering how people from that specific audience would like to see me writing diverse characters. Are there things I should/shouldn't do? Are there things that are a complete no-go?
          
          I'm also just really curious how people's expierences and lives have an influence on their view on what is and isn't acceptable. On top of that it would really help me see how people would like to see me tackeling writing stories that are what I would love to write and read, ideas that are out of the box, without upsetting anyone in the process :)
          
          So, if you end up filling out a few questions in the link below, thank you so much!!

Hey There!
          
          As promised, a LONG WHILE BACK I would return to posting "Turn Around, When Possible". I was not able to keep up with posting each and every week, with my busy schedule. But since I didn't want to keep it AO3 exclusive for the people who prefer reading on Wattpad, and I have everything of the first part posted on AO3, I took the time to post the entire first part on Wattpad today!!!
          
          The second part will be added once that one's completely (or halfway, I'll see) posted on AO3. Up to then, enjoy the first part of a multipart Haikyuu series "There's No Navigation To Tell You How To Survive A Car Crash"

Hello,
          
          for now, I will make "Turn Around, When Possible" a AO3 exclusive, since I am not planning on trying to catch up on these chapters on Wattpad for another while. I will be deleting it on here to stop risking drawing people in and disappointing them with a story that has been put to a hiatus on Wattpad.
          
          Again, if you feel like reading on, head to my AO3 account. It's free and updated on there!

Hey,
          I feel like I keep apologising nonestop lately, but I really feel like I owe you another one; I have NOT been keeping up with posting "turn around, if possible" yet again. I think I'm two chapters behind on my AO3 posting schedule and I can't get myself to catch up for a couple of reasons, many of which feel like stupid reasons if you'd ask me. But still-
          
          It's been a REALLY busy and tough couple of weeks and I won't bother you with the details, but in short: my grandpa died and now most of my time goes to either my study and internship and helping my mom cleaning out my grandpa's house. This plays a part in my immense lack of motivation to post the same chapter on two media and since my AO3 account is my most visited one, this gets priority over Wattpad.
          
          I probably will catch up in a while, for my Wattpad-only readers, but I think the story is going to go on hiatus ON Wattpad ONLY for a little while. Until I'm in a better place time-wise and mental-health-wise and I find the time and motivation to upload the chapters I'm behind on.
          
          Therefor I want to invite you to visit my AO3 instead; read and enjoy "Turn Around, When Possible" on there with a weekly chapter and in all its glory!
          
          I hope you'll be understanding of my situation; thank you.

Hey. I'm so so sorry that I failed to post a chapter of "Turn Around, If Possible" last Sunday/Monday. It had been an extremely tough Sunday as we suddenly got a call that my grandfather fell. My mom headed there and was supposed to sleep at his home to keep an eye on him, but instead he was brought to the hospital unable to walk and with a huge delirium(he had that before, 3 years ago and that's how we found out he's got dementia). I visited yesterday evening and it was a harsh reality... He's still in that delirium and my mother's afraid that he won't be getting back to how he was again. So... it was a tough Sunday.
          
          On the contrary Monday I didn't have any time to post because of a more fun reason; my internship has started and I am very excited to announce that that is going amazingly! As some of you know, I'm in my final year of studying to become a teacher's assistant, and this year I've got kids of 8-9-10 years old. It's an amazing class, a kind team of teachers and I've got two great mentors. 
          I'm also going to see if I can organize a number of 3 writing classes for the kids, because I need to give them a creative assignment for one of my college exams, and I really want to give writing classes hehehe.
          
          Yup.. it's been a bittersweet week. Hoping this following week will be a little better. But anyway, I posted last week's chapter just now, and I'll see if I can post this week's chapter once it's also been posted on AO3 :)

Not related to my writing but---
          GUESS WHO PICKED UP TWO BABY BUNNIES YESTERDAY!!!
          
          Yesterday, we finally got to pick up our newest family members; Ginko and Chibi.
          They're brother and sister, both a mix of a dwarf lop and a flemish giant, and both BIG CUDDLE BUTTS!
          Ginko's the female, she's got lop ears and the softest chinchilla grey floof. Chibi's the male and clearly the bigger of the two, he's got HUGE upright ears and he's completely white apart from a tiny grey patch on the tip of his nose. 
          They immediately wanted to cuddle up to us when they got home and the massive amount of zoomies and binkies proofed that they couldn't be happier with their new home :)

Hello!!!
          I just uploaded the 4 first chapters of "Turn Around, When Possible" my newest Haikyuu Survival fic. I am going to try posting every Sunday, just like I do on AO3, though it could be a bit delayed from time to time, since I am not as active on Wattpad as I am on AO3. I just wanted to also make this fic accesable for you guys, the people who follow me on Wattpad :)
          
          If you are going to read it, I really hope you like it!!!
