Hi everyone,
Hope you're all doing well during these trying times.
I apologize to those who had to wait months to see their submission posted in BULLIED.
Since BULLIED hadn't received any submissions for nearly a year, I stopped checking for new entries. But I'm glad I finally checked (though I'm sad that more people have stories to share).
Thank you for sharing. ♥️

I just watched a tik tok that reminded me of The Suit War, but I couldn’t remember the name at first, but finally found it! I just wanna say it’s been years since I read it, but I will never forget it nor how much I loved it! Are you getting it published anytime soon?? I’d love to read the revised version!! Great work on it!

Wow, thank you so much, @DestinysCall !!!! That's so sweet of you to say! :D I hope to get TSW published one day (I've made extensive revisions on it), I just don't know when. I promise to keep fans in the loop if/when it happens though! Thanks again! :) (Oh, and what tik tok was it? I'd like to watch it!)

Hi everyone!
Long time no talk! Sorry about that; I've been crazy busy with school. But rest assured, I am still writing when I can!
Unfortunately I was recently informed by my publisher that it will be closing its doors the end of February. I just wanted to let you all know, because that means the last day you can purchase ROSES ARE RED is February 28th, 2020! The Amazon and Barnes&Noble links are on my profile page, but let me know if you need assistance finding them!
Since I will regain the rights to my work, I may look into getting it published elsewhere in the future. But I have no immediate plans to do so, since right now I am focused on a brand new project.
Thank you all for your support! And I hope to have news to share with you about my traditional publishing journey in the future!
TL;DR: The last day you can buy ROSES ARE RED for the unforeseeable future is February 28th, 2020.

Just wanted to say that I’ve read The Suit War years ago in 2016 and I have reread it multiple times since and up until now it’s still my absolute favorite!

Hi

Just finished editing the latest draft of The Suit War, and it went from 128,000 words to 82,000 words. I'm still not sure how I cut so many words, but I feel like I've become a better, more succinct writer through all these rounds of edits. :)
I want to thank ALL OF YOU, because your continued support of TSW (draft 1) pushes me to keep working hard. Hopefully my agent loves it and I can share the new-and-improved story with you all soon! <3

To put it into perspective, TSW has gone from around 50,000 words (the draft posted on wattpad), to 109,000 words (the draft that led me to signing with my agent), to 128,000 words (the draft after my first round of edits), to 82,000 words (the most recent draft, after many outline rewrites, scene additions/deletions, and chapter additions/deletions).
