Dex, I love you. But stop breaking my heart. Please, I can't cope with you.

You know when you read over what you've written and just think "girl, are you okay? Maybe you should go outside in the sunlight for a while, maybe hug a tree or something" ?? Yeah, that's me after reading what I wrote yesterday

@Sillybeanns It's been a rollercoaster of a chapter, but it's written. It's a slightly longer one than the others (I think) but not as long as some of the later Charmer chapters haha. 6000+ words written today (I wrote a little bit through the week, so this is just todays contribution), some tears shed and double heartache later (for each of my boys) and the chapter is done. It's almost 3am here, I'm going to bed. Edits can wait haha

Are you able to enable text to speech manually on your stories?

            Ouuuu I’ll look into the app this. That’s a good idea!

@Sillybeanns I don't think this platform offers it as an option, but I think you can use other apps to do it. I looked into it a while ago but my tired pea brain couldn't figure it out properly haha

            I meant for the entire book.  
            
            Hmmm the mystery got even bigger. I didn’t know that the feature could be turned on for individual chapters. 
            
            I ask because my eyes get tired, and with text to speech the book is essentially an audiobook.

Hey.
          
          I was thinking. I hope you never feel pressured to drop chapters. Finishing up at 3 am is insane especially if you work or go to school, or both. 
          
          Hope you are able to function properly through your days. Sleep is important, Chan 2.0.

            I laughed so hard at this. I said what the hell is pllessonbi?!? 
            
            3-4 hours is madness. I’m glad to know you are doing better than before. <3
            
            Question: 
            
            Do you friends and family know you write? If so, have they read your work? If not, why? And do they wonder what you are writing?

@Sillybeanns making up my own language now haha.
            
            Not many people know I wrote, only a select few. I've only shared it with really close friends that are into kpop and "get it" if you know what I mean. It was kind of embarrassing at first because of those 18+ scenes (ahem) but I really enjoy getting the honest feedback and hearing people's reactions to the story.  There's nobody with me to question what I'm writing when I write haha and I don't write when I'm with people because I CBA trying to explain it to them haha

          “Is there anything here you like?” I asked him softly, standing next to him and trying to sound calm as I offered him a friendly smile, even though my heart was pounding. Waves of nervous energy pulsed through my veins, making me feel slightly queasy. God, why am I so nervous?
          
          “Why? Are you going to try to take that from me too if I say yes?” he replied harshly.
          
          Okay. Maybe he's still mad. Shit.

Jenfaroo

You ever have too many ideas in your head that all want to come out at the same time, leaving you unsure of what to focus on or work on first? Yeah, that's me right now, trying to figure out if I want to write more of Unrequited or work on the alternate version of Charmer.....
          
          I have one new chapter of Unrequited written already, just sat waiting ready to drop....
          
          I'll be writing again this weekend, so I guess I'll see which story speaks to me the most... Hopefully they both stop shouting at the same time haha.
          
          I promise I will get some stuff out for you guys soon. I ideally want to write myself a couple of chapters ahead before I give you anything. Unless you are desperate for an update.....
          
          Anyway, hope you are all well and keeping safe. Does anyone have any upcoming concerts? Been to  any recently you want to share?

insanekatyakun

@Jenfaroo so excited. i wasn't expecting them to go on tour again so quickly after their last one. plus the ATL concert is 3 days after my birthday. and we get a comeback that i'll get to hear live. i'll be dead afterwards. but i will die happy. Mingi is my love, which means i get Yunho as well. i'll definitely let you know how much you need to prep your coffin ^_^

Jenfaroo

@insanekatyakun OMG I am so jealous! I hope Ateez come back to the UK next year for this tour. I saw them three times this year ( in 4 days haha). Are you excited for the comeback? I think we are going to be killed off. I almost choked where I saw the  teaser poster for Lemon Drop (Seonghwa is one of my bias line, along with Hongjoong and Mingi and Yunho are my wreckers). You'll have to tell me without spoiling too much how much I need to brace myself haha.

@Jenfaroo i'm seeing Ateez next month. i'm so very excited. i wish i could see SKZ again, but they only did 1 show in ATL and i can't afford to travel to the other shows. next time, tho

Hi lovelies!
          
          I've been re-reading through the final chapters of charmer and I've made a few tweaks, so if you have noticed any notifications on the later chapters, don't worry. It's mainly correcting some grammar errors (ahem ,who is Kait?).
          
          I'll be writing again this weekend, but I don't know what to work on, the Charmer alternate ending or Unrequited. I have ideas for both. I don't know how some authors on here can work on multiple stories at once. My tiny brain can only handle so much at once haha.
          
          Maybe help a girl out and let me know what you want first?

Jenfaroo

@Sillybeanns it does and it doesn't. I. One way it helps me to keep on track with what I want to write and keep everything in the same ..  tone I guess. But on the other hand, yeah it probably does slow me down

            You’re funny, girly pop. I wish I had a hobby that I was this passionate about. I guess reading is it for me. 
            
            When you edit as you write don’t you find that you it messes up your writing flow??
Reply

Jenfaroo

@Sillybeanns hmmm... Mainly option 3 but also option 4 - I'm an self annoying perfectionist that has to keep writing until that part is finished or where I am happy with it. Also option 5- I hate to leave things half written, so I'll often power through it until I'm done.  And then there's option 6- I edit as I write, I very rarely do drafts and go back in to edit before uploading, especially if I'm on an uploading schedule. So what you see if more often than not the working version, which means sometimes there may be grammatical errors or typos occasionally.

            Yep sounds right. Adulting is a trap. :c
            I like going for walks as me time. Maybe go for a quiet evening stroll is a nice park nearby?

So, Unrequited is a whole week old already! Thank you to everyone that has read and interacted with the story so far. As always, I've loved reading your comments and ideas. I love that you guys get so involved with the characters and the story, just like I do.
          
          So, today's (not so shocking) announcement is that I will be continuing to write this story, as clearly it isn't done with me yet. So much for a bonus chapter or two, then a short story huh? I think our Dex deserves his own time to shine.
          
          So my question of the week for you is.....Do you want me to release the chapters weekly as I write, or do you want to wait until it's finished?  Let me know x

Jenfaroo

@simpforgnabnahc Dex isn't done with me yet. I've been thinking about it all week. So I owe it to him (and to you guys) to tell the rest of his story. 
            
             I think I will try to learn from my mistakes last time and and write myself a few chapters ahead before I start releasing weekly chapters, instead of literally writing to the stupid schedule I set for myself. I can only really focus to write at the weekends, so If I get myself a few chapters ahead, then I should have some content to release ASAP. x

Happy Birthday Charmer!!! ❤️❤️❤️
          
          One year ago today you were spawned from the depths (I'm not that deep haha) of my sleep deprived little mind. You originally started out as something to distract me from what I had going on in my life at the time and I was writing for myself and the little group of friends I'd made online, who encouraged me to share my work. You ended up maturing beyond my wildest expectations, helping me to grow and look where you are now! Over 12k people have met you and I couldn't be more proud of you. Thank you for helping me through a couple of rough times last year, bringing me new friends, characters I love and for giving me the confidence to do something I never knew I would enjoy so much.  
          
          And a huge THANK YOU to everyone that has read and enjoyed (even not enjoyed, for you shaped it too) the story. I've read each and every comment and I've loved seeing how people have interacted with the story. I'm so glad that people have found things in the story that resonates with them. Your support means the world to me ❤️❤️❤️
          
          I hope I can continue to offer other works for you that you enjoy in the future ❤️❤️❤️ 
          
          P..S - a new "short" story is dropping in just under 4 hours, so I would be honoured if you could check it out. 
          There's is still more to come from me yet  ❤️❤️

@jijisung14 ysym ❤️❤️ tysm as always, thank you for your support. I always look forward to reading your comments
