Hey guys! New chapter has been posted just now, so feel free to check it out.
          
          I'm not sure if I'll have the time to write any more before the New Year, but if I do, I'll get it posted for you.

@sillybeanns You'll be pleased to hear that a small delivery of ingredients has arrived today, so the oven is currently pre-heating whilst I lay out all the ingredients and think of what dish to make for you. It may only be a little appetiser  rather than a whole feast, but it might just be enough to sate  your hunger for now. I don't know when it will be fully baked, but I'm hoping to get it out before Christmas

I am hungry.
          
          Like the kind of hunger you come home to after a long day of physical exertion. 
          
          But specifically for @jenfaroo stories. 

Did I dream that Wattpad introduced a "continue reading" button??? Because now it's gone and I miss that little button. I thought my days of trying to remember what chapter I was on and scrolling through until I found it wete finally over. But no, here we are right back to square one. TO WATTPAD - hear me now, please when I say BRING BACK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON!! Sincerely, a long suffering reader

Hey everyone! How are we all? Are we being busy little elves in the run up to Christmas? Or grumpy Grinches hiding away from everyone like I am?
          
          Whilst I'm inside hiding away from the world, I'm reading Unrequited from the start, so that I can see how things are flowing and making sure everything so far makes sense. I trying to read it from a readers POV, not a writer, like I'm reading someone else's story and getting involved with the characters. That way, I'm hoping that when I get to the end of the current chapters, I'll have a bit of a clearer idea which path to go down for the rest of the story.
          
          But of course, as always, I'm always happy to her your feedback. Constructive criticism welcomed. What do you guys think of the story/character progression? Where do you think its going to go? /where would you like it to go?

I’m looking for a story and hoping someone recognizes it.
          
          The author wrote long chapters. The FMC is a traveling photographer. While visiting a friend in Korea who works with K-pop groups, she photographs a man dancing in an alley—later revealed to be Hyunjin. Her friend invites her to dinner with her K-pop circle, which ends up being Stray Kids, and she’s surprised to see Hyunjin there. They immediately click. Later at a café they get spotted by fans and have to run.
          
          A major theme is them navigating a language barrier: Hyunjin learning English, her learning Korean. Despite her fear of commitment—due to trauma from a past relationship and her constant travel—she agrees to a long-distance relationship. She travels nonstop for photography gigs, and they stay close through calls and FaceTime. There’s a memorable scene where she calls him from a rooftop in another country.
          
          There’s also a subplot with her brother (possibly a gay lawyer) and their strained relationship, tied to family expectations. At one point she visits him, and they spend a day in a beach town, walking the boardwalk and going into an arcade.
          
          Hyunjin eventually introduces her to his mom, which is a big deal. She’s also working on becoming more financially secure, and there’s a moment where she laughs at people assuming she’s broke despite earning well.
          
          When she visits Korea, Hyunjin’s friends come over for takeout. Someone suggests a “contract relationship” to help her manage her commitment issues, which she finds too clinical. There’s also a hint that her friend has an unconventional, contract-based relationship with Chan.
          
          During one visit, there’s a smut scene where Hyunjin apologizes afterward for not asking about birth control/STDs and gently cleans her up.
          
          Overall, it’s about a woman constantly on the move, avoiding commitment after a past breakup, slowly learning to let herself connect again.

So a while ago I mentioned that I had done something but I couldnt tell you what at that time (I dont know if you guys will remember that haha) But now I can tell you (I could have told you then, I just wanted to keep it to myself for a while just in case haha)
          
          A few months ago I entered Charmer into The Ambys. If you're not familiar with it, its the fanfiction version of The Wattys. Basically, you can enter your story into a certain category and and go through different rounds based on certain criteria, with the end goal of getting to the finals and getting you story out there for more people to enjoy.
          
          Well, unfortunately I didnt make it to round 3, But I am still proud of myself for submitting it. There are so many great stories it was up against, so Im just proud I got as far as I did.(definitely check out the other stories to see if anything takes your fancy)
          
          You all know Charmer is my first baby and originally I was only writing it for me and a small group of friends to read. But now its on over 18k reads and I’m still flabbergasted by every like, comment and view on the story. It means so much that a people are reading it, re-reading it and connecting with the characters. 
          
          Writing that story really helped me to work through some personal stuff I had going on at the time and helped me discover my love of writing. I might not be the best writer out there, but I do love writing. I also love reading through all the comments from you guys. So I want to thank you all for being involved in the process, reading and connecting with the story and for your continued support.
          
          I hope to keep writing and giving you stuff that you will ready and enjoy .❤️❤️❤️

I come with the worst spoiler and probably not what you want to hear. But there's not going to be a chapter this week I'm afraid. Let me explain...
          
          I've got so many ideas buzzing around in my tiny brain for Unrequited, but I never intended for it ro be a 40+ chapter story like Charmer was. I dont want to drag the story out for longer than necessary, but I also want to give the characters time to figure things out and find a happy resolve. So I'm a little conflicted at the moment and I'm fighting with my own brain. 
          
          I need to sit down and spend a bit of time exploring all the ways I could take this story to the finish line and flesh out the ideas. Once I've decided which way to go, I'll plan all the remaining chapters out then start writing. But that's not going to happen before Tuesdays post day.
          
          I want to do the story justice and I don't want to rush it, even if I did set myself a personal deadline for completion. But sometimes life happens and we need to take a break to get some clarity. The last thing I want to do is put too much pressure on myself to put something out and then it doesn't flow well or make any sense. Or worse, you guys dont like it.
          
          Please allow me a little time for my squirrel brain to gather up my scattered acorns and I'll be back as soon as I can to present you with my wares.
          
          ❤️❤️❤️

Hi guys. Happy Feiday!
          
          So, little update for you. I'm hoping to get Unrequited finished soon and the aim is to end it between 25-30 chapters max. I'm going to be planning the final chapters in the next week, so the final countdown is on. I'd like to get it done by the end of the year,  as I want to start working on my next project, but realistically we'll have to see how it goes. 
          
          So if you're up to date with rhe story,  feel free to let me know how you think the story is progressing,  what you think is going to happen and what you'd like to see
          
          ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’m sick and tired of mfs not hyping this masterpiece up. And darn Wattpad for not allowing emojis on the message board
