Hi. I'm alive. I have no idea if anyone cares about Try To Keep the Pace / Honesty anymore, but I've been feeling like drawing / creating smaller forms of content of it. I usually post my art on my tumblr, but someone wants me to I can use alternatives as well.
Hey I don’t know if you’re still active on wattpad- it’s been a while since you posted. But if you do get this message anyhow I just want to say I think your story Try to Keep the pace is an incredible piece of work. Just finished reading it after bingeing it the last couple of days. I really liked how you delved into Riley’s and Alice’s backstory, they really helped me understand the characters better and it was good character development as well. As a teen I feel like the way you portrayed some of the characters and their relationships in the story is actually pretty accurate to real life and I find myself being able to relate to them a lot. (Maybe because you were a teen when you wrote this as well?) I also checked out your new reboot of the original story, and ngl, your style of writing has matured greatly, and I really like the flow of the new version.
Hopes this finds you well.
@earpuffs oh my god hi. As you can see I'm not really active here anymore, but around last month or so, I got the sudden urge to log in here. It was a pretty slow day and needed something to pass time with at work. I kid you not, I've been thinking about your message every single day since then, but either didn't know how to reply or just simply lacked the time. I'm glad that there are people that to this day enjoy my little silly project from back then I was like 13-14. It's pretty crazy to think that almost a decade had gone by since I had started writing this (I'm 22 currently). Hopefully ,in the future (approximately a year from now), I will have more time to dwell more in my hobbies and passions. I really wish to continue writing the reboot of Try To Keep The Pace, as I think the characters and story in its own deserve a proper ending. I hope you are also doing well and truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you :)
Seriously if you indeed wrote Try to Keep the Pace when you were 13-14 and English being a second language you did an amazing job and I feel as if you are missing your calling! It is a great story! I couldn't stop reading it!
@EricaLawrence6 um hey. Thank you for thinking so, my young self humbly thanks you lol (yes, I did write it around when I was 13-14, so roughly 5-6 years ago) umm honestly I did consider and actually start rewriting Try To Keep the Pace a while back (it might have been a couple of years ago), but with lack of time and motivation it lead to nowhere. Ngl, the idea had resurfaced again when wattpad came up in a convo I had with some friends, but its just not the right time ^^' tho I would change a lot of things in it, so it would definitely not be the same story you seemingly grow to like + the plot has already been given away pretty much lol Sorry if this reply is all over the place. It's almost 2am and I have to get up early to continue studying. I just had the impulse to respond ^^'
Happy late Easter(if u celebrate it) update?
Happy New year,I hope u update your book.im waiting,thanks
Ha! So you’re not dead. Good to know. Welcome back I guess.
@TheBestGayBoi Thank you! Yes I am still very much alive (somehow). I guess, the world will have to try harder if it wants to take me out.
okay so, wtf.
I've gotten hold of my mother's tablet for the first time in years and to my surprise, this app was still installed on that device. In my really bored and slightly tipsy state of mind I thought "fuck it" and i dived back into this hellhole. I've checked out some of the newer comments on that one thing i have published and some posts/conversations (i have no idea what these are called) and oh BOI.
Let's get a few things straight first and foremost. I started writing in english when i was like 13-14. I was just a lil shit trying to get through the difficulties of a life of a queer child and find some comfort in it. I've eventually found that comfort in reading low quality (not all of the times) wattpad stories and in the end writing a low quality wattpad story myself.
Rereading my only published story (im no way in hell gonna call that a book) I've come across many mistakes (mostly grammar ones). Tbh, the plot is a fucking mess, the characters are shit and I couldn't keep a consistent feel to it. I mean, sure, what else is to be expected from a 14 years old, not native english speaker child who was having an identity crisis every 20 minutes? Despite all of these though, I'm kind of proud of it at the same time, cause having the guts to publish something and then going along with that thing for more than a year takes dedication. Dedication, which I've lost since then kek.
I mostly do art now, as a hobby. Writing hasn't really been a passion to me for a while now, thanks to many unrelated reasons, which I'm not feeling like detailing.
So yeah. TL;DR: I started writing when I was around 13-14. I'm 17 atm, heading towards 18.
I'm not going to finish Try To Keep The Pace. And idk if I will ever write anything beside fanfiction (which are not posted on here). Despite everything, I'm thankful for everyone who came across my stuff and gave a shot to my sad excuse of a stroy haha.
I hope you will all have an amazing day :D
I mean try to keep the pace
Din't mean to pressure you. But when will you update *Can You Keep the pace* Its just I love that story
