Ok yall, imma be up and honest…
          
          I don’t ship greenflame anymore. I’ve kinda grown out of it because I realize I REALLY like the RGB sibling dynamic much better, and the whole “Kai helped raise Lloyd” thing is a little offsetting. I don’t mind if I read it (I have actually read so many works I’m still keeping up with by very talented writers throughout my time on this app) but I don’t want to write it anymore. At this point I ONLY see Kai as Lloyd’s brother because they’re just so wholesome when supporting each other.
          
          I’ve actually really been into to greenflower, or Lloyd x Brad (the black-haired kid who took him hostage at Darkley’s in season 1 if you don’t remember) which is actually a reaaallly cute ship.
          
          I won’t delete any of my books, but I’m finished writing greenflame for good. Actually, I might rewrite OMCZ but replace Kai with Brad and post it on Ao3.
          
          This may be goodbye, or it may not, but I don’t want to be associated as being a greenflame writer anymore. Thank you all so much, you have been the greatest readers an amateur-writer-nobody could ask for. <3

Follow Up Question for my long-time and new readers:
          
          When does angst become too much?
          
          Because let’s just say…chapter 13 is no longer my angstiest chapter :/

You guys…
          
          I’m writing chapter 13 of OMCZ and I think it may be my angstiest chapter yet.
          
          Y’all are in for a TREAT :)

Guys I made a mistake
          
          I named a hawk I was planning on killing off in a story of mine
          
          I am in pain now

Please don't pass over this announcement! What I have to say is very important.
          
          Heyyyy girlllllll
          
          Guess who's still here?
          
          Life has been...a lot lately. I'm fine! Don't worry. I'm currently finishing up school and getting ready for summer. Recently I began journaling/scrapbooking to give myself some ease and a way to vent, and I ended up ranting through poetry.
          
          And holy crap was it a good poem.
          
          I want to publish it for a multitude of reasons, but I find myself hesitating because it is VERY different from my usual works. The poem is completely made up of my raw unfiltered emotions and is VERY depressing, but...I feel like it's something people need to hear for some reason. I don't know, maybe that's the psychiatrist in me speaking, or maybe it's midnight and I don't know what the heck I'm talking about. Nonetheless, I have it all planned out and ready to publish but I mean it when I say it is depressing.
          
          I want to know how you feel about it, and PLEASE don't be a silent reader. I genuinely want to know what your take is on the information I have just given you. I KNOW there's like 70 people who get this notification so there's no reason why only one person should be getting back to me lol.
          
          Please let me know!

My friends, the prologue for the original Outside My Comfort Zone has been published ;)

Okay I’m pretty much sold on the idea to republish the old OMCZ, so yay! I’ll do the same thing I did with The Dragonkin Twins and upload chapters every Wednesday and Sunday (if I remember. I’m a human who has a life and sometimes life gets busy).
          
          Get ready ;)

I’ve decided now that Dragonkin Twins of over to republish the original version of Outside My Comfort Zone while you wait for the rewrite. I don’t want to fall off the grid and cause my platform to become a ghost town. But, I will not be making ANY updates or finish the book, as that’s what the rewrite is for. Unfortunately I am falling out of love with greenflame, but I can’t bring myself to give up on the project. So, I won’t. Instead, I’m going to motivate myself when I can and write every time I’m in the mood even a little bit. I finally got past the two chapters that left me stumped for months on end, so now I can move forward. I think Outside My comfort zone (the rewrite) will be my last book, though. At least for the time being.
          
          What do you think? Would you enjoy reading the original while the rewrite is still in production?

My goodness I’ve been so busy I forgot to update The Dragonkin Twins for WEEKS. Sorry ya’ll ahah…

Heyo
          
          I’m still alive, don’t worry. I’ve actually made pretty decent process with the OMCZ rewrite. I debated several times when I should publish it (IF I should publish it) and my original plan was to wait until the book is close to being finished to start publishing chapters, but I honestly have no idea when or if it’ll ever be done. I guess I’ve just lost my passion for creative writing. To be fair, though, writing was my Covid obsession/escape from reality and basically was the only think keeping me sane. After that whole ordeal I moved states and started at a new (small) school which was a hard adjustment. I’m realllllllly tempted to start publishing chapters but the last thing I want to do is leave you all in the dust with an unfinished book like Tournament of Isolation. 
          
          I’m not ready to give up on OMCZ yet. I’m very stubborn and will not allow myself to abandon that book. That’s all I have to really say, there isn’t much of a conclusion here lol.
