Happy New Year! 
          
          I hope you had a pleasant Holiday Break, and the return back to the everyday grind hasn't been too painful. I hope I can ease that return to reality by letting you know that I've added more chapters to "Saving My Heart".

          I've been putting it through a revision, and got more work done. It's my gift for the new year. It's a true labor of love to bring you this story. I've been working on it for awhile now. It is complete. So, just stick with me as I put it through some revision again, and publish it all fully over the next few months. Follow along and you won't be disappointed. 
          
          Plus, my Kpop romance, Love Over Kpop, has launched on another platform. It has been a long journey for that story too, having been on two other serial platforms that closed. Since I think Wattpad doesn't allow other platform links, I'm including my blog/website link that has all the info for you. Please check it out below.

          As far as my other project, "Confessions of a Wannabe Ghost Hunter", I'm going to try to get back and do some more chapters on that story soon. I've been resting up from a trip to the UK for the Holidays. Jet Lag Recovery is  making it hard for me to work and write right now. I've had a few weeks of very little sleep at a time. So, my brain is a bit scrambled for big writing projects. But I soon should recover, and get more back on the ball. I'm hoping to include my ghost hunting story in my writing plans for 2026. 
          
          Please feel free to comment in any of my stories. I enjoy being able to talk with you. 
          Take care and best wishes for 2026. 
          Until next time, 
          -Marilyn

Greetings and Salutations! 
          
          I hope you're having a great start to November. Got some exciting news. I've decided to bring "Saving My Heart" back to Wattpad. I was trying out Patreon, and that was a real dud. I have some flash fiction there, but I'm going to bring stories back to Wattpad. It feels like I'm shouting into a void here, but at least it feels like home.
          
          Since "Saving My Heart" started here, I'm going through and revising before I'm publishing the manuscript again. It's a new edition. I hope it will be interesting to you if you have read my other stories. It's a contemporary romance. Writing it helped me get through my heart attack 10 years ago. So, it's back, with a revision. I hope you enjoy it. As I go through the chapters, I'll post them. It has 40 episodes. It will be nice to go through and do some tweaks. Maybe change the ending. We'll see.
          Saving My Heart 2025 edition

          Meanwhile, my Kpop rom that has never been on Wattpad, but has gone through two other platforms, V-e-l-l-a and R-a-d-i-s-h Fiction, is now on T-a-p-a-s. I need to put dashes in the name, since I noticed when I spell out other platforms on Wattpad, it tends to block publishing the message. 
          
          But if you happen to be on T-a-p-a-s, here is the info to find it:
          Love Over Kpop
          Sorry. The direct link isn’t posting to Wattpad.
          Go to the app. Search in novels/community/romance/love over Kpop.
          It is popping up in the Community Novels section under new romances.
          
          It has its first 5 eps up. I'm posting an episode daily through November. The whole series is done, and I'd love any support over there. Subscribers is a way to finally get monetized there too. You need 100 subscribers. 250 subscribers to start getting Ink donations. So, if I can get a following there, it would be nice to continue the Kpop roms on that platform. We'll have to see. 
          
          So, have a great Thanksgiving, and I thank you for your support.

Hi everyone,
          
          I know it's been awhile since I've posted a follow-up. Just bare with me. I've been working on a serial Kpop romance on R-a-d-i-s-h Fiction. Yes. I know it's closing, but I wanted to finish the serial novel there, and leave it up for readers, to finish of course. Pretty sad to see that app closing. It's been a nice new home after Kindle Vella closed. But can't cry over spilled milk. Just going to FINALLY finish it. That is exciting. If you'd like to catch that serial novel which will be up for a few more months, here is the direct link:
          
          Love Over Kpop: A serial novel on R-a-d-i-s-h Fiction. 
          Will be complete on Sept. 30th.
          https://radish.app.link/0AJK4km0sVb
          
          Meanwhile, once that is done, I'm going to return to "Confessions of a Wannabe Ghost Hunter" here on Wattpad. I feel the call of my characters here, and will continue the story. I've also had some life events happen, namely a death in the family and I had to travel to Oklahoma for the memorial. That put all my writing behind. But I'm trying to get back on track now, and get you some episodes/chapters for October. 
          
          Meanwhile, have a great start to your fall, a pumpkin spice, and follow me to not miss the new ep/chapters of "Confessions" coming in October. 
          Happy Spooky Season!

Greetings and salutations!
          
          So, I just wanted to give you all an update on how things are going on with me lately. My Kpop romance, "Love Over Kpop" was accepted onto the R-A-D-I-S-H F-I-C-T-I-O-N app. I have spent the last few weeks preparing and uploading the first several episodes. Basically, I wanted to get it off and running before I turned to other writing projects. So, it has basically filled a lot of my writing time for May. It's available on the app now. Just do a search for "Love Over Kpop".
          
          Now that it has launched there, I can no turn my attention this June to working on other writing projects. Like "Confessions of a Wannabe Ghost Hunter". This has been a fun story. It currently parallels some of my ghost hunting adventures. Happily, I can get back to this story and start getting out some new episodes. 
          
          I'm not sure of the writing schedule yet, because "Love Over Kpop" will be taking priority for now. But I'm going to put ..."Wannabe Ghost Hunter" back into my writing schedule, and get some episodes written. Whether they'll come out weekly, biweekly or monthly, I'm not sure yet. Once I figure it all out, I'll let you know. 
          
          This experiment with serial novel writing has really led to big things. Wattpad has helped with that. I have my serial novel "Saving My Heart" that could be launched next on the RF reading app. I do want to finish my current story before I start launching more. But Wattpad has been my writing lab to start them, and I really appreciate everyone following my stories over the last 10 years. It has allowed me to explore what is possible for a little Indie author like myself. Thanks for hanging in there with me.
          
          Meanwhile, thanks for the support and love. Follow my stories so you don't miss any new episodes. They will be coming over the next few months.
          
          If you'd like updates on all I'm doing, including my side hustle of a ghost tour, visit my website at: https://marilynvix.com.  
          
          Until next time,

Howdy everyone,
          I have a quick announcement. I have one of my stories, Love Over Kpop, that has been accepted onto another reading app. It's a forbidden love, close proximity office romance set in the soon emerging LA based Kpop/music scene. My character, a newly started promo assistant, is thrust into taking part in a music video with a moody, leader named Woo Lin-ho. Trish wants to prove herself to the her new boss and helps out in the video. But then, she gets assigned to help Lin-ho go up the California Coast to a special event. Can she keep her feelings in-check and her job while in the proximity of a Kpop Idol? Could you?
          
          It's on the reading app R-A-D-I-S-H  F-I-C-T-I-O-N. For some reason, previous messages are not loading when I spelled out the app. The story will debut at 9pm GMT with two release times for new eps. A 3 hr chat time happens with the release of a new episode. So, I'd love to chat with you and hear about what you thought of the episode and your questions. 
          
          Some of you may already have the app. So, I wanted to get the word out and let you know. I also will be still here, updating my ghost hunter story. It might be a little slower on the updates, because of working on this story too. But I wanted to put you all in the loop. 
          
          Again, thank you for your love and support!
          -Marilyn

Greetings and salutations!
          Where did February go? It seems like the New Year has just started. I've been busy with a lot of writing projects, and have started moving a lot of my writing to my Patreon account. The Vella story will be appearing on there soon too since Kindle Vella has now shut down. There is a free tier and a supportive tier. Either would be supportive of my writing journey. It does help to know you're out there reading. 
          
          https://www.patreon.com/MarilynVix
          
          And I guess that leads me into my other news.  I have decided to keep writing "Confessions of a Wannabe Ghost Hunter" still on Wattpad. I have some followers reading it, and I don't want to let you down. With requests to update soon, it really pulls at my heart to get the story written and in your hands to read. To know you're out there waiting for a new update really helps. So, thank you for letting me know. I have put up the new update, episode 25 now. So, if you've been waiting, it's up.
          
           I'll try to update at least every couple of weeks. If I can try to do so weekly, I will. But I have a small ghost tour business that I'm finishing a script for, a new short play, and even the next novella in a series I've been trying to finish since 2021. But more comments helps me to know you're out there. SO, please comment often. It does help motivate me to write the next episode and update quicker. It's sorta like kicking me in the butt to get it done. And I appreciated the motivation. ;-)
          
          Anyway, here is the new episode link.
          https://www.wattpad.com/1498980795-confessions-of-a-wannabe-ghost-hunter-chapter-25
          
          Let me know what you think. Thanks for being there and being supportive. I appreciate it so much.

Greetings everyone,
          
          I just wanted to update you on my new fan community over on Patreon. It's for my Vixens, my exclusive fanbase that follows me and loves my books and stories. I hope you can join us at: https://www.patreon.com/c/MarilynVix.
          
          I've started to move over my novel, "Saving My Heart" and "Confessions of a Wanna Be Ghost Hunter" from Wattpad. I will officially finish both novels there. And if you like Kpop romance, I'll be posting my Vella novel, "Love Over Kpop" there as well as soon as Vella ends at the end of January. It will having posts for that novel beginning of February.
          
          Plus, I'm posting my exclusive flash fiction that can only be found at the Patreon account. So, it's exciting to be building this new community, and I hope you can join us. I will be leaving a lot of my fan fiction here on Wattpad, and likely the start of "Confessions..." here. But further writing of it will be over on Patreon. 
          
          I want to thank everyone for all of the support and love here on Wattpad. But I'm just feeling it will be easier to keep all of my writing in one place so it is easy to find. I want to connect and talk with all my fans in one place. Being spread out between Vella, Wattpad, running my website and other endeavors is a lot. So, consolidating will make things so much easier for me, and hopefully easier for my readers to find my stories all on one platform. I will still be on Wattpad sometimes, maybe just to try out new things or chat. We'll see how it goes. I still consider Wattpad a type of writing lab really. And it's been good to me over the last 10 years.
          
          I hope you are having a great start to 2025. 
          May all your reading and writing dreams comes true. 
          I hope to see you on Patreon.
          -Marilyn

Greetings and salutations! 
          Happy New Year! Best wishes for 2025!
          I am excited to announce that I have started a Patreon.com account to put all of my writing in one place for my fans to enjoy. I have been a bit spread out between ebooks, Vella and Wattpad. So, I'm pulling it all together into a Patreon account so everything can be read in one place. I have already taken down my contemporary romance that has been on Wattpad in several draft forms for 10 years, "Saving My Heart". It's time to move it off Wattpad and put it in a place where it can be found more easily. It will be at the paid level, and will be available to buy as a collection once it is all uploaded. 
          
          I'm also including some never before seen flash fiction I've been writing off and on for years. I've done short stories on Wattpad too, since I consider it my writing lab. But I'm going to start moving a lot of that playful writing to Patreon. I am going to leave some of my fan fiction that I've done here. But my original works are going to be moving, including "Confessions of a Wannabe Ghost Hunter." I have enjoyed starting it on Wattpad, and am enjoying writing it. But I'm feeling, I'd like to have it in an area where my fans can enjoy it, I'll get feedback from them, and I can eventually turn it into an ebook. 
          
          The good news, I'm going to put "Confessions..." at the free level of membership. So, you won't have to be a paid Pateron member, but just a free level member to enjoy the continuation of the story. I'm also moving my Vella story: "Love Over Kpop" from Vella onto Patreon. It will release onto Patreon as soon as Vella closes in February. I'll finish that story on Patreon as well. 
          
          So, exciting things for 2025! My new Patreon Account is: 
          https://www.patreon.com/c/MarilynVix.
          Please stop and check it out, and consider joining at free or paid levels. 
          And thank you for all the support on Wattpad over the years. I hope to see you at Patreon. 
          Peace and kindness for 2025,
          -Marilyn

Hey everyone, 
          Thank you for reading and commenting as you go through the recent story of mine, "Confessions of a Wannabe Ghost Hunter". It is really helpful to see all the comments and support. It is what keeps me going writing on Wattpad. 
          
          I do have to let you all know, I do intend to continue with this story. I literally have written half of the next chapter, but I am OVERWHELMED right now with my small business. I started a new small business of running a ghost tour in my small town. And it is REALLY doing well. I had an interview/article of me and the tour in the local newspaper. I've been invited to join the Harvest Festival on Saturday (last minute, but they really want me there), and I've got 7 tours starting this Friday through Halloween week. I have to focus on my new business right now, watching my health, so I can do all the tours. 
          
          So, I've got to take a break right from Wattpad. I'm trying to fight off allergies, which if I get overwhelmed, can lead to infections and being sick. Which I can't let happen since I need my voice and health right now. So, I'm going to take a few weeks away to focus on my new venture, and should return with new chapters in November.
          
          I'm also going to be at Authors Nation 2024 in Las Vegas mid-November. So, if you are there, stop by and say hi at my table on RAVE day. More info on my website at:
          https://www.marilynvix.com.
          
          So, yeah. Super overwhelmed and busy. So, cutting back on some things right now will really help. Thank you for understanding, and there will be new chapters soon in November. 
          
          And of course, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
          -Marilyn

Greetings everyone,
          I wanted to do a little update for my "Confessions of a Wannabe Ghost Hunter" story. Firstly, I didn't get shortlisted for the Watties. Oh well. But I did get on a Wattpad Ambasadors Reading List with other spooky and Halloween oriented stories. I feel that's a big win and acknowledgement that something is going right. So, I'm going to continue with this story, trying to add weekly updates as much as possible. 
          
          Which brings me to my next point. I'm going to have to switch to a new upload time to be on Sundays again. When I was working Ren Faire, it was necessary to move it to Fridays. But I'm back home and running a new ghost tours  business in my small town. Tours run on Friday and Saturday nights. So, I need to focus more on those for the beginning of the weekend. And then, do the post on Sundays, when I'm off from my tours. 
          
          It has been a lot of fun writing "Confessions of a Wannabe Ghost Hunter" the last few months, and it really is jiving with my new small business too. I'm still stuck on some paranormal romances. I'm hoping that sticking with this story will help jog loose some ideas for my other works-in-progress. 
          
          Just as an announcement too, if you're in the Las Vegas area mid-November, I'll be at the Authors Nation conference and RAVE day. I'll be selling my books at my table, and I have "Thankful In Vegas" on pre-sale too for the con. If you're there, stop by my booth. I'll be happy to sign your book and will have a couple more on sale too.
          Here's the link to my book online if you'd like to buy it early. They'll print it there for you too.
