Hi, everyone,
          	
          	Quick update: I managed to update both Bossed Into a Deal and Espresso Shot Through the Heart, but don't know when I'll be able to update next. Can be in a week, can be in 3 weeks. All I know, there most likely won't be regular updates for a little while. 
          	
          	I'm dealing with problems because of the fires in LA.  Physically, I'm safe in another state and my family are safe, but our place in LA has been damaged and we lost some of our property. And I'm not doing well mentally/emotionally because watching the buildings holding years of history, culture, and heritage being burned to the ground, all the people losing everything and their entire lives, my hometown, all the places I loved, everything being destroyed and turned to ash, it's all taking its toll on me. It's heartbreaking, and now the fires are spreading even further east.  I won't be very active on here for a bit, but I'll still be doing my best to keep up with stuff and update my stories as we figure out what to do, since honestly, writing has proven to be a decent distraction at times. And my DMS on discord are available. 
          	
          	Sending love and prayers to the people of South Cali affected and hoping that the firefighters will get the fires contained.

Happy New Year, everyone! As we enter the new year, I wish everyone the best and that you will achieve the goals you have set for 2025!! 
          
          I've grown a lot over the last year as a person and accomplished a bit on Wattpad. From being featured over 17 times by ambassador profiles to becoming an Ambassador myself to writing around 200k words and bringing worlds to life that have existed in my mind for years. And meeting new, awesome people!
          
          One of my goals this year is to cook up a superhero novella at the order of a friend *winks*, and I have something really exciting coming soon! 
          
          Shout-out to the Dreamland Community for being an awesome, supportive community. I'm happy to be a member and part of the team. And of course, I'm glad to be a part of other communities that I've joined since joining Wattpad!
          
          Thank you, @kae-ruby, for being an incredible friend and such a supportive, super awesome person. I love chatting with you about everything, especially our works, and your help with my writing has brought me so much further in my journey as a writer than I would have been without you. And for enduring my little vents lol. Love you!
          And if anyone wants to read sapphic superhero time travelling, check out her story Always/Never. 
          
          Also, @-DeeIsDead-, I'm so happy to have met you and gotten to become friends with you over the last year. You're an incredible person, and thank you for the supportive and encouraging words you've given me whenever I was down. Love you, Dee *hugs*
          If anyone is interested in reading about a bisexual necromancer and my beloved protector Clove set in a  super cool fantasy world, check out their story Morana the Cursed.
          
          And thank you to @ainsleyjames for choosing me as her mentee for BCM last year. Everything I've learned, all the advice I've gotten, it has helped my writing so much. Forever grateful. 
          
          And with that, Happy New Year again!

Just popping in to say that my psychological horror short story 'Stitched' has been longlisted in the Shortys! I'm quite proud of that tiny project of mine XD
          
          And thank you to @adventure profile for also featuring Lethal Encounter to their Wattpad birthday reading list! My ONC 2024 novella is making me very proud <33
          I'm also looking forward to cheering on the Wattys winners announcement tomorrow! 
          
          Yes, I'm trying to be a bit more active on my message board heh. I've neglected it. 
          
          And how is everyone doing? Are you guys looking forward to the holiday, or... dreading them?

Hi, everyone! How are you guys doing? 
          
          I just want to thank the @action and @ChickLit profiles for featuring 'Lethal Encounter' and 'Espresso Shot Through The Heart' on their '18 Romance Stories We Are Obsessed With' lists in honor of Wattpad's 18th birthday. These are such huge achievements for me, and I'm proud of my little stories being up there among other amazing stories :') 
          
          In other news, the standalone novel sequel to 'Beating Only For You' is coming out soon. It will be even better than the novella, with plenty of sci-fi and dystopian elements, and yes, there will be quite a few tragedies as well. You'll definitely be in for an emotional rollercoaster ride. 
          
          And that's all for now!

@ MilaSteelesHearts  congratulations. I am very happy for you!

Hello, everyone! It's been a while since I've posted anything on my message board! How has everyone been doing? 
          
          I just published the first chapter of my short story I'm submitting for Halloween Vault this year! I hope you guys will like it if you do check it out! I might have gone overboard for such a small story, but why not? It may be late after Halloween, but it's never too late for some horror.
