Hey everyone! I'm a little late to the game, because I've been offline recently. I've been finishing up the semester while also taking care of my family, who are all very sick at the moment (flu season - you know how it goes).
          	
          	But I just heard the big announcement...I'VE BEEN NOMINATED FOR THE 2024 ARMAGEDDON AWARDS! Specifically, Dear Valentina has been nominated in the "Best Sit-Com Fic" category! This is truly beyond flattering and a real moment of pride for me considering how much work/planning I do for that story. I truly aim to make reading Dear Valentina incredibly entertaining for my readers.
          	
          	Thank you to the people who nominated me and who have voted for this story already! If anyone would like to vote (deadline is December 23rd), I have attached a link (please read the rules beforehand).
          	
          	I also want to give a shout-out to another amazing author who happens to be nominated in the same category, @starryeyedturtle. Imogen is incredibly sweet and talented, and I'm glad we get to share this exciting news together.

Also...shout-out to @aesflms for organizing this event. Not only does it promote healthy comraderies in the reading community, but allows for people to meet new creators and read new stories. I love it! How creative of an idea. And they seem to be putting in A LOT of effort and time into making sure everything's being handled fairly - so kudos, because I could never put in the level of time and dedication <3

If anybody wants DILF Luke Kirby as an early Christmas present...watch Out of my Mind on DisneyPlus. Not only is he great in it - acting wise and attractive wise - but the film's actually a very sweet and empowering story about a young girl with cerebral palsy. 
          
          I highly recommend it!

Okay, I'm (almost) late to the party by 15 minutes, but I just wanted to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Say Something! That's right - it's been 10 years since the first part of Say Something was released - which is both insane, beautiful, and depressing.
          
          Truth be told, I can't remember if this was the first story I published on this site (probably not, because I didn't know commitment back then and went through several now-deleted TW stories). But it was the first that I finished so regardless of how I feel about the quality, I'm very proud of it.
          
          Thank you for those who stuck around with me through the years and to those who stumble upon my old Teen Wolf stories now! Onward and upward to better things!

I don't know why I continue to hurt myself the way that I do ― I've always been good at avoiding shows that got cancelled too early with unfinished plotlines. It's the reason why I avoid half of the shows on Netflix and HBO right now.
          
          But damn, I loss self-control and binged-watch the entirety of GLOW this month. Was hooked immediately. Knew that there was suppose to be a fourth (and final) season, but Netflix had shut that shit down and blamed the pandemic as an excuse (even though other shows were halted mid-production and continued when it was safer).
          
          Now, I'm left with unabated frustration, especially about the central romance that I had been shipping since the pilot. 
          
          Curse you Netflix
          
          Anyway, if anyone wants to watch a fun dramedy about female wrestling in the 80s and you don't have abandonment issues, I'd recommend you go check it out.

@JenniferEdwards710 YOU COULD READ MY POST ABOUT IT. OR GOOGLE IT.

@JenniferEdwards710 I mean, there's been a billion shows on streaming that I thought deserved more, but that got cancelled lol but the one I'm specifically talking about in the post is GLOW. It was cancelled in the beginning of the pandemic, but I just started/finished watching it for the first time

yoo, the way I really, really do not want to re-start watching Bridgerton (there are so many better shows out there), but am also so obsessed with Luke Thompson's Benedict and need more content of him
          
          (Also, for those waiting for a DEAR VALENTINA update - IT'S COMING! I promise! The latest chapter was severely delayed, because unfortunately, I had to move houses and a lot of other stressful events occurred all at the same time. Life sometimes sucks, what can I say?)

starryeyedturtle

also no worries about the dear valentina update! no pressure, life always finds a way to throw us off-course. hope you’re doing well.
