So, after several months of working on Chasing Daisy's rewrite and 30k words worth of work I decided.... to scrap it. Sorry. It just wasn't going where I wanted it to and I felt like it could have more potential. So, I'm rewriting it again, and hopefully this version will be a lot better!
If you want and have time, I have a BookTube channel where I talk about... well, books! If that interests you then feel free to watch. My name on there is Pumpkin Reads
How nanowrimo went..
Me: Yay! Nanowrimo is here!! Time to start working on Chasing Daisy!!
School: Lol, you're funny. Here, have a couple essays.
Work: wHerE aRE yOuuuuuu
*Nanowrimo is over*
Me: Damn it. Well, here's to December...
Hey guys!
I just wanted to let you know that I am participating in Nanowrimo, but not in a way that you may think. I am currently working on Chasing Daisy, a novel I finished in 2016, and am at 32k words right now and it's not finished. For Nanowrimo I am going to write Chasing Daisy for an hour to two hours a day so that I am one step closer to being finished and posting it on here! I'm very excited to share and finish it and hope that you guys are excited to read it.
If you want to keep up with me on my progress, I am going to be posting about it on my Instagram account (which is linked on here in my "about me"). Do you guys have any plans for Nanowrimo? I'd love to know!
Hey guys,
So a bit of an update. I will no longer have the short story collection on my account. I know, I know, you're probably thinking "Well, you just put it up there a month ago... why take it away now?" And the answer to that is because I don't want it to be on here anymore.
So, I will be taking it down at the end of this month (July). But this won't be the last you time are going to see the short stories. I have a youtube channel and have been filming videos of me reading aloud my writing and am planning on posting reactions to these short stories that I wrote. I already have reacted to my fanfiction!
...
So, to summarize everything:
-I'm taking down the "Sort Story collection" at the end of July.
-I'm planning on reacting to them on my youtube channel found here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFpRDcJ8i9fVcINQJDnouSQ
-I already reacted to my fan fiction on said channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nKfuvySXX4
- Please subscribe if you enjoy my content, It would mean so much!

Thank you for understanding. I also am still working on Chasing Daisy so that should be coming within the next year or so. Until then I am working on a couple other stories that should be fun, more on that later!
I have just made a short story collection for those interested. As of right now I just have an "about the author" part but I will be posting on it every Sunday so stay tuned.
Anonymous is now officially completed!! Hope you enjoyed that fun little story, it was short but I think it turned out alright. Feel free to give me any constructive criticism you have, it is always appreciated❤❤
I'm also putting another story on here, it's just going to be a collection of short stories and such that I worked on throughout life as a writer. I think it would be fun... For those of you who followed me on Wattpad for a couple of years, I will be putting my very first fan fic in this collection (but don't worry, after I work on it more it will be it's own story). I'm still deciding what day to post it, what do you think?

Being posted every Friday (maybe even another day too but we'llsee)
Synopsis: When Allison learns about Colby and Hannah's break up, she decides to write hate letters to Colby anonymously in order to stand up for her dear friend.
Update: So I am at about 30,000 words on Chasing Daisy and I'm not even half done with it! I will be working on it everyday this week, so it will come soon. I mean, I am not going to announce a date until I begin editing, but just know that I am working on it.
I also have finished a short story, about 4,000 words called Anonymous. It involves a break up, cheater, and letters to a fuck boi. I will edit it soon and put it up for you guys!!!
So excited for you guys to read both stories! ✍

Hey guys, I just wanted to say that I found an awesome app called "Serif" where it allows you to text your characters. You act like them and you can create profiles for them and have them interact with each other via text (See youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_tJ_Gg33eU ). I have only been using it for a brief time but I have to say it is highly addictive and helps with character development. Using this app, I know a lot more about Daisy then I have in the year that I first created her. Another helpful tip is to create a Pinterest board for your characters and pin things that they would like. I created a romance novel called "Chasing Daisy" when I was 16 and I have taken it off of Wattpad, where it first appeared, because it needed some adjusting. I have been thinking about rewriting it and am currently in the process of building character development and making an outline. Because of college, I am afraid I may not be able to work on it as much as I should but with the help of this app I can work on it more. I have also come up with an idea of working on the novel for two to three hours every weekend when I am finished with my homework, be it using the Serif app or pinning stuff or possibly writing. It's a process and I want it to be perfect so you may not be able to read in in a year or so but I am super excited to be writing it again. Update on College life: I have changed colleges and am now going on campus, it is amazing and I feel like I am already learning so much! I hope you guys are having fun during school and learning loads. I have been thinking about deleting my Wattpad account because most people rave about fanfiction and not about original stories and I feel sad because original stories take a lot of work. What do you guys think? *Update also seen on Quotev*
I'd like to say that I am thoroughly confused and would like anyone's expertise on the following. I had just received a ranking for Winters Bliss as #278 in nanowrimo... can anyone tell me what exactly that means and if it's good news? I mean, I didn't enter my story in any contests and I only have about 50 reads on it... Thank you, your help is greatly appreciated.
