The year is 2020. Fifteen year old me is pondering the idea of a superhero whose power is the ability to naturally see cells on the microscopic level. In comes spring break, and I begin writing...
          	
          	That was four years ago. There was no outline or plan whatsoever, just me and a blank Google Docs page. Spring break ended up being the start of lockdown and so I continued cracking on. By late May and early June, I had been writing about 1k word a day. That also meant posting daily chapters. 
          	
          	To this day, I have no idea how I did that. I don't think I'll ever have that amount of self control again, to just write a story from beginning to end with no pause. March 2020 to June 2020 was a wild three months. By no means am I proud of the writing I did--- quite frankly, I still cannot read it without dying of embarrassment and wishing that I did things differently. Still, I am proud that it happened. 
          	
          	Flower, my horrendous yet beautiful Marvel fanfiction, reached 100k reads earlier today. This is a number I cannot even begin to fathom, so I don't think I can even express how much gratitude I have right now. I mean... just last week, Flower was added to one of @fanfic's reading lists. Yes, I had to fill out a submission form (so long ago that I don't even remember filling it out), but this is still so wild to me. 
          	
          	So thank you. Even if you haven't read Flower and am just reading this, thank you. Thank you for your interest, your kind words, and your enthusiasm. Most of all, thank you for giving me your time. 
          	
          	I haven't finished a single story since Flower, but I still have so many ideas floating around. I hope you all continue to be patient with me and stick around for when I finish my next work. If not, that's fine too. Thank you for the time you have already given me.

The next month is going to be wild. I’m traveling so many places. It’s going to be two weeks abroad, two weeks back home, and then two weeks abroad again. I love traveling and exploring pretty cities, but goddamn, I haven’t even set foot into a city yet and I’m already exhausted. I still have two more flights to get through too. Someone please get me a bed. 
          
          P.S. I’m writing this in South Korea.

If anyone remembers Greenhouse One, I may or may not started working on it again... Chapter One may have just been rewritten... A new cover may have been made... 
          
          (Greenhouse One being my Harry Potter fanfiction about Ally, a very lost muggleborn Ravenclaw during her first year at Hogwarts. It is very much the least fanfic-y fanfic I've ever written because it takes on more middle grade themes than anything. And if someone responds to this post, I will start rambling about this.)

@_Mini_Padfoot_ oh my god, I only just saw this lmao. The funny thing is I actually did start working on this again a couple days ago.

Heck, I'm going to ramble about this even though no one's said anything. 
            
            We all know Neville's first year story. A Gryffindor who doesn't believe he's brave enough to be a Gryffindor. 
            
            Now take Ally: a Ravenclaw who doesn't believe herself to be smart enough to be in Ravenclaw --- this feeling being especially heightened because she is a muggleborn who had no idea Hogwarts existed up until a couple months before the first day of class. 
            
            Literally a match made in heaven. 
            
            (platonically because they are both eleven at the time greenhouse one occurs... but the romance is what book two AKA a collection of one-shots is for) 
            
            Okay, I'll stop talking now.

I don’t use the DM feature a lot here anymore, but it still kinda stinks that Wattpad is getting rid of it. I liked having the option. But if anyone wants a way to message me after Wattpad removes it on May 6th, feel free to DM me for my Discord.

on the verge of writing a MCU x Oppenheimer fanfic because last i checked, there were none on Ao3 and that’s kind of a crime
