Hey, everyone! So some life updates and writing updates for the year.
          	
          	When you go through difficult times in your life, it changes you. You can't help but be changed forever by your experiences. I'm sure some of you may have heard about the very bad winter storm, Fern, that hit the Southern portion of the United States. Well, I was affected by that. A tree fell and took the power line down that runs beside my house, the surge protector in the house caught on fire and started smoking when it happened, and another tree fell on the house and vehicle. Meanwhile, I was trapped in the house with no electricity for about 10 days with no heat except a stove burner. It was actually really terrifying to think during those two weeks, just how close I came to dying - that the tree that fell on the house could have killed me, the power surge fire could have engulfed the house and killed me, or even the extreme temperatures with no heat could have killed me. And that was a real thought that I had at the time: was I going to die? I kept thinking of all the things I never did and always wanted to do.
          	
          	Going through something like that gives you a lot of time to think and pray, a lot of time to realize just how short life is and how you need to make the most of your time while you're here.
          	
          	It made me realize too just how much I miss writing on here. When I lost my dad a year and a half ago, my life turned completely upside down. And I spiraled into depression for a long time which made me not want to do or be apart of anything, including my writing... But I finally feel like I'm in a better place now than I was when it happened. I'm not 100% healed but I'm healing. And I'm ready to get back to writing again which I've found that I really missed.

@Ajay-Kumar Thank you! It was actually terrifying - the whole experience. I was already scared of storms but this has just magnified things. But it definitely gives you a different outlook on life - makes you realize what's important and to make the most of your life while you're here ^_^

@QueenMimi96 can't imagine that, it must've been do scary to go through, but I'm glad you came out of it safe sound and open to new possibilities.

@EvadPendell Oh, this one is so good! I love how you used the metaphor of changing seasons to describe the changes of life and the years that go by. It evokes really beautiful imagery too with your wording. Truly amazing!!! ^_^

Hello there
          
          Are you familiar with the band Green Day and the singer Billie Joe Armstrong? 

QueenMimi96

@lauraleal045 Oh wow, that sounds great! You have it really detailed and fleshed out already! Have you tried writing it yourself? I'm sure it would turn out amazingly <3

Lisa would also do acting and modeling on the side I'd say maybe around the mid to late 90s Lisa would begin her acting career by sending photos of her modeling pictures to agencies wanting to audition to act and how she'll become one of the most self made multimillionaire actress/model in the very early 2000 and that all of the love songs that Billie wrote would be for Lisa and him and Lisa would be on the American Idiot album cover and that within a year of marriage Lisa gets pregnant with Joey and another year later Jakob is born

I saw a video of Murdoc Niccals from Gorillaz right now of how Murdoc showed his insights of how the band prepare themselves into performing or getting ready to perform so I imagined that's how Lisa would do her job as a videographer showing her own insights of how the band get ready to perform onstage or getting ready to do an interview of a little bit of behind the scenes footage filming from backstage

I was curious.Are you going to do a sequel to illumination

QueenMimi96

@CaitlinNall480 Hey, thanks for reaching out! I've actually considered writing a sequel for that last year when I was working on some edits for it. At the moment, there's nothing in the works but if I do decide to write a sequel, I'll be sure to let you know  - and thanks for your interest! I loved writing that story and it means a lot that people still enjoy it ❤❤

@CWRC-BOOKCLUB Happy August! I'm doing fine - I actually haven't been apart of a Christian community here on Wattpad in a long time. It'd be fun to be apart of that again! Thanks for the invite! ❤

          Hi Sharon! How are you? I hope you're doing well! 
          
          I'd like to ask if Heir of the Alpha will be published here on Wattpad again at some point sooner or later? 
          
          Yesterday I wanted to read it once more, but coming to your profile I noticed you've taken it down, so I thought I could ask. 
          
          I don't think I can express how much I loved that story! I loved everything about it, from the New Orleans setting to the school and the lore, and the cast you chose for your characters was excellent! I would have loved to see it published as a real book too. It was an amazing original story! 
          
          I understand there has to have been a good reason for you to decide to unpublish it, but I was wondering if that is only temporary or permanent. I would love to be able to take a look at it again, but definitely no pressure. 
          
          You are a truly gifted writer, and as another aspiring writer with Asperger's I want you to know how much I appreciate you and your work here. Thank you! 
          
          All my love, Kallia xx    :)

QueenMimi96

@XxKalliaXx Hey, I've been okay. Hope you've been doing good! Been a long time since we last talked <3 Sorry for the late response - I haven't had internet for a while and just got it back yesterday.
            
            Aw that really means a lot! That literally brought a smile to my face to read - writing Heir of the Alpha was such a fun experience, to dive into that supernatural world <3
            
            Well, I do intend to re-publish it in the near future <3 But I unpublished it for several reasons actually - the first being that I want to re-vamp it into a new project I've been mulling over for a while. It'll still be the same story but I want to weave Heir of the Alpha alongside other books set in the same universe. Have you ever read Cassandra Clare's works, The Mortal Instruments? Think something similar to that. At least that's my goal! And as far as other reasons...I lost my dad unexpectedly last summer and tbh I haven't been the same since so writing has been hard to get back into. But I do miss it and intend to start again soon <3  But it truly means a lot to me that you loved the story that much to want to read it again and to read to its conclusion ^_^ Aw and thank you! As a fellow Asperger's writer, that means more than I can say <333 
            
            When I do start on the new books and begin publishing, I'll be sure to let you know! And thanks again for reaching out, it brightened my day more than I can say <333

          Just letting you know that since today I can’t find the story anymore as well as the users profile on wattpad. To make sure I wasn’t blocked by them, please check if the story is really gone.
          Could be the case that wattpad already deleted it and also closed the users account and that’s why I can’t find it anymore, if so the problem is solved and your story is no longer plagiarized by the user.
          
          Have a nice weekend:) 

QueenMimi96

@Lelemontgomery Hey, thanks so much for getting back to me! That's great news! Yep, I just checked and I can't find it on my end either - just comes up as a blank error page. Ah, I'm so thankful the Staff were able to take care of the issue! Thanks so much for your involvement in this and taking care of it for me - it really means a lot!! ❤
            
            You too, hope you have a great weekend! ^_^!
