I wanted to post and make a large apology to those who used to or even recently found my work and wished there were more chapters. I have been struggling with a battle against depression for many years now, and I almost lost my fight. I am in a better place than I used to be, but I'm still relapsing into despair at times. Depression often becomes a lifelong battle against our own inner demons, and not everyone survives to fight another day. I want to remind you all that there is value in continuing the fight, there are people who love you and want to help, there are resources you can reach for, and you never have to do this alone. You are all beautiful inside and out, you are strong, and I'm proud of each and every one of you for getting this far. I desperately want to return to posting story updates, but it is very likely to be under a new account with a revamped outlook on my own work and the fantastical worlds I like to build. My perspective has changed with me over the years, I hope for the better, and I'm always trying to improve my craft. I still have every intention to keep writing and work towards independent publication. Again, I am so terribly sorry to those readers who feel I let them down or were disappointed in my disappearance. You deserve better than that, and I never meant to leave you all hanging. I hope you are all well and keeping safe in this troubling time. <3

@REPaige hey, it’s okay. It’s really important that you work on your mental health, and focus your energy on fighting the battle of depression. That’s not always easy, and I’m so glad that you’re okay! I’m glad you’re thinking about updating your stories again, but don’t feel too bad about it. Take care of yourself first. :)

Ocean Born has finally been updated!
          Also, there is now a new cover for the book! I hope you all love it as much as I do.
          
          I'm aiming to update more frequently, as long as my health stays on track / cooperates with me. Fingers crossed!

For those waiting on Ocean Born: I sincerely apologize for the long wait. I lost data before it was backed up, so I recently lost the next chapter that I was working on. I'm in the process of rewriting it now. Again, my sincere apologies to everyone.

I would just like to thank you for publishing a writing with the tag #ProjectEvangeline. I do recall you adding that tag a long time ago, but I don't think I've ever properly thanked you until now.
          
          We've just recently returned from a year long hiatus, and it warms my heart to see your work tagged, even after all this time.
          
          Thank you.

@ProjectEvangeline You are most welcome. It was an event that touched a lot of hearts here.
