I like reading your stories but your health comes first. So take a break and chill out, get better  then go from there. I was wondering if you did have any other stories other than the bad batch fandom?  Hope you get feeling better

@Shadow7567  Thank you I will read it when I get a chance.  I hate college

@Cathycat23 glad you enjoy them! <3 <3 
            And thank you for the well wishes! 
            
            I have very few that are published, and actually the only one is a Tintin fic that focuses on the sailors from the movie and comes before the main Bad Batch series. It's not fully posted yet, but I post snippets and things time to time about it over here:  https://www.tumblr.com/shads-shipposts 
            
            I also had an original short story up (3 chapters) but recently took it down since I'm reworking it in the future and the lore is super outdated ^^

Heads up, here is a link to a much longer update post regarding the hiatus and overall future of Adventures!AU.

@NikanB Oh man I HATE how tumblr does that thing where you have to get an account to view things further. A lot of it was more fluff about the future of the series, but the main thing you missed is Adventures!AU is being shortened and most likely there will only be two more published stories after TtFR, ending the series in 2030 (hopefully). 
            Thank you for being understanding about the break though, and thank you for the well wishes! <3

Just a heads up, the next chapter of "Fallen Not Forgotten" is coming out sometime this month, but it will unfortunately be the last chapter. I initially had 20 chapters planned, but I got so stressed out about the series that I may or may not have triggered my acid reflux BAD and have been physically ill for the past few weeks. Annndd the symptoms of that have triggered some REALLY BAD health anxiety fears so drastic steps had to be taken to keep me from a total breakdown and I'm more or less shortening and combining the last four planned chapters into a single chapter. 
           
          Hate to do that, but it's a matter of health at this point. Additionally, Adventures!AU has undergone a MAJOR shift in plotline and trajectory so I kinda just want to go ahead and close the book on all Adventures!AU content past TtFR so I can focus on the new future of the series. 
          
          I'm probably gonna make another, more explanation-heavy post in the next week or so (next Saturday probably) but for now I'll just leave it at that. 
          
          Sorry to disappoint, and sorry for the janky quality coming up for chapter 17 of Fallen Not Forgotten. 
          
          In the meantime, while you await the dumpster fire, enjoy this new cover for "Off to a Great Start", which is getting renamed to "The Adventure Begins" for its remaster! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1znQLxTv844az5On_bOxN08v2WWa9B37n/view?usp=sharing 
          Lovely art by my bud Arven92 in DeviantArt!

Hello, I just want to ask some advice for my own creations and Star Wars insert story, if that's okay with you
          But I am having trouble making a name for my oc species. How did you come up with the name for the Alphian species?

MistyNickerson

Would you mind if I suggested some names and you can help me pick the best one?

MistyNickerson

I'm having a little trouble naming my oc species but I guess you could say I have their hybrid form done

            That's very simple and yet extremely creative at the same time!

It seems as though Wattpad has gone the way of Deviant Art and sold out to another company, and DMs were sent to the chopping block. 
          
          If y'all want to reach me privately, you can do so through my discord (shadowhyder)! Or you can come say hi in my story server, Shadow's Stories (https://discord.gg/Kw8DjaCdgm). I post WIPs and upcoming projects there often :D
          
          Hopefully the purchase of Wattpad doesn't have results as bad as the calamity that was the downfall of Deviant Art, so I can keep posting stories here ^^

@Ahsoka-Ashla-Tano I’m not EXACTLY sure why they were axed, but it probably had to do something with the cost of messaging servers or something like that. The pervert thing could definitely have contributed tho! I know that was a major issue

@Shadow7567 Oh is that why DMs are gone? I thought it was because they wanted to get rid of perverts harassing people but that makes sense

Hope y'all are ready for more Adventures!AU content! Two new chapters of Fallen Not Forgotten are heading your way Saturday, Star Wars day!
          
          TtFR will remain on hiatus until 2025 Jan so I can finish out FNF this year (chapters 13-20). Due to dissatisfaction with both FNF and C,MtC those two books are now "non-canon" and should be considered like rough drafts/concept mapping. The general premise (meeting Cody and rescuing Domino) are canon but specifics are not. The updated and canon versions will be posted in the early 2030s. 
          
          I'll be finishing TtFR in the meantime, as well as posting not only "Welcome to War Games "(book 4) but also "Anachronism", which follows Shadow's adventures in the 2011 Tintin movie prior to the events of OtaGS. 
          
          Speaking of, a complete remaster of OtaGS with chapter polishing and new scenes is coming in July! That will be posted on an account dedicated to remastered versions, found here: https://www.wattpad.com/user/AdventuresAU99 . Until then, I'm posting WIPs and such on the discord server for Adventures!AU. 
          
          That was a lot, but happy May 1st everyone! I'm finally done with my Masters so I can dedicate more energy to these stories, I've missed them so much.

@NikanB Thank you so much! <3 <3

Just a heads up, if you see anything in your inbox about story updates I'm sorry to say there are no chapter updates, I'm mainly updating the covers/titles for organizational reasons. Sorry for the disappointment!
          
          Keep an eye out in June tho 

Shadow7567

Just a heads up, one week left to get orders in for hardcopies of my Bad batch Adventures!AU “Off to a Great Start” ($30) or “Over the River and Through the Woods” ($40)! Both come with a digital character headshot (neck up) and OtR includes a pretty rock!
          I’ll be submitting the order on the 10th✨

Shadow7567

Just a note, currently I can only ship within the US! Sorry for the inconvenience!
