Today is my Birthday!

I have to stop starving my followers, bro. Each time I'm close to that 1k they slip away. Anyway '09 chapter is 74% done. Maybe if I'm bored, (Y/N) could crack pot in his room or something, idk.

I miss the days when I could receive inbox messages from real, breathing people. It looks so empty </3

I like how when I touched my '09 draft that I got a nosebleed

Do I push out the '09 chapter is only roughly at 3k words since I last checked it or do I drop KNY's finished fic that is only 2k words with a disclaimer and bio already completed.. Fuck it, I'll do one today, and the other releasing tomorrow

Gonna feel dumb for asking, but for any writers here on Wattpad, have y'all ever use the Story Notes feature? I'm gonna be honest, I never did.

"To write well, one must research their respective character. Consume all media about them: their hobbies, their interests, their relationships, even their gooner art if you have to. Once you know them better than any other fan, then you write. WRITE UNTIL THERE IS NOTHING LEFT!" - Shadow_Collective99, 2026

Collective assemble!
          
          If y'all had applications, websites, or any suggestions on how to make better fanfiction cover art, let me know!
          
          And I guess if you're still camping out for Chapter 17, then I'll have to give you hope and burst your bubble at the same time. For Chapter 17 will be the first and last chapter I ever publish for that book. I just can't reciprocate the same love for '09 anymore. It's just.. gone.
          
          This friday, I learned more about burnout and the reason why I got burned out on my '09 fanfic is that I was not operating on my optimum stress levels. And like any dumb creator of anything good and joy in this world, I was not expecting my fanfic to blow up. It was just going to be: "self-insert cringe crusty ass boy trying to fit in '09 and fails miserably", and I didn't expect to come thus far.
          
          But for a bubble that has popped, another is blown. My new fixation is My Little Pony now. Apologizing again for everyone I let down (again), I won't do it again, but I can't guarantee it.
          
          Stay hunting, Collective!

Birthday is coming... Must.. lock in..

Snowing outside again. Hopefully my net doesn't go out, lol.
