@Jesusismysavior123 Thank you so much <3 
            
            I hope you’re doing well? ☺️ It makes me incredibly happy to see that it isn’t just me that cares for Sal and Elvis’ story. With writing I’m pretty much at the same place I was when I wrote the last update in The Writing Nook. Writing moves in waves now, because life just gets in the way at ceirtain times, but it does move forward. Just a bit slow, both because of things outside of my control and because the story needs care and effort. There are weeks and months that I work on the story everyday, and there are weeks where I’m not able to get to it. But I always come back to it. Sal and Elvis’ story still is my main passion in life. Almost like my lifeline in a way. I’m making sure it turns into what it’s supposed to become, and give it it all I’ve got whenever I can ❤️ 

Oh my goodness!! I’m sorry for your loss. Hope you feel better soon

Hi :) Thank you for checking in! I truly appreciate it! It means a lot ❤️ I’ll reply with how it’s going as soon as I can. A family member sadly passed away at the start of this week, and I’ve gotten a back injury on top of that ❤️ I did write a bit about how it’s going with the story in The Writing Nook ☺️ 

@Jesusismysavior123 Of course! I have thought about opening up for beta readers, but I haven't decided yet. I'm worried it will create more pressure than productivity. But, the story will continue ^_^

Okay!! Thanks so much

@Jesusismysavior123 Hi! Thank you from the bottom of my heart, for sharing my love for these stories. I work on None of Mine everyday, so at some point in the future you'll be able to read the continuation. I'm soon coming out with a look into where I'm at with book 2 and my writing process in 'The Writing Nook'. Overall, I made the decision to complete the draft of book 2 before I go into editing and posting on a schedule again. This is what worked with book 1, and I've come to realize I should have done from the get-go with book 2 as well. This means there will be a greater wait—trust me it has not been an easy decision. I know it can be daunting to wait for a sequel for long periods of times. I would not have made that decision if it had not been for the best for the story.

Thank you! <3 I’ve loved getting to read your thoughts on where the story is going!

@SiljeWrites I'm so glad I could make you smile it means alot that there is someone out there that's like me . You've inspired me to write myself.  My papa passed away a few years ago unfortunately we had a connection like no one else. When I lost him I felt like I lost a piece of myself but whenever I realized music was what I needed to do I thought it was a blessing sent by him to make me happy . I'm not only doing this for me I'm doing this for him . Your grandmother is proud of you never forget that 

@Ezmeetjeuh0909 I couldn't help but both shed a tear and smile, reading about that new star in the sky. Thank you for your words, I truly appreciate them from the bottom of my heart, and I am doing better now ❤️ She was just one year older than Elvis was, born in 1934. And she got to live those years I write about now, being young in the 1950s. I've seen so many new pictures of her the last few weeks, during that time, in old photo albums. And it made me think of how you've shared that you collect some of the things I do too, like old car models. I wish I'd known more about her life during that time, but in a way we get to explore it through writing, reading and collections of things. I'm picking up where I left of now, with author questions and writing (and I hope to soon get that edited book 1 chapter I've been working on up soon.) Lot's of love from Silje

@Elvis_68 It is really a beautiful statement, sharing that these stories makes you feel like your problems are a million miles away. In a way, I wrote them for that exact reason. It is something we share.

@SiljeWrites The genie, I need my three wishes

@SiljeWrites probably professor McGonagall from the harry potter series . I've always loved her character she seems really wise . 
            I would ask her about the history of hogwarts and her upbringing . 

@SiljeWrites my favorite part of Wendy's story is her not wanting to grow up and peter pan gives her the freedom of childhood and just being free before growing up and their final goodbye broke my heart . I love when Wendy gets shot down and they build a house around her and ask her to be the lost boys mother it's just adorable !

@Elvis_68 That is a magical choice! Quite an adventurous world to live in, and you’d truly be part of a fairytale world ☺️✨ Writing and creating stories in general has a lot to do with who Peter Pan and Wendy is, while Wendy also relates a lot to the real world. Is there any part of Wendy’s story you see as your favorite? 
            
            And the mention of Sal? Just thank you! Really! I’m thrilled ✨❤️ I can’t wait to show more of her story with you!

@SiljeWrites that's so hard to say lol but definitely Sal because obviously   I read alot of books growing up and for some reason I always envisioned myself as Wendy is jm barries peter pan idk why 

@SiljeWrites I sing the blues , jazz, gospel , country mostly I really do enjoy it I have plans of becoming a major artist .the music industry is much different than it was when elvis was still living but I pray everyday.  I feel so lucky being able to see his home I actually got to touch his cape very surreal  . Weird how you feel so connected to someone you've never met .
            Sometimes it's hard finding motivation to write but then I always remind myself that I could inspire someone else to write or sing or be a huge elvis fan , it's hard sometimes to get people to understand the vision .

@Elvis_68 Wow! What an experience it must have been, going to Graceland, and actually being in that place three times! I can imagine you take in more for each time you've been there? I got the biggest smile, getting to hear how it changed your life. What kind of music do you sing? When it comes to wording things, we have the same experience. What really did change things for me was allowing the first draft to be messy, and let the plot, dialogue and story take the first seat. How we word things can get more precise and understandable over time. I'm so glad you love your story so far. Not quite anything else that makes me as happy as writing. And I just love that you're planning several books! It is the best thing when there is so many ideas you can't contain it within one book. I have watched a couple of episodes of the series you're watching, if it is the one I'm thinking of. It is very interesting!

@SiljeWrites I decided to write about a week ago after watching the series with all of his lovers over his life time and watching all the interviews of people that knew him , like how it would be to actually be in a room with him. 
            I've been to graceland three times now and actually standing where he once stood was extremely life changing now I am a singer and a guitarist , I am definitely having fun but sometimes I have trouble wording certain things so that the audience will understand. 
            I love my story so far I pretty much have the entire story line and will most likely be in different books like you'res because there is so many details !!
