Hi there-  uhm I am not dead.  I actually have started moving accounts.  A sub account of mine has been doing much better over the years and I think it is time for a fresh start for me.  My new account is RHGoddess (though I may eventually rename it to be similar to this one) 
          	
          	This account will always be precious to me - I have owned it since I was 12/13.  Its been through many journeys with me so I’m admittedly a little sad to completely let it go.  So I will leave many stories available here as an archive.   Though many rewrites for these stories will be available on my new account. I hope this will appease readers who wanted to see continuations to these stories! Theres also an entirely new story on that account to enjoy too! 
          	
          	A little side note-  though Arimine will be reuploaded, I did alter how the final cliffhanger chapter ended slightly.  Its still the same but I made the scene a little less violent.  For the second draft I have been rereading arimine and the final scene available left a bad taste in my mouth.  Like the story beat is necessary for the characters and the sort of harsh reality of the world I wanted to portray but I don’t think it needed to be as graphic as it was?  Some may appreciate the detail but for me- I think the story beat is already traumatic enough without the added detail 。゚(゚´ω`゚)゚。Arimine has horror elements but its not drifto or TLG levels of horror, so I hope it makes that final scene more digestible-  even if the continuation will be on my new acc!  
          	
          	I will still update and chat on here, this accounts always going ti be available, especially since it archives almost all my books.  I may put some fun use to it.  But for now, know most my activity will be on my new acc!  I hope to see you there!!

Yal’ll pobably think I’m dead, but I’m not.  Actually I have been doing lots of work on my books pver the past year, I just haven’t uploaded anything, mostly because I hated how I would have nothing to upload for months due to uni work.  So in this time I have been absent, I have been stocking up on some chapters. I’ll most likely start uploading again soon- these uploads will hopefully span until summer every week or two when they start.  Then I will most likely start doing a stock up whilst uploading a chapter here or there during summer.  
          
          I also have been a bit more active on an alt account I have, I’ll annlunce it publicly soon!  But there is a book there that has been doing pretty well and though it’s not my usual serious drama content I hope you all like it when I do reveal it. Tbf when you see the links it’ll be pretty obvious 
          
          Thanks to anyone who still follows me on this account.  I will be more prominent on here again soon- really I felt like starting an alt account since I think with the age of this acc, it doesn’t really get the attention a newer one would. But this has been my account since pretty much the first year wattpad was a thing and I plan to keep it as my main.  
          
          I’m hoping the new decade will give me a new found resurgence in writing more- much rather, I feel more spirited to write than ever and I hope you all enjoy what is to come from that spirit from here on in! 
          
          The most exciting thing is definitely the drifting off rewrite. It’s taken me a while but I am significantly through arc one now. So I will be happy to upload book one soon! I;ve even started some of the art for it so kdmdmene this should be fun!

Arimine has new chapters though not uploaded. I found it less stressfuland easier to write it in my own time rather than keep to a schedule. I want to bulk upload all it’s chapter soon. For all it’s fans, hang in there, the story will continue soon! 
            
            I guess the main thing to say is happy new year! This is sort of the ten year anniversary of me starting drifto and taking my writing seriously (though it’s before my wattpad anniversary). So I hope to celerbrate drifto’s 10 year anniversary with it’s published first arc! Time to breathe new life into my largest series!

Heey,  
          
          I actually uploaded for the first time in months.  It’s just part one of the other book I mentioned before, the rest will be coming shortly.  
          
          So I really wanted to get this book uploaded ready in time for the watty’s which is why it has taken some foreground among others.  This was a promised rewrite- well it’s here.  The first chapter rewrite of the lonely girls, with the second quickly following soon.  
          
          This book was a very much beloved one by some of my older following.  If they are still active, I hope that they appreciate the new update.  It’s been fun going back to page one and really adding more depth to these characters. 
          
          
          You’ll notice a few changes, especially to arc one.  I have toned it waaaay down for arc one since in the original it was more like a final boss arc than a introduction one. So hopefully reading arc one will be a new experience for everyone.  Also just like how Arimine is split into books as well as some others, this book will be a volume series.  The original series had like two volumes worth of content so expect two volumes to be written pretty quickly (given the content is already here) 
          
          I hope you enjoy the new update to tlg, as well as the character refs that come with it!!

-Finally, thank you for sticking with me- my recommendation to Arimine readers is to maybe flick through the last few chapters (or re-read if you really wish) just to regain a feel for the story if you feel you have lost it. I understand how jarring reading the latest two chapters after all this time may be now.   It’s even been that way for me writing them which is why I went and re-read my own work.
          
          The sub books will come either before or after the Arimine update so I hope you enjoy them!  Thank you again for your unconditional support and patience.  I am truly grateful for your understanding in all this!  I will be updating again soon!  Peace ✌️

-  My last post didn’t post so a tl;dr
          
          -Yes Arimine will be this month
          -there will be side books  posted either before or after the Arimine updates- they were promised rewrites and updates
          -no they didn’t cut in my update time, they actually helped me stay motivated when I was loosing motivation
          -I’m spending this week to focus on my writing and nothing nor nobody else.  I give alot of my time to others- well not this week.
          -Hopefully I will learn to balance Uni and writing better- I will be focusing less on my art during uni terms- giving more time for uni work and writing

Much rather this past few months have- as mentioned -  been really busy for me.  Even after uni has ended, I have family issues to attend to,  work, friends wanting my time and attention, all while I have been trying to balance writing and art on top and the end result hasn’t really been fun for either. Because at home I can’t be given even 20 minutes to get into a mental state to write without having to do something else, it’s been tricky to write these past two chapters the way I wish to, hence the chapters have been sorta choppy.  Everything is there, I know how things should progress.  But personally I can’t help but feel everything is stuff just due to how cut up my progress with those chapters were.  
          
          So what is the long story short for Arimine.   I have two chapters. But I’m not happy with them.  I’m probably gonna heavily edit or even re-write them so they are alot more emotionally coherent.  Despite how dire this may sound, this progress has already started and I’m already preferring these chapters to the originals.  So the actual progress may takes less than two weeks.  I’m hoping that the effort for that shows when I do upload them.  
          
          
          I have also been working on unpublished stuff in the background.  Stuff I plan on uploading soon since I want to get a chance at the wattys again this year. Chances are you may see these before the arimine uploads.

So I apologise for Arimine being held pff as long as it has been, this wasn’t initially intended and actually I did/do havs a fair but written for it.   The problem I first came into with Arimine is firstly, fitting my writing in with both my artwork and uni stuff.   
          
          The second problem actually came with me not being so happy with the last two chapters.  One of the big things that helps me but gets in the way when I am writing is that in order to convey something correctly, I have to put alot of emotional energy into it. Like in the time I am writing, I am putting alot of myself into it, for me, that state of being where I am putting myself in the same emotional situation as my characters is really important.   So when I’m writing I actually get teary during sad scenes or actually feel a buzz of anger in angry scenes. Not because I’m actually sad or angry, but because in that moment I am writing I am those characters-  this helps me really get emotions across and stops things feeling too forced in the story. 
          
          So this is where problem one and two come together.   As I said before,  I need alot of emotional energy to write- especially heavy stuff like the topics dealt with the aftermath the Kyrie event,  which means I usually need alot of quiet and calm to do this stuff.   Unfortunately for me, this past 6 months have not given me that - tbc
