I've been writing Motley Crue fanfiction on here for perhaps five or six years. It's been one of my favorite things to do. I've made many friends and explored many ideas. 
          
          However, six years is a long time to be stuck in such a small corner. Especially when you didn't create that corner. Basically, what I'm trying to say is, I'm feeling kind of burnt out on Motley Crue fanfiction. I just don't feel as immersed or inspired by it anymore, despite still loving the band as much as I ever have.
          
          That's not to say I'm going to completely stop writing it. Of course I'll still update my oneshots once in awhile. I might even open requests from time to time. And don't worry, I won't be deleting any of my work, nor will I be leaving Wattpad. 
          
          But, I want to spread my wings. I want to start focusing on creating stories based off my own original ideas. I actually have several OCs that have been in development since before the pandemic. I want to share them with you all. Most of them are kind of overpowered, haha! I love OP characters.
          
          With all that being said, I'd like to extend my sincerest gratitude to everyone who has supported me until now. I never thought I'd get many followers with how odd my writing can be, let alone over four hundred! I even met my best friend through Motley Crue fanfiction. But, as we've discussed, I believe it's time for this chapter in my life to come to at least a relative close. I hope to see you all on the journey ahead.

                                                                                                                                                                 Sunset

I'm trying to be more active and regain my community. I've fallen off so hard. I don't have as much time to post and when I do nobody gives it any engagement. I think I need to start branching out with my own ideas instead of just pigeonholing myself into one genre.

Hello my Darlings
                                                
          In the months that I've been away, Dr. Lee's character has developed a lot. To the point he's basically not even close to Tommy anymore. Aside from his appearance that is. 
          
          Bloodlust no longer reflects my vision of Dr. Lee. For this reason, I must regretfully inform you all that I'm taking the story down. 
          
          A new story with Dr. Lee will probably come out, but likely not for some time.  I have to get through all the requests on my Kink Oneshots first, then put some more time into Smitten (which I have sorely neglected), and of course focus on my schoolwork.
          
          I appreciate everyone who read and supported Bloodlust and I hope you all enjoy any story that replaces it.
          
          In the meantime, I could post a character page of Dr. Lee I made. Let me know if you guys wanna see it.

In light of Wattpad doing away with DMs, does anyone have any alternative ways for communicating with readers? Maybe a discord server?

It might be some time before Bloodlust is updated. It requires a lot of research and I want it to be perfect. 

Hey guys. I've been thinking of writing a Nikki x OC story to add some variety to my work. Feel free to throw some ideas at me.

I might be updating Bloodlust in two weeks
          I've been trying to adjust to college these last two years I'm so sorry I haven't been active 
          
          I'll also finish requests for the kink oneshots 

@SunsetSoulSaver you didn’t do anything wrong 

@Mrslukearnold By something I did or by the DM situation?

Wattpad took away DMs :(
          They probably have their reasons for it but it'll be a lot harder to discuss requests with my readers now
          I suppose I could use this conversation tab but that would result in the rest of my community getting spoilers
          Guess that's a sacrifice I'll have to make
