hey dimes,
          	
          	i don't know if any of you noticed, but my book split was taken down by wattpad about two weeks ago due to it violating content guidelines. ever since it got taken down, ive been trying to get it back up by sending an appeal, but as of today, i am now 99% sure it is probably not going to be ever restored.
          	
          	before you attack wattpad, i have to say that i do completely understand the reason as to why they took it down and what guideline it broke specifically. the scene in the prologue was very intense, and without context, it definitely seems as if it is something to be concerned about. with context, though, it is very understandable as to why i included that scene.
          	
          	split was written as a book to help educate others on the largely stigmatized mental health disorder, dissociative identity disorder. in order for someone to be diagnosed with this disorder, they must have had gone through extreme repeated trauma as a young child. in my book, in order for people to understand the severity of the conditions needed for this disorder to form, i decided to write the prologue depicting an example of the kind of trauma that a child may need to experience in order to develop this disorder. this was very likely what got my book taken down. while i could have skipped over it, i feel like it was necessary to include it because in this disorder, it is impossible to divorce trauma from the formation of this disorder. not writing it felt like it would be a glamorizing disingenuous portrayal of the disorder which is not what i wanted.
          	
          	i am honestly really sad about this. split was my first ever book and it was my most read book (i believe it was at about 115k reads when it got taken down). ill never forget about it even though its not here anymore. it was very important to me even though it had its flaws, and it'll always be one of the most important works to me in my journey as a writer.
          	
          	thank you guys for your support. i really appreciate it.

@Jungkooks_Stolen_Pan i unfortunately don't have it written down somewhere else :(. i remember being told that i should always back up my work but i am a fool and didn't listen, mainly because i didn't expect my work to ever actually be taken down. i doubt that putting more specific trigger warnings would prevent it from being taken down again because i already had really detailed trigger warnings on it already. i'm really sorry :(

@ShainaN23 im really sorry, but i had to put termination on hiatus for a bunch of reasons, mainly because not many people were reading it and it wasnt planned very well. i might continue it again in the future, but right now i have no plans to do so. sorry again, but thanks for your support!

hey dimes, i wanted to give a little bit of an update on where i've been and stuff. i first want to deeply apologize for literally disappearing for so long. school has been really taking a toll on me, and ever since college started for me almost two years ago now, the workload has been getting progressively larger and larger. i barely had time to really do anything this past semester, hence the lack of updates on spidey sense :(. not only that, my mental health has also been sort of progressively getting worse so that's fun. i feel really bad that i haven't been that active. i don't really check wattpad as often as i used to and i haven't posted a chapter literally since last year. i'm so sorry guys :(
          
          spidey sense has been a large project and i definitely anticipated me taking a long break on it. i literally started planning it in my last year of high school and now I'm about to go into my third year of college (wtf). i hate admitting the fact that i've kind of lost motivation writing it because of how long it is, but god, i really wish i had the will to finish it because i'm so close. it might have been foolish of me to take on such a large project without knowing if i'd be able to finish it. i will promise you though that i will finish it some day. i just don't know when it is.
          
          i really wish i could go back to writing like i used to. i used to update every single day. like i would stay up late on a school night every day just to write. i literally finished like seven books within seven months which is actual insanity. i used to get so mad at myself if i missed a single day, but now i missed like eight months. yikes.
          
          another factor as to why i haven't been writing would probably be because in my real life, i have a lot of other large projects going on. i haven't really been prioritizing writing on here because i feel like it won't really affect me on things that really matter to me in life.
