UPDATE!! – last one for a while
          
          Hello everyone! It’s been ages since my last update, so here we go...
          
          Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been thinking a lot about this account and what I want to do with it. I won’t sugarcoat it, I barely come on this app anymore. I still write, but now completely offline, and honestly, I enjoy it a lot more than I used to. There’s no rush, no frustration over publishing something I later want to change, and no constant pressure of feeling like I’ve failed for not posting.
          
          With a full-time job and my growing urge to ride my bike almost every day (summer is coming), it’s been hard to make any real progress here. I also find myself reading more than writing lately, and it’s actually a relief to do this just for myself, without any pressure.
          
          This account is turning 10 years old in October, even with a few hiatuses in between. Coming back and writing again was something I never thought I’d do, but I’m really glad I did.
          
          For now, I’ve decided to step away from Wattpad. Maybe I’ll come back someday and start again. Maybe I won’t. Maybe I’ll even publish something in the future, for real. I don’t know. Time will tell, I guess.
          
          But most importantly, I just want to say thank you. I’m so grateful for all of you I’ve met over the years. Some of you even became real friends from all around the world, which is incredible to me.
          
          If you’d like to keep in touch, you can find me on Instagram: @/zarahatchet (my new pen name).
          
          Take care, everyone <33

hello, everyone!　　— status update
          
          sooo, first of all, i'm happy to say it looks like i'm settling into this new phase of my life with my new full-time job, which i really like, and which by the way also seems to take up all the time i had on my hands before and used it to write :'D hence the lack of updates nowadays... i either ride my bike and keep up with my base training or read books and watched tv series after work, which somehow always end with me not opening any of my drafts here (maybe besides weekends)
          
          this is what troubles me a bit, because i don't like keeping you waiting for new updates which i know won't happen for weeks, but on the other hand i also don't want to give up wattpad and the friendships i made here, even though i don't have that much time to be here anymore (that sounds like forever, but i promise, it won't last that long)
          
          so, what i'm circling here is that i'm debating whether to take down the two books i've just started and continue working on them in my drafts, so i can publish them again once there are more chapters, or maybe they are fully finished, and i don't feel like abandoning them
          i'm preparing myself that this might push back on my enthusiasm to write, but i don't like how things are now either, and maybe writing for myself is what i need now idk
          
          anyway, i love everyone one of you who comes across this page and maybe even gives my books a try, your votes and comments are so so appreciated!! thank you! <3
          
          (ps. i'm not disappearing completely, whatever might happen to my unfinished books!)
