Hii, I just re-uploaded the first few chapters of Chatty Town with some improvements… I guess we could call this the unofficial 2nd Edition of Chatty Town ❤︎
          
          I will be uploading more chapters each Monday morning MST.
          
          Love, Astrid 

Happy October 13th ❤︎ My favorite day in the Gregorian calendar 
          
          I’ve decided I’d come back to writing here. I took an unexpected break last year when my hamster got sick so I could focus my attention on nursing him back to health… which worked… for a month.
          
          When he passed, I lost myself in grief that was soon interrupted by a toxic relationship with a guy. I kept writing, in private, but three months later, my dog of 14 years passed suddenly and I completely broke down. I threw myself into my career and my relationship to distract myself from the grief I couldn’t bear to embrace. And two months after that, my grandmother wanted to give our cats away. Four months later, I realized I couldn’t stay in a toxic relationship *and* continue ignoring all the grief that was piling up. So I broke up with the guy, closed my shop and took nine months to dive into myself, grieve and heal to come back anew.
          
          I will always be healing, and I will always be a work in progress, but I’ve healed enough to find stability and balance within myself so I will never drown again. 
          
          So I’m coming back ✨ Thank you for being here.
          
          With love, Astrid 

❤︎ Happy Valentine's Day! ❤︎ 
          
          I just uploaded a new story, Finding Solace. I've been working on it on and off since April 2023 and you might-- hopefully-- recognize it as the book from Chatty Town! This is the First Edition that Zephyr is reading throughout the novel; and it holds a special place in my heart. 
          
          Originally I was going to release 8 parts {chapters} today, but I thought I'd do a slow release since it is a slow burn romance. 
          It's a lot different from what I'm used to writing and it's different from Chatty Town but I've had a lot of fun writing it.
          
          I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do!
          
          Look out for a detailed blurb of Finding Solace coming later this week! 
          P.S. I hope y'all had a memorable vday ❤︎  good night.

I just added a trigger and content warning section for Chatty Town for anyone who's interested in that, it's the first part {chapter} of the book now. 
          
          As the story progresses I may need to update the TW+CW, if that happens I'll announce the update here ◡̈ 

I have another story up my sleeve. I've been holding onto it afraid to upload it but I think February is the perfect time to hit publish on it. Keep your eyes out for Finding Solace, first 8 chapters will be up for Valentine's Day 2024.

Just uploaded Chapter 18! {I know it's been a while...} Welcome to act 2, where we find out more about Arden and Chatty Town from the Gelium's themselves. Honestly, I'm excited for the next few chapters to follow

Chapter 15 of Chatty Town is coming in thirty minutes!! ༄ؘ ۪۪۫۫

Boo! Ѽ Happy October!!
          
          I hope everyone's having a wonderful day. I know I'm a bit behind on Chatty Town, I just started classes last month and it's been a little chaotic trying to balance it with everything else in my life, but thankfully after this Tuesday, I go on a two week break!! So my goal is to pump out 10 more chapters in this time. I've also made some progress on my playlists for some of Chatty Town's main characters so I'll be releasing those here soon! So don't worry, I haven't forgotten about Rowan and the Rebels. I'll let you get back to your regular Sunday programs now, lol ♡

got a new pfp inspired by Wren, from Chatty Town... I just wish they had blonde hair lol
