hey guys!
          
          i wanted to update anyone who is waiting for an update on Empire. 
          
          but first.. a little update on me :)
          soooo.. last month i was in a car accident (literally two weeks ago today) luckily nothing too bad happened, no broken bones, just some nasty bruises and a totaled car. 
          i just turned 25 the other day so my frontal lobe is fully developed!! 
          
          back to Empire.. 
          when i went through and edited Empire at the beginning of the year, it was right before i decided to get back into doing musical theatre, so before i had full intention of writing, buy i just missed what i love to do. so basically since march i have been going to work, relaxing for a few hours, going to rehearsal, sleep, then do it all again the next morning. so needless to say, finding time to write has been difficult. 
          BUT DO NOT FRET. EMPIRE WILL BE WORKED ON! i actively have chapter 21 half done in my drafts, so i am actively working on it. 
          
          something that helps give me motivation is when people comment that they enjoy it. and lots of you have been doing that and it fills my heart with joy :’) i am my own worst critic so any type of praise just means the world to me. 
          
          i promise to get my butt into gear this holiday season, and i hope you still follow along w this story. 
          
          MUCH LOVE!
          & Happy Holidays

SOON. 

Hey yous
          so I've noticed that some authors have been having issues and their stories have been deleted. I just wanted to let everyone know that I finally went through and saved all of the chapters of Empire and the intro and chapter 1 of Bending to my google docs, so that if for some reason anything gets deleted I have a backup copy. 
          
          But if one of them happens to be deleted, I will try to put them back up asap, or if i don't see myself continuing on w either of them and they are deleted then I might not. 
          This is just a precaution :)
          
          Also, with this being said, I have not lost interest in either of my stories, I am just really bad at sitting down and writing. (Bending though is kinda on a hold just because I want to get more of Empire out before I REALLY dive into it bc I already know that one is going to be a doozy for me)
          
          But if you are reading this message and read my silly stories, once again, thank you for putting up w me and I love you so so much!
          
          Stay safe out there!

HI. if you’ve already read ch 19, you’re going to want to reread the ending of it once i republish it. i forgot to add something to it that leads into ch 20 
          lmao i just realized this OOPS

CHAPTER NINETEEN*
          
          “Please let me keep you safe”

just wanted to let yall know where i’m at w writing since it’s been like a month since the big edit i did on empire (oops) 
          
          im struggling writing chapter 19 but i am actively writing ch 20. i know how 19 ends in my mind to lead into 20  it’s the writing part that gets me (19 may or may not be a ️ chapter and it may or may not be the reason why im struggling) 
          
          but i just wanted to let yall know who actively read it that i am stilling writing its just hard haha, so hopefully when i get ch 19 done i can publish 20 as well for a lil double update since yall deserve it 
          
          love yall!

in light of recent events. zayn will no longer be a character in bending. once i actually start to write it i will fix it (luckily i’ve barley started it so it’s not a big deal) 
          
          but as i’ve been editing/writing empire, i’ve kinda enjoyed just writing harry and not the ot5 so i might recast bending before i really get started on it and just keep harry and the mc faceclaims (might keep niall, im still undecided) 
          
          but like i said, i haven’t touched bending since editing empire so who knows what will happen. 
          
          i’ll keep yall up to date obvi. 
          
          STAY SAFE OUT THERE!!
          much love - belles 

OKAY. all of the chapters that i needed to edit for empire are done! (yay everybody cheer) so from now on chapters will be new!

sorry i kinda lied yesterday. i have like three more chapters to edit and they are the ones that i had difficulty writing in the beginning so they are taking me a bit longer to fix up. i promise to have the rest out today!!
