Hello readers!
          	
          	So...I kind of vanished for a bit, and I completely apologize for that. Life came at me fast these past few weeks, and I haven't been able to keep up with anything these days. I wanted to pop in and say that I'm really sorry for disappearing without warning. I love writing and being here, but right now I need a little time to get my life untangled and organize everything. 
          	
          	I'll still be on hiatus for a couple more weeks, probably until the first half of December.
          	
          	A few things worth mentioning: 
          	
          	- I'll be changing my username from @black_writes_red to @evie.r.black (or any combo of that)
          	- I finally made an Ao3 account. I'm still figuring out the website and the workings of it, but once I do, I'll be posting my stories there too, including NSID
          	- That Sick Lunacy will stay on Wattpad, and it'll also be available on Ao3
          	- As for NSID...I'm still deciding whether to repost it on Wattpad. I don't want it taken down again and lose everything. That pain was already too much the first time. 
          	
          	Thank you all for being insanely patient and kind. I promise I'm not abandoning anything, I'm just taking a short pause so I can come back with better chapters, better health and fewer existential meltdowns.  
          	
          	Love you,
          	Evie.

Hello everybody!
          
          It’s been almost two weeks since No Shame in Desiring was taken down, and I still haven’t received any response from Wattpad.
          
          I’ve taken this time to think about what to do next, but to be honest, I’m still shaken and heartbroken over this loss. It doesn’t feel real to see something I poured myself into just vanish. 
          
          Here are some of the options I’ve been considering, and I’d truly appreciate your thoughts and support:
          
          A) Create a new account, since Wattpad has flagged my current one for reasons I still don’t understand. If I go this route, it’ll take a few months to transfer all my books over.
          
          B) Stay on this account and focus on writing new books, but No Shame in Desiring won’t be coming back here. (Even if I tried to reupload it, Wattpad might just remove it again.)
          
          C) Continue writing my new books here, but upload No Shame in Desiring to another platform (like Inkitt, AO3, or a personal blog), where it will be safe and complete.
          
          This whole experience has been frustrating, but your messages and support mean more to me than I can put into words. Whatever happens, I want you to know I’m not giving up on writing, and I hope you’ll stick with me as I figure out the best path forward.
          
          Love.
          Evie. R. Black

@black_writes_red you could try opening a new acc and just post nsid on there and continue w the rest of your books on here, or you could also just post on ao3 maybe that'd be nice too

            I'm a huge bookworm. No Shame in Desiring is hands down the best book I have ever read.  Honestly, you have more writing talent than anyone I've ever read. I'd love to see it either here again or on another site. Not sure why it got flagged or taken down, SMH. You've inspired me to write a little more. Even if it's just completly gibberish at this point. Deff a book I would spend some good money on just to read it.  Best Regards

Hello readers!
          
          Unfortunately, No Shame in Desiring has been taken down due to some issues with Wattpad. I’ve sent an email and submitted an appeal, and I’m hoping everything will be resolved soon!
          
          It’s frustrating and heartbreaking to see my story completely gone. Until this is sorted, I’ll keep trying my best to have NSID back (probably sacrificing a bit of sleep in the process). Thank you all so much for your support and love; it truly means the world.
          
          P.S. If someone has any suggestions or alternatives in the meantime, it would be a huge help to hear some of those. 
          
          Love,
          Evie R Black

@thehumanjournal 
            I found out about it just a few minutes before you did. There were a few issues with Wattpad, and they decided to take down my story without any warning. Honestly, I’m still in shock and have no idea how to feel

Hello readers! 
          I’m so excited to share my new story, That Sick Lunacy, and hopefully you’ll all enjoy it. 
          I’ve been working on it for a super long time and even though I’m not a hundred percent proud of it, I didn’t want this to remain in my drafts.
          Thank you all for the support and sweet comments and reviews. They really encouraged me to keep going <333

Heyy, I've just finished all the wicked bonds which was amazingggg. I was wondering what's going on with the second book?!?!
          
           Also I love love love all your other books especially Jake's Kennedy, her humour  made me laugh sooo much and No shame in desiring, seeing Castle and Holly's relationship developing was so powerful and wholesome

black_writes_red

@Gracie6311 Ah, unfortunately, there won’t be a second book for ATWB due to various reasons. I’m glad you gave a chance to my other books tho and I thank you a lot for that <3

Hii,I like to read stories about mental health, self-harm, bullying, child abuse. In the dozens of stories I read, 'No Shame In Desiring' is first story made me cry for 2 days.My eyes are swollen and my head is dizzy from crying.I know this story is about Holly and Castle but every chapter, I wait for Sean to appear. I couldn't read the last chapter about Sean completely because I was very afraid, sad and  so many tears came out that I couldn't read and make  my eyes so blurry.Sean's parents really deserved to die..the pure heart 5 years old kid..lived 12 years in very cruel suffering. I hope you can make a story about Sean and the girl. I want Sean to have a happy ending. The girl gave light, spirit in Sean's life..the lost star that appeared restored the light in Sean's life. Sean deserves to live and find happiness..please make a story about Sean's life after he was free from the suffering of his parents..I'm afraid I'm going crazy because I really want to know about Sean life.Ohh,my Sean...I've will been waiting for months, years, until you release the story about Sean.i dont care,i really want you to make story about Sean.my heart is hurt think about Sean.tq so much for this story that really touched my heart. I'm so OBSESSED with this story..it my favourite book that i've   read on thiss app!!!..

@black_writes_red 
            OMG..tq for reply my message.We don't know what the future holds, and i really dont know how was your plan for the future,but hopefully one day when you have no more ideas for stories, you'll be open to writing stories about Sean but i really hope that you could make a story about sean in the future. im so invested on his story..tq for eveything and I LOVE YOU . #Did you know, this is the first time I've left a comment or message to the author of a story I read.. I'm so embarrassed.

            Your message genuinely touched me. Thank you so much for feeling Sean’s story so deeply. It means the world to know that these characters stayed with you like that. While I don’t have plans to write a separate story for Sean, knowing he meant so much to you reminds me why I write at all. <3 Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

@pretty00_ After reading this story, I want to take a break for a while before reading another story...I really can't read stories about abuse after this..I have to take a break..maybe I can read something light first..but today I want to draw to clear my mind..HAHAHAHHAH...And i happy for the light that Holly give to Castle..I really happy for them..Castle deserve it.. I hope Sean also can find the LIGHT for his life..LOVE YOU and thank you for this AMAZING story..English is not my main language but I hope you understand what I want to say from the bottom of my heart..there is so much more I want to say but I am not good at writing and expressing it.LASTLY,,THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING

Hiii!! l've read almost all your books so far and i am in LOVE with your writing. I love your plots and the way you describe the characters emotions and what they're thinking. I was wondering if you could write a book with a black or mixed female main character with a white male love interest? I can never find any good ones and i feel like you could come up with an amazing storyline!!!

black_writes_red

@obxlocal Heyy thank you so much for reading my books! Your feedback means a lot. As to your question, I have thought about it before and hopefully in future I get to write a book like that. There’s still so much for me to learn and open my mind to. I don’t want to accidentally offend anyone with my limited experiences. I appreciate you reaching out to me <3
