I hope all of you are doing well at the end of this year. I wanted to thank you so much for supporting me throughout these months, through the ups and the downs that is my life. I'm proud to say that I wrote 254,908 fanfiction words this year. Which is absolutely astonishing to me. I spent 6,938 minutes writing. Which is the equivalent of almost 5 days straight of writing. I've switched jobs (yet again) and have been spending these past few weeks working on myself. Really just getting my life back in order and learning to prioritize my health and well being. For this next year, I have joined a quest with some of my writing friends. It's called a Milli Word, and the goal is to write 1 million words in 2025. I'm so excited to continue building worlds and sharing adventures with you. I'm also excited to announce that I have officially begun the rough draft for the first completely OC book. My secondary goal is to publishing this time next year. Thank you again SO MUCH for all the support and love you've given me this year. I really am not sure I would have continued to pursue writing without it as there were so many times I debated if I was good enough. Let's have some fun this year and see where the words take us! -Book

Hello lovely, I just wanted to check in and make sure you were okay. We haven't heard from you in a while, and you seemed so motivated to write more proactively, so I wanted to see if everything was alright. This is NOT me pressuring you to write more, just making sure you're alive and taking care of yourself. I know the world is burning chaos right now, but I wanted to reach out and see how you were holding up <3

@my_life_sucks123 Thank you for checking in. I'm still motivated towards writing more this year. I'm currently letting my body recover from burnout from my previous job. I'm also in the process of getting an adhd diagnosis, because my keeps getting worse. Also kinda feel like I'm in a doomsday prepping situation right now. So I'm trying to back fill my pantry as much as possible for the next 4 years while also starting a greenhouse. I'm hopeful to start up again closer to the end of the month, but we'll see how I'm feeling

For those of you that got the notification for When Stars Align. I'm so sorry. I got confused on if I had uploaded a chapter already or not. (Hint, I had) so I accidentally uploaded chapter 18 again. I then immediately took it down. Chapter 19 is in the works.

@naaathinthestars We're still in the running for the challenge. I'm at 69,000 ish words right now. I'm behind by about 60,000 words but we're still pushing ahead. Work was just kicking my ass for my last two weeks so I haven't been able to get as many words daily as I would have liked. I'm off work for the next 10 days, until my new job starts, so I'm aiming for 10,000+ word days for that span of time.

So, I am currently sitting in a word deficient of 17,494 behind where I wanted to be at this point. Yes this is a large number, but I am not losing hope. So far we've 4,860 words today in a little under 2.5 hours of writing. Or about 32.5 words per minute. I am planning on continuing to write for the next 5 to 6 hours. So hopefully, we see at least another 10,000 words added to this number. Ideally, my goal is to make up the 17,000 words today, but that's a pretty steep mountain to climb. Regardless, expect some large chapter dumps/updates in the next day or so.

Fun and exciting update for everyone. My writing friends decided I have not been writing enough this year. I have officially been added into a writing challenge. 250,000 words over the next 44 days. Or roughly 5,500 words per day. What does that mean for you, well... that roughly translates to 2 chapters a day for the next month or so. Each update will have where we got to words count wise and what day we're at for the challenge. I'm hoping you'll all be able to cheer me on! -Book
