charis

heyyyyy so i'll be at camp next week,
          so i'm going to try and get two, maybe three chapters completed and updated by saturday. be expecting an update soon! :)

ALASKA UPDATE!!!!!!
          okay so me and my brother are going to order parts and build a small computer. hopefully we will have it finished by the end of this next month but i'm also going to move soon so i may not have time to write much. 
          i also have done some research and set up a storyline and personal background for a character that i'm *hoping* to introduce in the next few chapters. i'm super excited bc i love them so much and ugh i just can't wait to write them. i'm also going to make chapters longer- i might even double their length, but idk- you can't have too many plot/setting/pov/etc. changes in one chapter, y'know what i mean?

okay so i don't have a computer right now. i have "alaska." saved onto a flash drive atm, but i'll have to wait until i get another laptop or me and my brother build another computer in order for me to write. some people have gotten a bit upset that i do not have much written at all on chapter five, but please understand something: things change drastically in five. four was emotionally taxing on me and five is going to be extremely tough to transition into. i also have to write character backgrounds from five-six on and also major plot points because i currently have it all in my head and it's slowly turning from sunny side up to scrambled. all in all, it's going to be a long while before i can update, maybe even write.

hey guys, there's going to be a delay on chapter five. i had my laptop taken up yesterday (it's a school-issued laptop and they took all of them up) and i won't get it back until friday. i already have a bit of chapter five written, but i won't be able to write on it till friday. so yeah, there's going to be a four or five day delay on alaska. i apologize but there's really nothing i can do.

ayyyyyy disregard my last update, I figured out the formatting issue and now chapter four looks really pretty
          all the more reason to gO READ IT

y'all, i apologize for the poor formatting that "alaska." is in. I write it on a laptop using Word, so I have to copy and paste it in an email to myself then redo italics and bold on here. I don't know why it's deleting my indentations and stuff, but oh well.

'bout to do a double update with three + four on alaska.
          be prepared.

ha remember when i said i was going to update chapter three?
          like three weeks ago?
          HA
          sorry guys
          but fr I don't update til i have the chapter after it done
          and chapter four is difficult to write bc stuff
          school has me struggling right now
          like okay imagine a spilled 2-liter of coke
          now imagine trying to mop it up with one napkin and watching as the napkin slowly dissolves into nothingness
          yeah
          that's me trying to get my life together
          I'M A TERRIBLE PERSON I KNOW I'VE HAD Y'ALL HANGING FOR A MONTH NOW
          a'ight i'm going to go wallow in my guilt and sorrow
          charis out you little rays of sunshine -✌️

in regards to alaska.
          
          i am going to try to update chapter three by the end of the week, but i'm still working on chapter four. 
          CHAPTER THREE WILL BE UP BY THIS TIME NEXT WEEK IF THERE ARE ANY FURTHER DELAYS.
          thanks guys :)

okay, here's the plan for “alaska."
          
          i'll try to post often. this may not happen, but please note i will try.
          i will post chapter two when i'm completed with chapter four.
          i would be on chapter seven by now, but i put chapter three on hold for around six weeks.
          oh . that's my fault.
          
          hOwEvErRrRrRrR.....
          next friday, i have a half day and i plan to spend it writing.
          also, i'm going to attempt to stretch out the chapters because i feel that chapter one was a. bit short; but i will have to cut off the chapter at some point because it can't have TOO many plot developments in one chapter. once i was writing fanfiction and the first chapter was a 16-page, font size 11 word document and chapter two was a 40 (!!) page, font size 11 word document...
          yeah, that's gonna change
