Hello, hello! My hiatus is hopefully coming to a slow end. For those of you wondering, I AM working on Strictly Summer Romance, I have less than ten chapters left to write. When will they be ready? I still don’t have an answer. Writing while raising a six month old are two very difficult tasks to balance, but I’m doing my best! As always thank you so much for your patience and support, hopefully we’ll all be able to cross Emery’s finish line soon!

I’ve been waiting for soooooo long

Unfortunately, SSR, is on hold indefinitely. I lost touch with the characters and the plot after such a long break and some big life changes. I can say that when I do come back to it, it will likely undertake a large rewrite. I had zero outline for SSR, & I feel my writing reflects that. I want to create something with more intention and depth. As I’ve grown, I want those characters I first fell in love with to grow as well. 
            
            That said, I am writing! I hope to have one, hopefully two new books, finished sometime next year. I will not be posting chapters until they’re fully completed, as I’ve learned my lesson not to pressure my writing, and not to leave people hanging on a story they’re invested in. 
            
            I’m sorry I can’t offer you closure right now, but Emery’s story will not be left untold. I just have to trust where I’m at in my creative journey. I’ll find my way back to her. Thank you for caring about her ending. ♥️

Regretfully, I am putting Strictly Summer Romance on hold. I absolutely hate to do it, but between a house remodel and baby being due in four months, I don’t have the time or brain power to commit to the final chapters, and I don’t want to give this book anything less than my all. I know I will return, my characters will not be left without an ending, but I can’t promise when that will be. I feel extremely guilty doing this to those of you who have invested time and emotion into them as well. Though, I feel less guilty officially putting this book on hold, rather than leaving you to wonder when the next update will be. Hopefully, when I return, I’ll return with the final chapters completely written, and I’ll be able to give you closure all at once. I love you guys so much, and I know I’ve said it time and time again, but you have no idea how amazing your support is to me. I hope you can forgive me, and I hope when Emery returns, you’ll accept her back into your libraries with open arms!
