Hello friends. Hope you are well. I just wanted to update you on what I'm doing. I've been laying out my tiers on Inkitt. Getting my books all on there. I've been working on a few things. I miss Wattpad. I miss you guys. But my books are still not safe here. For those of you who loved Shevamp, I am rewriting the series on InkItt on my Alexandra_Blackwell second channel. That is the pen name I've chosen and want to start using. The books on that channel are free to read. Right now, the Shevamp series has been renamed to Shadowborn, and I changed the names because my book was used without my permission. Shadowborn 1 - Sins of the Father (Victor's Sin) is complete. Rowan is now Aeryn. Had to change a few things. The book is completely rewritten. Shadowborn 2 - Dark Heart is my current WIP. We're at chapter 12 with releases on Monday and Friday.

Goeie nag. Ek sien jy het 'n boek in Afrikaans op Inkitt uitgesit. Lyk interresant.

Merry Christmas, Cristal!
          
          Hope this day is everything that you dreamed of, and may the New Year bring you peace and joy. 
          
          Keep on writing!xx

Question. Do you think posting and uploading a story to Wattpad is worth it, if you want to be an author? 
          I mean there are so many other writing platforms out there, but.... I just don't click with them like I do on Wattpad. 
          Yet, when I look at the quality of stories, good stories are hard to come by on wattpad. But on other platforms, it's as if the Authors there.... Just take themselves, (WAY TOO SERIOUS) and I never know whether a story is written by a person or AI. 
          I need some help?

I'm still trying to find a solution for the mirror site problem. The moment I reload a chapter, it shows up on the mirror site. I miss you guys. My books are still available on the Ink**t. Some are for free. Most are behind paywalls for this very reason. I have a few good friends who followed me there. A few of them even support me. I will be sad if I can't bring my books back here.

Hey guys, my books were all copied onto a mirror site. I found unpublishing them removed the link. If I were you, I would go check out Teenfic.net and see if your books are there.

Now that we're past the Monday Blues, hope your Tuesday rocks. What quote crossed your path today? Or what pearl of wisdom would you want to leave for future generations? 
          
          The big moments leave memories that fade with time and lose their shine, but the small ones build character, shape your story, and either polish or tarnish your crown. Pay attention to them. @CSDreamer © Cristal Sieberhagen 2025

How has your week gone? Are you a writer or a reader or both?

How is your week going? Had a bit of a rough day. Tell me something nice that happened to you today.

My 6-year journey to get Wolfborn published and then republished as four separate books is finally reaching its final stage. Just finished The Dark Mage Queen, the final book in the 4-book series. For the time being, it is available on my Edits Tier on InkItt as a complete draft. The same draft is releasing weakly on my First Drafts Tier on InkItt. It is such a relief to be so close to finishing this the way  I wanted in the first place. The fourth book will be, God willing, available on Amazon alongside the other three, soon. This one turned out to be everything I imagined. For the first time, I am happy with Wolfborn in its entirety, and I can focus on other things. There were days I thought it would never happen. But, thank God, it is done. Now I can let go of the past and reach toward the future. I will also get back A Plea for help series from Galatea. And then I will decide what I want to do with that.  Thank you to everyone who walked this long journey with me. You are precious to me.
