Hey guys!
          	
          	So, lately I've started a Buy Me a Coffee page, where I could potentially upload exclusive books/content, or maybe attempt to self-publish my work. The latter won't be immediate, but I am considering it because it's a good way to rake in a little extra while I am still in university. 
          	
          	I just want to get your thoughts on this, if this is something you would support, or if I should only publish on Wattpad. I mean, I would eventually like to write a sellable book/novel as it's been a dream of mine for years. But I am still on the fence. I don't want to limit the access that readers have to my work because I don't like the idea of completely monetizing my craft. I write because it's something I love, not because I want money.
          	
          	What do you guys think?
          	
          	I would really appreciate any input you have. Thank you once again for your support :)

@TreadmillzFault thanks for the response! 
          	  
          	  I was thinking of self-publishing through amazon since that would be the easiest option and best user-friendly format

I think this is a beautiful idea! I know many Authors on Wattpad that were just so talented they made they work private! Basically kept maybe the first 12 pages of their book on Wattpad, or enough to introduce the plot, which lured people into buying it online to read and access the rest. I am the people! I bought so many books like that. One of them is the  “ Strings of Subversion”, which I bought through the Apple ( IPhone) Books app. When you’re such a great writer, like yourself, people are willing to do that! I think you should go for it! I know I’m willing to buy! :)

Hi everyone!
          
          Just wanted to say that I already have all the chapters of The War She Painted written out. The reason updates have been quick is because I only have to go back and re-edit each one before publishing. 
          
          That being said, there aren’t many chapters left and I am aiming to finish the book by the end of this week! I hope you are all enjoying it so far. It’s honestly one of my favourite projects. 
          
          Thank you again for your support <33

The War She Painted recent updates the last few days have left me in complete shock like omg. Everyone’s character is starting to make complete sense and I’m finally understanding the Kommandant ( Konrad) and Whilhem’s behaviour and thought process. I’m so enthralled with your writing and character development. Just amazing.

@ersatz- love to hear that!! It’s incredible!

I might be the only one but I genuinely love love your books endings lol specially even though some were sad you would find a way for them to have their peace together and I just love that. The ideas you have for your books, the words and how much you put into your writing. I’m in awe. So thankful that I found your page, can’t wait for what else you got in the future :) 
          Proud of you!

Hey guys! 
          
          I don’t really like the way I wrote the ending for Ruby. Once I finish City of Secrets, I plan to go back and rewrite it. I’ll be leaving the book up for now but will take it down by the end of the week. 
          
          Thanks for understanding!

@NicoleFerguson397 It was supposed to end differently, but I changed it last minute. After re-reading the book, I realized that the first ending was the better option lol

Hi everyone!
          
          As you've noticed, I'm updating City of Secrets back to back because I really want to get it done and stop procrastinating! Right now, I'm going back and revising the pre-written chapters. The story should wrap up by the end of the weekend or Monday :)
          
          Thank you for being so patient with me
