Well… I nobody has read my later chapters after the 2+ weeks they’ve been out. I think it’s best that I take those ones down. I’ll try promoting more on my tiktok — or even creating a new account to promote my story.

I posted some new chapters. Finally, we’re in some actual action now! When I write some more, I’ll start posting more chapters. I’m hesitant to post them all at once, so… I feel like no one will be reading it if there’s so much content. Should I do it slowly until I get more readers? I’m not sure… I also don’t want to have no chapters ready to go, therefore disappointing my readers by not updating. But please read, vote, and comment! Thank you!

2nd announcement now-- yay! But, there's another story idea I'd love to pursue after I finish this one. It was originally for a series of Creative Writing Assignments. The storyline was created by not just me, but two other people. I talked to them about actually writing it. It was originally for a screenplay, so we could only fit so much of a storyline into ~17 or so pages. Still, I love the idea so much. It would not be a romantic story; it would focus on platonic and familial relationships. I would have no choice but to make some major changes to the storyline (not the plot) in order to make it a good book. It would be satisfying as hell though. I was itching to make a more slow burn of a plot... I now have the opportunity to... So yay! Love you guys!

Alright... I'll have to make this two separate posts now. And I won't be cut off... So, let's start with the first thing I said. I am working on this HUGE chapter! My biggest one yet! I'm at my grandmother's, and she lives in the middle of Bum-F*ck-Nowhere, Virginia, in the middle of a forest. She has this enclosed porch with screen walls. In addition, there's this man made mini rock water fall. I also have a beautiful view of a river, and endless trees... While they have no leaves now, in the summer, when I come back, they will! Anyways... I know I still need to post those 8-ish other chapters. I'll do it... sometime... But, it will be focusing on one character in particular. I'd love to give the rest of the character their own special chapter. I feel as if they are one-dimensional; they need more depth. I've been focusing too much on [Y/N], and need to let the other characters shine. Regardless, I need to focus on properly planning my story out. In addition, I've made use of the "Story Notes" function. Though, I haven't been able to figure out how to do more than one. I promise I will! Either way, please know I will be posting more chapters as I continue to write and gain my confidence. Thank you for staying along the way.

I just wrote a long message just for all of it to be deleted because it was too long :( I’m on my phone so I can’t see the character limit… Ugh. I’ll rewrite it later when I get back from breakfast at IHOP with my grandmother. 

I was worried posting my story would cause distress -- that it would put me in a state of constant worry due to my fear of rejection. However, I feel the opposite; I am so overjoyed with keeping up with my new readers, and am excited to write new chapters. I have so many more ideas for my story. I feel so warm and fuzzy inside! Thank you to my friends, my boyfriend (shocking I have one, I know...), my followers, and my readers. You bring me so much joy.  Until next time...

Hey guys! I really enjoyed being personally messaged on here for a story request. However, I'd like to set some strict guidelines for them. I'm saddened my first request ever was absolutely disgusting, immoral, violent, and flat out obscene. (It was for a literal t0rtur3 scene.) So please, I ask of you guys, to abide by these 3 rules:
          
          1. NOTHING regarding specific violence. (AKA, no simple t0rtur3 scenes.)
          2. Dark topics are allowed, however they MUST HAVE RELEVANCE, AND ARE NOT JUST CAUSE! 
          3. Plot. It has to have one. It cannot just be asking me to write a vi0l3nt scene for your weird f3tish or something. IT HAS TO BE CONNECTED TO A MEANINGFUL PLOT! You have to include one or I won't do it!
          
          I'm sorry if this was rude. I am just disgusted at a recent message I have received. I made a post about it on my TikTok. Just... please remember I am a real person behind the screen. To the rest of my readers and followers, I love ALL of you so SO much. I'm sorry you have to see this. xx

I’ve been re-reading the chapters I’ve posted and have been fixing any errors, inconsistencies, or formatting errors I have come across. If you notice anything, or have suggestions, please let me know; it would mean a lot to me. Thank you for reading! More will be on the way! xx

Thank you SO much, new readers! I see you! I will be posting more of the chapters, and writing new ones! I am on vacation at my grandmother’s, so I won’t be super productive this week. Regardless, know I love all of you. Until next time!

Hello, all! I’ve seen only few people have read my first chapter; I have no votes or comments, either. I posted two new chapters and posted about this story on my TikTok. Which is ‘@/yerimsgirlfriend’, by the way. I shit post a lot. So hopefully, with this, more people will read it. I’m honestly a bit sad about it… Well, publicly displaying my insecurities isn’t a good look for an author… Please read if you can!
