Well. Today I completed my first real work, an 80,000 word fanfic that I began writing two years ago. It's not great, and it's not what I thought it would be, but it's complete, and that's more than I assumed I would achieve with it. 
          	
          	If it brings any of you a little bit of happiness, a small amount of distraction, then it was worth every word. That's why I write, and that's why I'm thankful for this platform.
          	
          	I can finally close the chapter on Restored, while a new one opens with Easier Said, my newest fanfiction venture, now published after months of planning. I pray it, too, brings someone happiness, and again, thanks to all of you for every bit of support. Onward!

Hey, it's been a long time since you've updated 'Easier Said'. Are you still active?

You and your friend ohh-goddamn mysteriously stopped updating in 2021. Your last update was on Dec 7th, and your friend's was sometime in May. I'm getting curious

I finished reading at 2AM (it is now 11AM) I didn’t get to sleep until 2:15ish. I was reading Restored. Oh my word!  I couldn’t  put it down!  This is the most non-cliched Selection story out there! You did such a fine job writing this. Thank you!  WOW!

just_an_astrophile

@AliBur sorry for the late response but thank you so much! I had a lot of fun writing it :)

          I just finished King if Scars. I am traumatized at the fact that HE is back. I want to cry out of anger. Please tell me it gets better.

@Annieboog so far he still seems dead evil to me. I don't know if that's says more about him or me, but I guess you'll see.

@just_an_astrophile Crap then. I’ve heard light spoilers that HE gets a backstory and becomes morally gray instead of all bad?? I refuse to believe this, I hate him sm. Grrrr

          YOU DIDN'T TELL ME YOU PUBLISHED IT (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)
          
          Also, yes, I very much like your sorted messes, because they're not messes and I put messy things into neat orderly lines-
          I can't function otherwise

@just_an_astrophile 
            I think I missed that part-
            Whoops..
            Or my terrible memory and inability to read XD
            *Blinks*
            Very sorry
            And hush!  Your writing is amazing anyway so you wouldn't even have to ever to anyone even though you don't and I'm making any sense at the moment.
            Yeah I'll be off XD
            Sorry again

@sparklestar25 I announced it on my public board? Was I supposed to reach out to you personally and beg you for votes?
