hi guys, I haven't been on here in a while and to basically cut a long story short, I'm want to properly announce that I'm going on hiatus. I've had a really good journey here over the past five or so years but recently coming onto this app (with other things going on in my personal life) have felt like a chore or just really competitive and it caused me to lose interest in writing as a whole. This was really difficult for me because writing is my hobby so I've decided to take a step away from these fanfics and anime fandom for a while. I've taken up going back to my roots and writing for ships for other fandoms on ao3 where it has been really relaxing not worrying about reads or votes or anything like that.
          	Obviously I love my works that I've got here and am so grateful for all of you who have supported me on my journey so hopefully one day I can come back and finish what I've started, but at the minute I just don't feel as though this is for me anymore. (In future I hope this changes but I want to prioritise myself)
          	
          	All my love, 
          	Misty

@kirschteinsmaid hey hey! This is heartbreaking to hear but very valid. I stumbled across your account from an Armin story way back when and then went on to read the rest of your stories. I love reading works from smaller accounts bc they seem to always have the most engaging stories. You’re truly a gem on here but always choose what’s best for you in the end. If you ever decide to come back just know you’ll always have me as a reader. Good luck girly :)

@kirschteinsmaid Misty girl it’s HARD out here like pls I don’t need everyone to see everything im doing like??? like let all readers and all authors breathe and live in their own lil world

@jeankirsteinsbbygirl HAHA! but no for real why am I stalking my readers and mutuals involuntarily now?? I think it's invasive of people's privacy like ofc reading lists are public but telling me what people are voting on is FAR. free my girls !! it also just gives so much anxiety about how well your own stories are being seen/ promoted to others which is just such unnecessary hassle I can't deal

okay guys here me out...sometime in the (FAR) future a Bonnie and Clyde rewrite? I've always intended to rewrite it as I've never been satisfied with how I wrote any of the characters (I was a rookie writer at the time). No major plot point changes but minor character and story tweaks. Like backstroke and aging some most of the characters up to college age rather than high school.
          
          I was thinking more of a (rich) gifted burnt out student!reader x commitment issues racer!eren. I don't know giving them more depth because y/ns backstory was always so vague and she doesn't really develop in the plot. Maybe  a Will Hunting x Skylar vibe from Good Will Hunting (1997) will flesh then out a little?
          
          It's just a thought lol, and is way down the line in my writing priorities so those of you that still love the original shouldn't panic about not being able to read it I will give a good warning before I ever take it down to rewrite <3
          
          Thoughts?
