That’s such good news for your readers!  Welcome back and thank you for posting again!

@kalidog thank you! It's been a very hard half a year for me personally, so it's nice to feel a bit more like myself.

Apparently, the solution to my writer's block wasn't a holiday... but getting stuck on a plane on my way to a conference again! I'm in full writing mode, churning up three chapters in one day! 
          
          So, here's the first update:
          https://www.wattpad.com/1541166343-dead-on-your-arrival-hard-match
          
          I'll start editing the next chapter of "Romance of Test" for Wednesday,;and then if there's still time, there's another chapter of Marcia and Christos in the works!
          
          If any of my constant readers are still around, give this one a spot of reading! Hopefully, you enjoy!
          
          Love,
          K. xx

My darlings,
          
          I'm going on holiday for a fortnight to my beloved Netherlands. I'm hoping it'll help me to reset and to start climbing out of the darkness that has been looming over me since November.
          
          I don't expect to have many chances to write and update. Too many bitterballen to eat, too many museums to visit *haha*
          
          Although, planes have been brilliant for my inspiration recently; so anything is possible.
          
          I'll be back soon, hopefully freshly inspired and eager to share my musings with you!
          
          Love,
          K. xx

A new chapter of "Romance Test" is up! I had so much fun writing it! I hope you enjoy it at least half as much!

My darlings,
          
          I swear the next chapter of "Romance Test" is 90% written, and I was going to update it... and then I found myself asleep face down on my keyboard. I'll be posting it tomorrow; it'll just need a bit of brushing up.
          
          Thank you for your patience!
          
          Love,
          K. xx

@-avidreader-  & @kalidog you're both so wonderful! Thank you so much for your support! It means the world to me! 
            I think I'm getting by these days majorly thanks to how generous and heartwarming the feedback to my stories has been. So, this Wednesday I'll be updating both "Romance Test" (I'm still hoping to keep up with the weekly update schedule) and "Dead on Your Arrival" (still very much inspired by Marcia and Christos). I hope you enjoy!

@kkolmakov Hi! There's no rush, don't worry about it. It's nice getting this message to know you are alright though, so thank you for updating us just for that.
            I hope you are doing well with the writer's block or different inspiration. @kalidog said it beautifully in the previous message so take care, be patient with yourself, and we'll always come back to this corner of the internet with the vest of intentions.
            Thank you for sharing your worlds and characters with us!

You have had a shock to your system, and having writer’s block is a plague on most writers.  Just take your time and keep writing whatever draws you on. Your characters are too wonderful to be abandoned. Just be kind to yourself Katya. Wishing you all the best, and motivation, and inspiration.

Life experiences, good and bad, makes authentic writing richer, and you already have an authentic and amazing written voice. Just do what you need to do to exist in your new normal. Each day will get a little bit easier.

@kalidog thank you so much for your kind words! I definitely needed this reminder! As so many of us, I'm in constant battle with my critical inner voice; and it's especially hard to fight off these days. The loss is still so recent. At times like these, I'm especially grateful for my readers and my friends here on Wattpad. Being on this site makes it so much more manageable.
