Hello my Wattpad fam!
          
          I have an exciting update!
          
          "Our Secret Intentions," fka "The Secrets We Keep," is officially getting ready for publication, and I’m putting together a small early-reader/ARC list for anyone who might want to read the polished version before release.
          
          An ARC is an Advance Reader Copy, which means selected readers may receive the book early and, if they choose, leave an honest review when it releases.
          
          If you’d like to be considered for an ARC copy, you can sign up here:
          
          https://laurenmhayes.com/arc
          
          And if you’d like updates about the book, this series, and future releases, you can also join my newsletter here:

          I also wanted to give you an honest update.
          
          First, THANK YOU for reading, commenting, voting, and sticking with me. This story exists in the way it does because of you.
          
          I meant it when I said I planned to post Book 2 chapters here this year. But as I’ve gotten closer to publishing my debut, I’ve had to rethink the best way to handle the rest of the series so I can give these books the future they deserve.
          
          Because Book 2 is part of my official publishing plans, I won’t be serializing the full book on Wattpad the way I originally thought I might.
          
          But I’m also not leaving you behind.
          
          This story started here, and so many of you have supported it from the beginning. Because of that, I still plan to share the first early-draft chapter of Book 2 here as a thank you and a sneak peek at what’s coming next.
          
          The rest of Book 2 will be available once it’s finished and officially released, but I wanted Wattpad readers to be the first to get a taste of where this world is going.
          
          Truly, thank you for caring about these characters the way I do. I’m making this change so the series can grow, and I’d love for you to be part of the early-reader circle as I take the next step.
          
          With love,

          
          Lauren

Hello everyone! 
          
          Thought I’d post an update since it’s been a while. Book 2 is still simmering in my brain. As far as progress is concerned, it exists as an outline for now. 
          
          I’ve had to press pause on it because I’ve been writing script after script after… 
          
          This year alone, I’ve completed basically two feature-length scripts (one a social media adventure and another a black romance) meant for the micro-drama space. They are currently being considered for development. 
          
          My next project will be finishing turning “Secrets We Keep” into a micro drama script. Then I’ll be working on a horror micro drama script. It’s been insane but fun! 
          
          ETA on book 2 you ask? Rest assured, it will be this year. Thank you for your patience!
          
          Actually when I’m done with the micro drama version of “The Secrets We Keep,” I’ll be turning book 2 of the series into a micro drama script as well, then turning it into a book. I know. Insane. 
          
          Anyways that’s my update for now. When I have any more exciting news to share, I’ll post it here and on my blog https://laurenmhayes.com. 
          
          Thank you to ALL my followers. You truly do encourage me to keep going.

Gentle Reader, How about giving my first creation a moment to read. I will be happy and grateful for your feedback and suggestions. Thank you https://www.wattpad.com/story/377116417?utm_source=android&utm_medium=link&utm_content=story_info&wp_page=story_details_button&wp_uname=rose2q4e

Heya Lauren, 
          
          Happy Sunday!
          
          Just thought I'd pop by and say thank you for your words of encouragement. I posted my book and it's doing well. 
          
          I would also like to share the song with you that accompanies the book. Would love your thoughts. No pressure though xx

          Sending good vibes and gratitude ☺️

Patiently waiting for book 2 
          
          Also have you finished the vampire book you or your husband was working on? I would love to read it

Hi everyone!
          
          I just wanted to post an update. I’m working furiously to finish my vampire coming of age novel. I’m more than halfway done. As of right now, I don’t plan on posting it here. I will likely shop it around to get representation and/or self-publish it as an ebook on Amazon and all the ebook retailers. More info to follow as it becomes available. 
          
          In regards to book 2 of “The Secrets We Keep” series, I will post new chapters likely and realistically in August. I thank you so much for your patience and for reading and commenting on my crazy story!
          
          I try to stay active on TikTok (link in bio) if you want to check for updates on there as well. 
          
          XOXO,
          
          Lauren
