 #9: Hi everyone,
          	
          	If you've been reading my fanfic HPHM: Hide-and-Seek, I wanted to let you know that I'm planning to end it with Year 4.
          	
          	This story has been a big part of me for a long time, and I've genuinely enjoyed living in it. But I've also realised I'm craving a different kind of recognition and growth — something this particular fandom, for all its warmth, probably can't give me. 
          	
          	So for now, I’m putting Hide-and-Seek on pause after Year 4. Maybe one day I'll come back to write that next chapter or the next year — but for now it feels like I'm putting time and heart into something that doesn't have room to go anywhere. So I'd rather stop here and start building something of my own. 
          	
          	It's been a good journey. I loved Mia, and Rowan, and Penny, and all the others — and I like to think they loved you back, too.

 #8: Realized I never greeted you properly after such a long absence.
          
          I'm still very much alive, no thanks to my troublesome neighbor country. A lot has changed in the meantime, and right now I'm busy brushing up my HPHM fanfiction so it won't hurt your eyes when/if you read it.
          
          Have come up with a few ideas for wrapping up Year IV, so we'll see how it goes. Hopefully I won't lose my inspiration — and hopefully I won't lose you either. Hugs.

@ EMMcNulty hey-ho, a warm welcome to you! I thoroughly enjoyed it — authentic, imperfect characters, the setting, and your vivid wordplay. Truly impressed!

 #7: taking a moment to acknowledge all the wonderful folks watching young Geliders play hide-and-seek. I — love — you. Meanwhile, the fourth year has arrived, and evil is drawing near.
          
          And as usual, darkness carries its own tale.

 #6: I—I—I just can't stop it.
          
          Writing words, both good and bad, pleasant and not, then rearranging them, then rewriting them, then cringing in disgust. A true artist, they say, is to hate what you do and get caught up in trying to fix it.
          
          Don't laugh, but ✨ sometimes✨ I feel like the characters aren't real, like I haven't fully captured Mia's fascination with Penny, Rowan's beauty, or Tulip's devilish grin. Their most vivid traits, like Skye's explosiveness or Talbott's deliberate aloofness, or Mia and how desperately she clings to her past.
          
          I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It'll take a few more days to calm down. But for how long?

 #3: I've finally finished Year II of HPHM. Feeling a bit drained; yet, there is some kind of accomplishment looming on my mental horizon. Also, started Year III, but it'll definitely take more time to get it together: I only have a few notes prepared. Still not sure about some of the plot twists tho.
          
          Let's say, here in Ukraine, we face too much death already. I want no more Thestrals.

 #2: currently pondering about Year III of HPHM. Trying to 'weave' some side quests into the main story but making it look seamless. During this year, some of my favorite characters will appear, and I'll add more routine interactions. After all, the story is about friendship and how it feels for someone truly odd to finally feel accepted.
          
          You've heard about oddness, haven't you? The oddest is ahead.

 #1: working on HPHM piece which has been haunting me for a long now. While writing, I get an odd feeling that urges me to share more and more about relations between Mia and Rowan. 
          
          Honestly, no love is as pure as the one towards a friend. That's also one of the reasons the HPHM is dedicated to my best friend, Elia, who passed away. 
          
          Thank you for being my Rowan. See you in the Library.
