          	Thank you to everyone who read this story, cried, and then read it again. I would absolutely not be here without you. Now, I can focus solely on Percy and Winn instead of also thinking about cover dimensions and EPUB files.

Hello everyone! I know I said I wouldn't bug you again until release day for The Last Show, but I just wanted to give everyone an idea of what the next few months would look like on here. 
          
          You have probably noticed that even with the edits, Relentless updates have been slower than past books. I apologize, I know people were used to updates every other day. A few months back, I got diagnosed with endometriosis, and with it has come a lot of side effects, including chronic fatigue. My writing time used to be early mornings and during my kids' naps, but lately I have been sleeping during those times as well. It has slowed my productivity a lot, and unfortunately it won't ease up until after my surgery recovery. So, one or two posts a week (with one to three chapters each update) will probably be the new norm for a while. 
          
          I don't currently have a surgery date, but will be finding it out soon. At that point, I will be able to let you guys know more about the release schedule for Folie A Deux. My hope would be to get it finished before surgery, but it will be completely dependent on the timeline. 
          
          Thanks so much for sticking with me through everything, and for pre-ordering The Last Show! I really appreciate it, and I am excited to get back to my normal energy levels/routine this summer. If you've ever had endometriosis, you have my sympathies! This sucks lol.

lilafairchild

@achase2 You too. I will keep you updated on how the surgery goes!

Hello everyone! I promise this is the last time I'll bug you until the release day for The Last Show, but I wanted to let everyone know that the first little section of Relentless is now posted, with the changes to the story included. 
          
          I appreciate your patience while I reworked the story. This really is a better version, I believe, and I am excited to show it to everyone. With that being said, I still would like critique! Nothing is perfect, and you guys asking for clarification or pointing out an issue often helps me see what will need to be changed during the publishing process. 
          
          And a final reminder that The Last Show is available for pre-order: https://www.amazon.com/Last-Show-Gentlemans-Proposal-Book-ebook/dp/B0GKZHH7DJ/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2Y0Z7AD26CB97&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.1MO7fatheKiByecFCnqWHtKfMO5dyTy7EUIxYqBA5SxvnOjS36FesO48ZU5usYML.BUQ-jZhyHpD2RZ9l1YaOyKG_NC8TJ07YZhy5oDV-5uo&dib_tag=se&keywords=Lila+fairchild&qid=1770100427&sprefix=lila+fairchild%2Caps%2C207&sr=8-2
          
          Also, the Hive Mind Creators goes live on Patreon on 2/14! Enjoy exclusive stories from myself, Rhakos, Stella Lynn (stellerdellar), Nadia Nevsky, Sarina Adams, and Katie Ivey. For Tier 2, you'll also get access to behind-the-scenes content, included deleted scenes, recipes, early cover reveals, and more! 
          
          Thank you guys for hanging in there with me during a chaotic (but fun!) time.

          Keep an eye out next week for Relentless! I really think you guys are going to love the rewrite, and I know everyone is ready to get back into Percy and Winifred's future.

Hello! 
          
          I have a few housekeeping things to go over, since I have a ton of moving parts going on with different works right now. 
          
          First off, Relentless will be back up in its new form some time during the week of February 8th. I am not positive which day (I have two toddlers with special needs, so things change quickly in my house and I try to stay adaptable where I can). When I post it, I will be including a note about the changes. 
          
          Second, The Last Show will be taken down February 1st (I am AKST, so that may translate to a different day for you). It will be coming to Kindle March 1st with edits! 
          
          Third, The Hive Mind Creators goes live on Patreon on February 14th, as a lot of you know, and my first exclusive story for it will also be my first contemporary! Through A Glass will be a Hitchcock-style bully romance set at an elite university in New England. The first chapter will be posted here on Wattpad for anyone who wants to see if it's something they'd be interested in. 
          
          That's all I have for updates at the moment, but I just wanted to say that I appreciate everyone for sticking with me through the Relentless rewrites! These characters deserve a story where they really get to shine.

@NeenieForever Thank you! I hope you love Phoebe and Elias, they're both very flawed but very human

Author,
          I have purchased and am reading your book Of The Mind! It is a tremendous story! I am wondering when the rest of the series will be available for purchase on Amazon?!

@lconedy Thank you so much, this is so sweet!

This makes me very excited!!! I do subscribe to KU, however, I purchased your story right away for my library! I am a lover of great stories, and reading is my absolute jam! There are some stories I will read more than once. Your creative mind and writing compel me to want to be able to read these again and again! 
            So, thank you!

@lconedy Hello! Thank you for your message, this is so sweet! The Last Show will be coming to Amazon on March 1st, and the pre-order link will be open in early February. After that, To A Flame will have some significant rewrites, but I am projecting that it will be out in August! Let me know if you have any questions at all!

Thank you to everyone who wrote me with suggestions for the rewrite of Relentless! 
          
          To make sure that you guys don't have to slog through chapters that will contain some OG material, I am going to write to at least the 25% mark and then upload and go chapter-by-chapter from there. When I upload the new version, I will include a list of changes so that people don't feel lost. 
          
          I don't have an exact date right now for when this will drop, but I should have an estimation in the coming week or so. 
          
          Thank you to everyone sticking with me through this process! This is my first time scrapping a WIP and starting over in front of an audience, and while I am still sorry to disappoint you all, I am so wildly grateful for the graciousness you guys have given me. I genuinely want you guys to have my best. 
          
          Thank you to everyone.

Hello everyone! 
          
          So, this is not a post I have had to make thus far, so I am not quite sure how to make it. For the first time since I started sharing my books on here, I have come up against a story that needs a complete rewrite halfway through. Percy and Winifred are so wonderful, and I am realizing with each chapter that they require a new setup and subplot for their book. 
          
          Initially, I was going to forge ahead so that I didn't disappoint you guys, but I have had a little voice in my head saying, "You're not giving them your best." Personally, I believe that if you are giving me your time and attention, I should give you my best work. 
          
          Because of that, I am going to pause Relentless and rewrite it as it should be. The characters and many parts of the dialogue will stay the same, but the setup to the story and the way that Percy fits into Winifred's world will be a bit different. 
          
          One thing I wanted to leave up to you guys is the new release. Would you rather I write the new story up until the 40% mark (aka, where we are now in the book) and release that all at once, then go from there? Or would you rather I post chapter by chapter, as usual? 
          
          I would love any feedback from you guys on what you prefer for the rollout! I'm sorry to change things up mid-book, but I am excited to get it right for you guys. 
          
          Thanks so much!

@FOff123456 I promise, I am too eager to take 15 years! I mean, respect to people who take their time, but I get too excited. And thank you for sharing your thoughts!

@tmainsw Thank you for this perspective! I wondered if some people might feel that the slow roll-out would be too much of an old rehashing, so this comment is helpful.
