Greetings everyone, I know it has been a while and August is here too! But I've sadly decided to take a hiatus until further notice, I am not certain if I will come back. I wanted to revive my books and try again at making them even better and adding more stories for everyone's pleasure, but I believe that it has come once again to the point where I do not think that I can write. It has lost it's effect on me. I cannot say I am too old or that it wasn't fun, but I feel it is my time to move on. 
          	
          	I might come back sometime in the future if I find the inspiration to write another story. Though, most might be originals in the future, but I cannot promise anything. Anything and everything is possible. There is currently a very big shift happening in my life. I am switching universities, my sister is starting university and she's moving in with me. 
          	
          	So I am just burnt out from work and personal events. I hope to return, perhaps not after 10 years, but currently the situation is the way it is. Again, things will get better and I am sure of that. I've been watching some shows lately, and I've also been reading books too! So I'm not too far away. 
          	
          	Thank you to everyone for supporting me up until now, and I look forward to seeing you sometime this year, or maybe next year! Until then, stay safe and have a good day <3
          	
          	-- Lilly

Good morning Starshine! The Earth says hello! 
          -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          A secret fizzes in the shadows of Willy Wonka’s scrumdiddlyumptious world...
          -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          In a dim parlor, shadows writhe on cracked walls as Scarlett Beauregarde clutches a stained letter from her investigator. Her blonde hair spills wild, blue eyes blazing with spite for her ex and his sister, Y/n. She glares at Y/n’s photo, those hazel eyes sharp, ghostly, like a forgotten whisper.
          
          Another picture falls—Madam Vex, not the Mr. Vex she’d imagined, but a woman, auburn hair framing that same eerie hazel stare. Scarlett’s breath catches, fingers trembling as she aligns the photos.
          
          A rumor of Vex’s past twists in her mind. “Time to snuff out his little starshine,” she hisses, a cruel laugh curling her lips. Her heart races with a dark plan: to join Vex, and dim Y/n’s light. The photos blur in flickering candlelight, eyes locked, a secret sharp as thorns, "Finally... It will all be MINE."
          -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Thank you, dazzling dreamers, for your patience! Starshine's Shadow’s first chapter is nearly here, and I’m fizzing with excitement! 
          
          Comment your thoughts and follow for updates—a tale of drama, romance, and bloodshed awaits! And remember my dear starshines, not everything is as it seems!

Good morning Starshine! The Earth says hello! 
          
          Get ready for Starshine’s Shadow, the official long awaited sequel to My Lost Starshine! Y/n and Willy’s wedding is near, but a new rival and a scheming ex are stirring trouble. Check out this teaser and drop your guesses below! :3
          -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          Spring glows in Wonka’s factory, where Y/n’s laughter sweetens the air. Their wedding looms, a cherry tree promise. But thorns creep in. Cassandra Vex’s “Velvet Vines” challenge Wonka’s empire, her hazel eyes daring him. “Thorns? Pfft!” Willy scoffs, but shadows stir.
          
          Scarlett Beauregarde, bitter over her ex and his sister Y/n, spots those same eyes, a thorn hairpin, in Y/n. Whispers of Vex’s lost child spark a plan: steal that legacy. “Time to dim his little starshine,” Scarlett hisses, plotting to claim Vex’s crown. Y/n’s warmth holds Willy's, but betrayal’s seeds sprout, thorned and sharp.
          -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          What’s Vex hiding? Will Scarlett ruin everything? Comment your theories!  
          
          Updates coming soon! <3

@Kl26096339 All are good guesses! Also Vex is a new character to make the sequel a bit more dynamic, and Vex might be the best addition so far! :D

@lilly_mellila  I got a feeling that Scarlett will basically ruin everything but if she does, Willy Wonka is scared that he'll never be able to see his wife again because Scarlett is jealous. I'm not sure about Vex and I have have never heard of him before. It could be a possibility that Vex could be hiding something like a dark secret.
