Hi everyone,
Now that it’s August I wanted to give an update.
The unfortunate news is that my plans for Diviner did not pan out. There is a chance that Diviner may still come to be, but for now, I have decided to lay the story to rest.
Instead of Diviner, I’ve been working on a new project that will never see the light of day. For now, it’s for my eyes only. It might end up being published someday, but that’s when the project is done. Even then it’s only a chance. I found this approach helpful. I don’t worry as much about getting it to my standards. This story is allowed to be a mess and I can always go back and edit and make changes.
Since I have also found it much more enjoyable to be writing offline, I will continue with the way I am doing things now. I want to take it slow. I am still fighting that voice in my head telling me that my writing is terrible, and I find that to be my biggest block.
Also, I go back to my last year of school soon, and when that happens I will have much less time to write. I will have my hands full. I don’t want to pressure myself too much about writing when the time comes.
So, unfortunately, things will probably not change much. I’ll still be around here on Wattpad, as I don’t have the heart to delete my account. However, I will still be mostly focusing on writing offline. I might bring my other books back eventually if I end up writing for them again, but for now, that’s my plan.
Thank you guys so much for your support throughout the years. It means a lot to me, but I do think I have mostly moved on from Wattpad. I’m not leaving, but I will still be mostly inactive.
Again, thank you, and I will leave this post here.
