****UPDATED MY PROFILE**** 
          
          ~but thought it good to announce it here as well~
          
          
          
          
          Hello again everyone! Already wrote this once but lost the more eloquent version because it was too long to post. 
          
          The gist was that I was sorry for being away so long but there had been reasons. The main one being some of the readers before I'd taken my long hiatus. For those who don't understand, know it's not you - I confronted those who needed to be stopped. However, it came to my attention that I had apparently "stolen" my own story. Word for word. And there were some who wanted to threaten me for the sake of their "friend." But, in the end, they refused to tell me who I'd "taken" the story from. And I could never find it. 
          
          But I'm coming back now with more determination than ever to finish the journey we started so many years ago. 
          
          However there are some guidelines that I need to point out: 
          
          1) These stories are MY intellectual property and will not be used, posted on another platform, or translated WITHOUT my consent 
          2) The characters are not to be used for retellings 
          3) There will be a NO TOLERANCE policy for any bullies in the comments. Constructive criticism is welcomed, but attacking others is NOT ALLOWED
          4) Violation of any of these conditions will result in a full take-down of EVERY story on my profile and everyone will either have to wait until some get published or simply move on 
           
          I'd also say I'd appreciate any of you let me know if you've noticed any of those happening. I understand the wattpad community is better than what's happened in the past. 
          
          I hope you can enjoy this adventure with me 

So...while I’m currently working on stories and such I’ve decided to try something out. I’m thinking of making a discord to create a community for those who want to join. If you like the idea, let me know. Not only will you get a direct line to me but we’ll also play some games. 
          
          Let me know if you’re interested in joining me. I will also, most likely, have some friends I’ve made through gaming over there as well

Hey everyone, it's me again. I don't know how many of you are still here but I just want to say I'm deeply sorry for disappearing for as long as I have. All truth and honesty, after publishing my first book (when I could actually hold it in all its paperback glory) I found myself in a new and frustrating situation. I've loved writing and creating stories - still do - however, everyone I know has been asking when the next one would be released. I felt pressured to write instead of being able to enjoy the process like I had been previously. I questioned myself and what I wanted for a long time. And I sincerely apologize for leaving you all in the dark as I continued to try to push myself to post here by giving empty promises to you all. You all that have been so good to me. This of you like @candycanewaters  @Bruh_Its_Her  and the countless others who have supported and waited on me. 
          Things have been much better recently, even though there have been a couple hiccups in my personal life over the last year. I am working on some newer projects as well as finishing older ones. I've gone back to my roots and started drawing again. 
          It's nice to love what you do after a while of being lost in the dark. 
          I hope those of you who have stuck around to see stories you've so diligently followed and discover some new gems. I hope I can make my absence up to you all.
          
          Always yours, 
          Kera

So...I guess you all know that I've taken down the revised edition of The Huntress. I thought about it for a long time and came to the conclusion that I cannot chance my baby being used by someone who refuses to create their own ideas and profits on taking from others. I've always been very blessed to have you all (my loyal followers) and know you have my back. I've made loads of friends here and I'm not blaming any of you or accusing anyone of foul play. 
          However, I will say that the revised story - which has changed so much yet so little in terms that it's better written and has been given some extra meat - is very nearly done. In fact, I'm hoping to send it to my publisher my the end of the month! I'm so excited! You have no idea how important this particular story is to me. 
          Anyways, wish me luck as we put together everything for this dearly loved story. I'm probably going to have to take down the original story - unless told otherwise - because none of you will want to read the new one if the old one is still hanging out here. And, honestly, I don't care if that lowers my "read count" or my "comments" because the stories and you guys are what truly matters to me. Not the rankings or popularity. 
          So, if any of you want/need to talk, please know you can ALWAYS send me a message through PM or in the comments, or right here. I never don't get excited to hear from you all. Because you're the ones that have given me the strength to keep sharing all the craziness that goes on in my brain. Thank you for that.
          
          Always yours, 
          Kera

So...it's come to my attention - by someone that VERY rude when it came to letting me know - that someone has stolen The Brookwood Boys and made it their own. The one that told me (which basically said that I'm terrible for "stealing" someone else's story and that they're going to have all their followers report me for doing so) refused to answer my questions about why they say that and I have reported their comment and blocked them. Mostly because he/she did not handle the situation in any respectful manner. That is a story that is very dear to my heart because it is BASED ON PEOPLE I KNOW (the all caps is for the person who thinks so little of me to say I'd copy someone's story word for word). 
          Please, if you hear of someone spreading slanderous things such as this about me or if you see one of my stories somewhere else, let me know. I've been going through some very difficult things over the past several months and this really hurt me. I love and trust you all so much and stuff like this makes me want to remove ALL my stories from wattpad until I've decided to publish them. I'd hate to do that - especially since the amount of work I've undergone rewriting The Huntress (which is NOT a werewolf story, by the way)...it's all just disconcerting. 
          Anyways, I promise that more fun will come soon. I'm thinking of taking down the rewritten version of The Huntress just for its safety. It's almost done and will hopefully be published soon. I'm spoiling that secret right now for you. Also, I've found a dress/clothing designer to create the infamous blue gown Skylar wears to have on the cover. So be on the lookout for those photos and I'll try to post some of the shots we get in it's own chapter for you all to look at. 
          Thank you for all the support you've given me. 
          
          Always yours,
          Kera
          

Has anyone just had a day where they felt so wrong about everything? For anyone who believes in God please pray for me. It's just been a day of confusion and weird emotions that don't make sense, and I just need some clarity. Thank you all and sorry if this confuses or worries you. 
          Always yours, 
          Kera

Is it strange that I suddenly feel like I NEED to write a Harry Potter fanfic for Oliver Wood?

Hey everyone!
          
          Sorry I've not been as "productive" as I used to be. I almost cried when I saw how long it's been since I last updated anything on here. Just know that I'm working on a HUGE couple of projects and will be back very soon. I love you all and want to do the best I can for each and ever one of you. 
          
          So, as a way to make things up to you guys and show how much you all mean to me, I'm about to send out belated Christmas/valentines/birthday cards for anyone who wants one. Just send me a PM of your address and I'll send those out soon. 
          
          Always yours, 
          Kera Shaul 

Hey everyone! As you know, I've been a little everywhere lately but I'm coming back gradually. I do have some interesting news for you all. You know how I love to give you special "gifts" like pictures and collages and all other stuff. I was wondering if you all could help me out now. I REALLY want to be able to meet every single one of you! Because you have given me the strength and power to publish one of the stories I put up on here (and I want to continue to publish ALL of them). I've set up a Patreon page for all of us for a small $1 per month, just so I can build up the money to have book signings in as many places as possible. 
          It would mean the world to me to have your support even in this - and I feel horrible asking for money, but I have no other choice than to ask those who mean the world to me.
