May

It most certainly has been a while, hasn't it? I'm thinking it's about time I picked up my pen and gave writing another shot. After all, there's still a lot I wish to express and share with all of you. I hope everyone is well <3
          

Soooo the writing process is taking a bit longer than I expected... 

I LOVE YOUUUUUU ❤❤❤

Hey, sorry I'm late to the party. I think it's safe to say many of us have had tons on our minds and this whole quarantine thing isn't helping whatsoever. I've kind of just been sorting my thoughts, contemplating what to post here, and finally decided on this. I wanted to check in, make sure everyone is being safe, doing their part by practicing safe distance and staying hydrated regardless of being told to do so during this pandemic, and if anyone wants to talk I'm here for you <3 I swear I haven't forgotten about you guys! I'll be taking some time to catch up and reply to comments despite me being a little late ;^;

OMG Y'ALL CHEN IS GETTING MARRIED AND HAVING A BABY ?!!! CONGRATS TO OUR BOOIIIII~ I'M HONESTLY SO SHOOK AND ELATED IDK MAN, BUT I'M HAPPY FOR HIM. HE DESERVES IT :")

Happy New Year, everyone!!! 
          
          I know 2019 has been a very difficult year for a lot of us, and for that I wish everyone a healthy and happy 2020!! It's been one heck of a ride, one I can't wait to continue together once I abandon this hiatus of mine. I've taken some much needed time, and throughout it all some of you still continued to support me. I literally can't even begin to express how thankful I am for it all. Truly, I'm grateful. Thank you for your patience. These last few months I've properly taken the time to try and get myself to a better place and to do things I've been putting off... Anyway, rather than saying 'I love you' to people I  barely know anything about, I CAN without,  any hesitation, say that I love everything you've done for me. I don't know how I'll feel about re-reading this while sober. I'll probably realize there's a lot of things I forgot to mention and delete this, but for now I hope the sincerity in these words reach you.
          
          Sincerely,
          
          Your friendly neighborhood tea addict
          
          

I'm slowly going to be unpublishing The Play Date, starting with the first chapter (and so on) because some people are still reading it and it would personally upset me if a story I was reading suddenly disappeared. 
          
          I'll be posting this in the book as well with a bit more detail because no really reads what I post on the board ;-;

*Part 2 because I've exceeded the number of characters*
          
          I'm not saying I'm going to leave Wattpad. I'm just... taking a break, maybe finally get to checking things off my bucket list. Stuff like that. I've had a great time on this platform but there's a life off the internet waiting for me to live it. Maybe it's time I tried getting better and lived a little more outside the four walls I've come to know better than most things I should already know. I want to live a life just as worthwhile as everyone here has made me realize writing is.
          
          I'll still be updating Teacups, it's my personal book, for those who don't know. I don't think I could bring myself to fully take a break from Wattpad just yet. I'd just end up back here anyway. Aside from that my other stories are on hold.
          
          I'd really like to come back and properly finish what I've started without a heavy heart. I hope you guys understand. 
          
          If there's any questions, feel free to message me. I wouldn't mind having someone to talk to right now :")

          Tbh this has been written out since August...
          
          I'm sure there aren't many, if not, any who have wondered where I've been and when updates will be as I've poorly been doing so. If it's the case, feel free to skip all of this. It's going to be a lengthy mess with hope to properly communicate what has been on my mind these days.
          
          I'd like to start by expressing how much I appreciate every single one of you who has ever taken the time to click on one of my stories. It's made me feel like maybe this whole writing thing is worthwhile, like maybe there is something I may or may not be good at, after all. And the support, gosh, some of you have really had me shedding happy tears. Heck, I'm tearing up now, mostly because I don't want to write this, but it's come to the point where I feel like I need to. I'm really moved by the amount of support I've received over the years, especially at times when I wanted to just give up. It might sound a bit dramatic, which isn't what I intend for it to sound like, but in all seriousness, I've always thought of myself as someone useless, and somehow, each time I logged onto Wattpad, it was enough to make that thought go away for a while. 
          
          Now, the reason I'm writing all of this...
          
          I've been on "hiatus" once. I thought it would be a good idea to take a break, focus on school, but in the end I continued to try and force the whole writing process, made me dread it at times, kinda felt like a chore. I began to wonder when it started to feel like that until I came up with answers I'd rather not publicly broadcast. 
          
          Long story short, I feel like I need to take a step back and just focus on my mental health, get my shit together and figure out what I'm doing with my life. Otherwise, I may actually come to despise writing if it continues like this. I really don't want that. Writing is just too important to me. It's helped me out of some pretty tough times. Like I literally wouldn't be here today writing this if it wasn't for it.

Are you still writing Millefleur?
