Hello Dearest Readers, 
          	There’s been something I’ve needed to say for a while now, and I’ve put it off, but here it is: I’m going on hiatus, How long? I do not know. I am not thinking about the story very much of late. 
          	The guilt is nearly overwhelming when I get asked about updates. So I am formally letting you know this tree is going dormant. I have been lucky enough to be cast in a community theatre show, which is a long underused part of my creative side. I’m hoping the play, and shaking up my routine in other ways will inspire fresh buds on my writing tree. 
          	I really hope this won’t make anyone upset. I took some time off already to work on my mental health and I’m seeing a lot of positive change, but the writing feel more like an obligation than a joy. So I need reset. I love you all so much, and I’m so grateful for you. 
          	I’ll see you when I see you,
          	Miss Measured

The Stars on the Staircase has 200k clicks today! I am overwhelmed. I am overjoyed. I am so proud of myself for being brave enough to start posting it. For writing down what I thought was self-centered fantasies. Thank you to every reader. I love you all more than you know.

Since I don’t currently have a backlog of written chapters, after this week’s post I’m going to take some time off to get caught up, I hope you all will understand. Also today’s chapter is delayed as I am at my inlaws for lunch and have wait to finish editing. Alas, real life is interrupting my normal schedule.
          
          I still hope to post today.

@missmeasured Take as much time off as you need

As a Christmas Present, I’ve published one very short chapter today, I’ve got another short one to post tomorrow and then on the 25th Santa can come and  leave some newly mated Severus and Madelyn cuteness under your tree.

Today I have dropped the first seven parts of my new long fic Belonging! Check it out if you haven’t yet. It is still a reader insert but I had to give her a name because I switch POV every chapter and I can’t hide behind the first person like in SOTS. 
          
          It’s more of a slow burn at first but once that mating bond has snapped… well you just wait and see. 
          
          Chapter updates will come every so often, I’m not committing to a posting schedule right now. Let me know what you think!

@SamanthaFo86 Yessss! Glad to have you along for the ride!

Hello Dearest Readers!,
          The Stars on the Staircase is now complete! If you were waiting for the fic to be finished it is now time to READ her :D 
          I posted earlier today and the app seems to be glitchy. I am getting some views and comments but when I try to see the chapter on my phone app it does not appear :( Hopefully I will not have to take it down and re-upload. 
          
          I have three or so bonus chapters on A03 already for Stars on the Staircase and I will publish them in my feed here at some point. I may also post my original ending but it needs some touching up. 
          
          Thank you so much for reading my story and I hope you will check out my other works, my new work, and visit me on tumblr to say hi.
          
          Love you all
          Miss Measured

This was my first experience with fanfic and I am so devastated that I’ll never be able to read SOTS for the first time again. It was truly so good!

@SamanthaFo86 Oh my goodness, be getting to be your first! I am flattered you enjoyed it! I envisioned this story for years and couldn’t find anything out there that tickled me. So I wrote it! I’m grateful for finding a new reader! ❤️

I’ve loved your writing during all of the chapters so far, so I really don’t think you could disappoint me lol. I’ve actually taken a break on reading the book just so that way I can wait until it’s finished lol because if I sit there and finish what chapters I haven’t read on the book that’s not finished, it’ll just eat at me. Lol but so far I love it and I really do hope that you finish it Someday! This is one of my favorite Snape fanfiction books! 

missmeasured

Thank you so much! I’m working on the final chapters actively so I think it will all be finished and ready for you to pick it up by the end of summer hopefully!  Thank you again, you’re very sweet!

Hello everyone,
          
          Just hopping in to say thank you for all the lovely comments!
          
          As far as updating The Stars on the Staircase goes, I’m struggling this year so far with my anxiety levels and it’s really eating my creativity. I have drafts, but I’m sitting with them for now. 
          
          I have not abandoned it or anything, just trying to nourish my creativity tree so it will bloom again. Its coming to me little by little. 
          
          When I started I never imagined writing more than ten chapters, and never could imagine I would reach this many readers. I am so scared to disappoint you all, so I’m not rushing to post something mediocre. 
          
          I read every comment and I appreciate you all so much!
