hi,
          
          I'm just popping in to say that now I'm rebooting my story I would REALLY appreciate it if the CH fandom and proshippers didn't interact with me or my works. I'm aware that the fandom my story originated from and the CH fandom overlap incredibly heavily, but if you're heavily involved in that fandom I'd prefer you stay away for my sake.
          
          thanks.

hello,
          
          so, it's been a while since I've posted anything here at all. it's a new season now ; it's almost been a full year since I took a writing hiatus, I'm about to be 18, and I'm in my final year of school.
          
          I was hoping that at some point I'd return to writing, and maybe I will! I've had a really good summer; lots of self improvement and reflection and growth and ideas. I hope I'll be able to share them with you all.
          
          how's your guys summer been?? I hope you're doing good.

You should talk to me B)

update; im firmly convinced this fanfic has put a curse on me.
          
          ever since i read it, nothinf has been going good in my life.
          i absolutely saturated my bed and comfort plushie in milk when i was having a drink before bed, my charger is fucking up, my ipad is broken anf i have been suffering greatly from fatigue and nightmares about the fic.
          
          i believe wholly that God is punishing me and i do not know how i should go ahout my repentance. help.

this update is not about my story but just a random thing. so yesterday i finally read the infamous milk fic and i hsve not been able to stop pondering my orb about it. it is such a profoundly disturbing thing.
          
          i read it initially because i thought it was overexaggerated how bad it was, like i thought it was exaggerated for the meme but they were right. holy shit. since my expectations were low i was absolutely not prepared to read what i did. 
          
          this is kinda light-hearted, it actually did disturb me and made me feel legitimately kinda ill but whatever  part of the bandom experience i guess
          
          i dont recommend it unless you're looking for a reason to kys 

hi!
          
          this is a final post to say that from September 15th 2023, Solar Colony will be indefinitely be taken offline. there are a multitude of reasons for this that i will list now.
          
          1) loss of passion
          
          my ocs are something i hold very dear to me and probably always will, but having had these characters since i was 12 years old, i think its safe to say ive outgrown then a bit. i dont think theyre "bad" or "cringe", per se, bur i just have other interests now and it's just how things naturally peogress. my ocs are always something ill fall back on for comfort but for now, the interest isnt there. im sure it will come back sometime.
          
          2) school
          
          as school's been back, it's been absolutely taking everything out of me. 6th form is a hell of a lot more difficult to GCSE years and it takes up so so much of my time. with that being said, all the drive for writing and world building i had in previous years has been crushed by the need to get the vest grades i can. it sucks but, thats just how things go.
          
          3) creative block
          
          idk if this is due to school; but i cannot seem to get myself to produce anything of value, writing or art, especially around my ocs. my main special interest is My Chemical Romance and when i do have the time and energy to draw, I usually draw something to do with MCR for comfort and happiness. this isnt to say my ocs dont make me happy; but MCR is all i feel like creating stuff for rn.
          
          i know i said id give a weeks warning, but, i lied. im not an idiot, and i know none of you actually care enough to read it, nothing harsh or salty, its just the truth. theres nothjng wrong with that, and im not blaming you, but what's the point in pretending like i have a fan base when i dont?
          whatever. with that being said, in about 24hours Solar Colony will be coming offline indefinitely. i do not know if - or when - it will be back up, but you'll be the first to know.
          
          that's all!

Hi everyone, update and potential hiatus
          
          So. School is starting for me in about 12 hours, and as you’re aware I haven’t made any updates. Now, I’ve been considering this for a while now but I think I’m going to unpublish Solar Colony for a bit until I find the time and willpower to continue with regular updates and all that jazz. I have a levels this year; yep, ya boy got into 6th form lol, and if you know anything about a levels you know they’re hella time consuming. However I haven’t experienced them yet so I could manage to make time for my story if I keep on top of my work. For now it’s tbc. 
          Now, I’ll be keeping my book up until I know for sure whether or not updates will continue. I know I’ve left it alone for the whole summer but I wasn’t 100% sure if I was even gonna update or not so that’s why it remained up.
          I’ll give you all a heads up about a week before I unpublish it, just incase you wanna read any parts you missed out on. I’m fully aware no one cares but yk, I like to imagine the thing I’ve dedicated 4 years of my life to means something to someone else somewhere in the world.
          
          That’s all, have a good day.

despite this, in regards to when I'll be updating, the answer is still a definitive "I don't know". I'm a kid, I'm sixteen, and I'm going into my penultimate year of grammar school in September.
          
          I start my a levels this year, and they're all subjects that require a lot of essays and/or coursework. now, that's not to say I'll be completely offline, because I can't tell you how much homework I'll get and how much time I'll have on my hands. I also really want to get a job soon because I'm still unemployed.
          
          I started this story when I was twelve and had a lot more time on my hands. now that I'm becoming a young adult, I don't have the same time I had when I was still a young kid, and I can't apologize for that because it's completely out of my control.
          
          anyways, I think that's all. if anything springs to mind I'll make another post. but as for now, peace out.

hi everyone.
          
          so, school starts in two weeks and the only updates I've made to my story have been proofreads. in all honesty, I don't really feel an apology is necessary.
          
          this story is a passion project, something I've spent years of my life working on, and I'm sick and tired of giving apologies for things I want to or haven't been able to do. I wanted to give myself a break this summer, so I did. and I haven't updated anything new to my story.
          
          but I'm not sorry. also, nothing personal but sometimes I don't see a point in updating when the only person that reads my story is my friend who I could really just tell the story too. not trying to guilt trip, bit I'm just saying it's pretty disheartening to have basically nobody care.
          
          besides, I hope y'all have has a better summer than I have. it's sucked absolute asshole, but oh well, what can you do lol.
          
          see you all eventually.

Hey guys, I just proofread my story, apologies for the random updates if you got them lol
