Hey
It’s been a hot minute, hasn’t it?
Normally I like to start these posts of with some kind of funny statement or joke, but unfortunately that’s not the case this time around. And that’s because, as much as I hate to say it, I’m going to leave this account.
No, I’m not joking this time. I’ve been thinking about this for a very long time, and for my sake, I think it’s best that I finally leave. I was only twelve when I started this account to share my silly little stories with you all, but I’m seventeen now, and in all honesty, I’ve simply outgrown this phase of my life and I think it’s best for my own mental health if I distance myself from this account.
I’d like to clarify that I’m not deleting the account. I know how much my shitty little stories (Never Really Gone in particular, as much as I hate it) mean a lot to so many people, and so I’m going to keep some of them up, but I’m going to stop posting on this account from now on.
I’ve met so many wonderful people through Wattpad (you know who you are) and I’m so incredibly grateful to have shared my writing with you all. For 4 years this account brought me so much joy and comfort, and that will always mean the world to me.
I feel like it’s worth mentioning that I’m not disappearing entirely. I’m still very active on twitter (my username is @/starlit_voids, sorry for the shameless self plug) and semi-active on AO3. I don’t intend on quitting writing or the Hermitcraft fandom any time soon, it’s just that this account is very reflective of my younger self in a way that I’m not comfortable with.
So I guess what I’m trying to say is thank you. Thank you for your kind words, for making me laugh, and for getting me through some of the worst times of my life. I could keep writing forever about all the things I’m grateful for, but the character limit is getting alarmingly short and I think I might cry if I keep going.
So, for the last time, thank you all for reading
