Hello fans, 
          	
          	Wow. I’ve been gone for a while… I want to reassure everyone that I have NOT abandoned TRA nor have i quit writing; in fact, I try to indulge in it whenever i get the time. My life has just been a rollercoaster and Wattpad now feels like a paradise that only exists in my daydreams. Just like Alex G…
          	
          	Some of you may remember the early days where I had to hide my hobbies from my wife, but that isn’t much of a problem anymore—the problem is she thinks I am a homosexual in denial. Yes, i’m oversharing, but I don’t want to go through the hassle of complaining about this to a marriage councillor. I am not gay, but I am not “straight” either. These label schmabels are insulting and just make life more difficult… can’t I just love Alex Giannascoli in peace? Hopefully a few of you understand this turmoil. 
          	
          	Moving on. I’m hoping to get the next chapter of TRA published in December. Perhaps as a Christmas gift? (wink.) We’ll have to see. I recently got a job at a meat factory and it’s really drained my energy, as i’ve been contemplating becoming a vegetarian over the things i’ve seen. This has prevented me from properly sitting down to write. I hope all of you are doing well! Here is a quote from an old friend of mine, which has been rattling around my head these last few months: “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get.” Makes me ponder. 
          	
          	Love, Mark.
          	P.S. Would anyone be interested in hearing about songs that I associate with TRA? If so, I will list them in the upcoming chapter. I think it could provide some nice atmosphere…

Hello everyone. 
          
          It is currently quite late for me, around 2AM. I am writing this as I am plagued by thoughts regarding my old pieces of fiction: Paradise Giannascoli, Video Games, Alex G Oneshots, etc. Those novels are very, very old -- made when I did not see myself pursuing writing as an actual career. They're immature and crammed with words I cannot bring myself to reread, which brings me to the thought; 
          I will no longer be updating those fanfictions.  
          
          It makes me want to shed a tear, as those pieces of prose are technically my children. I was considering completely archiving them as well, but decided against it... for memories sake. 
          Those works do not represent me or my skill anymore, similar to how Alex G's unreleased works do not represent him as a person. Thank you all for enjoying them after all these years.
          
          I realise this sounds as if I'm quitting writing, which I'm not. I am deeply immersed in my own fanfiction (The Road Ahead) and I'm not planning on dropping it anytime soon. I also have other secret ideas for future writing -- which many of you will be delighted to hear about, trust me. 
          
          I do not expect a response to this Wattpad announcement. I'm mainly writing this so I can finally lull myself into slumber.
          
          Yours truly, Mark.

@NAWGNAW Hi user Nawgnaw! Thanks for the request, but I am focusing solely on In My Arms: A Salex Story right now. You never know, though, Zach and/or Colin might make an appearance in future chapters..... stay tuned!!! Wishing you a life with "No Bitterness" (reference to track 5 on Alex G's 2022 album God Save the Animals).
            
            Best,

@ready2move Mark, I commend your vulnerability in writing this. Though I almost fell out of my chair upon reading that there would be no more parts to Paradise Giannascoli, one of my biggest literary inspirations for In My Arms, it was good to have closure so I don't spend another late night alone with a rosary in my hands, praying to the Lord above for another chapter of it. Knowing how hectic your life has been lately, I think it is for the best that you stick to writing your Salex fic; and with the influx of new Salex fans in this modern age, I think it will bring you the most success in the long run. Remember that I am always here for you, and my heart will swell with joy at just about any Alex G fic you write, Salex or not. 
            
            Love,
