Hey everyone, in case you come here wondering where the stories went, I've unpublished them. I'm sorry if you were looking forward to more parts, but I won't be publishing X Readers anymore. I understand this may come as a shock, but I promise it's for the best. I doubt much will come from this account in the future.
Thank you for all of your kind words over the years, they meant a lot to me. I wish you all the best!
I contemplated explaining why I've done this, and decided... why not :p
I encourage you to hear me out as I struggle to give an emotionally! honest! response!:
I was raised Christian, but struggled through my teens and early adulthood. Recently, after going back into the Bible through a Theology course, I've decided to really try putting God first in my life again. In the back of my mind, these X Readers have always been a "guilty pleasure" sort of thing. I felt ashamed for having written them, but also proud, because of how successful they were. Don't get me wrong, I am "proud" of myself for what I was able to accomplish in a purely artistic sense (writing ability, art, etc), but the subject matter was... questionable at best lol
I justified myself by thinking, "other people write these, it's fine" and "well, I'm not 100% sure about religion, so it's OK, and it's not hurting anyone..."
But deep down I knew what I was doing was wrong, so I've unpublished them.
Please understand I'm not here to shame anyone else, but this is what's best for me, and I don't want to inspire others to do this any more than I already have.
I'm also diagnosed with OCD, and these books haunted me, so it's nice to know they're gone.
So yeah, thanks for reading that, it was hard to write but I'm not gonna labor over this post for too long and I feel as though that's enough lol. I don't wanna preach! But if you wish to talk to me more, feel free to send me a message, thanks once more and I am sorry that they won't be continued. Trust me, it hurts me to give this up too
✌️
