I started writing Steel and Silk back in 2025 and somehow made it through 40+ chapters, over 240,000 words, and three entire seasons of The Rookie, which is honestly insane to me.
I also learned that Google Docs apparently does have limits because this story got so big that I had to create an entirely new document just to keep writing.
And before anyone panics, no I am not deleting or abandoning this book.
I’m doing something slightly worse.
I’m putting it on hiatus.
With college starting back up, I just don’t have the mental energy to balance school while figuring out where I want to take Rosy, Tim, and everyone else next. I’d rather take a break than force myself to write chapters I’m not happy with.
The story will stay up, and I absolutely plan on continuing it. Hopefully winter break, spring break, or whatever free time college decides to give me will bring back the obsession.
I also have other fanfics sitting in my Docs, including The Vampire Diaries, Marvel/Avengers with my Supergirl storyline, and Supernatural, so maybe I’ll finally have another epiphany and actually upload those too instead of letting them collect dust.
But thank you to everyone who read my story.
