A Heartfelt Note from the Author
Dear readers,
I know I've gone silent. I haven't updated in a while - and I owe you more than just an apology.
The truth is... life has become incredibly difficult lately. I've lost people who meant the world to me. And some of my loved ones are still fighting, holding on, hospitalized... while I try to stay strong for them. I'm trying to manage my home, take care of my family, keep up with my academics, and not lose myself in the middle of it all.
And just when I was gathering the strength to come back to writing - Wattpad had a glitch and wiped away my recent drafts and mid scenes from the chapters. I had to start over. Rebuild from scratch. Again.
The weight of grief, worry, and emotional exhaustion has left me struggling to hold myself together - let alone find the calm and creativity I need to write the stories that live in my heart.
I barely get the time or headspace to sit with my thoughts, let alone turn them into the chapters I want to give you.
Life hasn't given me a moment to breathe freely. I want to write. I crave to return to my characters, to the world I've built with you... but right now, my mind needs a little more time to heal and stabilize.
But I want you to know this: I'm not giving up. I haven't stopped writing. I haven't abandoned the story- it means everything to me. I am working on it quietly, painfully, slowly - but with every bit of love I have.
I know you've been waiting. And I know you didn't sign up for the silence. But please, trust me when I say... I'm trying. I'm trying to hold everything together. And I will be back - with updates, with chapters, with all my heart.
From the deepest part of me I'm truly, truly sorry for the delay. And I hope you'll understand why I needed this time.
With love and a heavy heart,
@thessecretwriter
