guys i love y'all dearly. there aren't many of you left, but to those of you who remain, thanks for sticking by me and my subpar fan fiction. i started out as a 14 year old girl who was in love with a couple of guys in a band and now i'll be 18 in a few months and i still love this band. ❤️ i'd be lying if i said i didn't still listen to somewhere new on repeat when i'm feeling down. but no matter how much we try to run from it, life goes on, and people grow out of phases. i'm not saying that i'll never write another fanfic again, because lashton will be my heart and soul until i die, let's be honest. but my life is moving forward. i've got a job that takes up most of my time, a boyfriend that i spend my only free time with, and when school starts again i'll be busy with senior year and prepping for college, so for now, i'm just going to say that all these fics are suspended indefinitely. maybe i'll finish them one day, maybe i won't. writing revolution and the response it received completely changed my life. not only did it make me realize that writing was my passion, but it showed me that everybody goes through rough patches and we're all the same in that way. i wrote revolution after a good friend of mine committed suicide. i was morbidly depressed. but for the first time in years i'm happy, truly happy, and i'm passionate again and i'm righting my wrongs and working hard to create a good life for myself. maybe this sounds dramatic for a fan fiction, but the experience changed the way i saw myself. i believe in myself for maybe the first time ever. to all the people who were there for me when i was 14 and drowning, thank you. from when i was 14 to this day i've saved every sweet comment on revolution/message about it in a folder on my computer. just figured you guys should know that when i say it changed my life i'm not saying that lightly. catch ya on the flip side, guys ❤️

I don’t know if you ever come back here, but I hope that you’re okay. And if you aren’t, don’t give up hope because I bet that you are such a strong person. life sucks and it’s hard and I hate it but you kind of just have to hope that it gets better. best wishes <3

i'm still convinced that there is no reason to rewrite revolution

omg I wrote revolution when I was about 14. I don't think the writing is very good and the plot is thrown together and inconsistent and the characters frequently overlap and blur together and honestly it's just a bit corny sometimes. revolution has a special place in my heart and that's why I decided to rewrite it, because my writing has improved a lot over the past three years. I really liked the general plot line of revolution but I wanted to write something I was proud of, since I can't read revolution without cringing at this point in my life. I'm mostly rewriting it to prove to myself that improvement takes time, and just like I've gotten better since I was 14, I'll get better three more years down the road when I'm 20, and so on and so forth. I know this is probably a super serious response but I've had a number of people say the same thing. but thank you. revolution was a turning point for me (a revolution if you will ha ha ha) as it made me realize that writing was my passion and that it's what I want to do for the rest of my life. so I'm glad you liked it. it means a lot to me❤️❤️
