Long time, no see, guys! How have y'all been? I'm dropping by to talk about what's happening with my stories (to those still awaiting updates). I'm still working on "Born from the Shards" and "Starry Wonders: Dreams of the Past" (btw, can't believe it's been 7-10 months since I last updated, smfh). Those two stories are kicking my butt, but I'm finally starting to get some motivation to work on them again. Hopefully I can have those updated soon!
          	
          	I'm currently focusing on the Starry Wonders rewrite and am in the process of reading the story in its entirety for the first time, taking notes and all for revision. (And oh boy, what an experience that has been.) This will be a *complete* rewrite of the story with new scenes and details. So, while it is the same story, it will be a bit of a different experience for those reading it again. ;)
          	
          	And can I just say how grateful I am to those of you who read SW? Because whew chile, these chapters are a dumpster fire and it's insane how my writing style has changed after four years. (Yes, SW came out four years ago! I feel ridiculously old just thinking about it.) It's been a slog to get through because of the amount of cringe I'm experiencing. But I'm getting through it. Slowly but surely. Wish me luck, guys.
          	
          	Anyways, thank you to those who have read any of my stories. I'm incredibly grateful, and I hope that you enjoy what else I have coming. If I can inspire just one person with my stories, I will have achieved my goal as a writer. Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

@Daydayskid Hey there! Hope you're doing well, too. ❤️ And thank you so much for the feedback! I've been working on figuring out what aspects of the story to alter or improve upon, so this is really helpful in seeing what others want to read. Michael being child-like and sweet is one of my favorite aspects of the story, as well, so I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope the rewrite meets your expectations! ❤️❤️❤️

@zan8901 it’s all good. i gotchu. totally understandable concerning both stories. you put so much effort into world-building and crafting the voice of each of your characters (which i LOVE), so ik however you choose to move with BFTS, it’ll be a fantastic read. 
            
            also, idk if you’re into “twilight,” but my newest book “descent” is in that lane. *the eyes* it’s my first stab at a supernatural michael story. mythical creatures—allat. i won’t be giving it priority until the fall, but if you’re interested, check out the preliminaries whenever you’re free! i’d love to know your thoughts girlie! i’m actively working on a new “legend” update too. <33
            
            i’m still waiting on that massive response you’d drafted for me on that story in your notes too!! ☠️

@THEKIMPRINT I miss 'em too.  We're literally so close to a reunion I'm getting impatient, lol. I have to tell myself to slow down writing sometimes 'cause I'm tempted to just zoom on ahead, which would be detrimental to the story/characters. UM, so the thing with BFTS is...I'm rewriting it again  Lord have mercy, that story has gone through so many rewrites atp, but I think I've got a better idea of what I'm tryna do with it now. Hope to have updates out soon, but not sure when at this point. I'm sorry, girl

@Feather144 It is not disappointing!  Your writing style puts me in mind of Toni Morrison!

I've published a new story called "Born from the Shards". It's a rewrite of a past story I had back in late 2018 that a few of you may remember. Hope y'all enjoy! And thank you for the love and support. <3 
          
          For my Starry Wonders readers, I hope to have the first official chapter of Starry Wonders: Dreams of the Past out soon. I need to do some more editing but it should be out some time this week. Thank you. <3
