Hello :)
          	
          	I'd like to post two announcements here, for anyone interested: 
          	
          	(1) My official website is now live, and I'll be posting the link shortly in my book as well as on this page. This website will be my primary page for any and all life, love, and lit updates, including a blog -
          	
          	(2) I will keep my Wattpad page as a home for WIFV. It was originally my goal to do a deep edit and re-publish the story as a free e-book on multiple platforms, just to make it as accessible as possible and wrap it in ribbon. 
          	
          	However, after putting a lot of time and thought into reading it through, I realize that a deep edit for me would involve rewriting a lot of the story. I no longer have the angsty teenaged mindset that I (quite obviously) had back then, and I don't think it would ever be the same story if I tried to re-write it now. Although I would like to acknowledge that it has many elements in it that I would never advocate for as an adult writer (like a lot of anger, pettiness, bullying, and underaged drinking), I want to give my younger, inexperienced self a mental hug and let this story serve, as I've said many times before, as a "time capsule." It is young, and dramatic, and a little overdone. Cheesy, to be sure. But it is what it is for a reason. And so I hope it is alright if I can keep it here with all of you.
          	
          	I am wishing you all lots of joy and good reads! And while I will be checking Wattpad intermittently, I highly recommend reaching out by email (available on my website) if you ever want to chat! 
          	
          	Love,
          	S

          Hello dear! I wanted to give you a shout out! :) This isn't about me. Let's celebrate! :D 
          
          You've been working hard at your full-time job, and the commute has been draining. Your writing is incredible! There's so much emotion within each chapter and description of relationships (in Callafornia Dreamin' it was a romantic relationship). You're kind and thoughtful! Thank you for all your dedication! :D <3

Greetings in the New Year!!
          
          I've just finished a little literary snack (featuring a glorious cover by one of my all time favorites on here - BornToWrite47) for anyone looking for a quick, cute read!
          
          Also - just wanted to let you all know I'm pushing myself to make more time for writing. I spend most of my long (and I mean LONG) commutes to and from work developing plots and record potential quotes on my phone; I think of stories before I drift off to sleep; I find songs on the radio and mentally organize them into story soundtracks. I am constantly filling notebooks with ideas and y'know what?! I'm tired! Enough is enough - it's time to get these puppies down. So please, help yourself to a chapter! :) Enjoy, comment, share. And I will work on the next batch as soon as I can! 
          
          *Please see my bio on my page for more info about where else you can find me/follow me for updates!* :)
          
          Wishing you all the best! 
          Happy reading and writing!
          
          xoxo

Hi darling, sorry to bother. I clicked today on Sweetheart and I couldn't read anything because the pages were blank. Is it a glitch or did you delete it? I sure hope not because those short stories are simply amazing and kept me very entertained during my bus rides (I may have read them all over fifty times). But if you did delete it, can I ask why? Best of luck!

While it is absolutely heartbreaking because I was in love with those stories, I completely understand. As writers it is very important to keep improving and if you saw that doing so with a fresh start is the way to go, then by all means I'm with you. However, I really hope you realize that your old writings weren't bad at all; I loved every bit of Sweetheart. With all of that being said, I can't wait for more works from you!

            Oh, it's never a bother! I am, however, the one who is sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I've been updating my sites and making many changes lately, and part of those changes included taking Sweetheart down. Though I thought I had left it unpublished, I cannot find it anywhere in my works now that I've checked again. I've decided to move forward with other stories I have in mind, and it's difficult to do that with all of my older work on the same page. I'm sorry you were looking forward to reading it again :( I hadn't thought people were still reading these; truthfully, they embarrass me a bit with how "young" my writing and older work is. I feel like I've grown so much and want to showcase that, and so I'm trying to start fresh. I hope you can forgive me and give future work a chance!

Finally hacked back into my old account after being AWOL. Oh, how I've missed you so. Wattpad, I'm home. I will be going through a lot of changes on here in the next couple weeks, hoping to finally organize and reorganize my page and get rolling on new and revamped stories. (In my absence I've collected notebooks of storylines, and hope to get an entire series going within the next year.) 
          
          So so good to be back!
