TW - Baby Loss

Yall are the first to know because OBVIOUSLY i wouldn’t be where i am without you and your support ♥️

It’s good news and bad news, I’m afraid….

But!

As of Monday, OoLF will be taken off of Tumblr and Wattpad because… it’s being published!!

OoLF will be my second book out in the world (thanks to you guys and your constant support!!) and I’m so freaking excited to share these characters (some change, some stay the same) and the new chapters I’ve written and the old ones I’ve tweaked.

I wanted to give you a heads up before i took it down.

Just popping on to remind you that i love you and i think about you all constantly 🫶🏻

i know the world is scary right now. I know a lot of us feel helpless, angry, lost, terrified, and so much more. I wish i could come on here and preach some inspiring, life-changing advice. But I’m coming up blank on a lot of things.

I genuinely do not know or understand how people wanted this. I do not understand how people voted for this. How people cheer and praise for this. How people see videos and pictures of families being ripped apart and feel anything other than the kind of anguish that physically feels like a punch to the chest.

I feel betrayed by the people in my life that voted for this. The people who were supposed to love me unconditionally who abandoned all sense of their humanity for… what? bigotry? Hatred? Anger?

I’m angry at people who promised to love my husband as their own and broke it for a man who cares about nothing more than lining his own pockets?

My heart aches for the men, women, and children of Palestine. And Congo. And Sudan.

I’m grateful for the people who consistently show up to fight. To resist. To show the world that love will always trump hate. I’m grateful to the people who are hanging onto their humanity with an iron fist. To the people who listen and learn when presented with challenging views instead of disregarding for the sake of their ego.

I’m thankful for you guys. Because the world is scary, but i see your posts, i see your resistance, i see your love, and it feels a little less intimidating.

I see you. I hear you. I love you.

Keep being a little beacon of light in the storm. Keep resisting. Keep speaking up. Keep loving and spreading joy.

Keep fighting.

And most importantly…

I need help

I need an illustrator. Someone who can do something like the style below. Detailed/watercolorish style. Or whatever this particular style is… idk hahaha

how are you all?? I miss this so much ngl 😭

ive gotten a ton of questions on my author instagram and TikTok about coming back here to write and the truth is, idk. I think for awhile i thought i was done but the desire does arise every once in awhile, but i truthfully dont know!

the door isn’t completely closed, I’m just not reaching for it rn. Ya know?

I've been sitting here staring at my computer for the longest time trying to figure out exactly what to say. I've been trying to find the words to accurately portray just what you guys mean to me and just how thankful I am for each and every one of you, and I just keep coming up blank. Or maybe it's the tears making it hard to see the screen. Idk. 🙃 (but it's probably the latter)

I think you guys saw this coming way before I did and I'm sorry for leaving you in the dark for so long while I figured out exactly what was next for me. And as difficult as it has been for me to come to this decision... I think my days of fanfic have come to an end.

As some of you know, my debut novel was released on January 16th and since then, my focus has been pulled toward writing book two in the series and I just don't have the mental capacity to do both. I'm so incredibly sorry for that.

I will never EVER be able to express just how much you all mean to me. I will never be able to thank you for giving me the courage to write, for giving me feedback, and for sending me so much love and advice. There are so many things that I'm thankful for when it comes to my writing journey, but at the top of the list, it will always be YOU.

I am where I am in this journey because each and every one of you gave me the confidence to pursue this passion. I hope you know that I'm eternally grateful!!!

I do think now that I've gotten this weight off of my chest, I'll feel better about being on tumblr lmfao i've been feeling guilty about logging on and not having answers about where i am with writing... so please know this definitely isn't goodbye. I love you guys too much for that! But as for writing on this account, I don't think we'll be seeing anything else from me.

It's such a bittersweet feeling and I hope you guys can understand where I'm coming from!

Tumblr will always hold a special place in my heart. Ya'll got me through such a hard time in my life and it means the world.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love you so so much.
