A NEW CHAPTER OF TWISTED IS COMING. 
          
          xx, a.

i'm thinking about including a warning at the beginning of the story to let everyone know my intentions. i guess past me figured that the intensity of the story would be enough to portray what i wanted the story to say, but it doesn't seem to be enough. and that's my fault. i'm so sorry if any of the events of the story made you believe something different or believe love is OK in this way. love is an important topic to me, important to my life, but with that being said, the bad parts have to be talked about, too. i'm here if any of you ever need to talk, about love or otherwise.

i promise you, i haven't forgotten aria, vincent, and their story. i think about them at least once a day, but life has me wrapped up in so many things that they will have to wait. their story will see the light of day, in completion, eventually. i just can't give you a promised time frame. i hope you all understand. for those of you that have been waiting around or have been here since the beginning, thank you so much. my heart bleeds to know aria and vince have someone to give them life, to give them reason to exist other than in my own head. thank you. thank you. twisted doesn't exist without you, and the 2015 summer insomniac i was when i created them thanks you deeply. 
          
          that being said, before i go, i just want to address something. i think we all know this app/site is littered with toxic romances. it's a very common troupe in love stories here. twisted is no different. aria and vince's love is not a healthy one, and i've never tried to make you believe otherwise. if it came across that way, it's because it's told from aria's perspective, which can be warped in itself. twisted is an example of how horribly toxic, dependent relationships can badly damage and permanently affect someone. aria is living a very dramatized version of feelings and situations i lived through personally. i've gotten some comments about how "sick" it all is, and it's true. twisted is NOT a love story, but please do be careful with how you approach commenting about it. that can be just as damaging. twisted is a story of humanity, emotions, and how relationships with the people around us shape our lives. please, treat aria with as much respect as possible. her story isn't easy to understand, but its an important one. 
          
          feel free to message me with any questions, comments, etc. 
          and always, always be careful with each other.
          i hope you all are doing well and have something to smile about.

this is for her, for him, their friends, and for you, even if you will never read it. 
          this is for me, too, because i miss her, and she still lives inside me to this day. hell, she was me.
          she will live here now.
          this is where she always truly belonged. 
          my little hurricane and her story. 

I love twisted! Will you be updating it?

continue to twist that knife. 
          and be sure to read the latest chapter of TWISTED!!! 
          oh, and read the author’s note at the end.

THE LEFT BEHINDS

i don’t know why everyone always comes for california simply because her name is california...like, honey, if i gave her a bland ass, boring ass name, it wouldn’t fit her personality or her style. it’s artistic choice. and, also, california is a cute name, with an adorable nickname, so dOn’T cOmE fOr HeR.
